Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

23 goals and 16 assists between them in 17 games.
Not bad for seeing very little of the ball.
Sonny had an off night against Fulham if not the goals total would have been 25 or 26.
I agree stats look good but take out soton and manure numbers are different and most of the goals have been on the counter. Ericksen likes to have the ball around the oppo pen area probing. That’s all I’m saying.

Instead of removing the United and Southampton results, can we take away the Liverpool and Everton ones instead? Do we get to pick them ourselves, or is it like an online vote or something?
 
I have always been a Cunt.
But I know football and know a winner when I see one.
Jose will win us something in the next couple of seasons and I hope that it will stick in your throat while the rest of us celebrate.
That something will highly likely be the league cup.
Let’s not forget that Juande Ramos won the league cup.
I’m not so sure that winning it is proving he’s a winner.

in my eyes we need either the FA cup, Europa or league title.

Either way, I suppose that’s for the Jose thread.

The reason our negative play is simple.
The only class centre half we have is Toby who is on the decline.
PEH rarely get forward because his main duty is too protect the back 4.
Ndombele and Lo Celso still can't be relied upon to be trusted 100%.
Winks is a squad player at best, Bale 50% the player we expected Moura poor and Bergjwin can't put a run of games together.

Europa we are still in.
Fa cup the same I don't think the league is achievable due to the spending power of City Utd and Liverpool.
If the fixture list becomes impossible because of games being called off I think he will go all out for the Europa to gain entry into the Champions league just like he did at Utd.
I would certainly rest players in League games in order to win the Europa.
 
He could finish some games like yesterday , José could use PEH, tanguy and Dele vs the bottom .
Yes fully agree had Bergjwin been fit on Wednesday night I think he would have played probably at the expense of either Winks or Sissoko.
Moura has been very poor this season and Bale just back from injury.
Dele does not seem to have listened to what Jose said in the Amazon programme regards being lazy in training and matches.
If that is the case he should be sold and not loaned and the money spent on a replacement the manager will play.
 
If Eriksen wants to come back then bring him back. In this market we won’t find a more affordable player who can give us what we need.

As to who he would replace in the squad, that’s tough. Maybe we can send Davinson somewhere and put our trust in Rodon and Tanganga.
 
We sure do complicate stuff, play rondon and tanganga at the back move dier back in to midfield, have toby as a back up. This gives us a bit of pace and steel at the back. dier in midfield till summer or until we get a deep lying playmaker, ala 'sanson'.

Get rid of winks, lamela, moura, keep sissoko short term, dele is no longer required, whether in a 4231 or 433 as the third midfielder, both ndombele and le celso can do that job, in a jose team, they would probably be 'lampard' of yester year, even stevie wonder.
