And then there was thr Kane come back which was probably about 3 games premature when the team was just starting to play beautifully. He should have kept his mouth shut and focused on getting fully back in form.

Overall Sissoko was OK today.
But if he has aspirations to being a top class midfielder, he would have buried that chance. He hasn't scored since the War. Shocking, and cost us the game, just like Lloris' mistake.
Unfortunately if the defence screws up it results in a goal.
salah wasnt offside mate. Mane was in the middle of the 6 yard box, but as he never got near touching the ball its not given
Yes we would. Those were never going to change many games. Even when fit dier was making mistakes. Dembele could get fit or play many games end of last season. We should have bought players on the back of finishing 3rd to try and challenge above. That should be the mentality. Not let's keep what we got and we can do it again. Either way the reason top 4 is under threat is about players not getting up for the small teams like Burnley, Southampton. Maybe Chelsea and Liverpool away were games we could drop points in anyway. Our form since beating Leicester is relegation form. Surely our squad is better then that??
Haven't red single argument from you that makes sense. I'm done here. Go on with your pathetic rant at our manager.
I still think we will finish top four but Poch needs to drop Hugo now and get Gazza in
He is a liability and yet he’s captain?
That’s down to Poch
So you want people to admit they were wrong then mock them for changing their stance?
It’s simple for me. Our position by new year showed that the summer window was fine.
3rd, 5pts off top, in all 4 competitions.
For me, that’s ok.
Selling Dembele and not replacing him was not ok. But that happened in January, not August.
The thing is when Poch pulls out empty pockets at a press conference when asked about new players you can see who he blames
I don't think our position is down to poch but he has to take responsibility for the bad as well as the good. The manager still picks Hugo mistake after mistake. If Salah had blasted a shot at Hugo fair enough but that was a slow ass header looping back. How he can't catch it is beyond me or just not do what he did. I agree it's down to the players.
When all is said and done individual errors have killed us this season. Mostly in the biggest of games. Manager and as fans we cant legislate for that. Again I'll say it until on blue in the face, comes down to too much rotation in the backline and playing 3 or 4 at the back every other week. Just play trippier Jan toby rose from now until the end of the season. Make players have to be good enough form to get a shirt. Poch wont though, rotation and Wednesday. Excellent second half just go with same team
Seriously worried that we're going to have to go a without him next season.
Sanchez just isn't the same quality.
It’s weird that you point out losing to shit teams but feel that we needed a new midfield to avoid that.
I think our problems are elsewhere and not talent based personally.
Any other manager would be questioned but some people just refuse to accept Poch is also fucking up
Gutted. More confident making top 4 after today though. If we play like we did in the 2nd with steady possession and tactical flexibility, we will get the 16-18 points we need.
Can’t catch a break. Punished when we should be and punished when we shouldn’t. I’d say our luck has more than evened out.

Of course he has made mistakes. But what do you want, sack him? ffs
I think a relative lack of world class talent stops us being able to compete with Man City plus a flimsy and easily distracted set of players mean we can wobble inexplicably against dross.
That said it’s never been as bad as this with this set of players, they have all become too comfortable. This is where we needed new signings to bring freshness and competition to a squad that has aged suddenly and become complacent.
No, I don't want you to ask others to admit they were wrong without you admitting you were wrong.
We knew Dembele was toast in spring, let alone summer 2018. You ridiculed those of us who said so but then miraculously and seamlessly changed stance in January.
Whatever, most Spurs fans thought and sill think we should have moved to add to our midfield in the summer. You didn't.
I thought we wouldn't move into NWHL till next season.
I was wrong. Hurrah!
Yet to see you accept you were
Regardless of that Lloris just needed to do his job
Like so many of our top players, so inconsistent.
Fcuking awful season for nearly every player. None of them can boast of it being their best.
If you don’t believe some of our midfield problems have come from Dier being injured more or less since December I’m not sure what to say. We need him for rotation at a minimum.
