Dier is a worry but assuming reasonable form - I'd agree.Gio + Dier + Winks/Gedson
If they had won today they would be above us. They are not a bad team at all.Are the relegation fodder? They were a poor reuslt away from being a Europa League team not long ago and could have been what 6th/7th withna win today?
We could have got 3 points out of that one if we were more ruthless with our passing and chances though yes agreed.
Ndombele was dogshit today and anyone who doesnt think it was the correct decision to hook him at HT is deluded.
Fast turning into a flop
If we had a fully fit squad we'd have loads more too.Since he took charge in November, Spurs have picked up 27 points in the Premier League.
Only Liverpool and Manchester City have earned more.
That is fucking damning on the pl as we have been shit for pretty much every game except first half vs whu and the Burnley 5 nil rout
Doesn’t do much for us but I suppose not the worst result
Dier was good, Gio was good! If we could even just get Sissoko back soon it’d be huge
The game that brought the downfall last year. Never were the same after that result.An improvement on this.
Tottenham boss Mauricio Pochettino angrily confronted referee Mike Dean after a damaging defeat at Burnley dealt a huge blow to his side's Premier League title hopes.

What did he say?
That game wasn't the 'pivot point' for our downfall under Poch, but it was definitely the moment that our bad squad management finally came to a head.An improvement on this.

Him and Tanganga starting CB pair for me
Sanchez was piss poor again, get Sess sorted at LB or buy another one in same for RB. New CDM and we might actually keep a clean sheet once every 8 games
Looks like the dinosaur has already identified his victim at his new club, Ndombele.

No, he can throw someone under the bus and not be wrong about his assessment. Either this will challenge Tanguy to step up, or he will retreat off to the side. It's a gamble on Jose's part, so I guess we will see the outcome.Well he’s not wrong, is he? For £65m I’d expect someone of his reputation to be able to impose themselves on Burnley, even if it’s only in spurts. If he can’t handle some real talk then he’s probably not cut out for this level.
People will bang on about his performances against City in the CL but Wilson Palacios played a blinder against peak AC Milan in the CL all those years ago. The PL is our bread and butter and he doesn’t look like he can handle it.
Basically that the difference between the two halves was NDombele not being on the pitch. Saying he hopes next season he can make a difference because right now he is not up to PL standards.
Massive words, could easily destroy the player or could get him to shape up. We shall see.

Well he has to do something
Unacceptable performance and fitness
Very harsh words. He has to step up massively, but I haven't given up on him at all. He has way too much quality, I hope he doesn't become the next Ben Arfa, Taarabt, Balotelli etc. because of his workrate (or lack thereof).Fair play to Jose with the interview. He can see what the rest of us can, and that is that NDombele is a fat lazy cunt who hasn't got the stomach for this. We spunked 60million on him, and he's a fucking embarrassment.
I don't want to see him in a spurs shirt again.
