"Tottenham are tougher under Pochetinno" - Telegraph

[ClintEastwould]

Decent article. This bit caught my eye

Ahead of the first leg last week in north London, the Sheffield United midfielder Jose Baxter had claimed that Premier League players had become “too nice”, echoing Sherwood’s comments, and also suggested that top-flight opponents also “don’t like being kicked and left on the ground”.

Baxter may have remembered those remarks after being floored off the ball by Erik Lamela in front of an incandescent Blades manager, Nigel Clough, early in the first half.

Yes, I can see the change during Chelsea game. The only thing is that our central midfield don't have the lungs to cover back when we lose possession which give rise to many leaky goals.

Still got lots of work in defending...

Also loved how Stambouli absolutely molested, mutilated and murdered one of their central midfielders.

Not sure I really agree. Going from complete control to collapse to blind panic against Palace, Leicester and Sheff United recently presents question marks.

Not sure how much of that is down to being weak ? Just bad defending and individual errors IMO.
If your 1 0 up and make a mistake and the other team scores it changes the game and puts them on the front foot
