Players need to look at themselves. Dembele awful. Dier is a joke every single time he plays in CB. Trippier is pathetic against any good team. Tbh the team just is not up for it this season
----------------------------------------------------------------------
On a positive note, Vertonghen, Rose, Son, Kane, Eriksen gave them something to worry about.
They doubled up on Son.
I didn't think Dembele was that bad.
Why Trippier was preferred to Aurier is beyond me.
Trippier was beaten for speed every time.
But the really weak link in the middle was Winks.
He didn't belong on this pitch.
And that gave them the midfield space to run at our back four.

That said, if we hadn't given away that first goal, it might have been a different game.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If City hadn’t missed so many chances, it would have been a different game

Spurs were shocking today, they made City look good. The defending was back to the bad old days of Cement Boots.

I hate to break it you that City are actually good on their own terms!

You know your Spurs, Sandy. But we can't be expected to outplay a billion quid of well managed, well motivated superstars with a decent manager and effective game plan.

I think we could of played better. Personally, i would of been more defensive and hit it long more. We still would of lost though, like the hoof ball masters United did.

They would not have had many of those chances without Winks.

Well Spurs did against Real Madrid, so no excuses for all these abject away performances in the Prem.

Good Afternoon Gents

Wishing you all a very Merry Xmas!!!

Right, down to business, as you all know we've had some poor results recently, however, we normally do quite well over the festive period and I'm confident we can get a good run going starting today.

Burnley have been mighty impressive this season, but i'm backing us to get the win - 1-2... COYS!!

Ankle injury

Son and Ali in same team dont work-hope iu am wrong. chuck in Sissoko and Ericksen-we are asking for trouble against a hard working team.

Happy with the team but would have played Lamela for sissokk

Work hard is only thing sissoko does well. Why poch keeps playing him

We have to match Burnley`s work rate and physicality, one of Dembele or Sissoko has to play in Wanyama`s absence

Lamela’s been out for a year...

Alright FBK, lads

Hard game today but after the Man City game I am expecting a good performance and it looks like he has set up to attack.

I share the concerns about Sissoko, Worried with that selection we wont hold the ball up in midfield when pressing for possession.

Even though they are above us, that line up should scrape a win, not sure if that is my head or my heart saying that though.

Poch and his changes to the full backs again, what a joke. And three changes overall to the back four. No wonder Spurs have lost the art of keeping clean sheets.

Anyhow let`s see how we get on today. I have reasonably good vibes. Just need every player to put in a shift.

Yeah because Trippier really made a case for a run in the team last Sunday...

Think Aurier should’ve started vs city and Trippier start this match but hey ho.

Get an early goal and I’ll be confident of a win.
