Pretty much agree with all of this Sandy , my only concern from yesterday was Sanchez . IMO at fault for there equaliser and that’s the second slack bit of defending in as many matches , for such a big bloke his ariel ability is poor and his awareness behind him is also.
Toby has to start vs Utd.
I thought Sanchez was OK, not sure you can blame him for the goal, but I will have to have another look at, as I have not seen any replays of the match yet.

As I say mate just my opinion, but have a look and see what you think.
Eriksen often starts slow if memory serves.
Bit like Harry USED to!
I know Kane scored and also played some lovely passes, but 2 of his misses yesterday were really bad. He gets away with it because he did score and also we won but to miss the 2 absolute sitters he missed yesterday is a little worrying IMO.
Maybe the three at the back with a holding midfielder was tested by Poch yesterday with the Man Utd game in mind next week.

To be honest I thought Kane played as well has he has for a month or so. At least he was getting in positions to take the chances.

No problems mate.
Thought Trippier was at fault for the goal, he was way out of position when the cross came in. Fulham are better than there results suggest though, I was impressed with them and think they will comfortably stay up.
We need to be signing the boy Sessegnon next summer as well, he is an execellent player.
Poch said in his interview afterwards that he was unhappy with the defending, and to be fair we have been a bit lucky as our bar/post has been rattled 3 times in the last 2 games. We look nowhere near full speed at the moment, but individual moments of quality have got us over the line. Lucas is starting to look a good signing.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Spurs themselves hit the bar yesterday, had what I think was a good goal disallowed, and had plenty of other chances to kill both games off. So not entirely all one way luck mate.
Three points at OT is asking a lot. If we get a point it would still be a great result. It's the one away ground of the top 6 we still haven't got anything from under Poch, and the one we most don't turn up in. Need to play well there for a start.
The goal came from Sessignon being allowed to pull back the cross and play it across the goal.
I am note sure what Lloris was doing on the ground, pre-thinking Sessignon was going to shoot and selling himself down the river.
Tripper should have stopped the first cross but there should never be a chance for opposition players to turn that cross into a dangerous cross across the goal line?
Davies is a liability in defending and utterly useless as a crosser when he gets to the line.
Here's the weakest point of the side.

We should play to get maximum points. We have a very good side and at least as good as theirs, if not better when you compare man for man.
United will probably park the BIGGEST bus and play on counter attacks, giving us 65% possession.
We need to account for that.
Unless Jose has the biggest breakdown before then, and suddenly decides to play an attacking game for once.
That would suit us.
The issue is the mental attitude some of us have.
Oh, it United. It would be good to get a draw
Stop beating ourselves and let go there and turn up for the game!

Obviously, I would want 3 points over a draw and hope that's what we go for, but if we only end up with 1 it's decent, because they are a top side that finished above us last season and should be right up there again.

The thing is though, there surely has to come time when Spurs simply have to go to places like Old Trafford and win. Let it become the norm, like Chelsea and most of the other big hitters used to do when the came to WHL, they came there to win, not to just draw. Spurs simply have to be winning at places like this if they want to win trophies.

Well we do have to do it. Simple. Lay down a marker, to say if a team wants to win the title, they will have to finish above Spurs.
