*** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur VS Some Gauche Middle Eastern Oil Money ***

They’re on a run of now 16 wins. They’re streets ahead of us in terms of players and resources. They’re at home. I won’t be surprised to see them beat all sorts of records.

People posting “this is all on Poch” are talking brick. Trying to beat a team like this away, missing three strong characters in Toby, Vic and Sanchez, is nonsense.

I get being disappointed but to say the defeat is on the manager is crap.

Why are we trying to outpass them? Leaving their attackers in acres of space? Those are tactical decisions by the coaching staff.
 
What a load of brick. Expected to lose but didn't expect to perform like gutless cowards. Yet again fail to show up in these games

Dier
Trippier
Dembele
Dele ( again)
Eriksen ( again)

Worst of a bad bunch
 
You have to think that Dele is more likely to move to Stoke than Real at the end of this season, given his performances to date.

This game shows where we really are - 10 players behind City, and that doesn’t include the benches. They are so far ahead of everyone in this league.

If he honestly thinks he is ready for Real Madrid etc he needs drug testing.

He will be bombed out within 6 months.

He’s clearly got the talent, but he’s nowhere near ready.
 
Can’t agree about ‘spoilt brats’ posting. Frustrated because they all know this side can play so much better than they have today. Frustrated because sloppy early goals are being given away every game in very similar circumstances. Frustrated because we are so wasteful when we do get the ball up the field. Frustrated because a team full of internationals seems incapable of doing the absolute basics at any point in the game. City are clearly running away with the league and clearly the best side in the country but let’s not forget they’ve won several games in this run by very fortuitous, very late goals against supposedly lesser teams than Spurs; ie they are not infallible. What they do not need is a helping hand. We have given them several.
 
Yes, perhaps he should. Considering you've said that the difference in resources makes a win impossible to contemplate, we can aim to be tight, defensive and just counter attack if we have a chance.

Doesn't seem like a terrible tactic to me away against better teams if we feel that we apparently cannot win?
Utd failed trying that tactic last week. Plus Dier is not a good enough centre half to defend all game. We've been stuffed by having 2 centre halves unavailable.
 
Why did you say 'Exactly'? The post you quoted said we are NOT crappy mid-table any more. We are one of the big boys, just growing into our new shoes. And chastening lessons like this are inevitable.
The post I quoted said we’re not crappy mid table Tottenham anymore, we should be able to acquit ourselves better than this - hence the exactly....

This is what makes me laugh when I see these headlines in the papers every other week

Alli to Madrid
Eriksen to Barcelona

Do they not show our matches on TV in Spain...

Yeah of course we’re one of the big boys, that never win any trophies and never beat the big boys. But let me guess, next season will be different right....
 
Our team doesn't have leaders and winners. We can win against big boys if we're up to such games as a unit on all club levels. If the game against top opposition goes wrong way, we just don't turn the corner.

Totally agree.

Dier thinks he is better than he is.

Dele and Eriksen doing nothing.

Dembele looks so slow.

Trippier getting ripped.

Really miss Toby and Victor.

Just as I type this Eric makes another fudge up. He got away with the penalty one.
