Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

I've seen a few dodgy squads at the club over the years but I'm really struggling to think of a more insipid, average, unentertaining group of players. Absolute meh.
 
Shit fucking crowd. Look at the stark contrast between us and fucking Sunderland. Both went 2-0 down, yet only one had the desire and the crowd to turn things around.
One is a mid sized club finally back in the good company after years of suffering in oblivion. The other is one of Europe’s biggest clubs financally which is expected to be in the top 6 year after year. There is a difference.
 
Usually when teams play badly you hear phrases like — lack of energy, or no tempo or formation not right etc etc. But we can’t even get the basics right like controlling a ball, making more than two passes without getting into trouble, or taking some responsibility and showing some fight, not showing cowardice.

Some real fundamentals to be sorted out here.
 
When we were 4-1 down last week and Porro started kicking off at someone, there was a lot of bullshit like "at least someones finally showing some fight".. That's not fight.

Fight is willingess to get on the ball and play with some character and personality when the situation's tough.
 
I'm on repeat nowadays with what i'm about to say!

It's not the manager! It can't be manager after manager after manager after manager!

We have a shit squad, and has had for years. The ones holding it together these past seasons were Harry and Sonny. Now that they're gone we fall apart.

Our defence has been a shambles the last 3-4 managers, do we really think that it's all down to those managers?

Look at Porro, Spence, Udogie, Romero, they all know jack shit about defending. And if you have a team that can't defend, you won't go anywhere in the best league in the world.

85% of the posters on here keeps talking about what attacking players we need to sign to take the next step.

What good will attacking signings do, when we can't defend?

We need 4 new signings desperately, and it's not attackers.

We need a goalkeeper, a right back, a left back , and a central defender. And we need leaders, now we have a bunch of boys and a bunch of headless chickens.

This is not about Frank! It's about our recruitment team, our board, the man at the top, and our owners!

So booing the players and the manager is just conraproductive.
i think it's about frank too
 
Fuck this.... At least after the game I've got chinese takeaway and one of these:
