Match Blood Money Cheats v Spurs - 23 Nov @ 17:30

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Fantastic result.

Kulu is becoming a bit special. Gives us so much creativity from wide. Has to start ahead of Johnson now. I like Timo and BJ off the bench against tired legs, there's always goals in that duo late on.

Defence were class, Shoutout to Vic, his best performance for us. Biss showed great discipline after that early yellow. Love watching Solanke lead the line.

Still think there is a mental fragility in the team which is why we lose to Palace and Ipswich. They are still too comfortable with defeats. Losing needs to become unthinkable. Today shows the levels they can hit when they are locked in.
The players almost looked a bit embarrassed when Johnson made it 4, like we were upsetting the footballing order.

I don't think there is yet the real belief that they are a top team, which Kulu alluded to in his comments about standards every day. That likely filters down from Levy and the general feel around the club that winning is not our single-minded ambition.

It does seem like Ange is trying to change that. Good luck to the man.

Fingers crossed we go on a run now. 10 points from the next 4 PL games and qualify for EL knockout stages.
 
Can we have some love for Don Pedro?

I thought he had a fine game and scored a lovely goal.

In fact, all our back four were admirable. People pissed their knickers at the prospect of Radu and Big Ben but they both had great games. U-Dog too. Even when we we under the cosh, as you might expect against the League champions at home, they defended really well. Pape and Biss too when it was needed Oh, and the likes of Madds and Sonny too getting stuck in.

Vale our heroic defence!

Davies and Radu were so good today, i never noticed them.

I never thought that City wouldn't force a mistake from them, but in truth they didn't.
 
Thought we could get something today, but to win by 4 goals, you're taking the piss.

That was excellent regardless of City's slump. Give us space to play and don't put 10 men behind the ball and we're a match for anyone.
Totally agree, but unfortunately if we give certain teams a goal start, then we struggle. Once we find a way to unlock these defenses, then we shouldn't be scared of anyone.

Kulu Man of the Match clearly!
 
Remarkable result. Thought we were going to lose before we scored. Even at 2-0 I thought they could come back into it. To score 4-0 away at the hardest place in the league is insane.
