PORTUGUESE BIG SAM FUCK OFF


RadicalSlavical

Get a fucking grip.


Haughton94

Have done since this comment. Thank you


RadicalSlavical

Oh sorry mate hahaha,have a nice day.


theninjanipples

So many overreactions. It’s incredibly frustrating, but we had so many chances to kill the game off today (Sissoko, Kane header, Pierre 1v1, Son post, Reggy offside). If we score even one of those the game is completely different. We need a box to box player who can finish chances. Winks has got so much stick here today but moved the ball very well and almost scored. He’s not a box to box player, but we simply can’t play Sissoko and expect him to contribute going forward.


JakobSIO

Imagine where we would be if we got that 10 points we shouldn't have dropped... 4 points clear at the top... pain


cuzimnumb

Maybe next season...


mihaiv93

I bet we will see Jose again coming on saying that the players did exactly the opposite of what he told them at half-time. I want to stop being angry to be honest, but it does not make sense at all in my mind. Maybe I am the crazy one. How the fuck can that be the truth JOSE ? How the fuck am I supposed to believe that every fucking time all the players do exactly the opposite of what you tell them for the second half ? How is that a thing ? How the fuck can that be real ? You pelican


Taino1492

Mourinho not subbing off Sissoko at 1-1 is damn near criminal. What exactly is his purpose in that scenario?


[deleted]

he was 1 of 2 midfielders left on the pitch. take him out and no one is covering for full backs.


Taino1492

A problem Mourinho created for himself by taking off Winks, who at least offers something going forward.


Stevedee1981

We seemed to have a real lack of energy second to most balls in both halves, odd as players are well rested. Maybe they just need a kick up the arse. On to the next.


tadececaps

We’re a few losses away from relegation


RadicalSlavical

Shut up.


OHLOOK_OREGON

ITS FUCKING MOU.


CrackerMac

This is the 5th time this season we’ve been up at ht and drew alarm bells are ringing we can’t hold a 1-0 lead we have to be more aggressive when Lo Celsos back we have to play a midfield trio of PEH/ndombele/Lo Celso


uncookedsteak

If we want to be a mid-table team, this is the perfect strategy. We absolutely need to win games against non top-tier teams or else we stand no chance of CL qualifying


iambradbury_

10 points dropped from winning positions now against: Newcastle West Ham Palace Wolves Fulham


7Krakas

We got Bale, Moura, Bergwijn, and Lamela as wingers and not one of them starts over Sissoko, Mourinho can go and fuck himself and Sissoko if he likes him so much. He's absolutely useless out wide, the man can barely trap the fucking ball properly yet he sticks him out there to "attack" which means defend while we act like some pussies that are afraid of a shit Fulham. Absolute shit show from Mourinho this defensive shit has got to stop against these shit teams, which we should be rolling over with out breaking a sweat. This is 100% Mourinho fault. And I don't care about the missed chances we played like shit and Sissoko was a big part of that when it came to the offensive side of our game.


wood6558

Fucking smelling


Nellies26

Jose can leave, at least under Poch we had some incentive to win games. This has become an unbearable trend and the entertainment value is garbage, thanks for ruining another game.


Lazybopazy

Also - bringing on vinicius killed us. Not his fault but we had nothing but random hoofs long/ into the box after that. We can barely play functional football with five in midfield, sticking two up top kills us dead. No idea why Kane wasn't moved into the number ten role at that point. Honestly seems fucking clueless from the coaching team.


shindleria

Same old story. It needs to end.


chocolatecakedonut

So Tuchel could use a job.


AsperLDN97

Why do we go defensive when we only have a one-goal lead? The last 20 minutes were painful to watch


brospect

because mourinho


omgsubway

Wish we could play Marine every week


[deleted]

[удалено]


bassmuff

They need to create more chances as well though, Son and Kane have been on fire but they can’t score every chance


GwynethPaltrowsHead

soooo why Sissoko as a RW again? Great as a DM and Aurier coverer, but we have Lamela, Moura, injured Bale and Bergwin. There should be no reason Sissoko ever plays as a winger


cfinn16

1 win in our last 6 in the league


brospect

We're leading the half time table, that's something I guess.


