    I guess on the balance of play, Spurs shaded it... We move on to the next game.... Hopefully we can now keep our expectations in perspective. Not too disappointed, Spuds are not a bad side.

    Probably our worst midfield performance of the season. A draw would've been okay but a loss is downright unacceptable.

    Also, still not convinced by Ozil. These goals are papering over the cracks. Welbeck was also shocking and was dominated by Rose who is hardly a world class player.

    Always going to be a tough game. Spurs are the in form team in the league and Harry has been on fire all season. We are still finding our feet and getting better but overall the better team won on the day. We will come back after this loss.

    Always hurts losing to the Spuds, but to be honest we didn't really do enough to win this game.

    Let the spuds enjoy this, this will be their good moment of the season they can look back on when the season ends. They have their DVD moment.

    Also shows how much we miss Sanchez, doubt we would have lost that game with him in the line up! Fecking medical people, saying he is not fit!

    Yes, our game plan was to let you have the ball, so just because you had a lot of the ball and play didn't mean you were better, that was our plan, for all your possession you didn't have that many actual clear cut chances, we were undone by a set piece we should have dealt with, and the second goal was a good play from you.

    So yes, we were unlucky to lose, a draw would have been fair.

    That was pretty ****. Game plan was correct, but we just never looked like we were on it going forward, missed Alexis because he offers that X factor and individual genius that can rescue us when our team play is ****.

    Credit to Spurs they played with lots of energy and pressed us into submission, their pressing is pretty immense and they kept going and going, and that ****er Kane is just lethal.

    No, it's not being bitter, it's speaking the truth, we have been here many times before, and even worse, when we lost to Spurs 2-1 and went 7 points behind them.

    Ozil was poor, Carzorla was poor, Ospina was poor.

    Pretty disappointing afternoon. Shame we didn't have Sanchez to rescue the points for us

    Oh well, time to dust ourselves down and get ready for the next game, our run in is pretty kind, so I still fancy our chances to finish in the top four and the Fa Cup is also very much on

    Have to give him credit, he won the game for them and scored two very different goals. Really good player, and bodes well for England.
