What a great game. We were good - but Spurs were better. I love the way we pass the ball these days, but Spurs surpassed us in this area. In the end, too many final balls went loose. Kone was imo our weak link - sell him, and keep Naismith (unfortunately, that's not going to happen). Besic and Deulofeu were great substitutions, Besic's shot towards the end was sublime.
I really think we have a great squad now, just a few tweaks here and there to take us to the next level. We need to keep Naismith unless we're going to sign a class striker to support Romelu. Hopefully Jags coming back will tighten things up in the defence. It's essential that we hang on to almost every player we currently have and then strengthen in depth. Stones is immense and it would be an immense tragedy if we lose him. It looks like a top 8 finish will be the best we can hope for this season, but if we can keep the squad together we can hopefully push on from there next season. That's not a given though, simply because the quality of the Premiership seems to have improved generally: that might not be good for us but is for the game overall.
