Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Well im glad we’re agreed on that
I’m unsure when scoring the winning goal for the match is anything other than at least good but it’s good to have clarification
Spurs should finish top 4 with no injuries, as those other sides have European football to play. Brighton are the dark horses, they keep selling their best players and then find another good one to put in. If we can add some good back up players next transfer window, we should be OK.They will be saying it’s rigged because of the 12 mins..
So Newcastle & United look fairly average. Woolwich & city I think are dead certs for top 5 . & I think liverpools very good attackers will get them top 5 & cover for some of their frailties.
So there is a real chance this season for us to get top 5. Injury to a CB & us also being a bit lightweight in attack (no Kane replacement) is the biggest worry. Then it’s also hard to predict because maybe a Brighton will sneak up there too.
He’s won us the game with his attitude there
It feels a bit queer but also wonderfully satisfying to see spurs buying good football team players
We had a 5 year period of making this seem almost chimerical
Late to the conversation here… my son had a match today so we were listening on the radio in the parking lot before the game. Went absolutely crazy when Kulu scored - people thought we were insane
Spoke to quite a few Bhoys this summer over here, both Glasgow and Derry based; got questioned as to how I thought Ange would do.Seriously lads, Ange is right up there with Pep and Klopp
If he gets the financial backing the sky is the limit for you. Like I say, he very rarely makes a bad signing
You must be delighted you never got Slott. I'm gutted yous didn't
Said , firstly, didn't want him to leave Celtic, but would be hard to judge him as he'll be up against our ownership business model but more so against oil and oligarch clubs.
But one thing's for sure, 'we'll never stop' so it'll be a relief for our fans and a return to proper Tottenham, whatever happens.
Nothing you don’t expect from Arcy ‘cloaca’ Johnson
Yep.
We learn alot more from the team in games like this instead of just winning 5-0 at home against them.
For a young team to show the character is not just a testament to them but the coaching staff. Helps that the home fans were backing them all the way.
Look at the staff going apeshit in this clip. I wish it showed the two seconds preceding it when you can see them get to their feet as Richy passes off to Kulu. Everyone is invested.

There's a real wave right now. And it's great to be on it.
It’s very exciting, and if you follow Ange, it’s the drug that he’s always dealt.
This is the damn mentality we lack for years, even pochettino can't provide us for that, teams basically revolve around bisoumma, sheer ball management, don't see us losing ball and the urgency to win it back real fast without caring about positon is all about genpressing.
Soloman deserves some praise but someone needs to let him know he doesn't need to rush for a goal.. I felt we were intense with him on when perisic came on we lost some of that, he was guilty for wasting some turnover.
We should have wrapped the game but as usual we were always going to concede to shit teams like Burnley and sheff United given their 1 shot 1 goal luck

Sky sports are so upset we won that it still says we’re 1-0 down
Was working so kept an eye on the score on my phone. Got into the car and put on the radio and they said Spurs just got a winner. Checked my phone again and this was showing. Was a bitter Gooner in charge of updating the Spurs game?
What was going on with BBC especially today? despite having all games on firestick, been advised to reduce stress for health reasons, which means rarely watching us and shouting at tv for 100 mins.
So, came back from dog walk, got BBC text, saw us 1 nil down at 90 plus 7 (swore about how over confident everyone was) refreshed a few times, over several minutes, still said 90 plus 7, losing.
Tried one last time, 2 - 1 up etc.
Open mouthed.
Remembered ' we don't stop' Ange mantra from Celtic. Still shocked though.
But also remembered the joy of BBC text refresh.
Year and half ago, was over the border in the Irish Republic, Leicester away. Clicked on 90 plus 5, (knew it was 1 all half time but we were battering them)
Said 'fuck' as score came up in a flash at 2-1 Leicester.
In Ireland, BBC works out you're in a different country, refreshes in a millisecond, and it comes up 3-2 to us, 90 plus 7.
Spurs fan in me forced me to walk out the room thinking we'd still blow it.
Something different about this team though.

Yeah, it's great. This was an important test, and we passed. When teams realize we are not merely fluid and entertaining but also capable of overcoming bullshit like this, they'll come to the stadium half-beaten.
Reckon the likes of Sean Dyche won't be licking their lips at the prospect of shithousing a point off us.
I remember an Ange game from a couple seasons ago when we scored so late to win that the BBC had already uploaded their article about Celtic dropping points.
That ended up being a quick retraction
