    Have to say, I find the recent rush to condemn VdV in this thread pretty poor form. He certainly looks like a potentially great LB. Obviously the Dutch national side agree.

    I think that's unfair mate. I've met him, he's a very decent, earnest and yes, young guy, but he essentially been told to play in a system which does not make the best of his talents; our current style leaves him as a penalty box defender of which he is not the best of the best (he will...

    Levy's Plan

    It comes down to whether he would actually be able to lift the players spirits or not. I genuinely have no clue. My heart says he absolutely would, my head has no fudging clue, my shame creeps across me as I even think about it LOL...but with 9 games to go to stay in this league, 'shame' is not...

    Summerville injured. That is massively helpful for us.

    The "If we go down" thread

    I despise that writer. He has attacked us for several years and been personal doing it.

    +++OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Liverpool+++

    I think uptop I'd put Richy on the left (narrow). I like Spence in there on the right, and start Solanke. In fairness, if someone like our Mock T takes the time to tell them, this is not a bad side if they show up and leaves us with some options off the bench! I will say, if he does NOT start...

    I am telling you mate, the system of operation has changed massively and the net result is 'who is leading'... I'm sure you can see it too. Levy was a single-point decision maker/micro-manager who had a very distinct 'way' in place, to the extent that players and fellow chairman did not dislike...

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    Right. Except the weight of blame is not really the coaches to share. He did the right thing given the lack of money available (supposedly) and not wanting to tinkles it up the wall on spaff. If Levy had taken 70-75 mill for Eriksen and allowed Poch to buy a replacement, if he'd sold Toby when...

    We played with attacking intent. Despite having 'limited Hoddle/Maddison' players (well, one) we looked to create overloads in higher areas of the pitch with inverted FBs. Whether you agree with the idea or not, saying there was 'no difference' between the two styles is utterly, utterly...

    OMT Spurs v Athletico

    Mate, IMO you really, really need to leave the 'quality' argument aside. We are what we are and we have what have. That is it! There is no mythical Hoddle/Maddison hybrid coming to save us. We have to find ways with the lot we have. This is now a mini-season. Someone needs to get in their heads...

    Sigh... There are many more ways of using the middle of the pitch to progress the ball beyond simply relying on a passing midfielder. For example, using ball carriers through the middle to connect with 10s such as Simons. Or to feed to Kudus but from central areas. So this 'evidence' stuff is...

    The Saudi Sportswashing Machine game was one of the worst performances I have seen in many, many years. Shocking!!!

    Interested in your source? Here are some from squawka: <<Tottenham have attempted just 11 through balls in 21 league games in 2025/26, the fewest of any side in the Premier League this season. Nine players have attempted more through balls than Tottenham in the Premier League so far this...

    OMT Spurs v Athletico

    Barcelona and another team complained. The stories are out there. I can post them if you want. In fact, even worse, the company AM used to relay the pitch after NFL stuff are the same company we use for our pitch (we also have had traction issues). Besides, even if it was down to the pitch...
