What has happened to Stoke's defence

We're ahead of Spurs on goal difference thanks to this humiliation.

Spurs are embarrassing!

[mystiroakey]

I can't wait for man city v arsenal ...

[NickisBHAFC]

[Guest]

After a great start to the season, Spurs challenge for a top four place, is faltering badly.

Man City are a strange team - when they win they tend to win big, but then they lose / draw away to low budget teams (sunderland, aston villa, drawing with stoke).

[JamesLincs]

time to go avb. that was humiliating.

[Liam]

Absolutely appalling from Spurs today. Going forward they don't look like creating chances. Dembele the bright spark once he came on, Lamela was rubbish just dribbled into trouble. Big problems for Spurs atm, wonder how long AVB will be given. Aguero for me today just showed he's the best striker in the league at the moment, closely followed by Suarez.

[Guest]

Earlier in the season when Spurs were doing well many were saying AVB was brilliant, now they have a sticky patch, and many are saying AVB has to go (but who to replace him with?). Spurs are still just two points from a top four place.

[mystiroakey]

Its just man citeh- the team is just so good at home

[NickisBHAFC]

Pretty stupid by Rooney, lucky not to get a red there.

[Duty281]

Spurs were shocking. Criminal display. Defence all over the place, particularly Dawson, and the midfield nowhere to be seen. City only had to play OK to take advantage of the sizeable gaps in the Spurs defence.

[Guest]

£100+ million, for all those players, and they're all flopping!

[Guest]

Rooney shouldve been given his marching orders then the moron

Gutted Carrick is out for so long, don't think I can put up with Fellaini while he's out, Fellaini is what the French call les incompetent

[NickisBHAFC]

1-0 Rooney. Cardiff fans will love that

[socal1976]

So that is what 100 million pounds worth of Poopie looks like, AVB is a terrible manager he doesn't know what he is doing. Defoe is better than Nogoaldo and Adebayor combined yet he keeps picking those two boobs. Is defoe injured? I don't really pay attention much unless they are playing Arsenal. Well at least we know that Champion's league is out of the question for Spurs.

[NickisBHAFC]

1-1

Frazer Campbell. Well taken goal.

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

Earlier in the season when Spurs were doing well many were saying AVB was brilliant, now they have a sticky patch, and many are saying AVB has to go (but who to replace him with?).  Spurs are still just two points from a top four place.

I've never been a fan. Couldn't break the top four even with the hottest player in the league, and has brought a 25 million pound striker who doesn't suit his system one bit.

Seriously overrated

[mystiroakey]

Why does soldado keep getting a game !!!

[Guest]

Why does soldado keep getting a game !!!

Because he cost so much I assume. Can see Defoe leaving in January.

[mystiroakey]

Tottenham would be mad to get rid of there only decent striker

[NickisBHAFC]

Tottenham should of gone full out for Benteke. Remy would of been a great signing as well. Soldado wasn't the player.

[Guest]

I agree Myst but AVB obviously doesn't rate him highly enough.

Got an inkling he'll wind up back at Upton Park.

[NickisBHAFC]

Great header by Evra 2-1 United.

[mystiroakey]

I can't see Tottenham letting him go through..

Even of he hardly plays I am sure the manager and Board realise he is the only back up they have..if this soldado thing doesn't pay off then what else do they have as back up?

[Guest]

I'd assume they'd enter the market again Myst.

If you was Defoe wouldn't you want to go?

[mystiroakey]

Yes.

[Guest]

I agree Myst but AVB obviously doesn't rate him highly enough.

Got an inkling he'll wind up back at Upton Park.

hopefully!! We desperately need a striker!

[Crimey]

That's a shocking result for Tottenham, but totally against their recent form barring the 1-0 loss to Newcastle. They've had a decent start and people shouldn't jump to conclusions because of this result, no matter how awful. I expect them still to challenge for top four. I don't think AVB has bought particularly badly, just players that need more time to settle, poor choice to buy so many all from foreign leagues, but I still think most will come good. 

Tottenham have just got to not let the result get to them and move on, Arsenal lost 8-2 to Manchester United and still managed to get top 4.

[NickisBHAFC]

Nooooooooooneyyyyyy

Noone, Noone will tear you apart again!!!

Hope he changes the game!!

[Guest]

United are third only to Stoke and England as most boring to watch

I remember when we played exciting football instead of this drab nonsense

[Good Golly I'm Olly]

You obviously haven't watched Norwich play recently

[Guest]

At what point was cleverly thinking it was a foul on him then?

The useless pr! Ck

[NickisBHAFC]

GOAL!!!

2-2

[mystiroakey]

Pulis + Palace = rivals Man u as the most boring team

[Guest]

seems like no body wants to win the league this year lol...whenever anyone gets a chance to really get close/pull away, they drop points.

[mystiroakey]

Arsernal do and will.

But the Man citeh home form is scary good 26-2, 6-0

[mystiroakey]

I will be happy to hold them to 4/5-0 as a palace fan

[Guest]

imagine if city had managed to start well away from home...they would have been unstoppable.

[mystiroakey]

They are a psychotic footballing team.

But if it does click they will overtake Arsenal- because they could virtually go unbeaten from here on in

[Steffan]

Il take the point

BLUEBIRDS!!!

[mystiroakey]

A deserved point as well

[Ent]

Only radio commentary today (which incidentally is an abysmal way to experience football, they all think they are pundits and don't describe the action).

Sounds like fellaini and cleverly was the worst midfield combination in recent history.

Undone all the good work in beating arsenal.

[Dolphin Ziggler]

But he deserves his England spot...

[Guest]

You can say that again. Terrible! That was a shocker from Fergie saving Cleverley`s career & Moyes judgement on bringing Fellaini to the club! Embarrassing duo!

[Ent]

But he deserves his England spot...

Meh he earnt it, took his opportunity.

[mystiroakey]

ent mate start supporting another team..Man u is bringing you down to much

[Ent]

Not the way it works though is it?

I'd doubt I'd even watch another teams games or remember they were on.

[Guest]

Chin up Ent. I've spent 20 years in the doldrums.

[Guest]

Et we were terrible, shouldve been worse as well as Rooney shouldve been sent off before he scored

Fellaini and cleverly are terrible, I don't think a league 2 team would lose sleep over facing these two, let alone a prem team

Far too many squad players for me and not enough starting quality. Major investment needed im afraid but knowing United they'll probably just throw tens of millions at a team with an average player because he's got premier league experience

[Ent]

Don't mind where we are as long as we are living up to our potential or aiming towards something.

03/06 was shocking at times but at times there was some great football and you could see fergie trying to build a new team.

Now it's just moyes picking rubbish teams that play terrible football and get average results. Were defending champions and have spent £27 million in our weak area, should be doing a lot better.

[mystiroakey]

again rooney got you out of the mess- he scored , provided and put in other good deliveries..Nothing else worked. You looked like a bad England team

but as Gazzy said- he should have been off anyway
