The sad thing is, we all saw it coming. We’ve been let down so many times by Tottenham that we can tell these games are going to unfold.

We dont look anywhere near a team capable of challenging for honours. It’s the same events as always, regardless of the manager.

Ipswich are out matched in terms of talent, but the coach isn't bad. And Liam Diap is the sort who seems to always be around the ball and adds value. He's not going to be a huge star, but he would be useful on most teams. None of that negates the idea that Spurs should have had an easy go of it today.

Beaten by a less talented but harder working team today!

Sickening!

Eh. This has been the story since Redknapp left, at least. Doesn't matter who the manager is or who is in the squad. The mentality is broken, weak, accepting of poor performances. Incapable of getting a result if a result is truly needed.

Ho-hum, shit happens, eh mate?

Club needs a culture transplant. Can't buy that in January nor June.

I'm not really sure what, where or how this pervasive culture thing is supposed to manifest or live. If it exists, what causes it? Where is is it? How is it transmitted? But most importantly: What can be done about it?

I thought Ange was supposed to help with it. An all-or-nothing mindset, a strong character who got respect. But looks like he doesn't have the elite manager skillset to win games.

Personally, I blame a bit of everything. But mostly I blame that twat signing BJ and Werner (twice). I like them, but they aren't top 4 quality at all. Your team is all about goals and it must be soul destroying to see those two fucking shit up on a daily basis.

Imagine putting your body on the line over and over, trying to keep the oppo out, then showing a bit of class and playing out from the back into channels to create a counter, only to see BJ take 3 touches where it had to be first time, or Werner have a shot while he's practically on a sun lounger, sending it into space. What's the fucking point?

We've got the makings of a good team, but we need to be ruthless and upgrade a few of the ones bringing us down.
