Considering who’s playing, the quality has been horrendous. 

He was quality today. Scored the equaliser and a great ball through to what should have been the winner.

Mings read that extremely well 

Looks like they’ve just found that Hodge out behind the bins

We are so off the pace.

Happy to just get to HT at 1-0 and re-group.

I really hope this Fernandez deal goes through. Can’t see it as anything but completely reckless, degenerate gambling.

He played 40 games in the Argentinian league over 3 seasons. Moved to Benéfica this year and has played 14 league games, and obviously had a very good World Cup. Does that make a £100m+ player?

Hope this new owner blows up the club, he’s making all the right moves for me. Reminds me of Everton after their takeover, on steroids.

Definitely no Saudi state-level collusion/involvement in Newcastle though. Pure coincidence.  

I’m sure we’ll never quite met the criteria of “evidence” needed to remove the owners though as is in the terms. 

Chelsea are dire, do not deserve to be leading here.

I’m still yet to discover the reason why there was a clamour for Cucurella in the summer and why Chelsea paid £60m for him. Always looked bang average to me and slow.

What a freak goal for Chelsea there. Forest were giving it a decent go as well.

When you are down there in the table it really does feel like luck is against you.

Absolutely love this guy, we look so well drilled and everyone knows their role. It really is night and day compared to the last fraud as are the results: Couldn’t have picked a much harder starting run of fixtures and he’s picked up 9 points out of 12 against: United, Brighton Away, Liverpool and Spurs Away. Incredible.

Romero is such a word removed

McGinn pass is top drawer! 

The pass was also quality. I’d be a happy man if Emery can give us a revitalised McGinn.

What a quality goal that was, Luiz is pure class.

Kane spoons a shot off balance high and wide which never looked like it was going in.

Commentator jizzes pants “Kane!”

I'll believe my own eyes thanks, we created literally nothing all game and a long shot that was poor is spilled.

Spurs have had a few decent chances.

Have they? 0.24xG vs 0.22xG, a point is a decent result for us as well

Wonder if we’ll see Bailey off soon. Has he touched the ball 2nd half? Could be a change of shape.

Get in!!!!

Maybe that’s why we didn’t start Martinez 

Restricted them to very little but also offered no threat ourselves. Turned too passive last 10/15 minutes and let them dictate, think this will be corrected at HT. Wouldn’t surprise me to see Buendia for Coutinho although his defensive work-rate may be enough to hold this off till after HT.

It will open up 2nd half.

I swear some of you are just waiting for something, anything, to have a go at Olsen. Pathetic.

Typical spurs game this, it’s like they play for 0-0. Should open up 2nd half as a draw isn’t much use for them.

Refs been great but still not immune to the Kane dive apparently

good ref so far

It’s funny because the Spurs forum has been non-stop whining about how shocking he is. 

Been fine imo also.

Spurs happy for us to have the ball and control the tempo, just want to counter. Dinosaur tactics.

Really like the balance of the Luiz Kamara midfield
