Chiriches should not be allowed to see the pitch again. He almost gave up another weak turnover in his own box during added time. Spurs lucky to get a point.
Agree on Chiriches - he just needed to get any part of his body on that ball and there is no goal, but instead he whiffs and pops the ball with his hand. But at least it was Ba who had put in the effort all game; but for Lloris he has a few goals himself.
Speaking of Lloris - he has been playing amazing soccer lately. He seems to always be in just the right place, and he (at least lately) has not been getting himself into squirrely situations where he tries to play a ball from the edge of the box but fails to gain possession.
The only positive I saw on offense yesterday was Kane. I really like his game, and he seems to be playing with a lot of confidence and composure. It's too bad he didn't get the second goal (reeled in a pass at the top of the box, and cracked a shot off a short hop, unfortunately right to the keeper), but I hope to see more of him going forward.
I was also happy with the play of Stambouli; he was creative with the ball and helped push play upfield.
Other than that, not too many positives from yesterday. I really don't know what the deal is with Soldado, but I am ready to give up the experiment. We need a second striker so bad; perhaps we can relesase two midfielders to get some money because he has been an absolutely dud (my memory says he has one goal this calendar year - that's not right is it?).
And last thought - I have never seen White Hart Lane look as bad as it did yesterday. Empty seats down low, whole empty sections up top, and the Turks dominating the atmosphere. Does anyone know what that was about? Are we just tired of Europa competition?
