Match Tottenham Hotspur vs Shakhtar Donetsk, Sunday 6th August, 14:00

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

2 brilliant saves from Vicario at the end!

If Shaktar were slaughtered 5-0 by some Greek farmers, this was probably not a good test!

But one thing is for sure, we will be extremely entertaining to watch this season!
Second half was brilliant, and Deki were magnificent.

But we MUST strenghten the defence with 2 CB´s! Otherwise this brand of attacking football will get wasted.
 
Kane leaving , we need a new striker , up steps Dane

That front 2 of Kane/Son/Kulu ain't the one if we want to press, the CB's are going to need to be on high alert due to the lack of press from the front.
 
He annoyed me conte. Blamed everyone but himself. The hypochondriac of football. Both jose and conte are dinosaurs. The game has moved on.
To me it wasn’t so much about old style of play that annoyed me most. It was the fact that I think they refuse to adapt to try and prove they are still relevant. They both suffer from the same egomania, which arguably could have made them successful to begin with, but has been their detriment since.
 
Solomon on for 10's, puts a stinger of shot, for Kane to finish mmmmm

What a lovely goal by Dane Scarlett, brilliant by Ange to put him on and give him a shout and it paid off. I don't think we need to buy another striker, I think we should put our faith in the youngsters. But that's just IMO.

Kulu, much better second half, should be concerned his starting place is up for grabs.

Game slowed down after the 3 goal, became a bit of stroll, but still played some good football still.

Defence is a little concerning still, but nowhere near the cluster-F is was last year.

Overall, a very entertaining afternoon of football. Bring on Barca.

Shakhtar is anything but shit. Unless you regard drawing with Real Madrid and beating Leipzig 4-1 in the CL as shit. You probably dont know shit.
*sigh* Did those accomplishments happen within the past week? Then this is a different outfit to those teams...unless historic accomplishment somehow influence present team performance. That would mean even history is against Spurs because we don't win shit anymore.


Hey Admin Admin , more evidence why new posters should serve probie period before posting in certain thread (or all).
