    More energy needed. We look like a bunch of old men out there today,
    N'dimbele to step up.
    If we could somehow give Doherty a rest or something. Maybe just bring a proper right back on.

    If this was the other way around, you'd have been crying that one of our players didn't get sent off. He's fortunate to still be on the field.

    Bollocks did he Xhaka kicked Lamela for sure and if you are booking players for those incidents then most matches would finish 6 a side

    Nope. This isn't an accurate depiction of events at all.

    Of course he is. You can tell from all of the non-existent outrage.

    You can blame him. His, defensive positioning is dreadful. No awareness of players around him.
    He needs more cover. Arguably a blanket over the head in the back of a car as he's driven away from N London...

    In the context of this game, on it's own. One of the three behind Kane getting injured was a blessing. We badly need a Lamela, Dele or Lo Celso in attack to help us pose a threat that isn't just hoping the opposition play badly. Arsenal have been organised and that's basically all it's taken to leave us parking the bus for the majority of the half.

    We did improve a bit when Lamela came on and what a great strike that is. I thought for a second he'd scored a goal with his right, how stupid I was to think that <laugh>

    Lets hope Jose is tearing them a new one at HT - if that was our good half then we are in big trouble, Goons better in every area so far.

    Why would you be outraged? You've still got 11 men on the pitch when you shouldn't, and that player who should have been off has scored a worldie. Not surprised you're not complaining.

    The issue now is what do we change?
    Given that one sub is already committed for Bale on 60/70mins, who would we bring on? Sissoko or Aurier?

    Think you'll find that Xhaha was the instigator of their contre-temps.

    They cannot hide the body language.
    Nobody seems up for it, an effing NLD of all things.

    If this is one of those moments where you like to act as if Spurs don't benefit from refereeing/officiating decisions at times, you may as well be honest enough to say it.

    I'd prefer the term cognitive dissonance.
