Exactly - he's taken 8pts from 8 games. Shame after nearly 50 games we couldn't have been good enough to end the season with a strong run. 16pts from 24 would mean going into the last day with a shout of 4th.
Impossible dream? Unrealistic? Does everybody really think it would've taken £50m in January to do it? Or, if we had a really good coach/manager and had maybe even invested in 1 decent player in September or January that it couldn't have happened?!?
Perhaps just a defence not as shit as ours (shitter than all but a couple of relegated/relegation teams by the way) might have been enough.
We need to challenge these things, as should the club from top to bottom.
Why make spurious suggestions about who I support?
It's not just the league table position. They were getting out-shot badly in volume and quantity. And were getting worse as time went on. Adkins wasn't fixing their issues. Pochettino came in and did fix them. And fixed them enough that SAF called Soton under him the best team Man Utd faced all year.
More of the same eh Sammy? Keep them coming. Just makes you look like an argumentative saddo- when you've run out of anything to say, start throwing childish comments out. It's you that's the shambles. Quite obviously.Yeah I really thought you was an Espanyol fan....go cry me a river.
You must be such easy pickings in court. Shambles, the oppo must love it when you walk in.
Redknapp and Ramos too. Kaboul always was the same error prone defender. Adebayor has always been Adebayor. Modric was never going to be adequately replaced (he's too good to simply swap). Dembele can't play at the tempo a CM needs to. Chriches can't play without screwing up.AVB, Poch and Tim.
maybe none are good enough? We will see
What some also seem to conveniently dismiss when we had those 2 top 4 finishes is that Man City were not yet securely financially doped - and we still scraped it
Isn't rubbish. Their shooting was crap. So was their defending. Soton pulled the trigger and Pochettino got the numbers to improve and arguably saved the year. Les Reed knows what he's doing. He then replaced Pochettino with a guy who can do the same thing (and they've finished in roughly the same place).Thats rubbish, they had a dodgy start to the season lost 8 of their first 10 games, then turned the corner, losing just 3 (LFC, MUFC, SAFC) of the next 16 games. Hence why there was such suprise at Adkins sacking at the time.

They're not making decisions based on league tables at Soton, and are embarassing everyone else because of it.
Don't insult me now mate. Your quite adept at twisting remarks & putting your own spin on them. You have now used my 'Man City were not entrenched' and 'Chavs played to get AVB sacked' to accuse me of being a collaborator with the enemy?Thats what gooners say about us too....I tell them to fuck off we deserved it.
What do you say when gooners belittle us? Pat them on the back and agree.....
Nice one
Isn't:
Your just being silly now?!Don't insult me now mate. Your quite adept at twisting remarks & putting your own spin on them. You have now used my 'Man City were not entrenched' and 'Chavs played to get AVB sacked' to accuse me of being a collaborator with the enemy?
Ever thought of writing for the Sun,
Fuck me you have too much time on your hands.
Calm down, chill out. You are wasting valuable energy with this negative, pedantic, nit picking. Have you not got anything else to do?
That's what happens in the league. Sometimes one team does better because the other team doesn't. There are always reasons.
However, in todays game it's becoming slightly more predictable & boring. Who knows FFP may have an impact.
Who knows MP may win the league next year, Kane may prove those who thought he was shit correct by doing fuck all next season and Lamela bang in 30 goals and Paulinho win player of the year.
Nobody really knows. That's why hindsight is a wonderful thing.

Stop being a knob. I thought you were a decent poster rather than trying to be a face. You contradict your own posts over every thread. It's quite odd. Sammy... What do you want other than to upset everyone on this forum? If I had enough time in my life I could pull you up on each & every contradictory post you make. You like to think you are clever. The truth is you recycle old arguments to suit your current gripe. Everyone on this forum sees what a cunt you are. Go play with your Swedish ladies
Sammy. Nobody likes you on here. You are an argumentative little shit. Even people who used to like you realise what a fucking cunt you really are. Why don't you take your gifs of disabled children & slutty attempts to win the Internet somewhere else?
From the man who got sin binned for being an argumentative cunt with little to offer.
You're consistently showing yourself to be an argumentative cunt with little to offer to the forum. Now behave
Come on sammy. Got anything more hideous to post just to prove how hard you are? Any other minority or disadvantaged person you want to poke fun at whilst living it up in Sweden from behind a keyboard? I used to respect you. But you are a complete cunt aren't you ?
He's a cunt. Thinks he rules the TFC world with dodgy legal pedantics. If half the shit he puts on here is half true, then he is one helluva high flyer. If he is, then how the fuck can he post over 10,000 times & hold a job down, & sleep, & have a normal life?. I somehow think that he talks a load of shit & because it's in flowery language, it means he wins. Let's see the substance
Petty personal dig? Fuck off. I have supported you guys in the teeth of some opposition. My dig at you isn't personal. I just happen to think you are a cunt who soils the reputation of some very intelligent Americans who post on here.
You are a gooner you cunt. You do nothing but poke at anything positive as far as Spurs are concerned. Crawl back under your stone you bell end.
Disagree all you want. You've been repeatedly found out as a fool by various posters on here. You sprouted a pair of testicles when you got Sammy on board-only a day earlier you were whining about leaving the forum because of being bullied. You argue shit points to the point of boredom. Gibbsy- you are well & truly outed.
Redknapp and Ramos too.
What makes a troll...someone with a strong opinon on Spurs?
Or someone going around the thread saying troll and cunt in every post, and not talking about Spurs
I prefer Arce to you lately, and I can't stand him.
You use to be opinionated, but post some smart sensible stuff. You at least tended to stick with your opinions and admit when you were wrong. Now it's the same shit, every day, on every thread, for months while fence sitting. Take a break, it'd be good for you.
I admire your optimism,, there have been enough signs for me that with some tweaking, we could be on the verge of something special.
