How? I never said that we should never spend money. I was simply disagreeing with your statement 'better players ALWAYS cost more'.
You're just throwing that pasta against the wall aren't you? I'm gonna help you out Sammy...We should have gotten some players last summer. It was wrong to stand pat. Nowwwwwwwww go!!!!!!
Yes, his first yellow could have been a red. 2nd one I never got a good replay on, but it looked like a pull back.Missed the game did Aurier deserve the red? But great win seems we showed fight for the first time in a long time
OK, Like I said, using your sample size where Eriksen and Sissoko's tackle rates are almost identical, does that mean Eriksen is as brave or Sissoko or Sissoko is a bottler like Eriksen?
Two very justified yellowsMissed the game did Aurier deserve the red? But great win seems we showed fight for the first time in a long time
Massive 3 points, fairly confident that we will win the next 2 league games as well; Brighton away and Watford at home, wouldn't even be that surprised if we manage to get a point at Anfield next month.
I applaud how disingenuous you are because for someone that writes a lot you seem to disregard everything other than pure stats. Eriksen isn’t labelled a bottler for not being able to tackle, he is labelled a bottler because he pussies out of challenges he is a favourite to win. If he nicks the ball from a dawdling CM on the half way line he’s not exactly going to win a bravery award. This is why stats don’t prove most arguments.
Trippier made the most tackles by far out of any Spurs player last season. Does that make him the best defender? Is he the most brave? It probably means his side was targeted because he was the weak link. It’s also completely different tackling a winger with all the skill in the world vs tackling a CM with the technical ability of say Sissoko.
The point as always is you try and use stats for your agenda but 90% of this forum just laugh at you because they use their own eyes and see that it proves nothing.
