I don't think we should try and pack it in with a 2 goal lead on anyone. I want to see that killer mentality. Go for a third goal. Don't settle on 2 and hope it's enough. Go for the fricking kill shot.

At some point, though, you want to get those three points. Pochettino has never been one for sealing matches...had the same problem at So'ton.

Who are we going to score that third goal with? Kane's injured on the bench and we had no other attacking options. This game really highlighted the need for another striker. Lamela for Kane? We need depth bad.

Lamela is fricking terrible. Kane and Ericksen are the two best attacking players you have. Your defense is the problem.

That's my point. Kane goes out, we have no attack. Nothing on the bench. Dier is basically a fifth defender. We played five defenders and four mid/wingers four most of the second half. If we don't have attacking options the other team steps on the gas since we can't push their back line.

Its beyond obvious how badly we need another striker.

I'm done with Lamela. Maybe he is out of position. Maybe his game doesn't translate to the EPL. I don't know exactly what it is, but he just isn't doing anything positive.


Can someone please kill Bentaleb? He hasn't ever created anything and his defending has been lazy these 2 matches. He was invisible after coming in. Before being subbed out, Mason was incredibly busy. Made a bunch of nice runs into the box and was constantly getting involved in the attack. When we weren't in possession, he did a good job of pressing the opponent. Can someone explain to me what Bentaleb actually does positively?

I would love to score a couple of first half goals like Everton has today.


You should have asked for the third in the second half as well

Really a shame Lamela has been so shite.

Is Chadil the only signing from that Bale money that has actually done anything?

Oh yea, that guy

One of those games that feels like a loss... I hope this gets Levy's attention to get on the move with some transfers. We looked like 2 totally different teams after Harry came out. Bentaleb didn't do shite, Lamela is a lost cause, just an all around bad ending to what started out as being exciting and fun. On a good note, I have my Eriksen shirt on the way

Well, there was plenty of time between the 2nd goal and when Kane was subbed off. And, well, since Kane didn't score either of the other goals, I don't think you have to rely on him to net the third. Granted, when he came off that changes a lot. But we got two goals and just never really felt like we were on the attack in the 2nd half.

We were too comfortable after going up 2-0 and subbing Kane off. Lamela sucks. I'm oak with everyone else for the most part

You can't blame them for subbing Kane off as it appears he had a slight injury. But prior to that, we got lax in our attack.

I'm not mad at poch for subbing off Kane I'm just really disappointed in lamela. I was expecting him to be a big contributor this year
