    ***** OMT TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs. Hull City ********

    Oh dear, why do we follow this team.... we can't defend and we can't attack... Let's hope for a piece of luck or brilliance to save us.

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    I think most fans agree somewhat, but the fact is we are Tottenham, not City, not Chelsea, we can't afford to just offload a 30m investment as it just didn't work out. We just can't have another Bentley and say oh well let's try again. I think that is behind most fans patience with him, the idea...

    Lack of Pressing

    It offers a CL place tbf, that is what our club is trying to reach and it is far more likely than a league finish.

    Lack of Pressing

    I didn't see todays game but in general I agree that there is nothing so far which really suprised me. I too felt that we'd see a real aggression towards winning the ball back high up the field and forcing mistakes. We really look like last years Spurs but worse as whatever fear teams had of us...

    OMT ××××× TOTTENHAM HOTSPURS VS Villa ×××××××

    And just to add, certainly in the first half we surely played to make the game open by design. There was no effort to control it or the tempo as we have seen in previous years. Perhaps this was to draw out Villa and out fire them as their attack was perceived as weak. If we had played like that...

    OMT ××××× TOTTENHAM HOTSPURS VS Villa ×××××××

    In defense of Capoue, our set up makes his job quite difficult, our 2 full backs push on and when we are hit on the counter, our wingers do not track back...at all. That leaves him with central mid runners to cover and opposition full backs and wingers often in 2 on 1 situations with our full...

    OMT ××××× TOTTENHAM HOTSPURS VS Villa ×××××××

    A couple of their efforts were shocking. Playing them so high has left our defense really exposed and yet we get no reward. What is the point if they get into good positions and have no clue what to do next???

    OMT ××××× TOTTENHAM HOTSPURS VS Villa ×××××××

    You forgot our wingers can't defend either. A lot of attacks have come down our left where Eriksen is nowhere to be seen. Rose isn't really a defender anyway and is getting slaughtered. Because he is all over the place, our defence is shaky. If I see the headline "Villa or whoever Stun Spurs"...

    Jan Vertonghen

    Not many footballers put in transfer requests as they lose money doing so. I find it strange that this situation was made public as you hear rumours of contract negotiations stalling but not often statements saying they won't sign a new deal. A footballer turning down more money/better...

    To be fair we got away with Jan pulling a guys shorts down in the box and still not give away a pen!

    Is this the real problem at Spurs?

    The board have to project that we are trying to compete otherwise we'd want them out or they couldn't charge top 3 ticket prices if below top 4 was completely acceptable. They also couldn't sell our "project" to players not quite good enough. If you set such a high target of course expectations...

    Is this the real problem at Spurs?

    Thats a bit unfair, we can't afford the top stars so we have to go for the next best thing. And the reason they are the next best thing is that either they are young with lots of potential who will be inconsistant or top players with that lack of mentality to really make it. As others have...

    Re: Daniel Levy isn't stupid... Southampton have started the season like a team with nothing to lose and little expectations which often allows teams to perform so much better. Here there is always expectation and pressure which our team doesn't thrive on. It reminds me of when Cisse signed for...

    *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS. Saudi Sportswashing Machine*** OMT

    I agree but I know like you do that this is not the case. You can say you don't care but you "stew" on performances like this. It is what is being a Spurs fan is about, the delusion that we can outsmart the top 4 when we can't beat the bottom 3. We then learn to beat the bottom teams and the top...

    *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS. Saudi Sportswashing Machine*** OMT

    TBF I defended the dof system to many rival fans but tbh I don't know who signed who. Is is Pochs fault or Baldinis or Levys, who knows??? Clearly we signed players without the manager being involved but is the performance of that player the fault of the board or the manager they pay to make...

    *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS. Saudi Sportswashing Machine*** OMT

    I knew I'd miss one or two, Ramos is still a sore one, I just hope we are not adding Poch to that list. I have real fear for a manager who can't put his stamp on a team. You can usually see an immediate effect/change despite the results but then see a gradual improvement. With Poch, all I see is...

    *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS. Saudi Sportswashing Machine*** OMT

    Part of me loves that part of us, us just wanting good football and entertainment and at the end of the year tried to work out ridiculous scenarios of how we'd get Euro footbal. Now we don't want Europa. We want CL only but don't want to work for it, its got to happen by itself. Is it better to...

    *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR VS. Saudi Sportswashing Machine*** OMT

    Totally, so often we get away with a performance like that and get a draw or scrap a win. I was delighted to see Saudi Sportswashing Machine win tbh, as they came out wanting to try 2nd half. We don't seem to have a clue. There is no change here, we are the same team as last year. I asked before where is this...

    Official - Holtby

    That is possible too, but surely it is more Baldinis responsibility to find a buyer too. It is easy throwing big money around to get deals done as most of us gave him credit for when he first started but he must have a network of contacts to find buyers too just as he does for buying for us. I...
