Match *** Tottenham Hotspur v Fulham Sunday 1st Dec 1:30 GMT ****

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I think every team would struggle if their so called defensive 1st team pairing were both absent, not that ours have been so good anyway.

Up top we are average in terms of any trio we can offer in my opinion, and Richarlison's never readiness cripples us.

Midfield lacks a proper DM.

Result - your analysis.

Yeah I was saying this to mates prematch. It completely fucks us.

But we all knew this in the summer. We all said on here that the attack wasn’t good enough. It’s why I predicted eighth.
 
1882 is a wally, why would you post that.

I refuse to believe anyone gets that emotional and writes something like that on a forum purely out of anger, it's contrived.
 
In terms of total days missed we were 6th, that's what I recalled from the article. But yeah fair enough re us having more players miss 1+ game. Mea culpa.

At the end of the day, injuries are part & parcel of the game, gotta find a way to deal with it. Which would be easier if our chairman and his gang knew their job.

Agree. But to be fair to Ange (and I know most don't want to be right now :D ) he was left short in Summer and now has a genuine crisis on his hands which is only going to be exacerbated by the schedule this month.

I am resigned to us crashing out of the League Cup and EFL now. We'd need a full squad to compete with the schedule and we just don't.
 
The FULL squad is just about good enough for us to reasonably expect to compete for Top 4 and a cup run.

We are playing with HALF a squad and paying the price for only signing one first teamer in summer.

The same people who rightly moan about the latter somehow believe we should be smashing everyone while half our first team is injured.🤷‍♂️

Our best 3 players for us were not our first choice players
 
Concern is we lost 5 of 11 actually playing good football and having the 2nd best GD in the league. If the performance level drops, as it did massively today and 2nd half Roma, hard to see us even sniffing top 6.
 
Well that was a kick in the cojones . On the bright side I am home and going to have a cup of tea and a slice of cake . Hopefully in January Levy signs 2 or 3 players who have gone through puberty , i won’t hold my breath
 
The thing I least liked about Spurs performance was seeing how much of a problem Iowbi was for the defense. Not a bad player at all, but he looked like a lot more than he is since we couldn't seem to defend him or prevent the ball from coming to him in good positions. Often, when you see a team losing a particular match up they go in at the half, sort it out and things improve. That just never happened.
 
I didn't say anything about racism, just agreeing with the state of our once long gone football club.
Surely people can vent their frustration regarding our dog shit they continue to be.
Frustration coming out because of how bad this club has become, results and performances have been largely poor
Mate I have not agreed with that comment, only how bad the team continue to be, that's what matters to spurs fans doesn't it.
You don't or never will get to tell me what i can and can't do, you should be going back at that poster not me.
Ask the person who posted it
You're a proper cunt. Total wanker.