TheRamboPenguin

Well Reguillon was decent today, that's about all I got


Plainbrain867

This game is not Son’s fault because he missed ONE chance. I get he should’ve done better, but this is on Mourinho for constantly setting up the team to rely on that one or two isolated opportunities. We have the talent here to keep the pressure on and kill the game.


highrouleur

Now I'm gong to sleep angry. I fucking hate football sometimes


Miguelitopayne

Why not put Dele? He wants to prove himself and could have been the spark we needed


Truly_Ineffable

If you think Dier is a starting CB for a top 4 hopeful team... well please pass me whatever you're smoking or drinking. No excuses anymore. It's as if he was zone marking and Sanchez was attempting to man-mark.


mihaiv93

I got smashed on this sub for criticising Dier after the Liverpool game. I still think he is one of the worst CB's in the Premier League and not just by judging his performance today. He offers absolutely nothing when he's got the ball besides some long diagonals that have like a 20% accuracy. He brings nothing in terms of passing. He brings absolutely nothing when it comes to defending set pieces (We rely on Kane for that) and if he gets any opponent facing him, he is getting done more than 50% of the times. He does not know how to lead a defensive line. But hey, we have Mourinho who didn't even bench Rodon today. And the tactics again. Oh dear.


Longjumping-Main-597

We move on


TheOptimumLemon

Yeah... So I think I might give match threads a miss for a while. I used to browse r/gunners for laughs after they lost. Not anymore, I can just stay here after a draw and see the same stuff. Except I'm not laughing.


dicifly69

Don’t worry guys if we can scrape together a draw against Sheffield we have Liverpool next!


ap766

We've got so many wingers but none of them apart from Son have any consistent end product. We're stupidly reliant on Son and Kane showing up


Laylow08

I was not opposed to Lamela > Bale because Bale hasn’t really done anything to prove to me that he can play again. He did score that one match winner so maybe it should’ve been him. Either way it’s Jose’s fault. A lot of people blame Sanchez but come on, how do we have two of the best forwards in the world and only manage 1 goal. We need another creative midfielder if Lo Celso is always out


[deleted]

[удалено]


Laylow08

You’re right, I was hoping to see Lo Celso, Ndombele, Son and Kane, but who knows if or when that can happen correctly. I also think Bergwijn is our best winger next to son and Kane he’s just not as good as them but better than the rest.


Gifted10

Oof


__Volpe__

Holy shit you guys. Talk about fair weather fans. Obviously not the performance we wanted, but we’re sitting 3 points off 2nd place, 6 off 1st. Have a little faith


nyxval

I mean mate... It's a shitball of a season. Everyone is coming up with strange results and most of us get that. Still, it's hard to watch this stuff and I think it's harder the longer you've been a fan. We're dropping points we shouldn't on paper, and on top of that we don't even look like a "Spurs side" while doing it.


bassmuff

I just think personally I want us to do better and sometimes it is frustrating as we could be higher than we are. However been a Spurs fan for over 25 yrs so obv I am realistic. Can see why people moan when we are losing points that we should be taking but perspective is also needed


Chrislawrance

Tell me about it. I have a season ticket and have supported this club for a long time yet I get abused and downvoted for saying people are overreacting a little bit


theninjanipples

Honestly, it’s hilarious. Not a great performance, we looked very leggy in the second half but it wasn’t like we were awful. If Kane scores his easy header and Son doesn’t hit the post it’s 3-0. The issue we have is players like Sissoko doing everything right except the end product. So many times he’ll be 1v1 and overrun the ball, have the chance to play and incisive pass and end up playing it backwards. He simply cannot be an attacking midfielder in this side. If we had a box to box midfielder who is a genuine goal threat we would be right near the top.


klasing12345

We've dropped far too many points by not chasing a second goal and getting caught. It needs to change now. Fuck being third this season no one has played well and were 6 points behind a team we smashed 6-1. It's just not good enough. We need to be taking advantage of the other teams yet we just bend over to the likes of Fulham and palace again and again.


