Attacking players should [especially] feel responsibility because we had chances to kill the game.”Spurs officially lost their start-of-the-season pizzazz, Trippier assisted the wrong wayUltimately, though, West Ham were clinical and Tottenham couldn’t fight back despite 23 attempts on and off the target.”If you dominate a game of football you have to turn it into something meaningful and we didn’t,” Postecoglou added on BBC Match of the Day.”We let ourselves down when we should have won the games [we have taken the lead in] comfortably.”Tottenham made a brilliant start to the Premier League season, winning eight of their first 10 matches.##NAJAVA_MECA_7729443##But they last tasted victory in October and have now lost three consecutive league home fixtures for the first time since September 2008, when they were managed by Juande Ramos.Tottenham face Newcastle in the Premier League in their next match on Sunday.ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 16Saturday15.30: (6.75) Crystal Palace (4.30) Liverpool (1.55)18.00: (4.60) Sheffield Utd (3.60) Brentford (1.80)18.00: (1.50) Brighton (4.30) Burnley (6.50)18.00: (1.55) Man.Utd.
