A pretty hideous day all round. Terrible away ground. Awful view. Shocking match all round. Dreadful referee. A tired and jaded performance from us. Spurs fans fighting among themselves. Write-off and move on... and give Eriksen a rest: the bloke is knackered.
 
People slagging off the idea of bringing in Bale in the transfer thread he would of been just what we need during a game where we didn't turn up like today
 
We have to bear in mind that we played a team supposedly broken and lacking inspiration. One that has a manager who has lost the dressing room, who were the 3rd best team when they played City.

And us, if not the new kids on the block but the ones with the top manager and with a front 3 that could easily fetch 300 million pounds in today's lunatic market.

And yet once that first goal went in I doubt anyone too much on here thought we would win.

Not sure if that says more about us than them but premature ejaculaion in terms of Wenger is once again subject to medicated reflection.
 
About time Poch and this team learn to deal with the pre match hype and pressure for these games. We seem to be happy being the underdog and not talked about but boot on the other foot and its disappointment time.
 
Llorente seemed to find something to laugh about at the end. That’s more than I did.

How on earth did the ref see a shirt pull ahead of the freekick ? Astounding. And the header “only slightly offside” errr slightly off side ?

But those decisions are masking issues a little as we were very poor overall and they deserved at least a plucky point. That point will probably be critical to their chase for a Europa league spot ahead of West Brom, with 3 points they might even pip Watford to 5th.
Laughing Llorente will make the headlines...
The 'slightly offside' decision won't, cos apparently, slightly doesn't matter when Wenger has been moaning on for two weeks about decisions against them...
Poor cunt!

In other news, FOOTBALL sucks sometimes!
 
Being nice to refs ain't getting us anywhere, all the top teams pressure the ref before, during and after games. How many trophies did Fergie or Mourinho win by being nice to refs?

Mike Dean is a fucking clueless cunt, his performance wasn't acceptable so why suffer it.
 
Well what a shock those shit stains get a free kick that never is and score from an off side position, some things never change.

However I was more concerned at our abject performance today. It's fair to say that unless players like Eriksen and Alli start turning up for away games to the other top clubs then we will never challenge for the title.

Alli especially was awful today, poor first touch, poor decision making and made no impact on the game. Concerning also that an unfit Kane is still a better option than putting son or llorente up front.

Going to disagree with others on here and I have tried to see the positives and give him time but sisokko is absolute garbage. His first touch is often clumsy and never seems to have the ball under control, too many passes are played beyond the forward movement of the recieving player and he has no end product. I can not see what qualities this player is bringing to the team? Certainly no work rate in the second half, happy to jog back when we lost possession, winks did more in his 20 odd minutes than sisokko all game. He can't claim he is not getting game time but he offers nothing.

On the plus side what a signing Sanchez is turning into, nothing wrong with his tackle on their player that lead to their offside goal, was composed all game and his positioning is spot on, with his young age he will only get better
 
Ugh. We looked bad everywhere except maybe Sanchez and it still took an offside goal off a dive free kick and Lloris losing his footing to beat us.

Outside of that, though, it wasn’t much better. Feels like the away draw against City last season where we were lucky to get a point, except we lost this time.
