You're leaving your back door open slightly.

For others to try and creep into.

Capitulation from start to finish
Dreadful marking,defending and shooting,
The tactics have been sussed and need some change or heading south is the only route for us.

Non-existant midfield.

It comes to something when after all our signings our most consistent and reliable defensive midfielder is still Hojberg.

We need to break the bank and get Conor Gallagher in the summer.

Smash Villa 4-0 and then lose to Fulham.

Totally baffling and yet utterly predictable, all at the same time.

This is the story of Tottenham.

Well I would if I supported a plastic team and got my hot takes from Spitty.

At least try not to be so generic.

Think of it as a 6% entertainment increase.

What a difference a VDV makes unfortunately. New guy isn’t anywhere near as good.

Yeah clear to see now we are a top team when we have VDV in, he seems to be just that good.

I thought he actually did ok when he was on the ball. His distribution was ok, and he seems to have an ability to ghost past players when going forward which was unexpected.

The communication between him and Udogie was non-existent though which meant gaps opened up and we were exposed.

I wouldn't put all the blame on Dragusin though, we were terrible front to back.

Oh I agree completely. It was a poor day at the office for the whole squad.

Wasn’t a coincidence that Dragusin was the last player failing to get the ball for all three goals though. Sure that’s where he plays so it’s not unexpected but we’re used to seeing VDV being better than that. Lack of comms is probably just due to lack of game time TBF.

See Klopp is up to his usual antics.

He really is such a poor loser. People will make excuses about his "winners mentality", personally I think there is no excuse for his behaviour, it's not like it's a one off either.

Personally, can't wait till he buggers off.

Stupendously awful by everyone.

Looked like they were phoning it in from the beach after beating Villa.

Feel sorry for Dragusin as defence is the hardest position to come into, as it takes time to build up an understanding with the rest of the players and also adapt to the pace of the Prem. So not helped when the rest of the team has gone AWOL. Plus any mistake gets punished. Thought he looked alright for the most part but could have done with being eased in to some more minutes rather than starting with such little game time.

Fatal combination of players not putting in a shift (which is suicide playing Angeball) and simply dreadful play. Bissouma has returned back from AFCON like he's still playing under Conte. But everyone was st apart from Vicario. Fulham wanted it more which is inexcusable. I expect Ange had some choice words for them and we won't be seeing such a performance again.

Agreed - have to say what a great keeper Vicario is - sadly we need a great keeper again.

I don't know why everyone's surprised by that game, we were warned about this when flange set his stall out when he first arrived.

If the Villa and Fulham results has been swapped over it would have been more understandable if still not acceptable. Its doing the hard work in the crunch game only to throw it all away in the lesser game that makes me furious. furious

The players were already with their mates at two weeks of band camp and just expected Fulham to roll over.

Hopefully the drongo in chief benches a few of them to send a message.
