Indeed. The following out field players played 37 PL games this season:
Berahinho, Cresswell, Elmohamady, Eriksen, Hazard, Ivanovic, N'Zonzi, Pelle, John Terry, Trippier
The following played 36 or 35 games:
Downing, Fonte, Henderson, Jagielka, Janmaat, Wes Morgan, Puncheon, Perez, Ulloa, Ward, Boyd, Cahill, Caulker, Carzola, Livermore, Lukaku, Matic, O'Shea, Sterling, Willian,

If we exclude Livermore as we know he was receiving some chemical help.... Why is it that so many of the players above didn't seem to suffer from any mental or physical fatigue?

It leads me to again question whether it is was fatigue we suffered from or a simple lack of desire....

And a lot of those players have multiple full seasons under their belt, and a bit of them multiple full seasons in the PL

You have a big subset of our players who are in their first full top level season, first PL season and first season under Poch's style

Add in the mental challenge of being in that situation and carrying the side as well (great example, Kane = first season in PL, first season as #1 striker and the pressure of carrying the side as their literally is no alternative)

I have been impressed by Kane this season but over the last few games, something seems to have occurred. I dont know if it is mental fatigue or a case of selfish-itis. He misses easy passes to other team mates. Shoots from bizarre angles and seems very tired within 20 mins. I am also not sure if other teams have sussed him out as well. The major question for me is 'Is Kane still enjoying football?' I dont see that joy anymore.

Perhaps it's no coincidence that Kane hasn't scored since this video was posted on Sky Sports and he just wants to avoid having to do that daft dance...

Tottenham Hotspur news: Harry Kane promises to do Daniel Sturridge's goal celebration next time he scores for Spurs | Metro News
 
At the start of the season, would have been more than happy if told Kane would be scoring 20 league goals this season. But it is disappointing at how Kane is finishing this season, just 1 goal in the last 7 matches. Hope he will find his goal scoring boot against Everton.

Me thinks you haven't been. Nobody has said we shouldn't cross or that they are useless, just that as a primary mode of creating chances they are highly ineffective.
