We are getting humiliated by a Sean Dyche team. Says it all!

Looks 3x worse when even Kudus is having a bad game

We struggle against teams that have a bit of hunger about them. We fold like deck chairs, especially in midfield. I never see the same ferociousness that some other teams have.

Forest are not good. If we played with some accuracy and with our heads up near their box we’d be making some more chances. Forest want this duelling, long ball game, let’s not give it to them.

Can we stop passing horizontally across the pitch like that? Jeeesus.

Incredible that every player on this list has won multiple trophies in England or the CL, other than Kane. The football gods owe him.

Thank goodness for this Test match. I needed a palate cleanser from Spurs.

Absolute joke. Literally happens every game. Get some fucking guts to not go with VAR when they call you to the monitor.

Love that tackle from Bergvall on Joelinton. He’s come a hell of a long way since Galatasaray away.

This feels horribly familiar. We are clearly so poor, and when we play slightly well for periods you don’t get excited because you know it’s more in spite of the game plan than because of it.

This reffing is hilarious, again. Bentancur clearly gets the ball and Joelinton goes down in a heap.

FWIW I thought it was pathetic of our fans to boo Vicario like that. I was there and it felt loud. No individual Spurs player should ever be booed, they play for our club and don’t make mistakes on purpose, whether you think they’re good enough or not. It says so much about the state of our fanbase.

So in terms of goals conceded:
2x unreal finishes from Vitinha
1x gift from Romero
1x farcical penalty
1x poor set piece defending
Not that bad, just massively frustrating.

This refereeing in Europe is a joke. The tiniest fouls are given against us for contact. Nothing similar for PSG. Handball is farcical.

We look mentally frazzled right now, Frank needs to make the changes.

Ffs man, how are we letting the little guy dictate the game and shoot from there

Why don’t we believe in our ability to pass and build up from the back anymore? We literally spent 2 seasons playing suicide ball, now we don’t even try.

Am sure the Xavi sub was done with good intentions but you cannot have Palhinha on the pitch with Bentancur chasing a goal. Where’s the movement or pace coming from? Baffling.

I love Muani, a classy striker with a nice touch and strong in contact. We just need some better rotations around him. It’s not terrible atm but there’s very little fluency and connection

Who is capable of passing the ball to Xavi today? The mystery continues!

Doing this fun little Ultimate Trust XI on the Spurs website. This Q ‘Who would be the best manager in the squad?’
The fact that I’m struggling with this perhaps shows how we’ve lacked true footballing IQ in our team for AGES.
The equivalent of a Silva at City. The coach on the field.

Wow how on earth is that a red? His foot is clearly just bouncing off the ground and the contact is soft. That’s insane.
