    If we don't have a CB lined up in January, we're in serious trouble. If we're going to be a bad attacking team, we're going to need to be a good defending team, and we aren't that at the moment.

    "Spurs were in control for the first half but haven't looked as convincing in the second, Saints have been attacking well" I'm no football Analyst but i think you might be wrong you twit of a commentator.

    With a better defence, manager and attacking lineup in the first half (why Redmond and Long), this wouldn't be so bad. Also, Romeu might be the slowest player in the league.

    Agreed, always find it strange when people rate him ahead of De Gea

    In his last game MP2 learns to make substitutions in the 60th minute and score goals (when we're 4-0 down)

    now we're playing with freedom and without pressure we look better on the attack at least. showing our ability a bit more.

    I agree on Yoshida going back to old Yoshida. Who makes weird lil mistakes that lead to a goal

    I think it might be more to do with Spurs lacking ****s to give after the 5th goal.

    Part of the problem is he hasn't got a reliable partner since VVD went AWOL.

    It’s not just down to the players though - you have to look at the manager.

    Even poor teams can organise themselves and make themselves hard to beat and this same group of players were defensively solid a year ago.

    Had we started the game more positively instead of waiting for 4-0 those chances good have meant something. How many times this season has he waited for the game to be lost before trying something positive and attacking?

    I absolutely cannot wait for Pellegrino's post match conference.

    Well the only surprise at this result is that we scored! Time for the board to step up and sort it?

    The **** hawks are circling and soon it will be a perfect **** storm! TPB.
    If Pellegrino doesn't get the bullet after this complete shambles then I will be both amazed and disappointed!
