Very disappointed with this draw but not at all surprised. We seem to love drawing matches this season. And annoyingly, we rarely win 4 matches in a row as well. After winning the previous 3 matches, always knew we will have problem winning this match. We simply need much more quality and mentality to win the league title now. We have drawn far too many matches which we should have won. Everton have done their most to destroy our top 4 chances by forcing us to draw home and away this season. I guess we were fated to draw this match as we hit the post twice. We did play well in the first half, coming from behind to equalize and hitting the post twice but we had a poor 2nd half.
Credit to Alli for scoring our only goal. He took his goal really well like an experienced player. In fact, Alli was the only one looking like scoring a goal in this match. Disappointingly, Kane went missing after his shot hit the post in the first half. Kane has won us many points but I think he has also lost us many points this season. He has simply wasted too many one-on-one goal scoring chances. We could have beaten Everton home and away this season if Kane had scored from the one-on-one chances he had in both matches. He really should have done better with the chance in the second half when Alli expertly set him up. But he was too slow to react which allowed the Everton defender to tackle him. Disappointingly, it was our only real chance in the second half.
Our midfield badly missed Dembele in this match. Without him, we were unable to control the midfield as needed. Carroll is still not ready start league matches. For all his work rate, he simply makes too many mistakes. I think Pochettino should have started Mason or even Bentaleb instead. Thought Lamela had a poor match as nothing went right for him. Was very disappointed when he hit the defensive wall from freekick in the second half. It seems we no longer practise freekicks as all our freekicks has been shyte lately, including from freekick specialist Eriksen.
Very disappointed with the defence for the goal we conceded, especially the way we let our ex player Lennon score ! Don't know why we have this bad habit of letting our ex players score against us. Vertonghen should have never let Lennon take that shot. It was very annoying to see Lennon score as he has never scored a goal like that for us. Apart from that our defence did well as Everton didn't have any other goal coring chances until late in the match. Too bad Davies hit the post instead of scoring. It was a golden chance to score.
We could have strengthen our title race if we had won this match. Instead, now we are 6 points behind Arsenal. We have simply thrown away many valuable points by drawing too many matches this season. We really need to buy a reliable striker get us the goal when we badly need it.
