Match Fulham (H) - 29/11 - 8pm

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

We have tried every combinantion possible with the players available in midfield.

And the only time it has looked solid was the first 4-5 games. When we played Palhinha-Bentancur-Sarr.

One can think whatever they want about them individually, but it looked solid.
Yeah, it's relative.

Why Bents -- as shit as he was today -- hasn't been THE problem and has been unfairly used as the whipping boy.

For a squad in the CL, our mf is mid af.
 
Just be glad you want to give st least a season to sort it all out then!

I would recommend you strap yourself in for that particular ride.

Might as well see how bad it can really get. This could just be the start!
Yeah it feels mental to keep this going but is there a quick fix? Either way I can't see him surviving this week if we lose to Newcastle and Brentford. I think losing at home to his former club would the be the end. The embarrassment from that would b too much for anyone to handle. The club would act then

The truth is that we have very few players of class that other teams would want to buy.
VANdeVEN, Bergvall, and Kolo Muani. ??
If we don't buy class we will be mediocre.
Eze and MGW would have been good but we ended up with Simons. We were warned that he wouldn't cope with the physical nature of the premiership, hence Chelski backed out.
 
For those complaining about the booing, I don’t condone it and I would never do it but give our stadium supporters a bit of leeway; I wasn’t at the game tonight but I know how difficult it is to get to WHL and at the price paid and on a cold winters night and as they all plod home in the cold and dark, I’m willing to cut them some slack.


Edit: mind you, it’s a bit daft booing your own player while the match is still in progress and it can still be won!

Sigh. It’s such a painful watch in the ground (though hate the booing). Said the first was slapstick comedy and the second was even more ridiculous. Couldn’t really see any redeeming features.

Nah. It’s dreadful (was there and just home) but the booing just makes it worse. I hate it.

There is always a chance of a quick fix in football.

He’s toast. It’s just a matter of time now. Newcastle is almost a guaranteed nil points.

After that there are too many stories in the premier league.

Brentford at home. His Old club. Now above us.
Forest away. Scene of Angeball death.
Liverpool home. Slot in a negative spiral.

Pick your favourite storyline!

And I really didn’t think we would lose tonight. Didn’t see that storyline coming!
