    Next seasons squad

    I think that's a solid observation. But time will tell what things look like with a full season and without every game having these ridiculous stakes to them.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    I think it will be enough, but being down to two games (4 including West Ham’s games) it will also be down to luck/variance, anything can happen in a game of football. Regardless of the ultimate outcome he's done really well. Given us a reason to hope and believe and a reason to look towards a...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds United, Mon May 11th, 8pm, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium***

    Frustrating not to get the win, was a somewhat close game but think we were the better side. Crumbled a bit after the penalty, shows how limited our confidence still is and how much we miss some of our better players. All in all though a decent performance. Shame about the penalty for Tel after...

    Conor Gallagher

    Can work well in a box to box/8 role too imo. But it requires a team that is otherwise functional in terms of ball progression and ball retention and doesn't expect him to provide that. In the setup we saw yesterday I think he obviously did well. A game focused a lot on pressing and winning the...

    Mathys Tel

    Agreed that he had a good game. Thought the assist was an example of what both excites and frustrates with him. Was a pretty obvious pass on, to Porro I think. He went for the cross instead and it paid off. I really like that, he takes responsibility, tries to make things happen, believes in...

    Rodrigo Bentancur

    Hopefully that's actually true. As Gazza Dazzla pointed out, different instructions and a different way of playing is doing him really good I think. And right now he's looking important.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa, Sun May 3rd, 7pm, Villa Park ***

    Fantastic to get the win and move out of the relegation zone. Thought the performance was really good given the surrounding context/circumstances. Villa were poor, particularly in the first half, but we made the most of it and made it difficult for them. Players showed great intensity and...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers, Molineux, Sat 25th April, 3pm - ***

    Fully agreed. The effort was absolutely there. The fight was there. They struggled at times with controlling their frustration about the thing, but that's only natural I think. But our struggles don't look like a lack of caring or trying. So much quality lacking through injuries it's unreal. Us...

    The we are staying up thread

    While there are obviously things that can be done to impact confidence and belief away from results I think getting results is the only way to really shift the needle on confidence and belief. For the first time in ages we'll go into a league game having won the last league game. That will do us...

    The *WHEN* we go down thread

    That period of the game when West Ham were winning, Simons getting that injury, we fell apart a bit for a while there it looked to me at least - didn't find a way to play. That period it felt like the title of this thread... But not without a fight we won't. Really well done to the players and...

    Well done Kinsky on many levels. Lovely to see.

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers, Molineux, Sat 25th April, 3pm - ***

    fudging hell we needed that. What an emotional roller coaster of a game with the changes to the West Ham score, injuries, is looking good at times looking like we may fall apart at times, the goal, the save at the end. New injuries will make things difficult, but a win should boost our...

    Luka Vuskovic

    I don't know what the best plan is with him. I do think our plan should be to get players here used to winning games too next season...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Don't think later years Kane could physically do what he could do earlier in his career. Kane to me seems the closest we've had to a model pro at the club in many years. Since Bale/Modric/whoever. The expectation of him to be perfect regardless of the circumstances is part of what I was...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    To me "giving their all" will absolutely be influenced by belief in what the manager is trying to instill. To me that just seems like human psychology. Doesn't matter how much money they're paid, how professional they're supposed to be. If there's real belief there that will get more out of the...
