Some of the defending and goalkeeping aside we played well, Jose didn’t have too much choice but to make the changes he did. Winks was awful but nothing we didn’t already know. We will be a much better side next season when Skipp replaces him.

The effort from the lads was good.

Rubbish. This game could have gone either way and has been a great watch, I'd say the ref has been a bit shit as well.

Brighton game we did fuck all and deserved to lose.

We deserved to lose today, because we don't have a defence that can cope with us attacking the way we did. Everton scored every time they needed to score.

I'm not being funny but I felt Winks was doing it on purpose.

It was too ridiculous. I think he threw the game.

At least it wasn’t dull I suppose.

but crap subs and/or crap sub performances helped put the nail in the coffin after shit errors.

Winks and Alli were rubbish. Not overly surprising for Alli given his complete lack of football.

There is no point having Sissoko as a wing back because he can’t cross or make an incisive pass.

As soon as Ndombele and Lamela went off I knew our attacking pattern would go.

There never seems to be a tactical decision or game plan when Mourinho makes subs.

The story of this game is the 7 minute spell where we went 3-1 down. Other than that, we were predominantly the better side. But every time we made a mistake, they scored. There were a lot of good Spurs footballing performances in this loss. And a lot of good players making bad mistakes.

This team is presently less than the sum of its parts.

We really need some quality in the defensive department in the summer. If Jose could trust our defence, maybe we would open up a bit

Cue the sack Jose posts

don’t think it was his fault tonight.

we made ridiculous mistakes to gift Everton goals

the quality on the bench was distinctly average.

monkey thing is call Jose on, was bringing on Winks, who was dreadful. And to a lesser extent Sissoko, who is bang average on the ball, But what could Jose do there?

I don't care about Carabao cup, this season it's a sham competition, FA Cup or Europa Cup were required for Mourinho to stay in my opinion, I don't like his management style and don't want him at the club.

We should have won this, shouldn't need to score 6 goals away from home to win. Some really poor individual mistakes. Lloris and Winks the main culprits. Pivotal moment was Kane missing that chance and the other Harry having the touch of someone with 2 left feet.

Overall though I'm pleased with our performance, we played well, as did Everton. I enjoyed that more than some of our wins this season.
