Spuds proving the "second-half team" narrative false

It's absolutely amazing that Spurs are still in fifth.

Only 5 teams have conceded more than Spurs.

Did not know this, and damn, those teams are 17th, 13th, 20th, 14th, and 15th.

The defensive mastermind that is Antonio Conte at work right there.

One of the best moments of the game was Hojberg yelling at the defense for being **** (a legit gripe), then immediately giving the ball away cheaply for a City chance. All happened in like 30 seconds.

This is not really a defense of Conte, but surely Hugo Lloris knows where some bodies are buried. They needed to replace him a year or two ago with the amount of gaffes he's made. They haven't even brought someone in to challenge him!

That's just the Højbjerg experience baby

Saved by VAR. Our defending from corners is horrific this season.

And I know it was only a minute and a half in but Michael Oliver should have booked Andy Robertson on that tackle on Gallagher.

What a random, little insignificant but interesting little event that was. As Cucurella is down getting treatment, Gakpo comes over and borrows the physio's scissors to cut/loosen a wrapping around his ankle. Tosses the scissors back in the bag when he's done and goes on his way.

That's it—stop reading—you didn't miss anything.

Genuinely have no idea what would have compelled you to wake up for this one

Surely that has to be it for Lampard? Losing to nearly everyone around you, Southampton, West Ham, Wolves, Bournemouth and Leicester.
