No fucking around, no dicking about, no wanging away - just high tempo from the start and put these sky blue cunts to bed early

Should see us dumped out so we can focus on finishing top half PL
 
If you’re Coventry you have to be licking your chops at the prospect of playing Spurs. Absolutely zero game planning required, sit back, play a low block, let Spurs “dominate possession”, hit us on the counter or earn a corner and then hit us there.
 
I'd play the entire second string except where the first team need minutes. The competition has no cachet. We've won it twice since the PL started (which is when all the kids these days start counting trophies) and no cares.

Speak for yourself. I care. I want trophies. Who the fuck are we to look down on Trophies -ANY trophies - after the last 30 years?

The point of winning is to gain respect. Who the fuck respected us in '99 and '08? Or our Audi cups?

I could win a sprint with a bunch of 5 year olds, but no one would respect me either.

The whole thing is just a money-spinning exercise.
 
Focus on a competition that teams actuall take seriously. Like the FA cup. Or even the Europa League somewhat has respect these days.
But there's no reason not to focus on all three of those.

OK winning the League Cup doesn't have a lot of prestige and I'd rather the FA Cup or EL. But seriously, I'd love to win it regardless. I want Tottenham to win trophies. Being in the top six in the league and winning zero trophies has a lot less prestige connected to it.

Swap out Forster and Davies for Vic and VDV and that's a good side.
