Lennon, a former Spurs winger, said the players are hurting over the loss. He noted that the team should have won the game, especially with a 2-0 lead in the final minutes. Lennon felt that Tottenham didn't handle the situation well and should have known how to see out the game.
Lennon also expressed concerns about the team's squad, mentioning the departure of key players like James Maddison and Son Heung-min. He suggested that the team needs to make some signings, with links to Eberechi Eze and Savinho being mentioned.
Meanwhile, former Spurs midfielder Murphy highlighted the positive aspects of the team's performance. He praised the team's discipline and control, which they gained through hard work. Murphy noted that even when the team dropped deep, they were still able to hold their own.
He also pointed out that set-plays were a key part of Frank's Brentford team last season and could be a good thing for Tottenham this season. Murphy expressed optimism about the team's future, saying that getting back into the European places and having a good run in the Champions League would be realistic.
He also mentioned that there are still a few weeks left in the transfer window, which could bring in new competition for places and younger players with more experience.
