Just reacting to the chump who says no-one was ill before going to Barcelona training camp, when two players known to have been ill. Who caught what off of whom and when is anybody's guess.
I know mate I'm on your side don't worry

I didn't say they're on the cusp of something magnificent, merely that they're better than their position suggests.
You think they're going to be there at the end of the season?
West Ham were right in the shit not long ago, and Palace, and Southampton's squad is far, far better than both of theirs. They've probably got the strongest squad in the bottom half.
Flat, need pumping up. Simple
No win in 11 but if you looked a bit deeper at those results you would see they recently got a point at Old Trafford were unlucky not to come away with something at the bridge and were close to beating Woolwich but for a last min goal.No win in eleven would suggest that they are fucked. But why let PL facts get in the way of a good argument. Just because they drew with us does not make them certainties to survive.
West Brom drew with us in November and with a manager change they are a point off Saints, hardly an endorsement now is it?
United were quite lucky to get the win at Turf Moor, but yeah, we need good results against Man. Utd, Liverpool and Woolwich in the upcoming weeks.Need to kill it during this upcoming rough stretch to stake our claim in the top 4 after everyone won with ease this weekend.
"Its there in print"Players had a virus before they flew, this is fact and reported, this means it was in our camp at Hotspur Way. Kane was ill again in Barcelona as reported, fact. Players Eriksen and Lloris now have a virus, fact. Now other players not named are also reported to have a virus, led to believe some played with it today, fact.
I have NEVER said Lloris or Eriksen caught this virus before they travelled, suggest you find where I said this. The only names I mentioned about prior to the trip have been Kane and Winks, it's there in print, no-one else.
And yet more insults.
Not a good performance (obv). Heavy touches and selfishness (not releasing early enough and then getting tackled) from seemingly everyone. You'd think after that Swansea match, we'd deal with the conditions better. Poch had a bad game as well. Lamela for Eriksen seemed obvious, not sure why he messed around with Sissoko instead. Waited way too long for subs. Need to kill it during this upcoming rough stretch to stake our claim in the top 4 after everyone won with ease this weekend.
The "no name jabroni" bloke on Twitter is a reporter who's only job is to report on Spurs, he does nothing else (works for no other publication that I'm aware of other than Football.London), he ONLY writes and covers Spurs. It's not even an opinion that can or can't be agreed/argued with, he's reporting it as a state of fact. Either a player is ill or his not, he's reported that 'X' was ill. Why on earth would he lie about this, what purpose does it serve? Something that you from the position of your bedroom, with all your Spurs insider contacts refute, disagree with and say never happened and is "absolute bollocks"."Its there in print"
Some no name jabroni on Twitter said it ...ohhh it must be true.
Btw do you play the victim in real life as well? Calling someone a "plum" and a "chump" is a personal insult in case you didn't know. Just because its not as severe as my insults towards you, doesnt mean its not a personal insult. The difference between me and you is I openly admit I do it...You on the other hand instigate it and then moan and cry when someone retaliates ( I can quote other posts to prove my point if you like). It's actually quite sad.
I can tell you're the sort of person that watches his mate have a fight, then sneak punches the other guy when he's already on the floor and proceeds to run away. The next day bragging about how you knocked that person out.The "no name jabroni" bloke on Twitter is a reporter who's only job is to report on Spurs, he does nothing else (works for no other publication that I'm aware of other than Football.London), he ONLY writes and covers Spurs.

So it seems you have nothing left (never had anything to begin with let's be frank) other than to dispute the credentials of a specialist, professional journalist reporting on factual information. What are your credentials BTW, that give you credence to your claims and counter claims are correct and his are not to be believed?
Post after post digging your ever increasing sized hole. You've been owed and found out yet again. So fucking boring though, all this shite, all this vitriol and abuse over disputing a fucking virus. When you've learnt something you didn't know, it's usually rewarding and usually customary to thank the person that you have leaned something from, It's totally bizarre to launch into a tirade of personal abuse towards the individual, unless you have opted to take the position as a know it all who knows fuck all.
Don't ever change though mate, it might be easy but great to watch you unravel like a ball of string.
Odd conclusion to draw from our recent dialog, considering it's been just me and you. No sign of me watching anyone, no involvement of another person. You are the guy on the floor right now.I can tell you're the sort of person that watches his mate have a fight, then sneak punches the other guy when he's already on the floor and proceeds to run away.

Not gonna read through all this thread - I imagine it's a melt-fest - so apologies if these points have been made.
* Thought Davies/Vert were our best players yesterday.
* Thought the ref was incredibly lenient to both sides which meant the match degenerated into a stop/start snooze fest towards the end.
* I've seen comments on this forum about Poch making subs too late at times. It struck me yesterday that this could be helped by players not taking ages getting ready to be subbed on! I swear Lamela had about 15 layers on that he needed to strip off before putting his shirt on. I don't consider myself old (37) but what happened to the days of players ready to go when sat on the bench??
* Still confident we'll get top 4 but do think we need at least two wins from the next 3 to make it easier (stating the obvious I know) - prob against Woolwich and the Dippers.
We never win at Anfield! I recall one win in the 15 odd years? 2011. I’d take a draw now in that one. We should be aiming to win the games at Wembley
All the more reason to stuff them there this year! Imagine the lift a win there will give our season - not to mention half the people on here. Doesn't mean we can't win the Wembley games too - no-one will be complaining if we take 9 points from the next three league games
