Nice to hear 2 Tottenham Boys making all the noise in the Sky Sports studio for a change…

A shame we had Alan Fukcing Smith on commentary again though
 
We’re not down yet by a long shot. The margin for error has become finer but I love how RDZ is talking and acting, having Bentancur back is huge, Simons showed he can create for us.

We can still stay up. It’s just become a bit more nerve shredding but we’re still fighting.

Gut punch today but to quote Rocky Balboa, life isn’t about how hard you can hit, it’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward.

The turn will come. Keep the faith.

Today actually felt for the first time in ages like we were fighting. It might be too late but I’ m still holding onto a bit of hope. Next week is pretty huge though.
 
Honestly, I think that performance should make all of us extremely angry. Not at the players, because they gave absolutely everything. But at the decisions that led us to this point.

We’ve been told for the last year that these players aren’t good enough, can’t play high intensity, aggressive, possession football. And they showed today that they could. Micky looked like a monster again. What a surprise! We’re playing a high line. Xavi looked like the player we thought we were signing because he actually had options around him. And overall, the team looked cohesive and more than capable of playing this way against a club fighting for the top 6.

I think it’s an absolute disgrace that it was allowed to get to this point, by deciding to implement a style that highlighted none of our players strengths, all in aid of some misguided attempt to reset the culture.
 
That was rubbish from Danso. He just needs to get rid of it. FFS.

Problems started before the mistake. We're not smart. Solanke has the ball two mins earlier, just head to the corner and shield the ball!
Palhina cannot, cannot, let Minteh get that ball across or away. Yes, Danso's mistake was awful but he is a limited player who is always heavy-footed and awkward when running onto balls/into moments like that; IF just does what he CAN do there (welly it) great. But fatigue will do that.
There's been a lot of naivety in that final 5 minutes which has led to the mistake. Let's face it, we got away with one a minute before on the back-post...
 
And who would you suggest then marks the man Porro ends up having to mark?
The issue starts because we get pulled around (Danso gets dragged across, VdV on no-one) and again just look at Muani's uselessness. No help whatsoever.

At least Werner worked his socks off, even if he couldn’t hit a barn door.

Whomever is responsible for us wasting £12m (in loan fees plus wages) on Muani should be the first one out the door this summer!

If Porro isn't in that narrow, then Danso steps back, and everyone is covered. VdV still has the player closest to him. Porro was the issue here.
