Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

We are SUCH stupid fucking pricks.

Toby... Rose.... want out do ya? Fine. Fuck off... if you can't keep help a clean sheet against West Brom... you don't DESERVE to be at our club...

As for the rest of them... FUUUUUCK !

This is why us Spurs fans have a losers mentality and don't ever have the confidence to think we'll win... is it any fucking surprise when we pull a performance like THAT out of our Arse?

Fucks sake!

All down to Newcastle and Leiscster now
.. who you KNOW will turn up! Unlike today when they BOTH COULDN'T WAIT to have their tummies tickled!

And to think I'd have been happy with 0-0 on 91mins..
Fuck... FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK IT!
Jesus mate I agree with you but stop acting like this is rawk
 
Poch sticking with a back 3 until the 85th minute was madness. We weren’t getting enough from Rose and Trippier to justify 3 CBs. Like for like was equally stupifying given that WBA didn’t even go for a goal until the 80th minute, which was the game plan all along.

Tactics at fault today more than the players. Hope for a draw tomorrow I guess.
Nah 3 at the back worked for me. They only looked a threat when Poch switched it to a 4-4-2 and put Llorente on. We lost our shape and looked lost.
 
Im struggling to think of positives because even Man Utd lost to these just several weeks ago. But we really needed a win to secure top 4 but it seemed like we just couldn't be bothered.
My positive is that West Brom were the most ‘park the bus’ of our last three games and in good form.

The other two (Newcastle and Leicester) are in poorer form and we get to play them both at home. Those two matches will not be like today, whatever the results end up being.
 
We need our players to learn how to grind out wins. Right now we are great when things go our way and we can play fluid football. But we struggle with grinding out "shitty" wins. We will never become a top team unless we learn that.
 
Still waiting for someone to show me how Toby and Rose made us better....

Where are you all?

Did you see that corner? Can you show me where they improved our team?

Yeah leicester & newcastle are both on the beach. You couldn't really ask for 2 better teams to play at home now. What can possibly go wrong?!
 
I hate to say it, but we started getting shaky the moment Kane returned (too soon, in retrospect) from injury. We had a real verve in his absence that we've lost since his return.

We have to get our heads back in the game. Newcastle and Leicester are going to come to Wembley with the same game plan as West Brom and, if we play like we did today, they're going to get a similar result.
 
These teams know how to play against us. It’s happened for ages now. I’m just a supporter and I can see it. Yet we surely know this and just haven’t found a solution.
Full backs go wide then someone runs on the inside, we pass to them then they try to cross/pull back. I haven’t seen that work ever!!
Try and play like Barca but haven’t got a Messi or someone that drives and moves the ball. So slow.
Don’t care about possession, care about winning. West Brom had about 25%
Too many players wearing Adidas trampolines today because first touch was horrendous.
This has been coming and will continue if we keep using those patterns of play.
Hate losing
 
So we now face the prospect of replacing ourselves as the biggest laughing stock in world football if Chavs catch us.
And to rub it in even more, our fans could be paying the highest ticket prices in the world to watch a Europa league team.
 
It's not an over reaction. We should have had and just about did have top 4 wrapped up 4 games ago. and yet here we are sweating and a big chance we won't make it.
That is just not acceptable in any shape or form.
I understand that but this is a team fighting for their jobs, they just beat the 2nd place team at their place too, its not like we're the only team to lose to them, it wasn't a great performance but it wasn't the worst either, we were just too predictable, but overall 1 point of West Brom this season is aweful
