No he came on because we needed to create and score goals, no one argues with the fact Sissoko doesn't really do that. Should be looking closer to Dele and Eriksen and why the hell they have been so below far, and have been for some time.....

Oh please, if Sissoko had missed Eriksens chance you would not be making such excuses. When Sissoko has messed up shots on his weaker foot, he is berated and Eriksen missed an absolute sitter no matter how you dress it up....

Oh please. I've seen more than enough excuse making for Sissoko to know that he would have plenty of excuses made for him.
I thought the Eriksen chance was more difficult than it first looked by some fairly objective standards. I would have argued the same had it been Sissoko.
Not at all, he should have scored. But had he missed Eriksens chance he would have been torn to pieces for it, you can claim you would have said the same for Sissoko all you like but I doubt you would have and I certainly know most posters on here wouldn’t of. Eriksen missed a sitter end of....

It's a weak link game.
Sissoko is by far our weakest link.

Eriksens chance was big, but the ball came almost shot at him, hard for him to adjust his body in time. Sissoko had a one v one, could just slot it in, and you know, he finished but keeper saved, it happens, and could happen to any player. It's more his all around team play that lets him down, and the team down. He can't seem to place a simple short pass to a team mate right if he's under just a little bit of pressure. You just need to be able to handle that in the Premier league.

Was more disappointed by Alli's tame shot. A little harder to execute than Sissoko's chance maybe. With Sissoko the fact he got his shot off and forced a double save - keeper then off the line - means it wasn't so bad. What was terrible is how weak his mentality is. After not scoring that he looked so sorry for himself. Instead of fighting harder it seemed to confirm everyone's views on Sissoko - his own too - that he's not good enough. Then he played like he wasn't good enough after the shot, he didn't feel he deserved to be on the pitch.

Lamela replaced Eriksen, not Sissoko.

Common reaction to Sissoko.

More like hyperbole at least.
Did we sell him yet?

ITK - tomorrow there will be a picture of him in Poch's office, Poch's arm around his shoulder as he signs an extended 5 year contract!!!

In about 10 years time, Scara will turn up at New WHL for a legends tour, to find Moussa waiting for him, alone. They'll then get lost together in the bowels of the stadium never to be seen again. (I'd add something about how close they'd become but I don't want to summon the homophobia tsar.) The end.
Whilst saying that Spurs finally have discovered the final missing jigsaw piece in the team, the water boy.

Obviously. Only with Sissoko could a comment like that be seen as anything other than hyperbole. I suppose I had to hyperbole even harder to make it obvious even with Sissoko.
Though in terms of end product (goals and assists) they're now both at a total of one in the league.
Er yeah, because that’s why Poch puts Sissoko in the team - for goals and assists. He’s there to be an engine, get physical,link with the right back and break from deep and give it to the more creative players....

Worked a treat against Leicester. So many quality passes to our creative players in dangerous positions I lost count.
Remember when he played that perfectly weighed, perfectly aimed pass for Aurier to cross to Llorente? No, right, that was Lamela.
I think Pochettino is mainly putting Sissoko in the team because others have been injured. I'm guessing Lamela will join the list of players that, returning from injury, rather quickly replace Sissoko in our line ups.
