Not true. Yes the best chain of finishes in the league, but the best football...NO. Not even close. For example 94-95 we finished 7th. But no way we're we better last year than we were that year !

Meritocracy? Lamela, Walker and Vertonghen in the starting XI on merit? Someone needs to buy the coach a dictionary. And some players.

Sorry bro busy nightWhat's happened? I've been unable to get on this site for well over an hour since the end of the game, I just assumed the server, like many of the participants, had gone into meltdown.
Very nicely and politely wrote Joe Clash. Are you on new medication? It seems to be working my friend. Keep it up!
No, I'm not, but it is. Cheers.
I would tend to agree with this. If Vertonghen isn't on form he often does more harm than good out there. He could have very easily given away a penalty in the first half, and playing a left footer onto his left foot for the goal is just sloppiness.
Levy gives a shit, and he's the only one that matters
If that is the Klinsmann-Sheringham year then I can't really argue, that was fun.
It's embarassing to think that our 5th/4th choice cb is starting at cm
He's put a respectable shift in there, unlike some of his teammates.
But you're right, this is just a piecemeal developmental-type squad.
It's not sustainable. There was a couple of times today, where he was put under pressure by Vardy. He lost the ball everytime.
As long as we're melting, how freaking dreadful has Ben Davies been? Is Danny Rose still alive?
Well that starting 11 today was the shittest Spurs side put out in the league for over a decade. Fucking shameful
One positive is to take... Dele Alli. Made some great runs in the final minutes and scored the goal. So gutted is has to start like this for him.
I'd really like to see something different now... Change the defense on the left with Wimmer and Rose and get N'Jie and Pritchard included in the squad.

Growing is long term. Success will be hard to come by in the short term if that's our team.
We need to build the team around Lamela. Until Poch sees this we are truly fucked. Where would you put him in that formation?
And that's why we disappoint year after year.
On a plane to Italy. Failing that, on a plane to anywhere else.
Talk about going from heaven to hell in 2min.. In one perfect moment young Alli looks like hes going to be the match winner and I'm jumping up and down, and in the next my wife is angry at me for shhh-ing 
her because she complained about my swearing and I'm close to smashing my computer.. I even had to apologize to her 
Though one thing is sure, I love this bunch of players and I don't think there's one player in the squad I don't want to see wearing the Spurs shirt! We're not playing beautiful football(sometimes we do) but I really like this hardworking team. COYS
PS. So glad to see Caroll and Alli coming on instead of Paulinho and Soldado.
