Struggling to see his bigger picture with terrible displays like this.
You cant play 5 at the back with 2 holding midfeilders and get rippied apart like that.
Also if your playing 5 at the back with 2 holding midfielders let the full backs bomb forward and hit diagnals in the channels.
Richarlison is absolutley terrible with his back to goal and we should no way be using him as an outlet for long balls.
Odobert looked like a kid out there.
Frank really hasnt done himself any favours here at all, got it completly wrong as he has done a few times now.
The players were shit aswell diving in like fucking lunatics for a couple of the goals when needed cool heads

Yeah.... If it was Ange... It would have been about 8-0
Xavi is young,been successful and willl see Tottenham as a massive opportunity to build something. I think there will be backing from the club but I’d rather see that with someone who can change the whole culture and bring something we want to watch.
I’ve struggled this year to enjoy any part of how we play. City and Leeds away were great days out but only Burnley at home was decent but that was it. We are 18 games in and there’s no excitement in how we play. It’s just utterly boring.
Go get a manager that has a real style that we want to see and back him or we will always be the nearly big club.
What we will do is keep Thomas Frank and it will become so toxic that the place will be unbearable. As I’ve said before I like Frank and seems a genuinely decent guy but he’s not what we need.
Just don’t try it. This is all yours we aren’t that last season rubbish from you

this and the chelsea games have put him in heat and rightly so! AGAIN with the fucking bentancur and palhinha! teams are loving it when we go into games with this! they know we are going to have fuck all! another pathetic XG! on top of that you have a front line that has no guile!
richarlison, kudus and odobert...what do you think thats going to do? you can put KDB and zidane behind that and its still an uphill challenge, never mind bentancur and pal!
needs to be brave and start getting gray and bergvall out there more, this current shit isnt working and it never will, that was obvious long before today!

We also had Solanke, Kulusevski, Son and Maddison in the team. We have absolute poverty in attack at the moment.
Fringe players last season like Odobert and Richarlison are now in the first XI because we have no other options.
Should have known in my kip its the eve of a NLD the radio alarm goes on and on comes “ I Got You Babe”!!!!
FFS its “Ground Hog Day”
Will have a chat with “Punxsutawney Phil” to see how long the wee fella thinks this could go on for…..

Who are you buying that's better than Vicario? And what are you paying?
I mean he's right tbf.
Oh ffs, he's not just said that.
Don't like that at all. Hiding behind last season which was a complete anomaly.
I don't blame him for losing. I expected to lose against Arse away (even with our excellent away form).
I do blame him for playing 5 at the back for the first time in a match this season against Woolwich (unless I'm mistaken)?
It's one thing to be adaptive. It's another thing to be so terrified that you spring a new formation on players during arguably their most difficult game of this entire season (past and whole).
Let's see if he learns. But he hasn't learned so far. If anything, he's regressed (in terms of being overly defensive vs what the day calls for).

We also had Dragusin and Davies at centre back and no defensive midfielders
Changing managers now won't change anything in the short term , who do we bring in that's really a guaranteed better solution .
If the owners show some intent to change the way we do business then we start getting better results and slowly the ship can turn .
No easy solve .

It might be damned if you do, damned if you don’t, but Frank needs to be willing to take the handbrake off.
Our record when we set up defensively is not good.

He could of played Tel over Richarlison. Not that it would of changed result but still.
I would of, Richarlison is a poor CF.
Just can't take this thread seriously, when so many children are throwing toys...
It's embarrassing.

I think he's speaking bullshit personally, cowards way out of hiding behind that excuse especially after such a result, it's the first time we've heard it this season, why hasn't he said this before?
