Amazing isn't it. As if people haven't learnt a thing about the unpredictability of football. Especially being Spurs fans.

The thing is our draw at the weekend actually took us a point closer to Liverpool, we closed the gap. Hardly worth the melt. (3,2,1.....cue the "ah but, we SHOULD be level on points, just not good enough" quotes)
I wish I could enjoy them, but having heard exactly the same shite from our own melts destroys the fun.
We didn’t lose and played on a terrible pitch with half the team ill. Liverpool played on a decent surface and lost to the bottom side. The difference is obvious.
Agreed.
Plus we are the only team to beat Swansea in their last five games I just heard
Without Kane too.
The only predictable result is year after year Spurs fail to win at Anfield. We have to win the home matches.
All those melts writing off our top 4 credentials after yesterday forgot something. Liverpool were yet to play and the scouse bottlers showed up as expected.
Jürgen Klopp, the greatest defensive coach in the league (for all other teams but his own)All those melts writing off our top 4 credentials after yesterday forgot something. Liverpool were yet to play and the scouse bottlers showed up as expected.
Good morning after Swansea doing us a big favour against Liverpool last night I certainly feels better than I did after our game against Southampton. I predict we’ll take all 9 points from our next 3 games.

Because quantity gives the team options, we’d be stuffed if our quality £60 million signing gets a long term injury....just sayin’
In the January transfer window there isn’t much quality about anyway. Better players will be available in the summer when the top 4 teams and Champions League for next season will be known.
Agree we don’t, we simply need to be the strong side we are and let our football do the talking.
Not read the thread but anyone writing off our top 4 chances based on the weekend just gone (I'm sure there's a few of you), are welcome to spend the rest of the day riding my rock hard diamond-cutter trouser pole. Ya bunch of melts o' fuck.
The main difference is that our playmaker caught a cold in Barcelona and they left theirs there forever...
Guido 🇺🇦 form is temporary and although we are unable to read the future it is highly unlikely that we will be able to replicate an output of 4 wins and 2 draws in our next 6 Premier League matches to:
- Man U (H)
- Liverpool (A)
- Woolwich (H)
- Crystal Palace (A)
- Huddersfield (H)
- Bournemouth (A)
If we can get 14 points from those fixtures considering we have Champions League and FA Cup fixtures sprinkled in between, we will finish in the top 4, maybe even top 3. However, the only result I am confident in is a win at home to Huddersfield. The others can easily be a draw or a loss.
In short, do not use the form argument when it is convenient. Talk about schedule now. We have a tough tough tough schedule ahead, and therefore, the least we should have done was beat Southampton, a team who were bottom or thereabouts in the form table as they hadn't won a game in 10 if we truly have this ambition Poch speaks of... We need to beat teams like Soton whether home or away.
Perspective.
Agree it’s a tough schedule but i’m sure Pochettino & the squad can and will handle it. The difference for me with the squad we have built up is this....I look at the fixtures and think yes we can win this, sometimes i’m Wrong but that’s football. I predict we’ll get top 4, win the FA Cup and reach the Champions League Final this season.
It is a shame but it doesn't have to be the reality . If we had been bolder in the transfer market over the years, gambled say when Harry had a chance of the league , retained players by showing we were building round them to win things ,
then our revenue would have increased via better sponsorship deals , global merchandise sales .
We never take a punt on success.
Disagree all you want but you are. Always being negative and you're certainly not a Spurs fan.
Do one, pal.
