Tottenham Hotspur missed an opportunity to further solidify their position in the top four following a home loss to Brighton & Hove Albion. Arsenal lost this week to Southampton, so Spurs missed out on the opportunity to distance themselves from The Gunners.
Furthermore, Manchester United picked up a win too to put themselves back in the conversation for the final UEFA Champions League. Despite there being primary concern regarding Tottenham’s missed opportunity, The Athletic relayed the remarks relayed by Lucas Moura, who has a positive mindset.
Although Spurs had a disappointing result against The Seagulls, all hope isn’t lost in Moura’s eyes regardless of the squad’s pressure to hold onto their current spot.
“We are all disappointed,” said Moura. “It was a very bad game and we didn’t play well at all. We need to learn from these kinds of games. There is no time to cry. Let’s go for the next game.”
“The top four is still possible and it is our objective. We can’t lose our minds now, we can’t lose our head, because we played really well the last few games. We look at the table but we knew the fight would be until the end. We need to fight, we need to work hard for the next game.”
The north London club will head to the Brentford Community Stadium for their matchup with The Bees. Meanwhile, Arsenal has a midweek fixture against Chelsea and then welcomes Manchester United for a matchup that will draw Spurs supporters to watch.
Before their tilt at the Emirates, The Red Devils will head to Anfield for a Tuesday match against Liverpool. So this week sees Tottenham scoreboard watching to see if both teams chasing them will drop points.
Let’s go for the next game, let’s work hard for the next game, the get out of jail card for losers.
Brighton have become a “blot on the landscape ” as far as Spurs are concerned , a team we have to learn to play ina different style . Al part of being a top 4 side , yeah .
We will make this , horrible blip but we can get over this and cement 4th place .
Its also a nudge for the Chairman because these results dont [always ] happen to top teams , he can and will put his hand in his pocket if we get CL , he just has to ……………
Like to see him get in the area more often ..dark arts comment but I’m sure he would win us penalties.
The Community Stadium will be rocking. Can only hope they attack us from the off and Kane doesn’t have jet lag so we can counter in the usual style.
I think we should keep him as a bench cover player though, his dribbling skills unsettle defences and he is surprisingly good in the air. If only having beaten 2 players he didn’t try and beat a 3rd but made the pass or took the shot. He got some important goals early season and Kulu can’t play twice a week for an entire season..
Not enough football…maybe..
Brentford won’t be easy. The teams we still have to play only have to look at out Brighton failure to get a template for their own success against us. North London wobbles seem to be spreading…
Lucas is a lovely lad, but he’s disappointed me in his performances this season especially, has great talent but we’ve seen so little from him, he’s always in his comfort zone, so what happened to you mate ?
