I honestly don't think we've been that bad going forward and in controlling the game.

But defensively we've been appalling.

Probably one of Spurs best performances this season, was slightly disappointing that Mason played for the point in the end given that we had the momentum, but a good result from behind.

much better second half by Spurs. United will be kicking themselves for letting yet another 2-0 lead evaporate.

You seem to have more control when Bentancur plays, but yeah there's a few areas that could be upgraded. What's the deal with Bissouma? He never struck me as elite but could do a job for Brighton.
It's time for 5 refs.

Mostly injured, and underperforming like most of the team.

And I agree, losing Bentancur was basically the end of the season for Spurs.

ridiculous added time at Palace. 6 minutes was too much but then another 3 was ludicrous. Some refs want to be the centre of attention.
I remember when the Dolphins were perennial contenders

Brentford did you a big favour with that comeback today.

It was a hideously boring match to watch. Two terrible teams on that showing. Bournemouth came from 2 down to draw with us in Leicester first match of the season. They owed us :-)

Bournemouth should do it for us today against Leeds then got to hope we do it for ourselves against Everton.

Good goal, Perisic broke Van Dijk's ankles there. Still a lot of work to do.

3-2 now. Hats off, they've at least shown some fight. But can we please stop conceding these crappy early goals and giving ourselves a mountain to climb?

Great to watch Spurs come back from 3-0 down and then immediately throw it away with a braindead mistake.

So I remember a lot of people were calling Bundesliga a farmers league because Haaland scored so much (not here, though).
Then he goes to Premier League and immediately becomes the leagues goals per season record holder haha.

People call it a farmers league because Bayern win it every year. But yes, Haaland is very good and yes also the Bundesliga is a good league.

Haha... just when you think Tottenham cannot be any more spursy.

Richarlison scored his first PL goal in 22/23, yet he was more focused on his pigeon celebration and trying to shush Liverpool fans only to lose a minute later. Karma.

Side note, how can you not feel for this fella:

Forget your Pool v spurs or Man C v Arse, tonight is the real big match this week. Leicester v Everton a real must win 6 pointer.

Pickford with the fair play gesture to let Leicester get the equalizer
