    Pochettino's doing his nut on the sideline, by the sounds of it. Can't say I'm surprised.

  2. Increasingly wasteful and Hull well in the game. Bright start with Eriksen and Sissoko really good, but **** since the goal. And Dele is really annoying me!!

    We were in control, took the lead and we've just eased off since. Ridiculous.

    Great save by Marshall, but Alli should bury that.

    That Maguire shout should be a penalty. Didn't think so at the time.
    Move his arm towards the ball. Don't think that it was going anywhere, either.

    Sissoko with the conversion, following his slightly off cross. Putting in the effort tonight, though.

    Sissoko's second shot <laugh>

    Seriously though, we are abysmal. Based on this evidence, the gulf in quality between ourselves and most of the teams above us is shocking.

    Walker with a completely pointless foul right at the end of the half.
    Didn't come to anything, but that was a silly risk.

    1-0 HT. Played pretty well, though we haven't tested Marshall enough.
    Need to keep it up, tighten up at the back a bit and stretch the lead.
    Hull will keep fighting until the end, if we can't put more distance between us.

    We shouldn't have a problem killing games off like this, but always seem to make life difficult for ourselves. Our cutting edge football in the final 3rd is bloody crap these days. So static and slow.

    Sissoko looks like he's at least trying., all to his credit.

    Should be 2 or 3 up but I'm pleased enough with how we're playing, just need Kane to make some better runs and sharpen up in general. Hull aren't out of this at 1-0 though, it only takes one mistake and the momentum can shift.

    Hopefully we can get a couple of quick goals in the second half and look at taking off Toby and Kane early.

    Too many defenders and DMs on the pitch!

    At WHL against teams like Hull, Spurs should approach the game more offensively. To do is to dare and all of that glory seeking motto!

    Spurs are easily in control and should drop the DMs (and give them a rest) and bring on some creativity and offensive-minded players.

    Good to see Huddlestone and Dawson back!

    He made a good run and then paused when he had a chance to hit it. Shame.
