He had a bad year last year - it just took until January for the results to start catching up.

Yes, you've mentioned that. But regardless, in the end, we got to the CL final. However bad his year was, we still got the highest stage we have ever been in.

We failed at that stage, admittedly. But that is success - as much as we can expect at Spurs. That excuses our inadequacies last season.

Totally bought it on himself. Naieve in the extreme.

Levy really didn't help him. If players are left off a pre-season tour, the chairman needs to make sure that those players are sold by the time the team returns.

That just hid the performances. To describe our run to the final as a stumble would probably be generous and our run in to 4th was worse.

If Poch stubbornly sticks to it at the absolute least Dier or Skipp(Wanyama is a right off) have to sit, Winks is not a defensive midfielder if we are classifying him as one now then frankly he is brick in that role, he needs to be next to Ndombele in the 2, with this formation every game we play against anyone not parking the bus is going to be like a basketball game wide open and our season is going to look like last with double digit league defeats.

Not really one o want to disect all night to be honest. Slod in, feet up, made contact, in the box - it's asking the ref to make a decision, and one that would regularly go against imo.

Would have been weak, but I wouldn't have ry argued it...

Imo without the benefit of the replay he slid, then Coman tumbled over him. That delay gave coman time to select which dive he went for
 
I am more disheartened when we play badly. Tonight was an embarrassment, no doubt. But if it gets Poch to re-think our whole defensive shape then that's maybe not such a bad thing.

This isn't about opinions, I simply cannot see a scenario where he survives that game .. nothing to do with fans now

Playing in the CL group stages - where we should still qualify - is one of our lowest points.

Yes we lack a proper midfield at the moment. We are too open. The manager needs to address it. I'm not sure how we should line up. Both Winks and Sissoko are good, but not elite CL quality. Maybe Sissoko/Dier screening with Winks/Eriksen and Ndombele/LeCelco in front would work better.

We conceded 7 goals at home. I can't recall that ever happening in my lifetime. We were so ridiculously open. In a way no profession side should ever be. I'd rather not be in the Champions League than suffer that brick.

The manager should be ashamed of himself. I know I'm embarrassed by that. If he's not, hes further from planet earth than I thought he was.
 
Think Poch has bad formation blindness or some similar ailment. I really don't think that he thinks the diamond is the/a problem.
We need an anti-diamond song.