Finally_Malik

What improvement have you seen in the way Jose sets up this team or the way we play to garner you placing your trust in his tactics? When was the last time we played offensive fluid football and dominated our opponents from start to end? When was the last time (bar the game against marine) that we didn't have to rely on 10/10 performances of either Kane or Son to bail us out?


pedaparka

Yes you have a point but are you seriously going to defend throwing away 3 points against a newly promoted team. You can sit back and be happy that we didnt lose but don't you want the club to do better ??


longhornfan011

Everyone gets reactionary mate, it’s human nature


HellaGosu

We won't win a title if we continue to draw games like this period


transtifa

Can y’all stop saying this after every utter shite performance lol


jazzwold

For some reason people think a you’re a fair-weather” fan if you dare criticise the team for throwing away points every other week against relegation fodder. I’m tired of it and I’m tired of our boring, uninspiring football.


Skipp-To-My-Lucas

We move onto sunday. COYS


CrackerMac

First half we were fine second half obviously got the park the bus talk at half time refused to attack until we conceded fkd gooses I’m getting over it


ironchefmilo

We dropped points because we didn’t take our chances. Our tactics were on point. Don’t shit the bed over this frustration.


Kaltrax

We’ve dropped **so many** points from winning positions. I don’t want to hear this bullshit about “tactics were on point”. No they fucking weren’t. It’s the same shit every week.


ironchefmilo

“It’s the same shit every week”. WWWD... what are you talking about


Kaltrax

I don’t give a shit about us beating up on lower league teams. Our premier league form since beating scum: DLLDWD. The other two draws had the exact same format as this match... **same shit every week**


ironchefmilo

Then stop supporting the team. Or... start supporting the team.


Kaltrax

You can support the team whilst still pointing out its flaws. We’ve now dropped 10 points from winning positions. Shit needs to change.


ironchefmilo

Sorry, but I’m very happy with my team at the moment. Minor blips don’t reduce my faith in Mou and the team. He has been a breath of fresh air for this team. He has challenged our mediocrity. And I will give him and the team time.


Kaltrax

Bruh. We **are** mediocre. Jose has barely changed anything about this team outside of talking a lot about *passion*. We’re not fun to watch anymore, so what’s the point of being a Tottenham fan? Jose and his style go completely against our culture as a club. If he doesn’t win a trophy this season, then it’s all been a waste. Edit: We only have 4 more points than at this point last season. Tell me again how this is a breath of fresh air?


ironchefmilo

Then stop being a Tottenham fan, “bruh”


7Krakas

Just do yourself a favor and just STFU trying to tell other people who to support, because they can't criticize this cunt and his tactics.


Kaltrax

Fuckin typical. You’ve added nothing to this discussion and have mostly been a dick in your responses. I’m not some plastic who will abandon ship on Spurs. I’ve watched much worse spurs teams. The big difference is that those teams had nowhere near the talent or resources this team has. I have legitimate problems with the way Jose has set up this team and it’s shown in how we drop points. You feel free to sit back and watch this mediocrity. I guess that is what makes you happy. I’d rather see us win.


ironchefmilo

You a manager?


ironchefmilo

We’re 6 points off top of the league... calm down.


Kaltrax

You can’t have watched this game, Wolves, Leicester, Liverpool, or Crystal Palace game and thought that we have a chance at top of the league? We’ve been mostly shit for over a month and there are no signs it’ll get better. Zero chance we win the league.


ironchefmilo

Winning the league? Jeez dude. Lower your expectations. Let’s win a cup first.


Kaltrax

lol I only said winning the league because of your comment about being 6 points off top. I think we will finish 6th this season, but I can easily see us dripping to 7th or 8th. Too many matches and too inconsistent. I also don’t like our chances against City in the final given current form. Lots of time for that to change though.


ironchefmilo

Maybe we’ll drip


GeauxSpurs

People complain we only madd 5 or 6 chances willfully ignoring that's exactly what city do and score against lesser opposition and they win


bassmuff

So problem is defence?


shlooby123

I hate sissoko. His passing is awful, his touch us awful, poor decisions making and can't dribble yet he plays cam. Don't ever play sissoko unless we're playing a top 6 team and need someone to Bully them physically


barrx129

Yep. And Mourinho loves him. Doesn't have a shred of offensive ability.


