Wrong. His first game back he came on as a substitute against Chelsea... The Hull game was 5 days after he had returned. Absolutely no excuse for his and their performance against Hull.

Wtf, you have mane and Clyne vs Davies.
The NBC commentator mentioned the snood.. He is on the caf.

Dier 
Spurs are incredibly lucky it's only 2-0.
Anybody know if Dele is playing for Spurs today or is he still in London?
Do they just hook that cnut, McManaman, up to a canister of helium at the start of every game?
Meh, was hoping for a draw but as it is, we sit 2 points off 2nd.
Dembele is the only player visible for Spurs
Player of the Month curse?
Spurs tactics of put out a not very good defence & then tell them to fanny around with it, in & around their own box, isn't working for me
more like Time of the month. His mangina is giving him gip
oh come on Spurs, you're bloody second for goodness sake......
And that is pretty much what they were aiming for
Haven't checked the table but how many points are we behind Spurs after results today?
It just shows a degree of tactical naivety and stubbornness in not adjusting your style of play to the opponent, I feel.
You can understand it with the likes of Guardiola as he had world class players that could, on their day beat any level of opposition player-for-player pretty much in any formation.
With these tactics, Spurs were defeated before they even kicked a ball. Even with the players at our disposal, Mourinho wasn't as cavalier as Spurs have been today which is the difference between the two managers.
Anyway, hope Spurs manage to buck their ideas up and score a couple in the second half, though it looks highly unlikely.
Adidas promoted him throughout the week on social media as well...
Spurs dreadful. Liverpool good.
This just proves Liverpool have only one way of playing. Press the hell out of the opposition. Which is fine but obviously they can only do it with a week's rest in between games and against teams who try to play as opposed to who give them ball and ask them to break down. They also can't keep it up for 90 mins.
2 points
2 behind both Spurs and Arsenal. 1 behind Liverpool (assuming they win).
Spurs tactics or lack of them making Liverpool look like Barcelona.
Ridiculous defending for the second goal btw.

Couldn't find the net without him, though.
A bit naive of Spurs to play this way at Juanfield.
Weirdly finding myself watching the rugby more than the Liverpool game. I don't even like rugby. Maybe I should just go to bed.
Don't mind if Tottenham lose, we'll be just 2 points of second place (4 if City win), which should really be our goal, no matter how much longer we're still 6th. We've been compressing the table for so long, it will be fun if we rapidly jump all four teams.
meh...you can never rely on Spurs to do anything......
Still think Liverpool wil capitualte in a hilarious fashion in the second half. Poch will mix it up.
Where is @GlastonSpur ?
will be fun watching the scousers..."We go again" mood.
Spurs have been unbelievably shit in 1st half, I thought I had seen them at their worst in 1st half versus City but guess not.
Pochettino needs to make some subs, Davies is being killed down the left. Also, their best player (Eriksen) is seeing little of the ball. If they are to get anything here, need to get him involved.

If we stop with the strings of draws we can definitely get 2nd.
Arsenal and Liverpool are proofs that it is better to be able to beat average teams and bottle the big games (Arsenal) vs be inconsistent against average opposition and then raising your game for the big games. The former gets you top four, the latter just gets you praise from Robbie Savage.
As it stands, if we'd beaten Hull at home 2 games ago, we'd be 3rd in the league.
How awful have Dembele and Wanyama have been today... Spurs have literally no midfield.

Agreed.
Reminds me of the City game tbh. Wouldn't be shocked if Spurs get back in this.
