    Kane started his spurs prem scoring career scoring a free kick ... and now he's finished his last home game for us us with with a free kick ...
    In between those 8 years he has scored no others from a free kick...despite taking 4,961 <laugh>

    Danjouma made a great run and Kulusevski completely missed it. Poor play.

    I guess they are not yet attuned to each other. A preseason would sort that out if they are both here.

    You'd hope so. Kulu just wasn't looking.

    Much better from Spurs, good to see some control in midfield.

    Bissouma is a breath of fresh air. He looks so comfortable and has options. Dodgy foul there though!

    We will regret not taking at least one more of the chances we created, we are a 1 half team and that must have been the good half!

    Managed to catch some of the game whilst at work.

    Playing pretty well, unreal goal from Harry - assist of the season from Kulu, Tom Carroll-esque <laugh>.

    Bissouma looking like the player we know he can be, love it. He’ll cook under a progressive manager next season, quality player.

    Feels odd to say it because it’s been so rare this season, but we’re playing good football. I really like the dynamic of the front 4. Brentford don’t know whether to pick up Kane or Kulu because they can both drop or receive the ball with their backs to goal. Son and Danjuma showing good movement. Kulu looks like he enjoys the free role.

    We look a bit shaky at the back, especially down the right, but Bissouma and Skipp, especially the former, look good in midfield.

    I’d like to see more consistent pressure on the ball in the second half, can’t let Brentford get a foothold in the game. Need to keep the intensity up.

    Add a midfielder who can move the ball forwards, and the football is a lot less stagnant

    Ultimately that's what did for Conte, because with Bentancur and Bissouma out it revealed how reliant his system is on one midfielder
