I felt we deserved more tonight. But Tottenham were really dangerous when they actually decided to attack. If we had been really unlucky we could have lost the game as well. Good luck for the rest of your CL campaigne.

Players seemed genuinely frustrated tonight - almost angry at times - which is a good thing for me. Maybe it was just a horrible trip, to a very unusual location and club, with a sodden plastic pitch. Also, the structure of the start to the season is absurd with the international breaks. With new management and signings, maybe it will take time.
But I hope we realise the opportunity of our kind fixtures in the CL and the opportunity to land quite comfortably into the last 16 with just a bit of focus and consistency.

You have no idea what you are talking about do you? Been playing football manager and now think you understand everything?
I am fully aware that we have had some dreadful games, with Bournemouth being the only really poor one.
But then, being an adult with the ability to think, I am also fully aware that transitioning from last season to this season is not going to be a smooth ride, it was, and will be a thing that will continue to happen, until such time, the new manager and coaches has started bed their ideas into the squad.
You are just going to have be patient. Deal with it.
Is this a copy and paste job again? Swear you've said the exact same thing hundreds of times.
"I'm smarter than you, you're a child, you're not worthy of a response"
Can't you switch it up a bit?
Same v wolves 2nd half we were actually worse thsnn1st half so not sure what he says at HT abd expects bcos it don’t work generally.
I think some of the dinlows on here would actually sack Frank less than 10 games in. Incredible as that seems...
And as you said, we have had a more than decent start all things considered.
We have a lot of young players in this squad who are being asked to step up, we have most of our experienced creativity sidelined long term and we probably need at least two more windows to get the squad right.
I'm by no means a happy clapper, I've been plenty critical. But the club actually had a decent window, we got a manager who most people seemed happy with. What is required now is a bit of patience and support.
Some of the takes on here convince me we aren't dealing with serious people tbh.
A lot of it is that mob up the road looking like challengers and living rent free in some of our so called fans heads. And that melting adds to the urgency and impatience in our fan base.
True about BJ, and Odobert to an extent. Straight away we’re at a disadvantage, even though he probably cost many times more than their entire squad combined.
But where was Gray? This was exactly the type of game for him. And what’s the obsession with Bentancur? I honestly don’t see it.
He didn’t have to start BJ. It’s obvious by now he’s a liability. Why not just change it up a bit and go two up front? We actually looked good against PSG, Kudus and Richy both more involved, more dominant. Even if we play Odobert, give him that freedom.
Right now it’s just not working. Wasn’t working against Wolves either.
Might be early to say it, but is he shaping up to be the Danish Southgate?
Yup, we played poorly, but the fact we fought back and the players are pissed, is a good thing.
And despite all this, we have only lost 1 game in 9, Nothing to worry about in my book, enjoy the ride and the players get some actual coaching.
We are difficult to beat, we actually have set pieces now, okay they don't always come off, but we are nowhere near the chaos we was last season, and the players even if playing poorly, seem to be giving it their all, bar one or two of the usual suspects.
Played poor, subs made the difference when they come on.
No need to panic.
Poch was on the verge of the sack in November 2014 - but for a deflected Kane freekick goal and win against Villa.
You did well, I think it’s a tricky game for anyone at your place.I felt we deserved more tonight. But Tottenham were really dangerous when they actually decided to attack. If we had been really unlucky we could have lost the game as well. Good luck for the rest of your CL campaigne.
Away from home you might find it a lot tougher though.
Pretty much.
I think so little of Woolwich, I don't care what they are doing, I only care what we are doing, and if takes a few years to get it right, then so be it...
I want what is best for Spurs, and Spurs need time to sort the mess Levy left us.
What we need to realise is we can’t play that much worse than we have at times this season and we’ve only lost once. Thats a real positive. At some point we will find some rhythm and the better performances will come. Frank needs to stop playing certain players and we all know who they are. Getting Muani and Solanke fit will make a difference.
No idea what I'm talking about? Tell me what am I wrong about? Do you see good cohesive football? Do we look like a team that's going out with a plan? I see a team getting outplayed EVERY game.
Again, if I seen some green shoots of recovery, I'd be happy. If we didn't look lost every game put, I'd be happy. Tonight was a joke. Our recent performances have been an utter joke. I guess Nuno was to blame for the Mourinho reign, and that's why it was welcomed when he got sacked for putting out the same level of performences.
Mate, the man has had 4 months in charge and we're not seeing anything that looks like he's been here linger than 5 mins. If you're happy that this is the level of football you want to see, you do you, but I want to see any sort of improvement and fast.
We've had a piss easy schedule. We've played the 3 worst teams in the league so far, two midtable sides and had a good day out against the worst City team under Pep.
Again, you're happy with this showing so far, that's cool. I'm not going to insult you over it. I've been voicing my concerns since the Villarreal game, and we've been poor in every game since.
Noticed half of our fans didn’t turn up and happy to pick the ticket points up 
Of course. The surface is an advantage at home. The flip of the coin is that we struggle more away.
You can't apply reason and logic when you are dealing with reactionary dinlows. Don't waste your breathe.
If he does play football manager he rolls his face across the keyboard
I think the tactics or lack of and the will to win have something to do with it. We sat back while that first half every player back in our 3rd. No one presser and they just passed the ball around at will. Then 2nd half number of times their players could have a cigar in our box the space that had. I thought a frank team would be physical , run abd press at least even if no technical ability.