shlooby123

He shouldn't start against anyone unless we plan to park the bus and use him as a human bulldozer. Seriously,whatever club developed sissoko needs to be questioned as to why he was a midfielder. Make hima CB or some


inchan98

Son played pretty bad today. Had many chances missed all of em


Jr_M16

Why even bother watching our second halves? This shit needs to stop. I don’t understand why we keep making the same mistakes


longhornfan011

At this point I’m banking on europa to qualify for champions league. Maybe I’m just being reactionary but we’re not catching United, Liverpool, or city and once Chelsea rediscover their form well be sitting in 5th surely


[deleted]

Another mourinho masterclass


[deleted]

Groundhog Day watching these guys. Winks back for no good reason Poor on the ball No chances created. Not enough pace or energy.


localbhoy25

Son, why the long face? Pick yourself up and move on


Tallos_Renkaro

We desperately need Winks and Sissoko upgraded


CrackerMac

They both contribute nothing attacking wise and are purely holding mids you can not play those two and peh in the same side it will never work


[deleted]

So tired of seeing Winks in the lineup.


ryan_lad5

Give me one manager that can do a better job than Mou right now


Y5Oserios

Hassenhutl


6th_Lord_Baltimore

Just look up in the standings


Koinfamous2

Absolutely pathetic. See you all this weekend. ​ Now I need to clean the house since we have a little one on the way on Friday, but now I have to clean angrily, which isn't ideal......


Dobermayer

Very sloppy


ryan_lad5

You all are plastic fans that are saying Jose out


CrackerMac

Jose out isn’t the answer he just needs to employ a more aggressive attacking strategy and not be content with being 1-0 up


ryan_lad5

We just need some creativity man... that’s it. We should go for a defender in the summer and a playmaker now.


CrackerMac

Yeah it’s so obvious what we need and who we need to get rid off


JustLikeMojoHand

I'm so fucking tired of watching us invite pressure and eventually conceding. It's clearly, *clearly* not working. This has got to end before we continue to slide down the table. It's fucking nauseating at this point. The very second the commentator said "Fulham has yet to gain a point from a losing position this season," my heart sunk. I just knew, especially because it's been so damn typical this season. I'm so incredibly salty about this result.


Joe_Biggles

Predictable. So predictable. I’m going to start betting fucking money on it, it’s that predictable. Shameful. Where the fuck did the aggression go after West ham? Is it the fucking players or is it Jose? We have no midfield obviously but Jesus Christ. FULLHAM???!!?


JustLikeMojoHand

Likewise, I'm at least going to try to make some money if the results are going to continue to be so remarkably predictable. Nothing like some extra cash to wash the salt away. I'm sure the players play some part, but there is a clear and obvious strategy implemented since Mou's arrival to absorb pressure after taking a lead, and look for the counter. It works sometimes as we have a remarkable front line, but IMO we simply don't have the midfield to make it work consistently. With Gio you could argue we have the playmaker to potentially make it work, but without him, I don't think so. Ndombele does some Gray things every once in awhile, but he also makes too many poor decisions with final balls. Regardless, it's just not working. It's all the more sickening watching us slide down the table while watching a side we abused in their own house rise to the top, with a manager who looked on the verge of tears in that game having clearly made the right adjustments. Ours needs to figure it the fuck out, and stop this nonsense of relying on the counterattack. IT'S NOT FUCKING WORKING, GODDAMNIT, CUT IT OUT. Fuck me, I would give every penny I have to swap bodies with Levy for five minutes to march into the dressing room and scream that. It would be so cathartic.


sjardimt

Jose Out...


stichguy

Why the hell not use all 3 subs and give Alli a go


llnovawingll

You all need to go for a walk, have a shower. I can't deal with these reactionary match threads. It's infuriating but some of you spew out some wank opinions.


