Awful, two main midfielders have turned up and provided two utterly honking performances. Been dreadful at the back. Need a seriously better 2nd half showing here to even salvage a draw.
Scoring just before HT with that easy header would have been a huge boost but we couldn't even manage that.
Madness from Trafford and not his 1st mistake this half, closed down earlier in his box, kneed that lad outside the box and fucks up a simple pass for their 2nd is not a good performance.
Lets' continue with a makeshift RB, worked really well last season

It's the 4 in front who are the problem. No cordinated press.
 
Spurs did not do anything till they score that typecal goal. We have wasted clear chances.

Why Travord made that silly mistake? He did not have to pass that ball. Why take so much risk? He could have been sent out with red card
Credit Frank there he would’ve told his team Trafford is inexperienced and will try to be like Ederson close him down and he will make a mistake.
 
Playing out from the back carry on is dead. Spurs have pressed us high and we look nervous trying to play out. We have 2 wingers , play it long let them run into the space and fire in balls to the best striker in Europe. Basic but it's our only way
 
All I’m saying is that our English contingent need to step up. Every goal has come from their mistakes
 
Sat right in line for the first goal and Lewis reacted after the cross rather than before….he had been pretty decent until then.

Controversially….Marmoush, ( first touch really poor) Nico and probably Rico are not good enough if we want to be challenging.

Some positives though….Bobb looks a proper footballer and Cherki showed some real promise (needs to learn to not mess about in his own area though)

Still think there is something in this game for us !
 
It’s incredible how good Bernie has become on here over the past 20 mins.

I said making him captain was a terrible idea and 2nd game into the season, our captain is on the bench. He will have to come on in the 2nd half to try and give us some solidity in the middle but it’s a fucking farce that yet again, we’ve selected a captain, who isn’t guaranteed to play most weeks.
The primary alternative is Dias and there’s a strong argument he shouldn’t be in our team either.
 
Disappointed that Marmoush fukced everything he possibly could.

We need to boss the mid or we lose this.

And can the lads stop shitting it and have a go FFS??

We are shooting in our own foot again and giving games away.
 
Spurs haven’t done anything special they’ve just done the basics right. Meanwhile we are messing up simple passes.
