Playing Rodri alone in Midfield is obviously not working. Alvarez needs to be dropped, Phil doesn't do enough on the wings and looks frustrated. Akanji cant play the Stones, disjointed and lethargic.

Defensively fucking wank.
Try to get back to basics.
Hopefully stones and Kev can stay fit.
Overall, this season has seen us play from the sublime to the ridiculous.
So far the transfer window is not living up to expectations and once that happens you drop a level.
Anyway, these players have given us so much and I can’t just forget that now we are struggling to dominate games. The amount of lost 50/50 is crazy.
Ref fucked up at the end but it would have only covered up the cracks. We can’t play games like basketball! We are all about control and the chavs game and spurs game have shown we don’t have any.
Interesting to see how we solve the issues.

It’s bent but we all know Grealish is not finishing a one on one anyway. My anger and frustration is with our players as bent refs should not have been able to influence this in any way. It’s on us.

Its hardly irrelevant. If we'd have buried 1 of 5 or more clear chances we had it wouldn't be in tge refs hands to screw up.That's irrelevant when officials are not doing their jobs

Absolutely hopeless at both ends. We should have been out of sight at half time. 4 shots on target out of 18. And some were big chances. But at least in the first half we dominated. The second half was awful. Second to everything, controlled nothing. Defending awful. I wonder if the lack of Gundo means that Rodri is having to do more progressive work and its affecting his cover of the defence.
Incidentally, I knew this was going to be a tough game when I heard every podcast and Spurs fan discussing how many they were going to get beat by.

oh bolocks. we get tons of soft penalties - there is no conspiracy.The refs have always been shit/bent. So I factor that in watching any game.
Just not really at it despite scoring 3. Things will improve but it will be a sore one for blues.
The alcohol I’ve been drinking may have numbed me but we’ve been here before. This side of the year, City not doing well, blues disappointed but they turn it around. Shit day at the office but have faith blues.
This team is shot. And let’s be honest does anyone expect Jack would have scored at the end.
Not enough quality in depth, a pretty awful summer transfer market, we cannot defend this season despite adding an 80 million defender and despite always being wasteful we are criminally wasteful this season. We cannot miss 2 to 3 sitters a game,
No way are we winning the PL this season with this squad, tactics and defending/finishing. Arsenal and Liverpool will both finish ahead of us as Arsenal look strong at both ends and Dippers have scorers through the team unlike us.
18 shots and just 4 on target, Spurs 4 on target and 3 goals, story of our season.

Its not always the defense thats to blame and midfielders need to help stop the flow to the edge of our box.Can someone explain to a pleb like myself what's going on with our defensive displays this season?
Fucking shocking!

Simply not at it this season. 8 goals conceded in last 3 games, 11 in last 4 in all comps. Conceding goals late on: Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool and now spurs.
A lot can change over the course of the season, but thats 7 points chucked away right there. Two tricky away games next, one without Rodri. Really need to be careful we don’t drift further from the two in front over xmas as we know they’ll keep grinding through games.
