Thats always the defence of the moaning and carping brigade, isn't it? If you ain't joining in, you're a happy clapper!

A happy clapper as far as you're concerned being anyone who doesn't contribute a running commentary of complaints, bitching, slating performances, commitment and management and any and of all things Tottenham.

Does it occur to you, that we can see the mistakes, underperformers and faults - but we just choose to look forward to the good things, and actually feel good about the things we get right?

No we're not at the match - but the people that do attend are hardly shining beacons of passionate support are they?

I can take away from the game that as a team without it's best defenders, in possibly one of the most hostile stadiums in Britain, came away with a reasonable result and effectively outplayed the home team and our subs were
  • B. Austin ,
  • L. Bergvall
    yellowcard.e8c48c5fe509a5456ea5.svg
    72'
  • A. Dorrington
  • M. Hardy
  • D. Kulusevski
  • W. Lankshear
  • C. Olusesi
  • P. Sarr
  • D. Solanke
  • A. Whiteman
  • L. Williams-Barnett
Gray, Bentancur, Maddison, Kulusevski and Forster all played a notable part in our result - which for me is bonus
You however are probably boiling your piss - because we didn't lose, to (presumably) prove you right.
Mick, how did we "outplay" them exactly? The stats don't even show that...lol. Unless you mean possession?
 
The worry wasn't Forsters shot stopping it was our ability to play out from the back with skill and confidence - the backbone of the system.

In the event it's become a moot point because Romero and VDV have played a combined 80 minutes since then.

I don't think anyone e doh ted his ability to stop shots and, yes, he's probably better at set pieces.
That may well have been your take... But the consensus Att was that he wasn't up to task putting it politely....which he clearly was and always has been.
 
I’m old enough to remember kerslake and Austin being our right backs . I don’t think either was as bad as porro.
He cannot tackle or pass. At least ten goals this season are down to him not tracking the scorer as a cross comes in from our left.
Dogshite.
If Spurs were a serious club, he'd be a backup RB playing garbage mins in the PL and getting the odd start in cup comps.

Udogie wouldn’t be at the club. Neither would Werner, Dragusin, Johnson, Bissouma...even Maddison and Romero.

Solanke (I like Big Dom) & Sonny wouldn't start.

But Levy.
 
This is why the whole thing from Romero of

Oh we love the manager, We're so happy.

Is worthless. I don't care how jolly it is on the training pitch. If the players are really invested in the direction of the team, then show it in games. But this is the 4th game on the bounce that the team comes out of the dressing room without the right level of intensity (the second half on sunday more specifially than the first)
 
Because I’m Spurs and hoping that we have a decent manager for this game

Surprised at that from you but you just carry on Happy Clapping!

It will be all right mate!

It’s who we are!

Embarrassing performance tonight

Team selection
Subs
Tactics

Very lucky to get a point!
To be proper Spurs you have to want the manager sacked?

Righto then old boy. My mistake.

I'm a Spurs fan, I'm just sick of Spurs in the Premier League. I am actually enjoying watching football in the Europa. Teams I don't know, crazy atmospheres and we get to see more of players like Bergvall and Gray.

The PL I'm just waiting for the next Spurs drama where we either get fucked over or fuck ourselves over. Just don't need it.
