''They used to be a model but now appear to be a mess''


Beat me to it with the quote! We didn't deserve anything, and yet there were three moments that could have made all the difference: the offside goal, no red for the Spurs defender and the header deflected against the post. Some tough games ahead now as well.

We got done by the officials today. Yes, Spurs were the better team, but first goal was miles offside and they should have been down to ten men, two easy decisions.


Your optimism holds no bounds Risca..we're getting better for sure and January will see us revert to wide play, thankfully which'll hopefully be enough to get us out of this mess.

My post was a quip from the commentator tonight about us being a mess.

A lot of positives in that performance for me. Well, after the first 30 anyway. Ref and officials were truly appalling but VDH was lucky to stay on the field as well for me so we got away with that.

It was a battling performance yes, but please, don't get upbeat about it, not even mildly so. It'll just hurt more in the end.


Ill reprase. Was definitely a step in the right direction, albeit from a very, very, very low starting point.

What we did learn today is that when the game is at about 30% of its normal pace and nobody can run, Sanches is a decent player

If we give it as much gunt for the rest of the season as we did for the last hour, I don’t think we can ask for a lot more. I thought they gave it everything, let down by ability against one of the best teams in the league - they are - and very unlucky not to get a point.

I doubt we’ve got a cats chance in hell of getting out of this, but I think we’ll at least give it a go now. Under Clement no one gave a toss and we’d given up.

Seems to be every week now that we get a bad decision.When we're not scoring or struggling like we are then these 'bad decisions' {and they are} are magnified ten fold but you make your own luck, like we used to, in this league.

2 nil up and we wouldn't care less if Llorente was a whisker offside or whatever but when it's costing us then we tend to blame other issues than how poor we are really.

I really couldn't give two hoots about Wolves. I hope we play the U23s.


Indeed, in principle. I think some players need to learn to play together, or just to play. I would certainly play Sanches, for example.

not sure they will give it that kind of go for too long though, if no result forthcoming in the neext couple of matches will be very hard for them to see the point of playing out of their skin, as opposed to just playing.

The Sanchez decision is what p*ssed me off the most. If that was one of our lads they’d be going. Really sad to see what we’ve become though, CC didn’t seem confident at all of getting any reinforcements in either in the window.

I'd go as far as to create a team around him. Yes, there are deficiencies in his play but I think he's got something and others in the side don't keep up with his speed of thought. All training ground stuff.

I just hope the new guy has players in mind and knows our shortcomings already.We can still stay up with the passion of the second half and a bit more quality.Sorry to single him out but I'm no fan of Olsson and I think we can do better for an attacking wing back.

Also could have had a penalty if Ayew had gone down when Loris made contact with his legs.
Played well 2nd half.

This season! He could get our attack going by running at the opposition but our wide men will need to be on the same page. He didn't have too much of an outlet tonight. We need to stretch defences and then he'll get more room.

There's no way I could mention 2 fullbacks, that would be lunacy.Anyway, I think Naughtons ok for now but I'm not getting Olsson at all.Seems to get a lot of the ball but zero threat and his crossing has got worse.
