100%. 1 point from 5 games is desperate irrespective of the circumstances. And that this team lead in each game is not to Ange’s credit. It’s unacceptable.

I agree - Ange said there would be bumps, this is part of it and I accept it. Injuries yadda yadda as well But we absolutely must (MUST!!!) get a clinical 1 in 2 centre forward if we want results from Angeball, The whole system is focussed on creating chances from overloads and we are not taking those chances because we don't nt have that player. We had the best one in Europe, we sold him. I can take the chances/goals we concede tactically, I can't take us not taking the chances we create consistently.
On another day, pretty much any forward would have got that Richy header and not many professional top level players would have made that utterly stupid Udogie back pass……..
We are still top 5. This year we will only need to be top 5 rather than top 4 (if English clubs do well in europe)
We paid £50M for Johnson and what has he really showed to warrant that? Said before doku has come in and tore it up and is younger with no PL experience.
Shit goes against you sometimes.
The Villa game being the perfect example. The margins between that being a 4-0 win and a 2-1 loss were very thin.
We need to find some rage and channel it into conviction to win this way.
I think we beat the barcodes on Sunday.
Just watched the goals back....
ARE WE FUCKING DOING THIS DELIBERATELY TO FUCK WITH OUR FANS?
the last 5 games we've gone 1-0 up in ALL of them, and come away with ONE FUCKING POINT (which inadvertently helped the Arse)
I'm genuinely starting to think Spurs players HATE their fans!
The last 3 home defeats have been totally self inflicted!
What the FUCK is going on?

U said "WINNING" and "formula".......... Wanna try again?
Kulu @ #10 was one game where a) we didn't win and b) our play vastly improved when we reverted to a 3 man MF of Biss, GLC & PEH.
I fully agree with Son. We’ve gone soft since Liverpool almost and allowed ourselves to get kicked and robbed.
I don't think fans will turn on Postecoglou anytime soon.
So you think we will beat bar codes on Sunday. At the moment Everton would trounce us as well.
the problem is the "we'll play-like-this-no-matter-what" the 50 passes to forward 10 metres. mentality is like that even at the opposition penalty box - it's useless.
You need to shoot and not think where can I find the next player to pass. You need fast breaks at time when the opp hadn't regrouped. You don't because you want the 'formation' even at the last quarter.
You need to vary your style with the tikki's.
That's what i see in the last few matches. You can moan/groan about being unlucky but the style do us in each time, Score early but nothing (no end product) in the next 80 min.

Have to question why lo celso was taken off. Gobsmacked and went pear shaped after that. Honeymoon period over. Hes the right man though. Just bad rank defending.
Moyse pulled Ange’s pants down, let’s face it. They came out a different side 2nd half. Part bollocking I suspect but also part tactical. They worked us out.
On Ange - it’s not a binary issue, either pro or anti - because it’s possible to both marvel at some of the football we are playing and at the same time see that we are one dimensional and naive.
Fella next to me said mid-first half that we were missing a proper striker and he’s right. The chances we’ve missed in our last 3 home games have bitten us. We both agreed there was a good chance of losing tonight despite being 1-0 up because we’ve seen this script before.
1 point out of 15 is simply not good enough, despite the obvious progress in certain areas.
It wasn’t so much a problem of putting the chance away in the first half tonight but the quality of the final ball. Kulu became very predictable very quickly but at least he kept asking for the ball. Son and Johnson had shockers and then hid. The front three is a huge worry.
Cold, wet and fed up on the way home. Really not sure we’ll see anything different on Sunday.

We had 20+ shots mate.
It's not like we decided not to shoot at the goal. We lacked true conviction to make it count however. As everyone, including Ange has stated.
We were discussing Maddison returning and how much we missed him and I brought up the referees not giving our players protection then ffs
I won’t be responding as this sort of stupid argument is what you do and I can’t be bothered frankly so have the last word why don’t you
Knock yourself out

Not to go down a melt road because I’m sure we will be fine.

I’m convinced the Spurs business model is based on the fact that negative emotions are more addictive than positive ones.
Going to fuck the season off for a bit until we start winning. Not bothering with any other prem games either. It’s all a bit numb and meh this year.
