I thought I saw glimpses of what we could do with this team. We’ve carved them open in multiple times. Lo Celso was an absolute master of the midfield. The best player by far. He was dragged to the rings and that reduced his effectiveness thereafter.

Need a striker badly. A target upfront
Onwards and upwards.

Spurs badly need a real ball winner to play alongside Lo Celso. Winks is not up to it, and Ndombele is always injured. A new midfield enforcer is badly needed, one that can break up the opposition attacks. New striker and left back also urgently needed. Jose obviously knows that as well, so expect some movement in his window, with his main purchases probably waiting until the Summer.

Big clearout coming up I can see that happening. To many lightweight and injury prone players, need players with more strength.

In my view, this was a better performance from yonks!

There was a plan and some cohesion. Yet some players are like square pegs in round holes.

Agreed. Dier is painful to watch.

Spurs currently have to many lightweight players that are easily brushed off the ball. Lamela, Moura, Son, Dele, Winks, etc

3 months ago we had a very good squad of internationals and it was all Poch's fault they were under performing, now today we have a lightweight squad and need a clear out.

I don't get this argument at all?

The rot set in under Poch and Jose should be given a bit of time to try and sort it out. As I've said many times I don't know if he is the right fit for us but I'm happy to give him a chance.

We've hardly set the world alight recently but we are 8 places higher in the table than we were when Poch left and are still in the Cup and cl.

Great gate again last night over 58k against the bottom team for a mid week game.

Spurs need a massive clearout, yes Spurs have lots of Internationals, but most are not stepping up to the plate. So you need to change them.

Three months ago Spurs were heading towards the bottom three, they now sit 6th, so whilst still not brilliant, a lot better than it was three months ago, but changes are clearly needed.

Exactly my thoughts mate, we know there is a major rebuild needed, the team of four seasons ago is finished. Shame a lot of our fans cannot see that. Toby, Verts, Rose, Dier etc are just not going to get better, they all need replacing over the next season or two.

Aurier did ok but Lo Celso was the best on the park last night. Well done to Lloris as well, didn't get too many asks but was pretty assured for a change. Son, Lucas and Lamela were very weak. Not a penalty for me, there was clear air between the feet on supposed contact and I thought the number 14, should have been red carded for that tackle on Lamela. Irrelevant it hit Erics calf, if that was a side on tackle, his leg would have been snapped clean through. The guys foot was 12" off the ground, studs showing and he left it there in the slide.

Son was awful yet again, despite his goal from half a yard. I credit him being in right place at right time though. However that dumb red card which facked is over over Xmas seems to have taken all the momentum out his game. Probably serves him right for being a petulant caaaant in the Chelsea game. He gets an absolute free ride from our fans because he scores a worldy 3 times a season.

It is rumored that 6 Prem teams are after Danny Rose....
So, if you want Davies as a replacement ......
beware what you wish for.
Personally I think Rose has a couple of good years left, and he's a lot better than Davies.
