Very poor result. All of our top 4 competition won their games and most of them had the tougher games. I am getting sick of letting teams in when we take leads....why can we never go 2 nil up and kill a game off?
If we can't beat Everton then it's a real problem.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You could see that equaliser a mile off - it was classic us under Ange, we should have been 3 or 4 goals to the good and instead we were only 1-0 up and we always concede.
We’re not clinical enough and we can’t defend - very bad combo
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I don't think it's about just being clinical cause I wouldn't say we created lots of good chances. It was the same last season too, we'd have periods of dominance but lacking in creating good chances and instead it was the opposition creating the better ones. Was the same with Leicester last night.
If we end up with just 2 points from 4 games then Ange already has one foot out of the door.
Im sorry everyone. I watched that game last night. Everyone is bemoaning Brennan Johnson, but he was much better than the golden boy Son.
Brennan Johnson has not got the ability that Son has, but his effort was 10 times better than Son.
If you need to look at players, then why isn't anyone mentioning Son's abject performance last night. Every time he made a mistake, he always had that look of surprise and don't blame me on his face. Even when he was taken off, sitting on the sidelines he had a face of a petulant child.
Son and Maddison and Romero were the biggest disappointments for Spurs last night, not BJ.
If we end up with just 2 points from 4 games then Ange already has one foot out of the door.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No way Levy will pay Ange's contract off so he won't be leaving anytime soon. You can't keep on chopping and changing Managers all the time anyway. Not saying Ange is the answer but if you are going to get rid then you should do so pre season so a new boss can bed in his ideas and bring in his own players.
It is too late now - unless he gets the sack immediately and Levy backs a new bloke with funds before the window closes i suppose.

He wouldn't be sacked by then but I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't take much more poor form for Levy to pull the trigger. Let's not pretend Levy is a virtue of patience. He will see top 4 hopes fade away early, fans on Ange's back and he will release him. If there's been no improvement in form by let's say 10 games in, then it's hard to say it wouldn't be deserved.
If you think about it, the leagues Ange has managed in have been about Championship standard, in which he's been very successful in. If he can't properly hack it in the PL then are we therefore more or less just being managed by an Aussie Neil Warnock?

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thought he hacked it well last season considering the squad he inheritied and losing Kane a day before the season started.

Levy will only pull the trigger if a European spot is look out of reach.
Anyway it seems as if you have made your mind up about Ange. We drew our first game last season as well.
Stopped reading at "disaster result"
First game of the season. Fecking Spurs fans
Bed wetting already! Is it going to be like this every time we drop points ?
Didn't arsenal draw their first home game last season...
It`s early days, but a game against Dyche ball is not what we need to kick start the season, Dyche will put 9 men behind the ball, sit in and hope to pick us off on the counter or a set piece.
Everybody knows how to beat Spurs, sit back, defend properly, frustrate and hope to pick us off with long balls over the top into the channels, or a set piece.
You can expect lots of falling over and playing for free kicks from Everton, and even if we take the lead they will know to stick in and wait for the inevitable gift wrapped goal.
Hopefully we score early, put in a performance and kill the game off.
Perspective… I said it last night at least we did not lose. We were away yeah should have put a poor Leicester team to the sword but we didn’t . But we did not lose either.
On to the next game. It will be tough and Dyce willl have an 11 man defence. We need to go at them from the off get the early goal and their whole game plan changes. YES I know getting the early goal is easier said than done…

Not made my mind up yet until more games have been played but it's obviously not the best start. Last season the draw was his first ever game against a mid-table team, this season it's against newly promoted opposition and in his own words, we are better prepared.
Depends on what our aspirations are. If we are happy with mediocre then the result was absoutely fine. If we want to make a statement and show we are serious this season then the result was poor. But I'd say the result is expected as we aren't a serious club. We are what we are I spose

Why did he take Maddison off for a kid? Surely you had a better chance of winning with him on the pitch? I think at times he makes subs for the sake of subs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
At 78 minutes.
Isn't that WAY later than he usually subs?
It wasn't happening, got to tray something different in the last 10.
I think among other things yesterday showed your forward line lacks the necessary quality to get you where you want to be. Johnson for the price you paid is terrible him failing over his own feet yesterday just summed him up. You've obviously got to give Solanke time but those misses were very Richarlison esque I don't really see him as much of an upgrade on Richarlison but time will tell I guess. You obviously dominated the ball quite a lot but to be honest I saw similar things to last season there were a couple of occasions where if Leicester had more quality they could of broken through your press the better teams will be able to do that and you will again be relying on Vicario racing off his line or Van der Ven racing back and probably doing his hamstrings again.

You don't make a statement against a newly promoted team. What is this fasination with making a statement? How many times have we had a statement win against Man City for example? Only to lose the next game after?
Making a statement signing like Eze, for example, is not going to solve our defensive issues. The forever achillies heel of Spurs.

The statement isn't the one result, it would be a collection of results or a run of form, at least that's what I think Bake em is getting at. I guess if we're already drawing against newly promoted sides then you're not really in the position to do that, although we'll have to see if this will be more of a one off for this season or just more a continuation of what was going on the end of last season. If it wasn't for that form people would be less skeptical about this draw. Unfortunately however, this result and performance came with all the hallmarks of what was going wrong back then too.
As I have said earlier, the first 4 games will tell us all we need to know about this current squad
Personally I am totally unimpressed by the incomings and think that Cheapskate Levy has his fingerprints all over the deals.
I cannot believe Aussieglue chose this lot.
Any manager would have wanted top class talent such as Eze or Dani Olmo.
What has come in isn't ready to play premiership football. And we'll soon see the truth of this. Monday's result was just the start.
And Aussieglue is going to find out that he is not the managerial genius he thinks he is.

That 1-1 must have hit you hardest!
