Squad depth was always going to be an issue for Spurs this season.
Not really, he just will never be fully fit anymore due to his injury problems.
Yeah I agree, you really need luck on your side with injuries to survive with our squad. Unfortunately this season (same with last season) we have struggled a lot with injuries to key players.
If they lose tonight (which is looking likely) and Liverpool and Burnley win tomorrow night, they could be 7th in the league. I wonder what all the Pochettino lovers on here would say to that.
So glad to see Lamela back, he is pure class.
Kane keeps scoring.
All the while Kane remains fit, Spurs are always in with a chance.
They are back. You know what i mean.
We actually played quite well tonight and made enough chances to win, other than kane we have no cutting edge though. Alli and Eriksen both horribly out of form and it is costing us.
Almighty best run better then united... sup?
huh?
Things just got interesting.
In a way, they're effectively bottling their move into their new stadium.
Come unraveled this season and they'll lose key players/manager in the Summer, and what do they do...? You know the answer.
Spurs gonna Spur.

Not to turn into a wum, though was tempted.Nothing personal but I just loathed the smugness some of your fellow fans possesed these past 3 seasons maybe more, and seeing Spurs sit 5th with a decent chance of falling to 7th full 8 points behind us is just kinda satisfying.
Is Winks injured?
Their first big crisis under Pochettino? The miss of Alderweireld has really hit them badly imo.
The games are going to start coming thick and fast now. With them in a bad spell of form, with a thin squad. They could lose a lot of ground if they're not careful.
Their away record was fantastic and had insane record, this time they have lost their last 3 away games.
Still a good side but a real battle for top 4 on now. Have the same points tally after 14 games that we had last season.
New stadium mate
League form: LWLDL, 4/15 points. Ouch.
Same amount of loses so far this year as the whole of last year.

Exactly, and they can refer to his long and storied history of winning trophies to prove that he's.......oh, yeah.
New stadium, mate.
There will be a few Spurs lads working on their first drafts of a transfer request tonight.
Genuinely seem to be focused on the CL, which is mental.
Thought this was their year.
Can they be 7th after the number of games equalizes? Feck me how have they fallen.
Didn't realise we were so far ahead of Spurs in the table.
8 points.
8 points.
Yeah but lets get Pochettino, right?
Lovely to see the hipster favorites struggle..
It's safe to say they are out of the title race.
Could be 16 behind City after tomorrow!
Providing they do, City would still be ahead of them even if they hadn't have played a game since their 3-0 win v Burnley 5 weeks ago (If I researched that correctly)

. And that's the fault of Poch surely
would be interesting if they miss out on Top 4. No doubt players like Alderweireld and Eriksen will be gone, still a long way to go though but they will fight for 4th at best this season.
With their form in europe it's very surprising, is it Alderweireld's injury ? or just a general loss of form ?

Next year they will be even worse. All the talent will jump ship.
We need to sign Kane even if it means selling Lukaku after one season. I'd imagine he's head will turn after this season.
Kane will be Madrid bound in August, guarantee it.
Facepalm.
I like Poch and rate him, but if he can't win a title with this Spurs' squad, he isn't winning one with this Man United team. They are better in probably every position except CM and GK.
