I got a message not long after the game 'watch us crumble against Fulham'. Seriously, fuck Fulham, Roma, Ipswich and basically everything else that exists. If we can't settle back feeling golden with a big shit-eating grin on our face after that, what's the point of watching the game? It was fucking brilliant.
It was because he objected to being dragged to his feet by KdB and lashed out, it's an attempt to crack down on retaliation I think.Like Micky when he got assaulted by Kudos - awful refereeing all season.
Like I said I’ve not seen the game but if what you describe is how we played then that is all we want. Now we must maybe not play the same way , as city probably had more ball, but go out with same intensity and desire v Fulham. Otherwise this result would be meaningless in terms of points and signs of progress.City haven't just been beaten today they've been absolutely dismantled. We we're balanced we got the attacking and defending spot on. We dug in for a spell in that second half. That had everything in terms of an all round performance. If we do not kick on from that now then we never will.
I think the benching of Johnson to allow MADDs to play after what everyone has been saying was prbly his best call yet. V city where you know they will have plenty of the ball you need speed but most importantly players who will use the ball wisely and look after it making the correct passes. Today has showed from what I have read is players like turbo and Johnson should be starters but impact subs. Will they be able to produce v Fulham who may sit deep?Ange played a blinder, putting Biss and Pape in the midfield to help protect Ben and Drag at the back was right. Madds and Deki were amazing when set free
He’s not lost a game, he’s lost 5. What’ll take time? To be able to get a win at home against Ipswich?I’m not quick to turn on a manager if they lose a game. It’s clear it’ll take time, but results like today don’t happen without a manger like Ange.
One of the worst pundits. Have you seen him on the podcast with linekar and shearer. The only one who asks any insightful and intelligent questions is Gary.Is Micah on the sauce or something? He's moving his mouth around a shit ton like he's on something saucy![]()
I know, but it seems like we're the only ones that get punished for it.It was because he objected to being dragged to his feet by KdB and lashed out, it's an attempt to crack down on retaliation I think.
Was he on the laughing gasMicah Richards exhibiting that he doesn’t have a clue as to what he’s talking about
Our finishing? - you can thank Madders for that. He's one of those wonderful players who keeps his head when he's one-on-one with a marauding keeper bearing down on him. Quick-witted and calm when under pressure. Our other strikers could learn by watching his finishing skills.One of the most impressive aspects of our performance was our finishing. The first 3 were all controlled finishes, there was none of the usual heads down and thrashing at the ball.
im still baffled by this amazing performanceHe’s not lost a game, he’s lost 5. What’ll take time? To be able to get a win at home against Ipswich?
I took him out of my FPL team. Kept porro though
Of course it was a fantastic result yesterday and Spurs fans have every right to be in a celebratory mood, but - and I am not saying this to dampen - I do not let myself be carried away at all. And I certainly hope the player will NOT be carried away - as they have in the past of trashing teams in the EPL.
We all saw what happened after beating Man City and L-cup or trashing Wham & Villa.
Of course, this is totally hypothetical but I would gladly have swapped the win over Man CIty with 2 wins of Palace & Ipswich (games in which Spurs played so badly is beyond believe).
And another point, I boshed out plenty of likes and agrees to other posters positive posts - no point me duplicating what’s already been said about our great goals so kindly renege on your nonsensical shit sandwich above you paella eating cretinous bull killerWhy is it that you took no pleasure whatsoever from this game?
That you only posted twice after our first goal, both times to slag off Son Heung-min?
I'm genuinely curious.
You go to home games, right? I'm pretty sure you don't carry on there like you do here. So this is simply an amusing internet persona?
It's a very, very odd way for a Tottenham fan to act, as well as being a total waste of your and everyone's time
Amazing performance but are you positive we won’t lose to Fulham? It’s got Ipswich 2.0 written all over it…We got back the momentum we lost in Istanbul. We'll climb up the table for top 4, i hope.
I am a life long spurs fan and chuffed with the result but can’t understand the vile feelings against city.The best team in Europe for 4 years and yes they have oil money which we would grab if levy sold to them..
