Yeah I’m starting to change my mind on a lot of this stuff to be honest (though I still think that sign was funny)

Nobody is going to save Spurs but these players. They have to start performing (Gift Article) The reality is that if the worst happens over the last 10 league games, it will mark the reputations of this group forever

Have we been so consumed with the politics at Spurs this season that we have let the players off the hook? Has that lack of responsibilty contributed to Spurs' struggles?

No-one is coming to save Tottenham. The players have to do it themselves.

Tottenham face multiple challenges in their new sporting director search. What is their strategy? The departure of Fabio Partatici to Fiorentina has left the club trying to find a replacement for the role in mid-season

Tottenham using an executive search company to help find the new Sporting Director to work alongside Johan Lange. Who will be the right person to join their collaborative approach?

Tottenham have forgotten how to win football matches (Gift Article) The longer it is since they last won, the more distant the memory, the bigger the mental block they will have.

Bit of a siege at the end but apart from that Sarr chance they never came close to scoring. FT 2-1. Spurs have four points from 10 PL games in 2026. Pressure on Thursday night even bigger.

Say what you want about Richarlison, he's a man for a crisis

Richarlison pulls one back. Far post header from a Gray cross from the left after Tel drove Spurs forward. 2-1. 25 mins left

Not looking great at half time. Spurs ropey at the back and don’t look like scoring.

Iwobi makes it 2-0 from just outside the box, brilliant first time hit after exchanging passes with Wilson.

Kolo Muani's movement has been pretty good so far, better than we've seen in the past. Good run and touch onto a POrro pass but great tackle from Diop to deny him

Half way through first half. Still 1-0 to Fulham. Spurs having some more possession now and working hard but looking short of confidence with and without the ball.

1-0 to Fulham, Wilson volleys in after Tete sticks it into the box, Jimenez flick, Bobb crosses back in. Bit of a mess but no real resistance or pressure from SPurs to stop it. VAR check for a push but goal given.
