If we played the real West Ham then we beat them comfortably too. But we have to play a West Ham on crack because their whole season revolves around our game.
Unfortunately the real West Ham have been missing since about 1895, the joy of supporting West Ham is not knowing what side will turn up.
However if you are seriously claiming that Argentinian Manuel Lanzini and Croatian Slaven Bilic masterminded your demise, simply because they hate Spurs, I feel you are rather wide of the mark.
Unfortunately like your European games at Wembley, a bigger pitch proved to be your undoing, which was very odd to see, as the soulless bowl has been our undoing on many occasions this season (Southampton early on if you want to watch a team make full use of a big pitch).
Winston Reid was designated to man mark Kane, and with Kane having to go deeper and deeper, he ended up as a holding midfielder, which allowed our full backs to push up, which in turn stopped any advance of Davies or Walker (god he was poor).
We had a striker up front who has scored one goal this season, and that took a deflection as big as Kane's chin. We just worked a lot harder than Spurs, I have had a read through of this thread, and despite having to stop myself short of pissing myself with laughter, as the first half went on, lot's of you said we would run out of steam, and we usually do. However Spurs just looked that bit more done in, maybe the big pitch just caught up with them again, but they really looked clueless.
I watched the highlights back, and one of the commentators made a comment about Alli "he often adorns games, but struggles to dictate them" and I thought that was bang on, he just doesn't have that ability to change a game, like your Lampard/Gerrard/Scholes etc. It is the same with England, when it matters, he just can't make that final step up, maybe it will come with age, but the three mentioned previous were already doing it by 21. Usually something engrained in a player, and it looks to be just too much for Alli to contend with. When the going get's tough, he just becomes a snide little bugger. Sort of player you mark out early to wind up.
Like many of you, I don't believe you bottled the League, you were never going to win it. Seeing ourselves play against Chelsea three times and yourselves twice, the difference in quality between both sides is quite some distance. Will be interesting to see how Conte deals with Chelsea in Europe next term, and also to see how you get on at Wembley every other week.
Lastly, I would swap Levy for our board every day of the week, he has done wonders for you. Can't believe some on here actually have a go at him.
