00:00That was a rough night for Spurs here at Bournemouth with Andres Postacoglu's side losing 1-0 after conceding a really sloppy first-half goal from a corner.
00:09After that moment when Dean Hoyston ghosted in a mark to the far post, Spurs were just abject, frankly. They'd actually started the game pretty well.
00:16They'd created very little and they owed a debt of gratitude to goalkeeper Fraser Foster for a string of smart saves to keep them in the game,
00:23as well as some really wasteful Bournemouth finishing, particularly toward the end of this match.
00:27It leaves Andres Postacoglu under a degree of pressure, I have to say, ahead of Sunday's visit of Chelsea.
00:32If Spurs lose that one as well, the mood really will feel glum and that 4-0 win over Manchester City, which was less than a fortnight ago now, will feel like a very distant memory indeed.
00:42Spurs need to bounce back to winning ways this weekend, really, after a tough week.
00:47They were mitigating circumstances, they were missing seven players again through illness, suspension or injury.
00:53Their starting players looked shattered, their bench looks inexperienced, but really this was a very poor performance.
01:00It makes it hard to make the case that Spurs are making progress under Postacoglu on nights like this one.
01:07Spurs need their inconsistent form to continue now, really. They need to get back to winning ways against Chelsea this weekend.
