Match Another pissing game we won’t turn up to, have to suffer Emerson again and hope Kane or Deki save us - AKA Leeds at home, 3pm, 12th November.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Don't know what to expect here. We've only won 5 of our last 12. Players have been run into the ground. If Kulusevski and Richarlison are fit enough to start this one it might go well... If not, it won't be pretty. Some requests.. No Sessegnon, or Sanchez. No Skipp playing as an 8 in 3-5-2. No Perisic in a front two.

Can't see us picking up any points here.

Kane has already checked out and is saving himself for the World Cup. If he starts, we are essentially playing with 10 men.

Leeds only need to start aggressive and on the front foot. A few hard tackles and our World Cup boys will curl up and hide from the ball.

it seems that way, apparently conte said he was showing signs of bad fatigue in training before forest and that hes shattered...well why fucking start him then. go richy, gil and kulu up top for this. gil and kulu will be bang up for it and richarlison wont know how to be half hearted. got to play as many players that arent going to the world cup as possible.

Yup, yesterday was the first time since Nunoball that I just turned off a game.

Might watch this one cos Leeds make things fun, but frankly, even a win doesn't have much joy when you know the next game won't be much fun and the team is just running on a treadmill. A good half-season, shit gets bad, manager get fired, repeat forever.

Hi all. Am going to my first game for a while and I’m look for somewhere to park ideally near where I used to park (Edmonton ikea) or around Brantwood industrial estate.
Any help would be much appreciated

Daniel can do you a good deal on half the pitch for the first 45 minutes.
Just don't spoil the Leeds keeper's view too much.

Not sure which team will turn up:

1. The one that stifles the game with loads of dangerous passes across the back five before hoofing up the pitch to the opposition, but then we score a late lucky breakaway goal and leaves us all saying what a master tactician Conte is.

2.. The one that stifles the game with loads of dangerous passes across the back five before hoofing up the pitch to the opposition, allowing them to score a late but deserved winning goal and us all shouting Conte out for being a dinosaur cunt and not playing in the ‘Tottenham’ way.

Conte has to do better with the players he has got.

This is how it works. The wing backs or central defenders play well and it's great at how Conte has got them buying into his philosophy and look at how he has improved them.

When they play badly Conte hasn't got the players he wants and they are crippling him and us.

I see it as Conte failing to get the players to play consistently to a high standard or giving them too many chances.

I simply cannot accept that it's the paucity of the players alone. No chance.

And we make no inroads on the away grounds of our main rivals and that is a poor poor show and has to be in a big part down to Conte.

Set the bar against our top six rivals and see who out of our back line gets into their squads. None of them . Our wingbacks are dirt, once Romero is out the back three constantly make individual errors.
The same players who let poch, Jose and conte down.
The players are 90% of the problem

Not a single one of them didn't look "open to it" last season.... More realistically I think certain players were playing at their ceiling, but can't sustain it on a longer term basis.

eg Dier, Sessengon, Emerson, Doherty.



Meh. £60m Richarlison wants to have a word.......

He has been injured for a few weeks in fairness, so I think he deserves a pass
