Media Media Bias

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Is it my imagination or is Eriksen getting stronger praise for a few games at Utd than he got after years of tearing it up with us?

Even with Brentford last season i heard the term 'world class'. Can't remember that when he played with little old us.
He got lots of praise with us. At one point he had more assists than any other player, and after Coutinho left, most goals outside the box. He was a huge part of what made us tick; it's just he went to shit as a) we did, which coincided with b) Dembele leaving and losing the CL final. Downed tools. And that's what most of us remember him for. Other than nearly dying of course.

Hasselbaink makes Spurs season prediction

Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink believes Tottenham won't finish in the top four of the Premier League this season, despite their unbeaten start to the campaign.

The Lilywhites finished fourth last season, but the former Chelsea striker believes they will miss out on Champions League football this time around. Perhaps surprisingly, the Burton Albion boss believes Manchester United will pip Spurs to a top four spot.

“I think Chelsea will get in the top four, with Man United, [Manchester] City and Liverpool," Hasselbaink said on Super Sunday.

Gary Neville replied: "Tottenham don't?"

"Tottenham don't," answered Hasselbaink.
 
Stunning and brave prediction that.

Imagine having to throw your credibility out the window in order to appeal to plastics. Have some respect.

:contefacepalm:
To be fair at least he appears to have some honour. He quit as Burton boss today with them rock bottom of the table. Didn't wait for the sack to collect his contract payout. Fair play. You don't see that very often at all.

But yeah, shit prediction when you think we've lost 2 of our last 20 league games.

Hasselbaink also said that Odegaard's blatant massive push on Erikson wasn't a foul. So fuck him, the cheating, diving cunt.

I don't forget you, Jimmy Floyd.

This is what BBC have to say when previewing our match tonight:

"Tottenham did not feature in last season's Champions League, instead putting in a pretty dismal showing in the Europa Conference League."


While I admit we weren't exactly good, funny how they don't even mention HOW we got removed from said tournament do they?
 
We must have the same friend.

Hasn't stopped moaning since we signed him and lapped up the media crying over him.
I don't see anything wrong with it. The players have a way of sorting it out on the field. Last year when he was doing that sort of thing with Everton I thought it was grandstanding, showboating, and a threat to civilization as we know it. Oddly enough, it doesn't seem so bad this year. :)

This aged well.
Not only have Chelsea proven bad and sacked their coach, but JFH himself has been sacked too
