Hold on .... he’s meant for a high line ?
Well we had a pretty high line when Ederson booted it right past him
how he excelled in your scenario !
Hope we win the league cup. Kane deserves to leave with a cup. Poor guy.
Don't give me that. If you lose having a go then you can say look it's man city. We just let them play second half. Absolutely no belief we would get back into it. At 1 or 2
It's all about confidence.
We should be able to make it hard for a team to beat us and we just don't. .
We offer too little, irrespective of the differentials in expenditure of both clubs.
We cannot control the financial numbers but in Mourinho you expect his management , wherhervthst be play or provision of mindset to bridge the gap. Not happening.
And yes, today theoretically is not the day for judgement but nothing from the game, apart from a tepid and tame but also goalless 30 mins can give or provide confidence for the games to come.
Right now we look insipid and a pale imitation of a decent team.
And yet we have no option but to genuflect accordingly. No vaccine for support that's for sure.

So not 6 points off 5th then.
Finishing below them is a reason alone to sack Jose and fuck this entire senior squad off
Tonight I’d literally only keep Tanganga, Skipp, Scarlett and Parrott
I’m so fed up, I felt that was a cowardly performance. Regardless of how we are set up can they please care just a tenth of the buggers on this site. I know kicking em off the park when you’re getting beat doesn’t help but we showed no fight at all. I know this is a game we aren’t expected to win but it’s the fucking hope that kills you. Anyway on to midweek and behind the team as always mainly because I honestly think as a fan and a supporter our opinion counts for fuck all so there is no option but to support Tottenham. Off to watch Anthony Bourdain now with a large drink to relax. We will be right I know, just feels all a bit wank right now. COYS
Plus Chelsea lost that day, so it would have been 12pts off 4th.
It is cringing the jose fans getting all lairy & cocky when we win the odd match against poor teams. As though that erases all the bad results & mess we are in.
Better players too. Evans, soyuncu, perreira, madison, tielemans, barnes all superior to what we have. Oh and a keeper
So predictable again tonight. The usual individual errors by the same players and others who can not control a ball and pick a pass.
We all know we have at least six or seven players who regularly play that are simply not good enough for a club with our ambitions. Until this squad is radically overhauled nothing will change on the pitch.
The only bright spot for me tonight was tanganga who should be our first choice right back, more games for him please.

I think I’ll sleep well tonight. Sorry if I offended you
And remember the old adage
‘pace is only so good when you’re not flat on your face’
And 12 points off 4th before Jose as opposed to 4pts off 4th tonight
At our absolute worst then as we are now, yet still 8pts closer to top 4
Well, yes and no. I'd argue that Pep has actually underperformed in recent years given the squad he has. Should have won more, and should have won the league for the last few years by a mile.
Anyway, given that this thread is about tonight's game, I fear you are missing my point - tonight, Man City did to Spurs what they have done to most teams, including Klopp's Liverpool last weekend. Surely we never expected to compete with Man City this season - I'm delighted that we have 3 points against them from the home game. We shouldn't judge Spurs / Jose on tonight, we should judge on recent games (generally atrocious, with recent glimmers of hope) and future games.
