Disagree. Performance was fine. Dele and a moment switching off at the corner cost us the tie. The performance was pretty good.

If this were a last eight game I would be annoyed, realistically it was always a very long shot to win this tournament.

You say the side and club have a mental problem, then later on you say poch has installed a positive mentality at this club?

How the actual fack was the performance last night ok? Facking conceded two facking goals to a facking bunch of facking part time fackers, discipline went to facking pot with facking Delli being a facking fack.

It certainly was Not facking ok.

I thought we played very well, especially once down to 10 men. All over them for the entire 2nd half

I liken it to City away. That day we got away with an undeserved point, when we should have been comfortably beaten.

This was the reverse. Annoying, but sheet happens.

it was a good high intensive effort, but failed because as I see it 2 mistakes from Dier, and the reason we lost the Tie is because of Team management in the first leg

Last nights result was a disgrace and it's glossed over a mid table Belgian side, with a makeshift defence and rotated side who had scraped a draw at the weekend three wins in fourteen games. Their best centre back shunted to right back one of their best players coming off the bench and scoring. No other English side would of struggled.

Next season will be the same young squad they will learn blah blah blah. For 10 years we have an aggregate position of 5/6 place. Isn't it time we progressed from that, we surely want more than that. Pool, united, Arsenal,city and Chelsea have all put trophies in the cabinet. We have one trophy.

People laugh at Arsenal we are worse with our groundhog days.

We will have the best stadium in the country and arguably the best training complex with one of the best youth systems we are so great off the field but on it we have to stop this period of stagnation.

D&D

I would add:

Woeful finishing by Kane
An awful OG by Kane
Alli's disgusting 'tackle' and red.

I hope he gets a big ban and misses a big CL tie next season. Maybe that is the only way he will learn his lesson . Absolutely horrendous challenge, one of the worst you can inflict

There is no way in hell we should be losing to Gent over two legs, even if it was a friendly tie. It's yet another embarrassing cup defeat with Poch and it's beginning to grind my balls a little, I have to say.

I might start Tottenham fan TV. A few poor results and the meltdown will be akin to Arsenal

Ok let me rephrase. Poch has installed a positive mentality in the sense of the direction the club is going and obviously there are a lot of positive aspects of his management I.e. Our defence is better than its ever been since I have been a supporter but we are still that same tottenham bottle job club that just can't seem to shake off this losers mentality of ours and we consistently mess up in all big important games and competitions when the going gets tough.



For people that are disagreeing with my "we done well " comment. I'm as annoyed as all of you and already explained losing to a pub side over 2 legs is unacceptable but we did actually play well last night. 2 horrendous mistakes cost us once again but we totally dominated that. One thing I will say is our conversion rate is beyond pathetic and has to change.

I was at the game, we absolutely dominated and our approach play at times was electric. Two moments of madness cost us - Kane own goal and Dele's stupid stupid challenge, the boy is a fantastic talent but he should be ashamed of himself, he let his side down.

Kane was awful, after his hat trick at the weekend I thought he would flourish last night. Walker's crossing was woeful. We are so lop sided when Rose isn't playing, Davies isn't dynamic or quick enough to be a wing back, he receives the ball and plays the safe option all the time.

Wanyama was superb and Dembele was very good too.

Even with 10 men we dominated but we just weren't clinical enough.

Brilliant atmosphere at Wembley but again we made bad decisions and faltered when it matters.

I'd go along with all that apart from Kane being awful. I actually think he had a good game. The own goal was unfortunate but his hold up play and through balls were at times excellent. Reminded me of him during his first season with us.

Kane failed in the area we needed him most - putting the ball away.

He had one good chance and the rest were half chances as far as I recall. He also provided opportunities for others with some great play. Like I say he was not awful. Awful would be Alli and Dier.

posted on 24/2/17

One good chance missed, half chances missed, and an own goal.

That is exactly the opposite of what we needed

He'll look rubbish if you ignore the other side of his game. He provided 3 good opportunities for Eriksen and Son, 2 of which should have been converted. They were both better than the good chance he had.

Think you're being harsh Ledley.

Dier made an awful mistake for their 2nd, and the chance just before it, but was he awful all game? We were pretty defensively sound for the large part, and were throwing bodies forward with 10 men.

Kane's howlers - the great chance missed and his OG - were the difference between drawing 2-2 and winning 3-1.

It happens, can't blame him. A mixture of defensive bloopers, poor finishing and a moment of poor discipline did for us in what was a good performance box-to-box

The defence weren't called into action that much but when they/he was, he failed. He was outshone by Toby and Vert around him performance wise, and to be honest, the time he came up for a corner only to be unprepared and looking at the floor as the ball was coming in piissed me off. Who does that in a game of this importance? Maybe my opinion of him is overly influenced by that moment.

Kane was heavily involved throughout. Yes he messed up for the own goal and that chance, but his hold up play was very good and he put 2 chances on a plate for others. He's had much worse games this season.

posted on 24/2/17

So a defence not being tested in the box for the game is a reason to dismiss a defender, one playing in a team with 10 men for more than a half?

Do you not think he contributed towards Llorisg not having much to do?

He made one mistake that led to a goal. The same as Kane.

Even if Dier had not made that error, Kane's meant we were out at 2-1 anyway.

At the end of the day, Kane's main job for us is to score goals. He ended up in negative figures.

If you want to base a bad individual performance on one or two errors with his bread and butter in Dier, then you have to do the same for Kane

"Dier made an awful mistake for their 2nd, and the chance just before it, but was he awful all game?"

Add bad positioning meaning he lost the header leading to th first goal. Oh and completely losing his head at the end but that's standard for him lately.

He was easily our worst player on the nightl bar Dele.

Personally don't want him in the starting line up for a while.

Complete overrreaction. We were stretched, committing players forward in a gung ho manner. One man is to blame for that, Dele Alli. If anyone is to be scapegoated and dropped it would be him.

That we had 23 shots and only 3 on target a huge contributing factor. We literally could not have gone through if we had scored with all of our shots on target. Woeful from the forwards

Added to a woeful first leg from them too
