I never felt uncomfortable during that today and I don’t know why. For the first time this season it looked like we were in control without the ball. We needed that big time.That was bloody intense and a little bit uncomfortable, and not at all what I expected. So absolutely credit to the players and set up today. If it’s their fault we lose, the. It’s their credit when they win
That 30 crosses into the box on 70 minutes stat is insane. Davies and Spence, and indeed Gray and Porro actually looked like a unit.
On to Man U. Need to win that too. Today massive bonus 3 points.

Speculation. As I said, have a watch of the video.
I was uneasy at the beginning of the game, but we took more control of it as the minutes passed. In the end the opponent had nothing to show for. Massive game for us, especially the defence
Or have the players understood the playing philosophy finally?Not being part of the dressing room and coaching team we will never know. It's purely speculation. There's a good interview with a former head of sport science for both us (under numerous managers) and then Ange at Celtic. Guys name is Anton McElhone. Worth a watch and dispels a lot of misconceptions.
In all honesty it doesn't.
When you piece it all together it just amounts to the notion that Ange needs the best squad in the league.
......it's not like today was a prime example of Ange-ball clicking.
Sky were a disgrace today. Commentators crying out for a Brentford goal. Studio openly taking the piss
Cunts.
if anyone wondered what mason ball would look like, it was what we saw today. just play ordinary vanilla football and let our quality outlast the lesser clubs. should've done this shit months ago
Wow BM that misrepresentation I would have thought was beneath you...I'm beginning to see that it is not. When we've played Ange-ball we've been 16th...now he's gone against ALL and EVERYTHING he purported to be in order to scrape 3 points...credit to him, needs must and all.
But don't try and distill some virtuous nonsense from this...he was hired to bring attacking football here and he has failed miserably. Today we parked the bus in order to survive...awesome for today...let's not make it a habit...unless things get tight again...or unless he's miraculously lasts past this season.
There are two sides to the game and having the ability to do only 1 at a time is a sign of incompetence.
I would say you have a blinkered perspective...and though yours was meant as a sarcastic slight, it doesn't take any tactical perspective to realize we parked the bus and went against everything that Ange-ball is supposed to be. Thank god because that shit is shit and left us 16th...remember?
It was 2001... I was there... had a sneaky fiver on Doherty to score first at 33s because bookies thought he would play at the back and we played him up front.
WHAT?
I've supported Spurs for 58 years, thick and thin - silverware and relegation.
I'm no global standard manager, but I've seen enough football played by this club to recognise the good managers from the bad -
where we are is circumstances - not managers
That’s what you get when you have an owner who doesn’t care if you’re a laughing stock. Until we get the sort of leader at the top who wants to stick it down all their throats nothing will change.
Pundits don't know what they're talking about - shocker!
So happy we made them look like fools but we've known they're hardly impartial...especially on Sky.
Not worth letting it spoil a great result.

That's nothing new. They've been talking down to us since 1992.
Had spurs in not one of my bet legs. Of course they won. Every time this year they've fucking cost me, and as soon as I'm out they drag me back in again.
Banned them for the fucking rest of the seasons.
The fans, club, and Ange should be soon celebrating the cup treble and an amazing league run.
With my money out of the picture there's nothing fucking surer!

Also lauded as a Woolwich legend but they conveniently forget he binned them off to play for Barcelona.
