Supporters’ Reactions to Tottenham’s 4-0 Away Victory Over Manchester City

Following Saturday’s Premier League encounter between Manchester City and Tottenham, a match in which Spurs achieved a significant 4-0 away triumph, we solicited feedback from fans. The following are some of their observations: **Man City fans** John commented: “Lethargic, lazy and leggy. The defence is a shambles. Gundo no longer the player he was – should not be starting. Foden way off form. Savinho struggling. Walker as captain is a joke. Rico Lewis not strong enough. I say give the youngsters a go – McAtee, O’Reilly, Wright and Nunes. They cannot be any worse than what is happening now.” Pedro stated: “Disappointing result of course, but we had chances all through the match. We need to defend better as a whole team. Fitness levels need to improve and they will as the players coming back get fitter. Win on Tuesday is a must, and Liverpool will be tough, but not impossible. Pressure is also on them at home. In Pep we trust.” Geoff remarked: “Too many errors forced by Spurs. Excellent deep pressing and City did not have an answer, not even a long ball out when plan B was tried. Pep’s low tempo possession tactics are finished as is this City squad. Time for big changes, but can Pep change his ways? I doubt he can.” Jon suggested: “There must be more to this than we know. Yes, certain injuries are a huge obstacle, but this squad have overcome obstacles before without anything even like this utter collapse in form. I could only speculate about what it is, but there is clearly something else going on.” **Spurs fans** Oli shared: “Fantastic stuff. How Ange managed to get the message across to the players in such a short period of time was very impressive. The in-game management was much improved. I think Ange has earned the right for a bit of inconsistency and we should now back him fully to the end of season minimum.” Matt observed: “Maddison will rightly get the headlines, but what a defensive showing. Vicario immense and Dragusin, Davies and Bissouma in front of him brilliant. Bissouma deserves a lot of credit for a disciplined game after getting booked in the first minute, and you wouldn’t think Davies was our fourth choice centre-back after that performance.” Kelvo noted: “For too long Spurs have been spooked playing the biggest Premier League teams, being spineless over being outplayed. This was 90 minutes of assured and cohesive team performance unfazed by the, albeit recently impaired, Goliath opposition. We’d be top without capitulation at Brighton and wins vs Palace and Ipswich… how do we find that missing piece?” Robert commented: “I doubt anybody saw this result coming, particularly after last weekend’s insipid performance against Ipswich. To a man, Spurs were sensational and fully deserved the win. The quandary for Ange is how does he get the team playing like this every week? If he can crack that, we’d be a force to be reckoned with and that elusive trophy would arrive.”
