It kind of baffles me that people are looking to point out specific players who to blame for yesterday. While in truth it was just collective issue. I do not see how for example Kane could have done much when he did not have any service. Or what should have Moose done when everone around him did not press and be open to receive a pass?!?
We AS A TEAM did not even want to win it. Look how our players acted on the pitch. It was pretty painful watch. I'd say only ones who seemed to play for the win with their whole heart were Moura and Lamela. Others were much more passive.
Such a display hurts. And hurts a lot. But it hurts even more bcause -
1) It was 1st game of the weekend. Yea, like I would want to hear ANYTHING about football after such 90 minutes during this weekend anymore.
2) we have effecitvely undone EVERYTHING we managed with first games. We were 6p ahead of Manure and Scum. Now we sit on even points.
3) It came on the back of another lethargic display against Watford. I expected that players would want to put it right and bounce back with intent... buuuut it rather got worse.
4) It was not the result that rly hurt, it is more how we played. The lack of passion really showed. And this cannot be excused.
I would expect us to change a lot against Inter. I'd like to see Aurier, Davies, Wanyama, Son, Lamela all to start in places of Trippier, Rose, Dier, Eriksen and Winks. Also, it seems that Poch wanted to keep Moura momentum so bad that we now have played 2 games with 4-4-2 without CAM - yesterday it really meant that our attacking game plan was to play a long-ball ...
This game rly hurt, but we cannot write off our players for this one game. I really-really-really hope that different level of energy will be shown against Inter and then ALL of the first-teamers collectively get up to speed. Come on you Spurs! Let's turn the situation around now!!!
