Spurs (H) - Post-Match Thread

Are we back to sanity or is everyone still losing their minds and saying the most ridiculous overreactions over having lost 3 points, despite, you know, getting 43 out of 45 before that?

Bad games happen, people. Even so we were the better team and created more chances.
 
I love Dias, Kaporte and Stones but I wish we had a CB with more pace, especially because of the way we play. The only way we seem to get caught out is on the counter. Walker is our only quick player at the back, if he gets caught upfield we are found out by quick forwards.

We barely created any chances. We played well in the first half, and for the first ten minutes in the 2nd and then we went to pieces.
 
I know should be happy with any way we win the league title but entertainment wise it's much better when we haven't won it in April bring the challenge on massive few months ahead
 
Shocking, but the warning signs were there even last week v Norwich, We we’re all over the place defensively until Sterling scored.

Today we weren’t aware of where each other were and we certainly weren’t aware of where Spurs players were. Was that Dias that stupidly headed the ball backwards over his head to the breaking Spurs players? Amateurish. Too many poor performances today, nobody apart from Eddie was a 7/10. Our best outfield players (Gundo & KDB) turned in no more than a 6/10. They both tried to create but the rest were way below par. Foden & Silva were awful and either of them should have been subbed before Sterling. Rodri created nothing and prevented nothing. Despite all this, we could have won it if not for Lloris & the post; but to equalise in the 92nd minute and then concede again after losing posession in attack was stupidity. Hopefully we recover quickly.

We hit the post? I must have missed that.

At least three were close in the first 20 minutes, one of those days, we’re not entitled to win every game.

Long distance curling shots are not chances. There wasn't one moment where I was out of my seat thinking how did we not score that. We had a lot of the ball on the edge of the area but didn't get through their defence and get one on one with the keeper. Our goals were fortunate.
 
I must say,, as I don't know what it looked like on TV, we missed having an actual striker today, imo.

I would also like to break up the Dias and Laporte partnership as it doesn't balance as well as it looks. Literally, Laporte tends to switch off and I was there wondering how Kane managed a 'blind side' run through the middle of defence!!

I've never been happy with the pairing we have and Stones deserves a chance to resurrect the wall he had with Dias now.
