Please can we get rid of this tactically clueless muppet now FFS.Enough is enough, to bring Carroll on and change the whole shape to accommodate one player and force Chico into the wing was ridiculous. Sakho or even Ayew was the swap when Ant got injured.
It's the same old st, playing two defensive midfielders with no positional discipline meant the back line was exposed again and again .... like it has for two seasons.
Kane was magnificent, constantly he still managed to pick the ball up when he was up top on his own against two, his movement and touch as superb.Ali's work rate was off the scale,frankly they schooled us.
Never got the Spurs hate, but did today, they were like Leeds of old at times, and the ref let them get away with it.
The two late goals papered over the cracks, hopefully for the last time.

Said to my lad at 0-3 that it was probably Slav’s last match - but as sjc said, the two goals may have given him a stay of execution.

Just got back. Wot a shambles. As has been said, we were the better side till Antonio went off, then everything changed. Clumsy pass by Carrol caused 1st goal, then we were on the back foot. Cresswell was dire.

We seem to under perform. When I look at our squad and the team we put out today it looks strong to me, yet we don't seem to be able to get it all together.

So that comes down to.... the manager and his tactics. I honestly don't think the players have a clue what they're trying to achieve.

I've always been very pro SB but perhaps you have a point.

Who would you replace him with?

Pardew?

I've been saying this for a while. You need rid of him.

Garry monk or Eddie howe would be perfect.

The real problem you have is unsolvable though. The owners.

I've been saying it for a year ...
Conceding a rough average of two goals a game for the last 68 games ( look it up) has nothing to do with the owners.

Couldn't agree more, he is tactically inept. I didn't agree at first, but it is becoming more and more glaringly obvious. It's also embarrassing that he gives interviews saying our two best strikers cannot play together. Find a fking system within which they can both play, then, you idiot! He needs to go, now.

I think someone earlier said Pardew has unfinished business at West Ham and I, for one, liked him and thought he was unfairly dismissed. The Dave's however are known to like Rafa Benitez, the word being that he was within hours of taking the job before Bilic and then blew us out when Real Madrid approached him at the 11th hour. Apparently Dave's are ready to pay up the £5m contract release clause and Rafa feels he owes us. He certainly comes across as a professional manager, what do you lot think?

Wouldn't want Pardew back,he can't organise a defence either.
Can't see why Rafa would leave now he's a folk hero up there, and they're realistically a bigger club.
