“Top 4 gone”- Fans share dismay on Twitter as Spurs top crucial points against Brentford – ToTheLaneAndBack – Tottenham Fan Site

Tottenham Hotspur had to settle for a draw against Brentford which saw their hopes for a top-four finish slowly slip away from their grasp. The Lilwyhites were having an impressive run of form in the last few Premier League fixtures barring their loss against Brighton & Hove Albion.
The game was played out in a scruffy manner but none of the teams managed to ultimately get on the scoresheet. Spurs lacked any real intent in the first half but seemed to bring more attacking prowess at the start of the second half.
The Bees had the better of the opportunities on the day. Harry Kane made a pivotal block on the line in the 66th minute when Pontus Jansson steered a decent header on Tottenham’s goal. Ivan Toney hit the woodwork twice on the night, one of them being in extra time.

The Lilwyhites have now managed to secure only one point from their last two Pl matches which means that the hopes of UEFA Champions League qualification seem like a very tough task. These fears are compounded by the fact that Arsenal have recorded impressive victories against Chelsea and Manchester United respectively in their last two fixtures.
Spurs once again failed to record a shot on target and they seemed to lack the clinical edge in the final third once again. Antonio Conte did bring in Davinson Sanchez and Lucas Moura in an attempt to rile something up but the scoreline remained goalless on the day.
Brentford should be given due credit for being well-drilled and asserting themselves in the middle of the pitch. The home side played a great game but Spurs are showing worrying signs going ahead. The Lilwyhites will need much better performances in the upcoming matches if they want to stay in the hunt for a top-four finish this campaign.
Put these last 2 games in perspective. Before them we were the highest scores of the year. Now we havent had a shot on target and took 1 point from 6. Teams have found us out. And conte wont change things. I'll take 5th but we all know what's to happen if we keep dropping points

Top 4 gone…
Dreadful …and the last two games a lot of that is on conte …zero ideas how to change it
Arsenal last 2 games beat Chelsea and utd whereas we lose to Brighton and draw with Brentford. Clear to see what team wants top 4 more. We are weak and can't handle any type of pressure
* we’ll learn from this
* we’ll come back stronger
* we are as frustrated as the fans but we’ll work hard
* every game is a cup final now
* full focus on the next game

I'm beginning to think maybe bringing Pochetino back isn't a bad idea. Conte is really adamant on sticking with 343 even when we don't have players for that.
Frustrating result but the race ain’t over yet
So disappointing.
You're in a fight for top 4 and that was the performance you put in?! 😔
Second half was the same as Brighton game.
Second half only a bit better. So many loose balls.
Losing Doc seems to have lost our ability to play
