Jamie Carragher has called Tottenham "a disgrace" and urged the club to bring in a "proper manager" after their 6-1 battering at the hands of Newcastle. Interim head coach Cristian Stellini watched his team be outplayed for 90 minutes on Tyneside with the Magpies firing in five goals after less than half an hour.
Goals from Alexander Isak, Joelinton and Jacob Murphy saw Eddie Howe's side fly into a dominant early lead with Callum Wilson also scoring in the second half. Harry Kane bagged a consolation goal but Spurs would have left St James' Park feeling utterly embarrassed by their display and the result.
"There's no words to explain a performance like this," Stellini said after the defeat. "The first 25 minutes were the worst I have ever seen. I hope that the system we changed to give us energy was the wrong decision. If it was that, it's my responsibility. We played with four at the back and if this is the mistake, it's my mistake."
