A difficult one, but Leighton Baines at least looked like he was trying. Kane put us out of the game with a fluke goal (again).

Still can't see what the fuss about Delle Ali is. Moody cheat.
 
baines was the only player that looks premier quality and worthy of wearing the shirt.

the rest look like either pub team grocks , a school boy b team or some unknown celeb in a charity match pretending they are a footballer.

special mention to the manager who has wasted the lukaku money , just had a transfer window shut and yet we still look like we need to shift most of the squad and buy 7 first team players of premier league and everton standard.

we started off unimpressive against stoke and the football class and fight has got worse from there.

Martinez's football was so dull and antolin alcaraz looked crap, it couldn't have got worse.
but then along came this team of clueless headless chickens with cuco and klassen.
the boring football was bad , but at least it looked similar to football. I don't know what this lot are doing.
patches o'houlahan's quote in the film dodgeball about doorknobs sums this mob up.
disgraceful !

all of the players brought in will or have improved us already tbh I think - well apart from Martina but in the right games/situations he's actually okay

the failure to add in two key areas may well cost us. That has to be answered for by the manager, the board and DoF - and yes, Moshiri.

Koeman's tactics were crap today, like they were against Chelsea. He shouldn't need two or three matches to know what's gone wrong. Hopefully this gets sorted asap
 
Thoughts on the game:

Martina is absolutely horrible at defending. Looks like he's frightened to defend half the time. Ben Davies absolutely bullied him.
Tottenham are so much fitter/more organised/quicker than us- we stank the gaff out in all those areas today
Sigurdsson and Klaassen were both completely anonymous. Looked like square pegs in round holes.
People saying Schneiderlin and Gueye shouldn't play together- but when you have crabs like Williams (who was by a mile the worst player on the pitch) behind them you need the 2 of them to screen them especially against teams like Spurs
 
What is so frustrating is that there is bags of talent in whichever 11 goes on the pitch but it just isn't joined up and fluent. No system, no belief and no real leadership. Talent is therefore wasted.

Time to go back to basics, maybe with a 4-4-2 with defenders who can defend, forwards who can score and a midfield that can graft and create. At least everyone would know their job.

Pickford

Holgate. Keane. Jags. Baines

Lennon. Schneiderlin. Vlasic. Siggy

DCL. Sandro/Rooney

...as I've said, 11 good footballers don't necessarily make a good football team.

30 goals in 71 Premier League games as a 21 year old midfielder. Bang average.
