yea spot on! fuck being mocked for losing a title race. id rather us entertain the neutrals while we let in 13 goals in 3 games at home. its much better being midtable.

Nah man it was beautiful. I mean not perfect and yeah the occasional stinker but the anticipation for games! Watching Dembele absolutely fucking boss it. Dele nutmegging fools, how many will Kane score this weak?! Toby & Vert will always be what I think of when I think CB partnership. Cool as ice.
We had some units in that team. Played footy but teams used to dread us. Jose said we were too nice but that was just cliche bullshit, we kicked the shit out of sides under Poch. Bullied them.
We lacked that final superstar touch, that prime Bale or Hazard.. and definitely lacked depth still, but that first 11 was as close as you get to having a really good footballer in every single position. Balance.
Seriously if Bale (or Modric) had emerged a few years later and we had him at his best in that team, we would be sat here now with Spurs having won multiple league titles, some domestic cups and a European cup. Football is cruel.
You are aware that night follows day aren’t you ?You are aware that more than one team can chase the same player at the same time aren’t you?!
I wish people wouldn't follow these people or for that matter repost from X. Especially to make a facile point. Evil must be opposed .
Iraola. He has coached in the Epl no business making Spurs a coaches first elite job. Levy's poorest decision .
There's no way that we could be 11th, having just conceded 13 in our last 3 home games and and it not feel shit and unforgiveable. But it might be slightly easier to swallow, if I felt like there was an assumption from all, that this cannot carry on and that one way or another something has to give.
But I'm seeing and hearing from not all, but some, a mindset of "we were always going to lose to Liverpool, don't worry about it, nothing to see here" and "good times are coming, keep doing what we're doing" and also the old favourite, "These so called fans and their lack of patience. Give Ange time."
Most importantly of all I see the manager himself saying, no matter what the results are and no matter any evidence, I will not change, ever, so do not question my methods because I won't respond to it.
Well, sorry pal, but we're 11th. Whatever, you think or the downtrodden, misery-wank fans like to say, this club should not be 11th nearly half way through the season. The alarm bells should be ringing, and there should be severe pressure on the manager, coaching staff and players for us to improve results consistently immediately, otherwise hard decisions will be made.
But. There's just an acceptance that we're in this cycle for the forseeable, because maybe, it'd get worse after making a change.
It just makes these frequent shit results all the more draining.

Facile point?
If you find yourself agreeing with Joey Barton then maybe you’ve been led down the garden part of hate?
I don’t follow him btw, it just showed up on my feed.
Yeah, I agree we played great stuff under Poch but don’t think it was ever quite so free flowing and exciting.
It’s reckless and unsustainable I know but when it goes right it’s just so enjoyable.
Son tracks back, as does Johnson, they are just pretty half arsed at actually engaging anyone. It's not an instruction that when we are in defensive transition that wide forwards can just just shrug and walk around. Especially when they are the ones that have pissed away the ball cheaply half the time.
Yeah, agree. Up until 2019, Poch made us hard to be beat and our press was mustard.
Yeah I do get your point regarding Carrick but I think he'll definitely be a solid premier league manager whenever he takes or gets that opportunity
Haha. Opposition fans definitely feared us it’s why they were so delighted we fucked it up. Because they genuinely thought we had a chance. Of course there is always pisstaking, it’s football tribalism. But it was a lot fucking better than what we have now. If they were laughing then, wtf do you think they are doing now? We are irrelevant. A joke. A pathetic excuse of team under Ange.

Sounds like he’s saying with so little personnel what do you expect? One players have started three games in 8 days whereas Pool were able to rest more players midweek.
We have one of the highest goal differentials in the league. So no, we don't concede more than we score most of the time. We score more than concede, most of the time. It's basic math.
I dislike Joey Barton but he's got one thing right , the overall standard in the PL is atrocious , I would have been embarrassed to have defended like some of these players , even on a Sunday .
