    * OMT Tottenham Hotspur v the Public Investment Fund *

    You could maybe do it, doesn’t solve the CB issue however. Clearly Conte didn’t think he could trust Dier and Romero on their own and on todays showing in a 4 can you blame him?? I hate 5 at the back btw, and I hate being outnumbered in the middle of the pitch but I can at least see why Conte...

    * OMT Tottenham Hotspur v the Public Investment Fund *

    So I do wonder if everyone demanding we play 4 at the back understands now why Conte didn’t do it. Or will it be the managers fault yet again rather then taking a long hard look at the players and realise after countless managers it’s them who are the issue (or at least some of them). Or...

    The Immense Struggle to avoid the European Conference League

    EL is worth it, it’s a route to CL and at least a decent shot of a trophy. Conference league with all the weird travel would hurt us more then we gain tbh.

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Bournemouth ***

    As great as getting into Europe is, somehow I think at that point we may do better with a season without distractions

    If Everton go down and do have finance issues would be tempted to nab Pickford, while not perfect his use of the ball is good and is HG

    New New Manager Poll (The Lets Get It Right This Time Edition)

    DOF first, else you get someone like Poch then have to reset again if/when it fails. The DoF is supposed to be the constant so we are not constantly refreshing. besides if as gutter suggests Poch is some super coach who automatically improves all players then shouldn’t matter who the DoF is...

    Christian Stellini - Acting Head Coach for a small part of the season

    https://www.football.london/tottenham-hotspur-fc/news/tearful-cristian-stellini-tottenham-crisis-26611226?utm_source=linkCopy&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=sharebar away from the Everton game for a second, was an interesting read on him as i didn't know much about him prior to joining us.

    *** OMT Spurs vs Everton ***

    Bringing on Sarr while Lloris, Dier and Romero are playing walking tippy tappy at the back, then see Peresic stuck back there at RB being walked around?? yes an extra mid would have been nice, but ffs it was 10vs11, so I do not accept that subs or bringing on an extra mid cost us anything. The...

    *** OMT Spurs vs Everton ***

    The subs were fine to be honest in principle, Lenglet was walking a tight rope, already gave a foul away after the yellow so the choice was to drop to a 4 which we haven’t really practiced or play this season or play Sanchez who didn’t really do anything wrong. Also needed to try to pressure...

    *** OMT Spurs vs Everton ***

    Ah we really blaming having 2 mids when playing against 10 men, I said it in the Conte thread and will say it again, the culture of this club is just wrong - tinkling around in defence luring them onto us, they ran we waltzed about. Dier/Romero/Skipp/Langlet just no. Down to 10 men they also...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    Lads it’s Tottenham. that saying wasn’t due to our manager but rather our culture and perception that we fold under pressure, our culture was not and is not built around winning no matter what, more around pretty football but no substance. We have never shaken it, I was glad we got Conte as I...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    that’s why I mentioned the underdog part, we were never expected to beat Ajax. Same with our odd record against City, no pressure so we perform suddenly. not sure if we do have the most points from losing positions or not, but have to look at some of those games and wonder why did it have to...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    Self imploding is a team thing and yes every single player, including the great Kane buckles under pressure. Front foot, underdogs then we look great but the second we try to defend or have an expectation to win (genuine one) we buckle/can’t be bothered. That seems to be a culture thing to me...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    now imagine same team have a self implode button, don’t track back, lacks concentration/self belief to concede goals by mistake every single game. I would say welcome to Tottenham lol

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    Listened to the rant, i dont think Conte is the answer but i do agree with everything he has said. For too long at this club have we down-tooled for a manager, did it under Poch, did it under Mourinho, under Conte etc etc.. There is no other explanation other then the players for the sometimes...

    The Conte In/Out Poll

    We do have some good players, some very good ones and arguably a couple of “world class” ones but are they in the Poch mould?? Unless he has stepped away a bit from his high energy pressing game I’m struggling to see who would really flourish and would probably mean having to lose Kane for a...

    The Conte In/Out Poll

    I imagine Sarr and Bentancur being overrun in midfield, Kane further away from the 6 yard box, Romero getting sent off every few games due to no cover, dier heading into his own net after a poor attempted clearance from Lloris. Not seen enough of Porro or Udogie to fairly comment, other then...

    The Conte In/Out Poll

    You think? Let’s look at it - players here before Poch: Kane/Lamela/Lloris/Dembele/Verts/Rose/Walker/Eriksen - for me that’s the core of our best team. Take a look at his signings, we had dele/Wanyama/Alderweireld/dier and Sonny. Care to name his other 22? I see the names of Fazio, N’Jie etc...

    The Conte In/Out Poll

    We are 5th in the league, other then Saudi Sportswashing Machine who should we be outperforming? We are certainly not better player wise then Chels or Pool, our Defence and GK are barely top 6 material yet there we are again flirting with top 4. Conte may or may not be the answer, Poch certainly is not he has...

    The Conte In/Out Poll

    When are we going to stop begging for the manager to be kicked out and start focusing on getting rid of the weak minded players. We have had enough top quality managers over the last few years, but the same tired weak minded fold under pressure key players who you can guarantee make mistakes...
