I am told - ok hold on to your hats, that in a game Spurs conceded 3 goals, Dier had 0 yes Zero interceptions. If you look at the first goal conceded, Dier is well placed to cut the pass but neither does he bust the gut to get to it nor does he carry out any attempt to stop it. He literally jogs back in a straight line, then looks dejected
Spurs fans wake up - Dier, Davies and Sanchez are not the solid defense we need.
Plenty of us have known for ages our defenders can't defend.
Conte is right in calling out some of the players for being mentally weak and aren't aware to danger time and time again.
Conte however has to take his share of the blame with his formation and it's him that makes us play with the handbrake on when we could attack more and win more games.
By the way Antonio we wouldn't have been playing yesterday if you'd have picked a stronger side away to Sheff Utd in the F A Cup.

Just watched and I think that's unfair assessment of Romero who tried to cover for Dier, and just couldn't get to the ball. Their player was right ibnn the middle of the goal for a tap in, where was Dier???
Absolute school boy error. Walcott literall wondered into the heart of the defense and tapped in a weak shot that trickle through into goal. Meanwhile DIER AND KANE on the goal line
Fkn joke.
Their pen is a joke too. Their player is doing a Kung Fu flying block, and was trying to extract a pen by getting in the way of our player trying to clear the ball, but if you give the ref any easy decision to make, he will take it.

yeah, but he will probably be regretting coming now, unless he gets a transfer to United, City or Liverpool in summer.
Spurs are in reality not that ambitious for such a talent.

It's a weird catch 22 type situation cause the only way we're going to improve is by getting these talented players like Porro, but then we're lacking the ambition to make them want to stay.

I thought him being able to speak Portuguese was what helped his cause with Jose. Not sure with Conte but I guess he is better than Sanchez so there is that.
We need ideally 2 new CBs to prevent Dier or Sanchez being brought back into the team at any point, if we really are serious about progressing.

This...Dier us a joke CB, he hates tackling
Our defence is the worse I think I’ve seen supporting Tottenham for 30+ years
Even when we were mid table plodders we still looked more solid as we had a mabbut, Campbell , king to hold us together
We now have Eric facking Dier as the glue holding us together …..a piece of snot not glue
I still think we are better going forward than we are showing which would take a bit of pressure of the shambolic back line as we play so deep but can’t be bothered to hammer conte again today
We can moan about the awful penalty decision but we didn’t deserve the points
Whether we make the top 4 is completely meh, we still won't act like a CL club in the market and it won't attract any better players, because Levy will always be outbid. Qualifying for the CL will just line ENIC's pockets, it won't help build a quality team under these parasitic owners.
If a manager knows that his team lacks quality defenders who can’t be coached to improvement and you have top quality attacking players. Why setup defensive…… don’t make sense just shows Conte is as bad as the players and the owners.
The set up is just as much of a problem.
We concede so, so many attempts because we’re so passive and sit back.
It’s crazy that a high percentage of our fan base and rivals can see our problem being the set up as the defence is so bad
Yet a 15 million a year manager just keeps sending out the same players in the same set up expecting a different result (I can’t help it , I can’t leave conte alone as he is half the problem )
Enic are sucking the soul out of us but conte is contributing to it

Danjuma not getting a look in over son is mind boggling to say the least

We’ve scored 6 goals in our last 2 games Jimmy - 6
We are attacking sides - I don’t think it’s asking too much for our defence to do the business for 15 mins against the worst attacking side in the league.
