    He's doing the same things that he did in the other games against them.
    We lost them.

    That yellow is exactly when there should be a 10 mins off the pitch too soft for a yellow too harsh for a red

    Sess looks totally out of his depth. I don't want to pile in on him this early but he is literally a passenger. Looks genuinely afraid of them.

    I’m trying to think of one positive!
    I’d change 3 players at half time. Conte should ****ing rip them to shreds at half time

    You could say that about hojbjerg, bentancur, son and Kane as well in this match. They’ve done **** all

    Tuchel completely owning Conte again, tactically set up brilliantly but they look faster, and much hungrier than we do, not a single Spurs player has done anything of note. Dreadful so far.

    Don't forget to take on plenty of fluids during the break. Preferably spirits.

    That’s the nail on the head they want it so much more.
    We spend all this money and we have the same team that finished below them last season. Bissouma and Perisic need to come on at half time and I’d be tempted to put Richarlison on as well and put Kane in midfield

    Sess having a real stinker, was hoping he’d carry on from the Saints game but back to his usual self, just so, so timid.

    Sensible mate.

    what a terrible first half. No more than to be expected I guess

    Only player to go in at HT with some credibility is Emerson. He’s shown up and battled at the very least, which is something none of our other players have.

    1-0 HT. Absolutely awful and we're lucky it's not more.
    Need to sacrifice one of the front three and add a body into the midfield.
    I'd probably take off Kulusevski and stick Bissouma in, but there are arguments for all of them.
    Perisic for Sessegnon is probably a strong consideration, too.

    It's his fault. We're losing this tactically, as we have every time we've played them.

    There is nothing going forward at all. All of the forwards can’t hold onto it, they need more support. Tempting to take son off and put Bissouma in midfield but as we are losing that makes no sense. Sub hojbjerg for richarlison and put Kane in midfield. Perisic for sessegnon. We just need to get some control as they are pissing all over us at the moment
