Cardiff’s?
It's the people who insinuate that Sissoko gets blame that other players don't that really winds me up mate. I don't think I've ever seen a player so unsuitable in every single way to how a team is trying to play than Sissoko with us. I agree his effort can't be questioned and he seems a really good guy, but from a footballing sense he was an absolutely farcical buy, a fact most people called when we signed him, and we should have cut our losses and got rid the following Summer.
No sorry it's not harsh. That performance was simply unacceptable if you support this football club especially against ten men bottom of the league Cardiff team at home.Imagine if they were still 11 what could've happen. I'm more than happy with the win but i can't simply ignore that garbage performance today.
Poor performance but cannot argue with 3 points. LLoris got away with his error this time. Kane still not scored against Cardiff. Moura after his good start to the season starting to misfire. Son still Knackered. Hope Rose ok.
We may get Eriksen, Aurier and Dembele back for next match but not Verts or Dele.
Should have done better.

Very true. He’s like a riddle.
‘What gets paid to play football, dresses like a footballer, and calls themselves a footballer, but can’t actually kick a football?’
... Paul Pogba?
You simply cannot accept that kind of performance today if you support this football club. We were lucky with our goal + sending off. I love Poch i just want him to fix our same old problems that we see every game since the start of the season. Cause i don't see any improvement from the team. And i think dropping Gazza was a big mistake as well, we were more confident at the back when he's in goal.
It's a bit much all this Sissoko hate.
Geezer comes off drenched in sweat, more sweat than some managed in their whole career at us ffs.
We know he can be clumsy with the ball, but so can everyone. Its been mentioned once or twice now.
Lets face it Dier, for all his Portuguese training as a youngster has his fair share of cack moments on the ball too.
Still love him though, don't know why people can't at least respect Sissoko for his 100% effort.
Anyway decent win, bit tricky at times it just wouldn't fall for us to get a comfortable 2nd goal.
2 clean sheets in a row. Rose looked really good today.
Equalled our best PL start too, so all things considered its brilliant we are where we are.

He was a real threat in attack, great to see starting to look like his old self.
With respect, you're talking crap. It was a winning performance where we absolutely dominated Cardiff and made getting on for 20 attempts on goal. Cardiff defended pretty well, and we were missing our best defender and three best Midfielders. Our forwards needed to be more clinical, that's all.
I thought a hallmark of great teams was winning ugly. And that's what we're doing.
Usually it comes when we are on a roll. I’m not concerned about the performance given the state of the squad, but man, this break couldn’t come fast enough.
He’s the most useful useless player I’ve ever seen.
It’s like he needs to ensure that every good play is followed by a horrific one. It’s impressive in a strange and depressing way.
This is embarrassing as we didn't control the game , we were ramshackle against shit . If results are people's only concern then your supporting the wrong team.
The result was the only good thing.
I'm pretty sure most of us respect Sissoko for his effort, his professionalism and is apparently a top bloke. He does a job from time to time.
But let's not delude ourselves, he was a very poor signing and would have been out the door if he wasn't on inflated wages and with a £30m price tag Levy won't want to write off.
Sissoko is a great sub up a goal in the 80th minute. Not worth £30m, but we aren’t putting that cat back in the bag so may as well use him.
Well sure. He's there to be used. He does a job, as I said. But he's soaking up big wages and occupying a foreign player slot doing a job any decent youth player could do.
I'm always fully in support of any player in our shirt, but I know my heart always sinks when his name is announced.
