Antonio Conte’s facet suffered a late collapse towards the Portuguese facet as two stoppage-time targets noticed Spurs to a 2-0 defeat at the Jose Alvalade Stadium.
It ends Tottenham’s unbeaten begin to the season – and lots of consider Conte has put earlier questions over the membership’s mentality to mattress.
However not Cundy.
Whereas the ex-Chelsea man admitted that Spurs didn’t should lose the sport, he couldn’t resist poking enjoyable at their lack of ability to see out the match.
Cundy instructed the Sports Bar: “It wasn’t good, however I don’t understand how Spurs have misplaced that recreation.

“You’ve had a great begin to the season result-wise, however performance-wise? Unconvincing. I’ve by no means come away from a Spurs recreation and gone ‘wow, they’re going to trigger issues.’
“You’ve stumbled and tripped to outcomes. You’ve not been good in numerous video games that I’ve seen, however you’ve managed to get outcomes. That claims one thing concerning the workforce.
“You must have gotten beat at Stamford Bridge however you drew. You must have drawn tonight, however you bought beat.
“I don’t fairly understand how you’ve dropped factors tonight as a result of they weren’t nice. They weren’t good, they weren’t two targets higher than Spurs.

“He’s not 15-20 targets a season man, he’s not. Tonight, we noticed that. We noticed that he’s not the person who will dig you out of a state of affairs.
“Harry Kane is the person. He’s nonetheless the person. If Kane doesn’t rating in video games which might be tight, the place are the targets?”
Cundy added: “That was Spursy as a result of it was a recreation that you just shouldn’t have misplaced. That criticism and that label is at all times going to be there since you’re nonetheless Spurs.”
Jamie O’Hara wasn’t having any of it although, saying: “It wasn’t a Spursy efficiency, I feel you’re being a bit harsh there.
“Within the first recreation we lose it’s immediately ‘oh, it’s Spursy once more’. You’re simply leaping on the truth we’re going backwards once more.
“Tonight wasn’t nice, it wasn’t an excellent efficiency. It had 0-0 written throughout it however the defence on the finish allow us to down.”
Responding to feedback about conceding within the 89th minute, O’Hara snapped again: “It’s going to occur. We’re going to lose video games this season.”
