Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

This is utterly woeful and a sad reflection of Ange's management.

How can a team turn up to a NLD 20 months into his reign and play like this? This has nothing to do with injuries, it's systematic. We can't even pass the ball. We have a team of internationals out there ffs
Weve played worse and despite a bad start they created fuck all really and we scored on out 3rd chance. If the officials dont predictably fuck up and give a disgusting decision wed be 1 up at half time. Braindead from bissouma
 
For all the talk of Ange's style of play and wanting to pass it out from the back. How can we hope to play like that effectively when we can't actually keep possession doing it. We get pressured easily and just lose possession...
Gray is never comfortable passing out from back. Kinsky plays it long more often. Dragusin is slow. Biss lost his past confidence to break those press. He's a turn away from losing possession every time. The smart rotating from Sarr and Biss as avenues to pass from our CBs had gone since Romero-VdV partnership went to the treatment room.
 
We bottle it 99% of the time we play at emirates . We could be 4 up and I wouldn’t trust us . Kulu and son pathetic . With 3 mins to go to half time - keep it tight , but no - Porro has to go to the halfway line and leave trossard wide open . We just don’t do the basics right . It’s men against boys .
 
I hated most of that half... But I still think there's something there for us, if we get through the first 15-20 minutes of the second half as is. There'll be a bit of edginess from them. That's a moment for Maddison to come on and show he can step up.
 
We've been poor, but once again the officiating has been woeful and stacked against us.

From the phantom corner, to allowing Son - our out man- to be fouled at will....countless body blocks on our players off the ball providing space in the ball for their players .......Porro not being allowed to return to the field until Woolwich have had a couple of attacks.....
