Bit of a weird game that one.
Spurs really let us back into it by sitting back and trying to hold on to the lead. Thought we were average at best. Few comments on the game.
No card for penalty?
Great save by their goalie.
Dcl was useless other than cracking penalty.
James is not prem quality. Gnonto shoulda started. Way better than James.
Darlow iffy today.
How long did the ref take giving an obvious penalty? Looking at the screen I could almost hear him saying “bugger I’m gonna have to give it.”
I’d be playing Longstaff over Tanaka.
As I said before. His decision making gets him in to trouble.
13-15 min added time. Was 8 at best.
But happy with another point. Didn’t think we would get it tbh.
As some have said. Need an overhaul. Need to get rid of as many of the loanees as possible and few of the squad players too.

Apart from the last sentence.. My sentiments too, Aus.

I was there last night and the mood amongst the fans was that he didn't really turn up in the first half. It took their goal and the substitutions to give us a lift, then we had a real go, and could have won it. It was a very weak referee, who bizarrely missed the kick on Ampadu.
The 13 minutes surprised us all, we thought 8 - 9 at the most. Not a great performance, but the team showed a tremendous amount of courage and spirit to come away with a point.

Largely agree there, Aus. Will give DJ benefit of doubt fornkast night, given it's a first start in donkeys, nd a different role, but honestly dont believe he can help us to the next level. Tanaka was very disappointing for me, and Longstaff seems to offer more bite, more dynamism, and much more attacking threat and intent.
Was pleased to see us holding off our beach time mentality, tho I never doubted that with these players.
Huge credit to their GK after his Euro humiliation by Tudor. Those were 2 world class saves imo, and have possibly kept Spurs up.

Time has come.
We desperately need a goal scorer this summer. It's crucial, and last night highlighted how thin our squad really is.
Hopefully, we don't repeat our past mistake and believe we have enough in the squad to withstand another stint at prem next year.
Dan James - Baracus, miles & miles off level required.

Aus is bang on. We definitely need to shift the loan players and a few of the current squad.

We defo need to sign further RB/RWB and LB/LWB in summer.
Farkey should realise that DJ and esp WG do not possess the defensive attributes, esp to play wingback.

We defo need quality goalscoring and creative additions in midfield and attack.
As for DCL being supposedly 'useless'.. if he had been injured for most of the season, we would be in the bottom 3, and he has been our most important player this season.

Agree and disagree, Aus.
I wouldn't say DCL was useless, he was ploughing a lone furrow up front without the usual support from Okafor, Bogle and Gudmundsson. Cracking pen tho.
I agree James isn't prem level, but last night he was asked to cover for Bogle, and gave it his best shot in a role he's not physically suited to. In that role, I suggest WG would have been no better, maybe even worse.
Tanaka is often a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde, and last night, more of the latter. He should've been subbed by Longstaff much earlier, when it was clear things weren't working for him.
The rest I agree.
I'd add Ampadu MOTM for his overall performance and leadership qualities.

Agree with most of the above, lads, though DCL for me is far from useless, in fact vital. As Chris says, we badly need a top striker. DJ I dont think offers a lot, though to be fair he has had a very interrupted season, and the change in formation has not helped him.
Would prefer to keep Willy. Really need a clearout of dead wood, bring in some extra funds to add 3 or 4 quality signings plus some decent depth players.

Tanaka was poor last night but did play well last 20 minutes.

James before Byram? Switch Justin.