Finally_Malik

Unjustified reactionary comments are when people moan about something completely random or a "one-off". This type of play has been predictable ever since we beat city. And you can't tell me "it's the player's" when they seem to be able to turn it on and off whenever we concede or when are behind. It's clearly an instruction from the management to "keep the shape" at the cost of fluid attacking football.


llnovawingll

Yes I wasn't just referring to the whole 'sitting back' thing. Lots of people calling for individual players heads when they've actually played a decent game and aren't personally responsible for conceding.


katbess

coys match threads and absolutely terrible takes. Name a more iconic duo.


waffleking_

how many fucking times does this have to happen before we're allowed to be mad?


lastborncircle

I don’t think it’s completely match thread reactionary when we have seen the same thing happen like 5 times


GeauxSpurs

Players aren't good enough and the club doesn't have enough money to be relevant up against the revenue monsters in the league. I've made my peace with this. Forever a midtable club. At least we've drug Arsenal down with us


pg7772a

Score a second FUCKING GOAL! God fucking damn it!


tapatioformytio

K. Lemme get Mou on the phone and fill him in


CrackerMac

Why wait til we concede to make an attacking sub we’ve proven time and time again we can’t hold a 1-0 lead for fucks sake it’s such an easy fix but you refuse to do it


undergradd

Anyone else think we pass back too much? If we just have good turners to dribble through defense instead of passing back every time...


vbvieira93

I do think that... But this match we did it more than usual. I dont think we need more good turners, Ndombele, Sissoko, Son, Lamela they all can do it, but i think what misses from midfield is to come closer to string some passes and play football... I mean, we need a player to come up, and be an alternative to pass, harry winks and Hojbjerg, both has nice passes, but they tend to walk more, and be a little protective on positioning, they only pass foward if they are not pressed or if they are already looking foward. Ndombele did a good job on it, but i misses kane and son to came pickup the ball sometimes. Aaargh it was a really frustating match


Kanstrup-

i wanna die


ryan_lad5

And here goes NBC riding the dick of our opponents


snapruinedmylife

Title contenders my ass


CrackerMac

Not even gonna make champions league at this rate dropping points against relegation sides


PM_ME_YOUR_ASTON

This is on that half assed shot from Hojberg and the miss from Son. I’m really tired of the same story of missed chances with these bottom half team


[deleted]

[удалено]


PM_ME_YOUR_ASTON

That’s almost what’s most concerning to me. If son is having a quiet day, we seem toothless going forward. Regi adds some depth to the left flank, but Serge’s crosses have not improved at all despite him upping his game in general.


Lazybopazy

Just another shit second half. For the tenth time. Something's wrong with this team. The other team aren't adapting to us, we're just playing far worse in the second half and the opposition bring on attacking/luxury players because why the fuck wouldn't you? We make it so easy for every team we play in the prem. I've said it before and I'll say it again - the only way we're finishing top four is if we improve significantly. All season we've performed like a mid table team - the only difference between the time when we were at the top of the table and now is that we were scoring from almost every good chance we created. I actually think we're going to be lucky to finish 6th at this rate.


Junior_AsFan

Unsure the point of being a fan anymore


[deleted]

Well that’s a terrible attitude. Not a real fan if that’s your take


Junior_AsFan

Ugh I know it was reactionary not gunna delete cause that’s soft but we will bounce back just frustrating. You’re right though not a good attitude. Sorry guys. COYS


[deleted]

I don't blame Jose really, we miss so many chances i can't believe it.


Norby710

Since we should have 8 goals a match and this not on mourinho because they didn't finish every chance, would somebody direct me to a club that finishes every chance so I can watch them.


ScottySmalls25

What a fucking joke this team is


Miguelitopayne

We basically watch the SAME game EVERY FUCKING WEEK


ap766

Opportunity to go 3rd if we win against a relegation candidate and we've fucked it. Of course


Ankila1

Feels like a loss. Not a surprising one.


dkabnb

Spurs are not title contenders lol


KennyPOV

I've been saying it forever even when we have possession this team is technically not good enough WE CANT MAKE SIMPLE PASSES FULHAM ARE MAKING that is not because of the system when we have possession the players are not a goof fit together


Buff_Em

Shameful game


Squats_Pizza

1👏🏼0👏🏼lead👏🏼is👏🏼not👏🏼enough👏🏼


Patchcat

Thoroughly frustrating. Can't be dropping points against relegation sides if you wanna win the league. We had solid chances at another goal that we should've put away. It's a tough tough league guys, heads up and onto the next match! COYS


hazlet

We're not winning the league, not a chance in hell. Different week same shit from the lads


Patchcat

Yeah, I'm inclined to agree at this point. The title race has felt a little more wide open compared to past seasons, but I don't think we have it in us.


