Dele is the poster boy for this Spurs squad. Even from afar at this point. All the talent, none of the heart.

Sadly , I think we all know deep down , Levy is going nowhere , we really are in a terrible mess
Don't buy that, he looks ill and stressed out. Not quite smirking as far as I can see.
I think it’s a generalisation. All of them
I meant smirking when he got that offer of a lifetime that he knew he could never get from anywhere else.
The guys a miserable cunt and always has been.
What makes you so confident ? Which ones out of them three played v AS Moura or Boro or any of the other shit house teams we lost to in the past 5 years ?
Exactly, Levy has bought his castle, so he is king. We've been had.
I agree, if I was a player at spurs now and hearing what conte has said about me tonight, he would be getting his teeth knocked down his throat at training on Monday morning
They absolutely wouldn’t be
Dan wants to stay until we get our £25m a year Stadium naming rights deal. It’s only 4 years late. Costing only a cool £25m in lost revenue. #mychairman
Someone gotta take a stand.That will show him…..
Dier has started each match in recent years against City and we're 3-0-1 vs them in the past 2 years (and even over the past 5 seasons). Easy to cherry pick examples.
My point was that the rest of the world can see our player's flaws...you've just said it yourself. But it's hard to have convos like that on a board of happy clappers that keep reminding you how 'talented' players are and they'll get back to their best.
So what I'm saying is our supporters have a loser's mentality as well and Dele persistence with us was emblematic of it. As was wanting to keep Kane over the longer term health of the club. As was pretty much every move we've made since summer 2018. But the toxic support of underperforming or shit players is the worst.
For me, I felt that Sheffield Unite away was a tough game. They have some Premier League players left, they were top ( or close to top ) it was a big game with national coverage.
Nothing I have seen in the past 5 years would tell me that Dier / Davies and Sanchez were the right picks when all things were considered, I don’t know why Conte / Stelini picked them three, especially when it was against Billy Sharpe. One of the many things that this club seems to confuse me with.

The manager says we don’t want to win anything didn’t he rest his best player v shef United ?
That’s bollocks from Roberts. The team that was picked was good enough to win that game.
I might buy into this way of thinking a bit more if it was an impassioned stand taken by a man wanting to stay and be that change, but it's not. (This is why I said to begin with; it's easy to throw a tantrum on your way out.... And it is!)
He's been saying since December and again a couple of weeks ago; "the club knows what I want and we will see in the summer about my future"....
What is that? .........Antonio?
We've heard every excuse under the sun before today, talk of patience and all sorts; every managerial cliche under the sun (good and bad), but what DO you want?
.........Tell US (the fans).
Perhaps the owners and the players don't care; but we fans do so why not reach out to us? (We've seen Rafa go to 'war' with owners several times; but he makes sure to communicate with the fans and rally's them to go to war with him.... Again; this is a million miles from that.)
Why not throw down the gauntlet in December (if the season and the progress of the club is your concern)?
They're certainly underperforming but look how many of our current and recent players have won league and cup trophies before, while or after Tottenham*. It's much more to do with the culture and limitations at Spurs with than their inherent attitude or laziness.
Bloody hell it's a long list, and this probably isn't exhaustive.
