Wait for it....I'm sure this will be touted as hindsight, melting, negativity etc when actually it has been obvious to some since several weeks before the window shut and is already showing up.

Or maybe just maybe, most of us ALSO knew where we were short but didn't act like spoilt Brats by repeating it 1000 times a day and come out with a ner ner ner ner ner, I told you so every time we lose.
 
If you believe F365, those wankstains did us over off the pitch as well, post game.

Find that impossible to believe. Anyone?

No chance.

Goon mate of mine says they were kept back for ages, came out to the old bill letting off CS gas, then got surrounded by plod again. They then got escorted all the way back to Seven Sisters while mobs of Spurs kept going at them. It took them well over an hour to gt to SS station with a fucking escort.

He was bricking it.

So, what do you want us to do? Fall at your feet in deference...
 
who or what we didn't sign in the summer is by the by."We" can't change that till January.
What "we" could have done last night was put out a first choice 11.
If it had all gone to plan,we could have made changes later.
As for letting it go, I can't or wont for a good while.We threw a chance to stop them in a cup tournament. by stupid or arrogant team selection.
 
Just watched the game again in cold light of day & without beer goggles on. We actually weren't that bad. Poor defending & a weak wrist from Vorm for the first (should never have picked him over Hugo- big mistake) & when does Flamini score two in a match- his second, he will never hit a better volley? We should have kept jan & Toby as our CB's. It wasn't the time to put in the second string- big mistake. However, we were the better team for the most part. It doesn't excuse the big mistakes & if anything makes it more frustrating that the manager misjudged his team selection like that. That game was so winnable & today would have been far prettier had we torn them one. Let's hope the Gods are smiling on us against Citeh. Because having rested players for the weekend, there are few excuses for losing. Otherwise there was no point in resting anyone last night. So frustrating that they are in the next round of the cup. We would have done them if poch had played his cards right instead of twisting on 19 & getting Fazio & Vorm...a pair of jokers.
 
Why all this out-pouring of hatred for Fazio?
I'd be more concerned that we don't have suitable back-up for Hugo.
p.s. take a look at Trippier's performance...check out his pass completion rate...clue: it was worse than Fazio's.

People who days ago were lauding the depth of squad, now throwing hissy fits over the line up.

Looks like "the majority" have now decided that it is actually ok to have doubts about Poch.

Hows that for hindsight...

Basically - because he was Shit.. Nothing more nothing less.

I don't usually jump on players backs but last night he was shocking, the bloke can't even make a simple 10 yard pass.. His half arsed clearances are a joke and he should not be a Spurs player.

I'd imagine that those people mean't that the odd injury we would be well covered to bring one or two players in as a replacement. last night there were 8 changes even a Twat like you should be able to notice the difference.

Well, personally I don't dislike the guy. I think he put in some half decent performances last year. But he's not a top half of the table player IMO.

See this is the sort of attitue I don't get. Vorm isn't a bad keeper. He's just not world class like Hugo, and the fact is that people have been treated so well with Lloris that they don't know anything different anymore.

A keeper is also often as good as those who play immediately in front.

He's bare had any games in his new side. Wouldn't be too harsh on the lad at this stage.

People Can criticise without converting to "Sammyism". A squad is just that. You have a first choice XI with Players who can come in & replace a tired/injured/out of form player. You don't change your whole defence in a match against the scum. That one is squarely down to Poch. He got it very wrong. Does it make you happy that folk are criticising him for last night? You seemed quite upbeat on Sunday. If it all goes horribly wrong this season, I for one will be very sad rather than your apparent stance- jumping for joy because you can tell everyone on a forum that you were right & they were wrong. If Poch gets the boot off the back of a poor season, then we are back to square one. New manager. Not much money to spend. Sell to buy policy or develop academy players under enic-like it or lump it, that's the way we are run. Do you really want to go through all that again? I'm not alone in thinking another manager in will just perpetuate the problem.
