Andrea Dossena should be left behind, not left-back
TO describe that result as a disappointment is the understatement of the century.
Early goal by Kuyt and then total dominance, enough chances to win two matches but eventually the same old problem rears its head again.
We dominate a game but fail to capitalise.
Chelsea had responded to our victory there last week with two resounding wins.
We won with a penalty during the week and then on Saturday blow a lead against the team that's bottom of the table.
Carragher had a rare off day but maybe he has to spend too much of his time compensating for Dossena at left back.
Left back? He should be left behind. An old joke I know but the Italian continually fails to impress.
He could have done more to stop Bent's cross for Spurs' winner and looks permanently a yard off the pace.
Reina too looked a bundle of nerves. Rafa usually manages to change a game with his subs but on this occasion we just got worse.
Riera and Keane went off and Babel and Benayoun did little. We miss a Crouch-type player up front in games like these and in conditions like that.
All Spurs did was pick up the pace and look for opportunities to whip the ball into the box and eventually they got lucky. We didn't.
We are off the top now and Chelsea's goal difference is already nearly three times better than ours.
That statistic alone demonstrates the problem.
We need Torres back yes, but we also need more options up front.

Dossena is really a not very good player..
Aurelio should be first choice and even then, he is not a superb enough player for us.
We need someone really reliable.
And Dossena is really looking like a flop, sad to say.
He should be dropped indefinitely.
Andrea Dossena is not settling in,we need
a useful,energetic,quick-thinking left-back.
Aurelio is the best option right now,but we need a decent left-back.