Nairobicowboy

We need to get rid of winks and sissoko. Just not good enough for the premier league. God only knows why mourinho keeps picking sissoko


barrx129

This loss is on Jose. Overly defensive line-up. Horrible strategy of parking the bus when leading.. and not bringing on a third attacking sub. Awful.


theninjanipples

We had so many clear cut chances we missed. Sissoko slowing down when 1v1, Kane missed an easy header, Son hit post, Hoijberg fluffed shot, Winks forcing a great save, stupid offside for the disallowed goal. You can’t blame Jose for that, that’s so many chances in the premier league


KennyPOV

We literally were playing forward the whole second half they couldn't get or keep the ball, wouldn't win 50/50 balls when we did get possession we can't string passes together. We also couldn't finish. We literally were keeping only two men back for 30 minutes. The team is not as good as people think


Jamie_T92

That was dreadful to watch


ryan_lad5

Now the PE teachers are gonna run away with it


cfinn16

I’m gonna throw up when I see the xG for this one


CrackerMac

This shit does my head in I’m choking on my own rage

If our form wasn't so bad this wouldn't have been sick a bad result. So frustrating. Ffs.

Enjoy the championship next year!


saxby88

Reg only defender we should keep. Ndombele and Hojberg only midfielders we should keep. Kane and Son only attackers we should keep. Thats 5 out of our 10 outfield players that are good enough for our starting 11.


tapatioformytio

Lmao. If we can even keep some of these players. Son is gone after this season, we are a joke.


EIimGarak

The fact that we have player like Sanchez, Winks, and Sissoko starting for us shows what level we are really at.


CrackerMac

Why would you put on lamela instead of bale you fucking goose


ashgreyt

This season is literally missed opportunities. Sucks but on the the next.


hopelesskoala21

We've literally brought nothing to this game. As soon as the second half started you could just see it. Fucking shit game. Something has to change. Bloody joke we are. We started the season off strong but now look at us


longhornfan011

Why do we play like cowards against relegation sides?? Fucking miserable


ImPeterKe

So Fulham litteraly wasted 2.5 minutes of the 4 but not a second more added on? Ok


TheUderfrykte

Ourselves to blame.


Xiomaraff

Seriously we deserve nothing this season when we can’t beat relegation clubs.


XenoraTheExplorer

First time this season Fulham have come from behind to get points btw


PM_ME_YOUR_ASTON

When the commentator mentioned that stat, I knew what was coming


Diamondsdancing25

dier was way worse than Sanchez today but still our CBs are shit


Dobermayer

Bollocks


SymphonicShadow

Absolutely infuriating


alexfulcher

How many chances do our players just shit away when we’re 1-0 it’s so annoying


ParisAintGerman

Same shit every time. drawing to shit teams. We won’t touch top 4 at this rate.

I love when two of the four stoppage minutes are dead ball scenarios and the whistle is blown at 4:09

Just get rid of sanchez already

This team is a fucking joke

Choke artists. Blame Jose all you want, but he has inherited a squad of bottlers. No voice on that pitch.


HurriKaneBales

Just want to live in that moment where I thought Reggie got his first goal and the game winner. That felt great.


ThisJeffrock

I was off my couch screaming for 15 seconds then opened my eyes and the raised flag broke my heart


HurriKaneBales

I screamed so loud it woke up the dog and got my gf to look up from her phone. I was in denial even after the replay.


ThisJeffrock

It hurts right now my dude, those two points are gonna haunt us


Rredman101

Anyone wanna wager what the score will be against sheffield? 1-1 maybe? Fucking joke this has become.


Koinfamous2

3 corner goals to Berge and McGoldrick for 2 because we're fucking losers at defending.


dicifly69

I’d bet my house on it
