We will be lucky if it just happens quickly and cleanly so that we can get over it and move on. Utd fans were praying for him to leave for 18 months, it dragged on for months and months.
However it seems here his process is being accelerated, the team is putting in the kind of performances that Utd did in his 3rd year there, and he didn’t really start going at pogba and martial until his 3rd year either, where as he has already started with Ndombele and seemed to be blaming the players today.
Im hoping these are signs that this will be over soon.
Moura is very poor he always seems to react to any situation he is in a couple of seconds too late.
His goals and assists in 2020 are a disgrace for any attacking player.
Having said that he was no worse today than any attacking player we had on the pitch
Gold's ratings.
Hugo Lloris
Richarlison rounded him early on but fortunately for Spurs fired over the bar from a tight angle. Couldn't do anything about Calvert-Lewin's powerful headed goal. Made a couple of comfortable saves after that. 6
Matt Doherty
Should have had a debut goal just before the break after playing a one-two with Kane. Did get forward as much as he would have like. A solid debut but not much more. 6
Toby Alderweireld
Showed his lack of pace by almost taking out Richarlison as he attempted to get to Davies' misplaced first half pass. Didn't even get off the floor as Calvert-Lewin powered home a header early in the second half. 4
Eric Dier
Turned too easily by Calvert-Lewin a couple of times and sloppy at times in possession in the second half. Also nowhere near the Everton striker for the goal. 5
Ben Davies
Terrible overhit pass to put Richarlison through after 16 minutes and was fortunate to get away with it. Some very sloppy play at times and little quality going forward. 4
Harry Winks
Worked hard in the anchor man role but alongside Hojbjerg it was just too defensive a pairing and he came off after the hour mark. 5
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg
He likes to kick people does the Dane. Picked up a yellow card for crunching late tackle on Richarlison. A busy performance but he couldn't really impact the game and his passing was off at times. 5
Lucas Moura
Works so hard and put Spurs away with a great break after the half hour mark which should have ended in a goal but his quality on the ball other than that was poor. His control lets him down so much though when Tottenham need him to hold the ball. 4
Dele Alli
Put through on goal by Kane but choose to pass to nobody instead of shooting. Forced Pickford into a save not too long after. Huffed and puffed without much end product and came off at the break. 4
Son Heung-min
Sent in a tantalising cross that Kane was inches away from in the first half hour before having his own shot blocked in front of goal. Set up Dele for a chance on 34 minutes which perhaps would have been better had the ball been passed to Kane. Was anonymous in the second half. 5
Harry Kane
Suffered from a lack of service yet again but set up Doherty for a chance with a delightful chipped pass. He sees so little of the ball it's criminal. A low score but that's not really his fault. 4
Subs:
Moussa Sissoko
Came on at the break and started off as a right winger before moving infield with Winks' exit and then became a right wing-back of sorts late on. Worked hard with little end product. 5
Steven Bergwijn
Had some bright moments when he came on but couldn't find the final ball. 5
Tanguy Ndombele
Almost felt like he was trying to be too disciplined after coming on rather than doing the things that make him stand out in a good way. 5
Spurs player ratings: Doherty solid but Lucas, Alli, Kane, Alderweireld struggle
Here's how we rated the Tottenham Hotspur players after their 1-0 defeat at home to Everton in their first game of the Premier League seasonwww.football.london
The lack of pace at the back worries me. I am surprised to have a Toby and Dier pairing. If Jose is going to play both of them, then it would be best to have a back three with Davinson.
We signed him because he was in the last year of his contract & cheap. Our lack of ambition is astounding.
Because it was claimed he was a great signing.
All shouty in the dressing room. A winner
This link about Dele has one line in it that sums up the game perfectly

Despite playing Kane with three different strike partners throughout the match, Spurs failed to create consistent chances and eventually fell to a 1-0 defeat with a whimper.
Jose Mourinho reveals why Dele Alli came off at half-time against Everton
Tottenham Hotspur head coach, Jose Mourinho, has confirmed that Dele Alli was taken off at half-time against Everton due to a tactical switch rather than an injury. Alli lined up in a front two with Harry

You've never been correct in your life you fucking nonce.
Won some shit with Mac City apparently - nice hair too
Toby’s lack of pace is a huge problem
He should have reached that brain fart ball from Davies first half but failed
As for Davies nice lad and all that but Championship at best
I know Toby is not fast, but he is still the best CB we got - which is why he needs to be protected. In the system we play, the 'protected' CB is the LCB - today, Eric Dier. He played with a defensive FB on his left, and another defender on his right - Toby. This was the mistake: Toby should be the LCB and the defender on his right should be Sanchez - the fastest defender we got. Also, in possession, the LCB basically becomes the central defender in a back 3, which suits Toby's beautiful long passes.
I like the way you included the start and end year for each season to make it look like we've won twice as many trophies.
Clearly should have shouted at the ref about the ball placement on the free kick.
I think blaming today's result on Hart getting a spot on the bench is a fair and reasonable assessment.
