I said it on a couple of threads yesterday - it feels like we're just a mid-table standard team now.
West Ham did all they could not to score and managed two against us, the Bournemouth game was an even, end to end one and could've gone either way, Olympiacos are a pub side and yesterday we were completely outplayed.
Our stats are in no way indicative of a top four side, so you can't put any of it down to bad luck. We're conceding more shots than ever. Our PL form this season is W5, D5, L5, and it's been like that for a while. The absolute best we can hope for this season is fifth and that's optimistic.
Unfortunately I can't see Mourinho improving us much, and would be shocked if he's still here to see next season out. As a couple of said on here, with his salary and prestige, I expect him to be hounded out pretty quickly if success doesn't come fast, and rightly so.
And surely, surely, Kane & Son won't stick around beyond the end of next season if Mourinho hasn't won anything.
Other than that, everything is great.
It Is What It Is

The honeymoon period is well and truly over.

Yep. I find myself driving home from work feeling sad about us not winning anything under Poch.

More importantly, why are you driving home from work at 9 o’clock in the morning ?

shhh, get back to crying over Poch.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No, I’ve moved on to #JoseOut now.
Do try and keep up.

Jose has a 75% win rate this season.

Just not in the big games when it actually matters.
Top 4? He clearly didn’t want it enough.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Away in the CL needing a win to guarantee to qualify for 2nd round....done.
Away in a London derby against a team who notoriously up their game against us more than any other game in their season...done.
He's lost one game. A tough away fixture.
As my good friend Thudd likes to say; "it's way too early to call, so let's make a call anyway".

You weren’t away in the Champions League, you were at home and 2-0 in 20 mins.

Edbo, sorry mate, but this is a very depressing negative article. There is absolutely plenty of scope for improvement, yes there are positions that need improving, but there are still some real quality players in the Spurs side.
I am much more upbeat now the manager has been changed, that things will improve over the next season or two.
I don`t get articles like this being posted after just two weeks of a new manager. Ridiculous.

There's still plenty of quality in the squad, I mean we got to a champions league final last year. But, yes, the problems are huge. We have top players leaving in the summer on a free, a chairman who won't invest and a manager who is past it and will implement hoof ball. Very bleak times ahead.

We aint fecking bottom of the National League. Bleak times ahead, get a grip fella.

Things will change when Levy recruits some top players, most of us know that Pochettino over achieved with the squad he had given to him, Mourinho might change it but it means ripping apart this squad and starting again in 2 years this team will be unrecognisable from the Pochettino's one .
