    5 weeks ago if we`d beaten Bournemouth we`d have been 3rd. The garden was mostly all rosey. Funny how things change so quickly.

    Spurs are not that stupid, although they could well be battered by Liverpool on Sunday.

    Ralph isn't to blame. Players aren't working hard enough so are getting punished by Leicester.

    Far too often players are let off for not applying themselves in their jobs. This is lack of pride, work rate. Ralph can't be blamed for that.

    I hope we can at least nick a goal so I win my insurance bet.

    I would still give Hasenhuttl more time. And I don't think he is anywhere near as bad as Hughes.

    But it's very hard to defend him after the way the team has played today. And even if you give him a few more games, the schedule is such that we're unlikely to see any positive results.

    if it’s only 7 or 8 then Ralph should win coach of the year. The only way this doesn’t go to double figures is if Leicester start feeling sorry for us and back off.

    Double figures.

    Not even an over reaction, it actually looks more likely than not. We are nowhere near them, anywhere on the pitch

    Perhaps his strength was his assistant...

    Someone earlier said that he wanted a captain’s performance from PEH.
    He’s doing a good impression of the guy who captained the titanic, although I can’t imagine that the titanic captain would have just watched everything pass him by, in this way.

    The results now put huge pressure on our December fixtures

    Every game becomes a must win

    Ralph isn’t a good manager and anyone that thinks so is disillusioned and Kelvin is even worse. The club is a shambles, no leadership

    I've been saying for so long that we lack leaders all over the pitch.

    Ralph is totally to blame- not liked and players have stopped playing for him (not liked)

    But I thought he was super likeable like Klopp who everyone loves despite being the biggest prick in football?

    Which is why I was worried when Ralph said that he only wanted to sign young players.
    Not only does that reduce the experience on the pitch it sends a message to the older players that he doesn’t want to work with them.
