    Koeman? That's never going to happen given his exit. Not sure he'd be able to turn this round anyway. We don't have a target man for one.

    I cannot fault the effort of the team today maybe bar Lemina. We attacked & had better build up play than most of our other games. We conceded because our defence is weaker without three of our best players (two injured) and one being a dick. If we attacked like we did today against other lesser sides we would not be in this message. But we were playing Spurs today.

    I am less upset by this game than others where we have been far more cautious.

    I am sure I will be shot down for this or people will pick out negative individual aspects.

    I thought Targett was our best player.

    It won't happen, I completely agree. But it doesn't mean I don't think that it should.

    Very different circumstances, but we didn't rehire Hoddle back in 2004. We got relegated months later.

    Since the beginning of last season, Long, Tadic, JWP and Davis have gotten a combined 16 goals while combining for over 12,000 minutes. Roughly one goal every 8.5 matches worth of game time between them. Not dumping on JWP/Davis, but if we're going to have midfielders who can't score, and attacking mids who can't score, we can't really afford to start a striker who can't score.

    PEH was the main person who just jogged back for the 4th goal. Thought he was awful. Romeu was completely overrun but as I said above, I was looking at attitude only, to see who still has some fight and desire in them

    Well if Puel got sacked for losing the players, then I can't see how Pellegrino can carry on after this shambolic display.

    Please no. I genuinely fear relegation unless we have some leadership.
