He has to go. Yet another total waste of a first half , where’s the intensity ffs . I’m fuming , today was a must win and the players couldn’t even get it over the line , after we scored we created one. Chance in 30 minutes . . Utterly pathetic , mentally and physically weaker all over the pitch .
 
The only tactic - get it to Porro to spam in a cross. 24 from him today, only 6 accurate. Hit and hope ball at it's finest. No patterns of attacking play, no one-twos, nothing ever through the middle; just dump balls in the box via crosses, corners and long throws.

Woeful stuff from a manager utterly out of his depth - time to go.

Anyone who says we dominated the second half, need to quit pipe smoking.

This is what Nuno Santos teams do. Defend, defend, defend, and defend, then maybe try to steal the odd goal. His plan worked to perfection today. They were so happy to let us run around like headless chickens without style, without organization, with cohesion, without any sort of team play.
Same as with Aston Villa last week. They had 2 goal-lead and let us have it knowing for sure we were not going to do anything. Once they felt we started to feel ourselves, they just took over and killed the game.

So stop with this dominated them stuff.
 
We need to start behaving like a ruthless big club. Basically sack crap managers instantly. Frank is worst than gerry Francis and getting close to gross era. It just looks all amateurish in coaching set up.
 
Tottenham captain Cristian Romero speaking after his side's 2-1 defeat to West Ham: "In this moment we need to stay together, work hard, come back tomorrow to the training ground. It's a disaster in this moment for us.

"Thank you to the fans for always staying with us. Tomorrow we will train in silence, work hard again, midweek we have another big match.

"At this moment this is a disaster for us. We played sometimes good, sometimes bad. We must work hard and go again.

"Its' a difficult moment for us. We are not the best on the pitch."


Disaster. Good word.
