“Another bang average season” – Former Spurs midfielder blasts team after defeat to Palace

Tottenham Hotspur have been knocked out of both domestic cup competitions within the space of four days, ending the club’s realistic chances of finishing the season with silverware.

While Tottenham bowed out of the Carabao Cup at the semi-final stage on penalties, a weakened side was brushed aside by Crystal Palace in the fourth round of the FA Cup yesterday afternoon.

Some fans took to social media to voice their frustration at what looks like another trophyless season for the club, which now nearly extends to an eleven-year period.

Pochettino came out fighting in his post-match press conference and insisted that retaining a Champions League spot was more important than getting their hands on silverware.

By the looks of it, former Tottenham midfielder Jamie O’Hara certainly disagreed with that assessment as he went on a rant after the defeat to Palace about how Spurs are having a bang average season.

If anything, it is refreshing to see a former player give an honest assessment rather than worrying about upsetting the club and jeopardising any chance of future work within their hospitality areas.

However, the midfielder seemed to gather himself a few hours later and provided a much more sober assessment.

Truth to be told, O’Hara was hardly the only one to have lost his cool after the Palace display with many Spurs fans reacting in a similar manner.
