Same Shape, Same Punishment
This wasn’t a derby. Not really. A derby needs fight, edge, and moments where you feel the shirt means something.
What Tottenham found
- Gaps between our lines that might as well have been invitations.
- A midfield that didn’t protect the back line.
- Wing-backs pinned and centre-backs dragged into places they don’t want to be.
We didn’t lose because Spurs are Spurs. We lost because we made ourselves easy.
Final thought: If we’re going to suffer, at least suffer fighting. Not waiting.
