Even at 2-0 you keep trying and keep going. Playing like that was damn right unacceptable. Such a poor attitude. Not much choice as we don't have the luxury of dropping the likes of winks, dier, dembele maybe even eriksen
 
I took no joy from watching our boys kick them to pieces, either.

De Bruyne was brilliant today. Comedy of errors from Spurs, without any urgency in attack or cohesive understanding between players.
 
We didn't have a chance... no one has against the Oil billions!

We may as we start a breakaway league and let Man City play themselves 38 times a season and win their own fucking League...
It's ALL skewed to fuck now.

Fuck the way football has gone...
And shame on the media for fawning all over it and letting it happen.

For what it counts, I still think Sterling is massively overrated! He didn't even nutmeg Lloris there, it was a lucky bounce that went through the legs. He is just a fancier version of Aaron Lennon and is lucky to be surrounded by much better players who are creating acres of space and plenty of chances for him.
Sterling is their token Englishman. Their "look, we're not just a bunch of money grabbing foreign mercenaries" signing.
 
Should have honestly just put 9 men behind the ball and played on the break with Son and Kane - especially when it was clear our press wasn't working and they were walking through our midfield and creating chances in an abundance from our right side.

It wouldn't have been pretty but we would have frustrated them.

Positive right now is we don't have to play City away from home again this season in the league. Sanchez is back for the next game and it's likely we will have Aurier back at right back and Dier in central midfield (Today showed how important a DM really is)
 
What I'm scared of is some of our players thinking that Walker was right all along and will follow suit.

Half of the season has now passed and we are sitting on 7th place in the table. Not good enough and it would certainly be disasterous if we go into the new stadium next season without champions league football. We have to look at options in January.
 
No shame in being beaten by this team, £1.2b what the fuck. We didn't do what Man Utd did, we didn't bottle this we were not good enough, that's it, nothing else. Deal with that. No melting.

Bottom line is we miss Wanyama, we have NO DM!! Obviously miss Toby too but he would also struggle having to deal with waive after wave of attacks without any protection and we have a Championship Right Back. Winks and Dembele were also very poor today.

I can move on from this no problem, surprised anyone should be melting as to a person you were all expecting to lose, so you were right.

It's the kind of thing that makes you want to give up and watch your local non-league team play
I'll stick with spurs no matter what but it's sad what football has become really
 
some shit decision making by the team when in good positions, a lack of quality/depth to change the particularly when son is already in the team and we're weakened by injuries.
that said a few players were piss today - tripper and lloris especially. Trippier zero pace and poor positioning. Llloris, just a liability these days and should have done better with 2 goals. his kicking is a joke.
