Spurski, where are you mate?

Why so Quiet?

I'm sure you said on Arsenal page you were going to stuff us?

It's all good banter mate and to be fair you totally out-played us, although I would argue we had the better clear-cut chances.

No hard feeling's mate and good luck for the rest of the season.

Im here don't worry! I ain't hiding, I admit we are crap and a lot of that is down to Sherwood with his strange selections and no shape or obvious tactics, other than the ridiculous high line we play with.

Imo all we is a quality left back and centerback and for Lamela, Soldado et al to start performing and to get rid of Siggurdson, Naughton, Rose and Chadli a few others and we have a great team. Oh and a new manager who knows what they're doing.

I hope we finish out of the Europa League places now.

Fair point mate and I must admit the high-line Spurs play is ridiculous.

When I come on here at state what every one else is saying I get slated from the so call loyal fans. But I've had enough we have waited years to try and challenge for cl and when it came alone a few seasons back levy didn't put his hands in his pocket at the time and support the cause.
Ever since that we have sold our crown jewls and changed manager twice maybe 3 at the end of the season.
Dof/ scrap dof go back to dof whf.
One man is doing all this and the sooner he leaves the better but IMO I can't see that happening maybe it's time mr Lewis steps up and explains to all of us loyal supporters what direction they intend to take our beloved club.
None of us are asking to win the league or win the cl we are asking for good football honest players and to challenge to be the forth best in the league, no?
The following players need to be moved on ASAP as they will not help us to acheive this
Freadel
Gomes
Naughton
Dawson
Capoue
Sigs
Townsend
Kane
Lennon Lamela
To be honest I dnt care who gets sold now apart from eriksen as he's the only one that brings somthing different
The players listed have been at the club to long with no success or just dnt cut it

fully agree with you bobbybox I know the outcome of a match before its even started we do not play the spurs way anymore pass and move its all slow and boring but some spurs fans seem happy to finish 5th or 6th and not winning anything

Fed up of hearing that there were positives in the game today, same old! Same old! Mallarkey, its been like it all season and last, just no consistency used to sit knowing a spark would come, but now only consistent at being drab win one loose two no spark, I sit there and know nothings gunna happen its predictable never felt like this in 49 years of supporting spurs things are not going to get better either, only ericksson is exciting but been played wrong . can't see how things are going to get better . Don't want champions league if it comes it comes but what I want is exciting sexy football and my Tottenham back please I want to feel that at any moment we will score or do something amazing, not happened since they sacked Redknapp .

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Things normally happened under Redknapp yes, but that's because of Bale.

sherwood talks the talk but coudnt manage a drink in a brewery his team selection and tactics are poor we are slow and boring to watch arsenal were there for the beating today but as usual we can not beat the big teams we have no star player to drag us out anymore like bale, ginola etc we are going nowhere new manager and chairman next season

Was all for backing Sherwood, but like its been said tactically and team selection confusing it was crying out for soldado at 60 mins not 80 mins love Sherwoods passion, but that ain't enough needs tactical know how which he lacks he needs to be a number two to van gal, or bring back Redknapp . Football not sexy not Tottenham at the moment clubs in a mess has been since we sacked Redknapp if he had been given 50 million and sold bale we would have been better, levy would have had 50 million surplus and no wages for baldini . Levy not so astute! A sad bobbybox.

We lost but it was a Very good performance today best we have produced in a long time.

Unfortunately we weren't able to take our changes when they came.

Lots of positives. Adebeyor was great, townsend looks to be getting back to his best, even naughton looked good at right back

I still don't know if I rate chadli shows signs of talent but showed signs but should have finished one of his chances.

Dont see at all what bentaleb brings to the team at the moment. he looks one for the future but not a starter in a really important game

{Ed008's Note - How many games though where it comes with a good performance but not the result it's been a consistent thing with Spurs play?

We've won our share this year when we've played beyond bad also.

Defence is the key to a good side. We had 70% of the play and win 1-0. If we had scored in the first minute, would we have held off an Arsenal assault for 90 minutes? I don't think so, not with our leaky defence. I hope the new manager starts with the back and delivers a strong back four.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Needs to address the space between the midfield and the back line and ditch the highline defense. We don't move forward or backward as a fluid unit.

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree fully. A high line defence just encourages other teams to park the bus and hit us on the break as happened numerous times this year. We are the only premiership team to play this system and we ARE NOT suitable to it. Maybe we are wrong to play this system and all the other teams are correct not to.

Agree0 Disagree0

Need to address the space between the CBs first.

Agree0 Disagree0

Are the CB's spread because the full backs are busy at the wrong end of the pitch though and not getting back when we loose possession?

Agree0 Disagree0

Top 4 was your ambition but Thursday nights it is

Tbh, I genuinely think we will finish 7. We just don't know how to put games out of sight when we do score. I think we will struggle from now till the end of the season

Agree0 Disagree0

Hopefully we will finish 7th but if we are not careful then that could be 8th, maybe that will wake Lewis and Levy up .

This high line, defending on the half way line is suicidal. Arsenal ran through on goal 3 times in the first 15 minutes. It is a crazy way of playing without a very fast back four. Where was Rose for the goal? He is hopeless. Gave away the ball 3 times in the first 10 minutes.

Again I'll be behind us for the full game but again changing the team around and a wierd selection. Injuries have enforced some but still don't understand his choices

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Naughton, Betaleb, and Chadli, well if we get a pasting again today you will only have yourself to blame Tim, I wanted to back you but your team selection consistently confuses me, hoping i'm wrong but fearing the worst!

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Well I think it's time he packed his bags! I don't know why he is so in love with Bentaleb, Naughton and Chadli! Once again we are going to be playing a winger out of position, and Naughton instead of walker, do me a favour! Is this his way of sticking two fingers up and saying I will do it my way? Win, lose or draw, come on Levy, get rid . After reading his comments this morning about it being Spurs darkest hours, does he really want this job?

Agree0 Disagree0

Mwheels, it took a minute to findout!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Chadli appears to be playing more central and doing a decent job the first 45 mins. The high back line is going to get picked apart and pay the price, it just doesn't work for us.

No idea how we are going to score, nothing on target in first half, thankfully Oxlade-Chamberlin has miscued 3 times.
