Thought Reggie was excellent tbf, and Lloris was quite alright. Beyond that though, it was very poor.

Reggie was good, Emerson did well against Zaha. Lloris has to take some responsibility for our poor distribution from the back also. His hospital pass to Dier did just that. The rest...meh

Alistair Gold just wrote that Harry Kane did not have a shot at goal or touch the ball in the opposition’s half. If that is true then I don’t care how bad the service is he needs to move about a bit more to make himself available for passes. I did not see the game but that statement from Alastair is hard to believe.

Dele Ali has got to be in the last chance saloon.
If he plays the rest of the season like he has been, he’s got to go.
But who would even buy Dele, Dier or Winks? We keep them because Levy will want too much money for them.
I’d say Dele is worth 15mil, Dier 10mil and Winks 12mil.
Levy would want 20+ for each of Dele and Winks
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Dele did quite well today considering we had no midfielder capable of passing him (or Kane) the ball, and he spent a lot of his time helping out defensively, with one fantastic block of a shot that is as good as a goal.

Remember when we had Dembele and Eriksen keeping the ball, and providing passes into the front men, that is when we see the best of Dele. Today we had Skipp who looked to be carrying an injury, Hojberg who is an out and out DM but limited passer, and Winks who bottled every progressive pass that was on in favour of the safe option. All 3 of them were outrun and outfought, hence we did not have much ball.

We all know Winks is not up to it, he has had numerous opportunity and consistently fails to perform, and yet he is still here. That falls on Levy and ENIC, and Nuno for picking him.

Shocking line up today...

If these negative, defensive performances continue, then Nuno will be collecting his P 45, come November...

Whenever Winks starts, we tend to lose... anyone else notice that?!!

Kane was poor, not surprising really with Southgate running him into the ground for England.

Has anyone rated John Moss?

Gotta say Billy is right on target with all remarks here.

I personally think its strange to call out a reggie as having a good game. I thought he was less than average, definitely one of our lower performers. But football is about opinions

----------------------------------------------------------------------
He made countless defensive block and challenges - some last ditch and off the line. Admittedly they didn’t attack him too much but I also don’t remember him being beaten.

JMO of course
