Awful, awful miss by Richarlison
He won’t get sacked. They’ll get more wins than not with the good football they play.
FT 1-1
Good for Leicester who weren't in it first half

They've got a tricky set of fixtures. He could be gone by mid October.
Spurs looked like the championship team in the second half
It is the history of Tottenham.
In before they smash us next week.
New season, same spurs. Too open. Needs to switch to double pivot or 3-2 not 2-3 at back.
Heritage
Never change, Spurs. 
Spurs still not clinical.
Could have scored about 6 against a team that looked for all the world a Championship side for most of the game and somehow contrived not to win.
God bless Spurs for providing some light relief on an opening gameweek where not much of interest happened.

So Leicester just have to do that ten or so more times and they'll probably be on zero?
This is just one of the problems Spurs will have, Big Ange really has no plan B, just attack. And keeping that press intensity up over the whole season and multiple competitions requires a deep bench and rotation which Spurs don't have.
That was very spursy
There are 3 painfully average players. They're quite poor going forward this year. Son will get his fair share as usual, the rest will struggle.
For all their shots, Spurs generated 1.23 xG less than United. The difference in opposition goes without saying.
They are coached well and press a lot, but terrible in the final third, quality issue, and obviously Spursy things up eventually. Still have them on for a 4th place finish, but a lot rests on the rest being poor.

Spurs will struggle to finish top 4. They will destroy some teams but the high line they play without having a midfield that can control a game is suicidal. Only a matter of time before the media start changing their tune around Ange, from exciting to naïve.
Vardy's not human.
Can't stand the cnut off the field but always want to see him do well on it.

Spursy, very spursy.
Spurs were good for most of the game but not clinical. Still think they’ll finish top 5
Yeah, which is to be expected when you look at their attacking options. Other than Son and Solanke, who needs to settle into the team, they don't really have any proven goalscorers.
It's pretty much the same situation we find ourselves in.
Spurs aren’t finishing in top 4. Pretty sure of it.
Three forwards who aren't very good at football but they press well.
Our very own Nr 7.
This guy
The eyes
Carragher trying to make a silk purse out of a sows ear over Liverpool not bringing in a single player.
They need to learn how to finish games off to make the top 5.
