Graeme Souness gave a scathing assessment of Tottenham Hotspur's defeat to West Ham, calling it 'Spursy'.
The north London side looked jaded as they fell to a 1-0 defeat at the hands of the Hammers - the first defeat since moving into the new stadium.
It's been a frantic few weeks for Mauricio Pochettino's side after progressing to the Champions League semi-finals and it appears that such a run is starting to take its toll given the injuries to star players such as Harry Kane.

Speaking to Sky Sports, Souness says that it seems that a lack of depth in the Spurs squad is starting to prove costly.
He said: "Yeah, I think this is just the lack of numbers for Spurs coming back to bite them.
"We spoke about it before, they’ve done fabulously well to get to the semi-finals of the European Cup, but it’s come back to bite them.

"They couldn’t freshen it up, and I hate to say it, but it was a bit Spursy.
"When push comes to shove they knew how vital it was. I put it down to the quality outside the 13, 14, players isn’t there for them."
