    If Arsenal weren't so ****, i'd put some money on them to take 4th spot. I fully expect Everton to take us to the cleaners

    Danny Rose just about the only bright spot.

    In that Son was moved from the central striking role, probably.

    Kane's not been on the pitch the last 3 games and he's been awful in each. Not just goals but his entire game. Can we drop this **** narrative that Kane is stifling him now?

    We are so far off tonight, I don’t know where to start. And it’s not just the players. Poch has again got it tactically wrong.

    Our first touches and passes are poor. We can barely string three passes together.

    Moura should never lead the line. He’s like s baby running down a hill. You just know he’ll fall over eventually.

    Son is so off his game , it’s agonising.

    Eriksen is being well... Eriksen.

    Dele has flashes but still strolls around like he’s untouchable.

    Wanyama is do slow. He’s simply not the player he was.

    Trippier... why oh why lord does he get picked.

    So second half I expect no changes by Poch. Maybe a sub around 70 minutes when it’s too late to have any impact.

    Supporting this club is torture.

    Alli and Eriksen AWOL again.
    If you have to come deep to give your defence an out ball, do it.

    I appear to have watched a different match to many people here - They are a good side but for most of the half we have given them a decent match, difference is they took their chances and we didn't, but thats the story of our recent matches, no clinical finisher.

    I think and Dele have worked their socks off but Sonny is almost trying too hard, and looks so short of confidence and form that he might as well have stayed at home.

    So the pundits see a foul on the opening goal, but VAR doesn't? What's the ****ing point in it, then?
    We're a shambles on set-pieces, though. Definitely needs addressing.

    In games like this Kane is the player who drops deep to play in the likes of Dele, Son And Lucas, no doubt about it we miss him , while hes on the pitch there is always 2 on him

    I get the disappointment but **** me.

    We created 2 very good chances but didn't take them...there's nothing to say we cant do the same this half and if we score 1 they could wobble.

    At 4-2 down v city we were out.
    With 1 point from the opening 3 group games we were out.
    After 84 mins at Barcelona we were out.

    But we battled through ...

    So COYS

    We've had plenty of the ball and haven't played that badly, but our defence has been dodgy and we didn't put the ball in the net.
    Son's our best goalscorer and he's playing on the wing. The system's fine, but the personnel are in the wrong positions.

    Conceding the second goal is bad news but we must not give up.
