    We need to keep the ball better. Pedro needs to go off. Maybe even bring cescy onor willian.

    Poor defending from moses. Offside trap would have worked if moses didnt get dragged back.

    yes, would rather have Cesc over Pedro.

    Luiz signaled to Dave to step out. Dave failed to communicate to Moses.
    Moses is always clueless in defending and needs Dave to help out.

    should have scored 2 goals in that opening 2 mins.

    Very very poor from Eden. Great shot from Costa.

    Moses clear penalty not given <doh>

    everything going through useless Alonso on the left.

    Thibo needs to help out there FFS.
    Weakest links exposed by Poch & co. Fair play.

    Conte needs to pull out Pedro now.

    Red devils' prediction of an easy 3-0 to Spurs looks a good bet now. Worst game we've played all year. Looks as if we set out not to lose as opposed to win. Bad mistake, We look all at sea with no one at the tiller.
    Spurs are not that flash, but we're worse, too timid, not direct enough. nothing is coming through the middle today. Hazard and Pedro both poor as well .Oh well, can't win them all, but this hurts. Give Chalobah and Zouma a run.

    True.

    I state again - Spuds WILL not get into top 4. Let your Spud Sun in law know that.
    We are very poor. Only Costa up for it today.

    Thibo, Moses, Dave,Alonso all awful.

    Top 4 still my target. Jose's title to lose.

    too late too little.
    Batters now??

    Conte is very poor today. Shades of Swansea, Pool.
    Conte needs to step it up to get Top 4.

    It had to come to an end sometime, I did say that we could very well drop points tonight.

    Very poor match. Hazard alonso dave pedro costa and luiz been very poor. Costa worked hard but constantly offside. Alonso losing the ball all the time alongside pedro. Hazard has been the most disappointing. He had chances to run but most disappointingly he hasnt turned up in any big matches this year. Again hes missed 2 sitters. 1 at the beginning of each half.

    Luiz hasnt been bad defensively but his long balls today have constantly given the ball away.

    Dave been shredded by alli today.

    Oh well we move on. We needed willian and fab to play. We looked knackered today.

    Defensively i think we were okay although it was disappointing that eriksen had all that time to cross it in but it was a cagey match. Very disappointed in our attacking play.

    Conte was also disappointing. Waited agea for subs in a cagey match. Would have preferred him to push us on

    Spot on Bobby.

    Fair play to Spuds. But they will do well to finish in 5th spot. Top 4 no chance for them.
    We need to clear dead woods and Conte needs to reinvent himself.
    Else we might have to fight Spuds for 5th spot :(

    The loss against the scum is a blessing in disguise in my book, runs can't go on for ever and you could see in the match against stoke it was having a baring on our performance. We get up brush ourselves off and look forward to the next game with no cross to carry.

    Well done to Spurs, they smacked our bums tonight, and to an extent we invited it. We could and probably should have gone at them flat out, instead of playing for the draw, which is how we looked to me. All that did was make ourselves look ordinary. Very ordinary for the 2 goals.
    We obviously need reinforcing in midfield and at the back. Good as the back 3 have been, there is still a disorganisation around the goalmouth that needs addressing. And we need more creativity in midfield, but creativity with strength and speed. If Kante is off is game, as he was tonight, the front men get nothing.
    Anyway, something for Conte to ponder and surely he will see and fix what needs fixing.
    Now , how to face the Spud son in law !!!!!
