Match Spurs v Villa Sunday 26 Nov 2pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Some lovely play and good to see such a positive attack despite the makeshift team. I’ll be optimistic and say their late goal will help remind us to stay on the front foot.

They couldn’t handle us and resorted to sticking the boot in. If we keep up the pressure and if the ref does his job, one of them will be off soon. Please, no more injuries though.
 
Been better than expected but have had chances to get more. Always was going to be at risk of conceding from set pieces and like the disallowed goal from the high line. We really must take what chances we get as we are in real danger of conceding again.

Some of you are fragile as fuck. It’s 1-1 at half when we’ve looked positive and it’s all “we are cursed/doomed”

It's nothing to do with being fragile - it's ludicrously bad luck to have this number of our best players injured, then also to have totally outplayed the opposition, missed so many chances, and conceded an equaliser just a few seconds before half-time. Yes of course that should have been avoided, but we do often seem to have accumulations of unfortunate events that just don't happen to other clubs.

And when we do have some luck, it's always undone and then some... After the Liverpool game, my wife said to me "I bet you'll have a game soon when you'll get 3 players sent off" - actually it was worse, 2 off but also 2 long-term injured. These crazy things just don't happen to other clubs.

We cannot lose another game from a winning position today, we need to keep our heads. Get in and around Cash and any contact go down agonized get him sent off.
He shouldnt even be on the pitch and it was him who won the free kick for the goal with a dive.
Take our chances and keep playing like the first half, use the injustice and don't feel sorry for ourselves
 
Still despite this period of hell, it is really encouraging to see a makeshift 2nd string play a good team completely off the pitch .
Villa looking like Fulham

Bodes well for a fully fit squad and some more additions in the winter window , and summer
