It’s one thing losing five consecutive games, it’s another in the manner we have. We’ve been deservedly beaten in all 5 and Pep cannot take a free pass from this.

Yikes!To be fair we have spent but we have spent on mediocre players. Nunes, kovavic and Phillips is best part of 120 mil there.
Well, what a horrible watch that was.
We had a lot of chances, but Tottenham took nearly all of theirs and we were profligate in front of goal.
We are in a transitional period - and the heavy losses of key players to long-term injury have really made that transition difficult. It is an unfortunate truth that we have several players at the end of their amazing careers with us: Gundo, Kev, Walker and, probably, Bernardo cannot cope with young, athletic opponents. It was never their game (Walker apart) and now we are being continually overrun. This year we have had a horrible injury list - Rodri, Bobb, Kev, Phil, Stones, Jack, Doku, Ake, Walker, and others have all been out for decent periods and our squad has not shown enough depth to cope with that. We have a lot of quality, and youth, but losing so many at once has really been damaging. We also have to consider that many of this team are simply not used to being run over, and the tactics we have employed to bring such success are now looking vulnerable, especially without Rodri's presence to sweep things up.
What would I do - we MUST have some legs in midfield. This, at the moment, is Nunes.
We cannot continue to play Walker, IMO. He is yards short and appears to be offering nothing offensively.
I would probably be playing Jack, Nunes, and Kovacic (when he returns) in the centre.
I would play Rico/Akanji at R/B
The return of Jack, Stones and Ake are most welcome, but it is midfield where we are continually being cut through and it is making the defence look woeful, and it is also without Dias who is a very solid defender.

We can look forward to seeing peps next generation of team because without doubt this one is finished sadly, we are too predictable all over the pitch.
Always said we can't win the league every season as is evident to all.
Shit weekend now
Yours very sad blue.

Could have been anyone today that would have thumped us…(but had to be spurs they will lose to some bottom half team next time out) been the same last 5 games so easy to counter against now especially if we don’t score first! Which we very rarely do! I mean Fulham and Southampton were iffy also! You simply can’t start that midfield again! We need to let teams sometimes have the ball and defend deeper and counter back I would even start with a back 5 next week and let stones drift into midfield in possession we can’t keep being this open!!!!
Another manager hopefullyWho will be available in January?
