Match West Ham (A) - BYOB (Bring your own binoculars) - 13th Sep, 530KO

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Enjoyed sticking it to my Spammer mates after the game , we really didn’t need to be anything special today to beat them comfortably. Potter must be under pressure now which is a shame , would love to see him keep up the good work for longer.
 
We can always say this West Ham isn’t very good and so on but it’s a London derby at their place so always going to be more intense, then add two fucking terrible ref calls and it’s not an easy day at the office.

Can have no complaints with that. Xavi is a baller, there is a lot more to come from him so nice on the ball, Bergvall is going to be something though what a talent.

Very happy with that.
 
I said this a couple of weeks ago but I wonder when Udogie is back and if he gets back into form, Porro will drop out for Spence.

I just think it will gives us much better balance.

It all depends on Udogie's form I think.

Porro isn't offering enough in an attacking sense for me, and he's always been a bit ropey defensively.

Will be interesting to see what Frank decides.

I'd have loved to see Ange get the job at West Ham - they're a match made in heaven. But I suppose I'll just have to put up with him failing at Forest.
 
Tel (20)
Xavi (22)
Sarr (22)
Kudus( 25)
Bergvall (19)

Our starting "attacking" group.

A very young side to go and get a comprehensive win at that dump. Also their first game together in this setup.

Fair play.

Mental take.

Porro is one of our best passers. Probably top 3 alongside Romero and now Xavi.
When we have a CF who can win a header on the pitch (see: Richy, Muani,Solanke) he will notch the assists.

One of the most productive full backs in the league.
 
So you're not going to arrest him then? Just a caution this time?
I'll call people out for being needlessly negative during a positive. If that's deemed problematic then so be it. I personally want to roll with the good times though. Only one league game ago we were pretty woeful so it's good to see the plan come together. I'm not about to lump on a 20 something year old who was played out of position to give one of our starters a rest when we are still handily winning the match.

It isn't a mental take at all. He's a good crosser and passer but he isn't very productive at all. He needs to up it or I can see Spence taking RB and Udogie taking LB.

But it will depend on opposition and of course Porro will rotate, it's not like he won't ever play.
 
Sky trolling us again with the Alan Smith commentary!
...look at it another way, Alan Smith had to sit and watch SPURS play another team off the park... and had to try not to mention ArseAnal!
Pure hell for the beak nosed brummie Gooner!

Wow... just look at 'old man's Kudus!!

3 out of the 4 bottom teams have one thing in common they are shit , the claret and blue kit is a happy coincidence
...and to think, pre-season, the biggest concern many West Ham fans had was that they'd 'done away' with the blue sleeves on the claret shirts!

Sentimental old fools!
