Yes but we didn’t have the fight we normally have.

I can accept defeat against anyone, as long as the players give their all. Apart from Arter, that didn’t happen today.

I honestly think they just outclassed us and we just didn’t get the ball..... spurs looked so comfortable and in control from the kick off.... :ayatollah:

same here, I turned up in the hope we might get lucky but knowing what did happen could well happen..we are proper up against it this season especially in these games against the top teams yet I come on here and its all..too much respect..didn't put a shift in..lost before a ball was kicked etc...jeez this lot won 3 nil at old Trafford and scored 6 at goodison against teams who both can boast having individual players worth what our whole team cost.

i find a lot of the remarks very harsh abd disrespectful to our manager and players tbh...

Well said,didn't enjoy today,even hoping kane wouldn't get on the score sheet :oops: These games will have little bearing on the whole season,except maybe goal difference,bad day at the office,but that's all,some fans cannot wait.for someone to blame,it is a team game ffs,lots not start a "friends of fulham"meltdown the fans have sucked the ball in the net on a few occasions already at home,and away.keep the faith,and roar the lads through what we all knew,players,fans,management alike would be an extremely difficult season.we will survive. :thumbup: :ayatollah:

The likes of the 4 Premier League teams in the Champions League are there for a reason - All have beaten us well .

Not one of our players could get on their bench imho.
Sometimes the fear of the opposition is well founded. The one time one of our players (Cunningham) went for the ball on the half way line and left a gap, they scored from it.
Yes we had a bit of a go 2nd half but Spurs were more content to knock it about and keep possession then.
Spurs had knocked 5 and 6 past teams recently who probably ‘had a go’ and I’ve no doubt that the same would have happened to us.
Different game in store v Hudds and Newc. Looking forward to both.

A decent team they spanked, Bournemouth 5 - 0, Everton 6 - 2, and Arsenal 2 -0 recently, it was always going to be a difficult game, if they were at their best.

We need to concentrate on Newcastle and Huddersfield !!!
