    That performance summed up Traore too. Will get you out of your seat but his end product is so poor. Should’ve absolutely scored in that one on one and for the amount he ruined Tanganga in the first half he created very little for his Wolves teammates.

    An exciting player but one that doesn’t get enough done. We’ve got a player like that already in Bergwijn.

    Hate to say this but a 7-0 victory for the Chavs would make the table look good tonight.

    That's the Wolves of the last couple of seasons. Look great Trarore looks fantastic but little end product. Should have been 3 - 1 to Spurs and that's what I predicted. <laugh>

    Will take the win, so what if they deserved something from the game, we will definitely play better (not hard) and lose.

    We already knew that this needed to be a busy week but if ever a game showed up that we need reinforcements this was it.

    I love the defender's tentatively raised hand. Help?

    He's better than Bergwijn. PLay him alongside Kane or Son and you'll have a hatful of goals.

    Kane goes over to applaud the fans on his own.

    Hopefully that's more of an "I'm sorry" than an "I'm off".

    Hugo MOTM but their keeper made loads of saves , 6 points without Kane and the same teams last year , I'll take that
    Traore showing what he is , all muscle and bustle but no result at the end

    I agree. I would swap him for Bergwijn mind you but he would cost about £20 million more so not worth it

    Complete fluke. Concede that many chances against any side, no matter how bad, and you should expect to be losing a few goals. Tactically we were beaten, man for man, for most of the game we were beaten and yet we won. Complete luck to hang on in there until they started tiring in the last 15 and we really should have scored another but there's no reason to complain about about not getting a second when we've absolutely robbed 3 points.

    That said, I thought the back 5 were really good second half, Reggie and Lloris in particular. Lots to work on and with 3/4 players out waiting for transfers, Kane not fully fit and a few other injuries I'm not going to be making any sweeping judgements, we need to get to the end of the window, start bedding in new players and then really start the build. It's important we keep getting the points on the board to keep the pressure off in the meantime and 6/6 gives us that.

    It came all the way from the US of A via a very thin bit of wet string supplied by Virgin

    He's just a hench Gervinho.

    Not that I wasn't bricking it whenever he got the ball <laugh>

    He may be slightly better but you’d be mugs to pay the £40m asking price. We should be aiming far higher than him.

    He got past our defence quite a few times and others finishing let them down.
