I still think we can push for 4th when we get important players back.
Nuno is a 7th place manager at best. He managed to get a tune out of his Wolves players for a couple of seasons. If he can’t get a tune out of this lot, 9-12th place. He’s out of his depth. And the squad really don’t look that bothered. Aside from the City game and the first half today, our points tally actually flatters us.
We finished 3 points ahead of Everton with a Harry Kane who was top scorer and top assister, with a disinterested Kane we're just straight up a worse side than they are.We're somewhere on a par with the likes of Everton unless Kane suddenly comes good again and plays how he can do, which is very unlikely to happen.

Sad but probably true. I still think technically we have better players than they do on paper, but that doesn't mean a lot. I said when we beat City that Espirito Santo will have performed miracles if he gets this club in the top 6 when others were suddenly talking about Champions League football next season, but after what I've seen so far (despite the wins) I think we'll do well to finish 8th or 9th this season.
True. Jason dozzell would slot nicely in the current teams midfield & not look out of place.Maybe I'm over reacting but the surrenders against Palace and Chelsea today remind me of 93/94.
No team has the luxury of fielding their first 11 for the duration of the season, though.Our first 11 on form with a proper manager is a top 6 side.
You're not over reacting at all. This is 90's Tottenham. Without the trophiesMaybe I'm over reacting but the surrenders against Palace and Chelsea today remind me of 93/94.
I think the signs are ominous. We scraped 7th last year with kane performing. Carry on like this with kane clearly disinterested and not wanting to be here and it's not looking good as it's only him or son that get us results.Mate we just lost to an oil-money fuelled Chelsea who are arguably the league's best and Europe's best team right now, and all of a sudden we're barely a top 10 team? Fuck me the reactionary posting on here is embarrassing.
Have a couple pints lads and try not to crumble, christ.
Our first 11 are never on form, & we got a primark manager!Our first 11 on form with a proper manager is a top 6 side.
Precisely.Our first 11 are never on form, & we got a primark manager!
I wanted him and so did plenty of othersWhere were all the calls for hiring Potter? I can't remember a single person mentioning his name on here
