Your ratings and reactions please. Keep it respectful even if you know everyone else is wrong.

A mod will add the players to the MoTM poll later.

Remind me again why we sacked Dean Smith?

Defence is non-existent, twice undone with a Sunday League punt.

Attacks win games, Defences win leagues

Oh FFS not this again.

Even if Gerrard isn't the right man, the decision to get rid of Smith was absolutely justified.

Because our record from the 1st January until the day he got sacked was horrendous and the performances were getting worse and worse.

But of course, you knew this.

Because it's not Gerrard's fault that Ings and Watkins cant take simple chances. We should have been winning comfortably at half-time.

Tottenham have scored 4. Even if we had converted our chances we'd still be loosing.

[Condimentalist]

No blame on Gerrard for me. Performance was good until comedy finishing and defending ruined it.

This one is on Ings and Konsa.

Credit where it's due. We were great that half. Nothing to play for and it felt like a Cup game.

Please let this be a 90min performance. Please. 

Narrator: it was not infact a 90min performance

But he keeps picking them along with SJM and Konsa. He hasn't got a clue how to change a game. He drops Sansom after being the pick of the midfield against Wolves. I could go on.

Because the same players bottled it for him as well? 10 points from 11 games? 5 loses on the spin. Terrible form throughout 2021. Remember any of that 

Oh so it’s the players?  How much money do we need to spend and how much churn before we get the “right” players?

Mentality and structure is set by the manager, Conte strangely has sorted out pretty much the same players at Spuds, we on the other hand remain “shite”

A tale of two halves

[rjw63]

That should just about cover it.

[The_Rev]

Europe next season lads. 

[Guest av1]

I’m done. Today was pathetic 

[Mozzavfc]

Get your poo GIFs in now lads

[tonyh29]

Should have won by 4 … instead we lost by 4 

I dunno Stevie , you remind me of Tim Sherwood , I’m not sure you’ve done enough to keep the gig next season … never mind the players fighting for their futures , you’ve got 7 games to save your job

 

[NoelVilla]

Play great one half and then Conte have a half-time talk with his players and they score 3 easy goals almost without any effort. Pathetic.

[AV82]

A freak result after a few poor defensive mistakes were capitalised on by a world class finisher. This is far from our worst performance, I just hope we don’t let our heads drop as the score line does not reflect the game of football I just watched.

One thing we can all agree on is that players need rotating and the coaching team need to take a long hard look at themselves.

[Davkaus]

Top stuff, on to five in a row again.

[holteend1982]

For me that result is purely on the players, first half we should have scored 4 or 5 and never given them such an easy goal. They all **** bottled it again in the second half, pathetic.
