Match The Mighty Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

You'll get abuse for that statement, but not from me. Anyone who hasn't shifted their sights from a top 4 finish to challenging for the title is kidding themselves, imo.
I just put a tenner on it at 28/1. I think those are good odds all things considered. Yes injuries could screw us. Yes, one of the big four could sort themselves out. But ultimately I think you're right that we are way better than a fourth place finish, we have to aim higher now.
 
Neg rep and sin bin request sent.

After the excellent draw with the Scum a fortnight ago I commented, correctly, that the 100/1 then available on Spurs to win the League represented a value bet. I didn't suggest that Spurs would win the League, only that 100/1 seemed generous.

You then started a thread asking people to sin bin anyone suggesting that Spurs will win the League, but didn't see fit to mention me by name. You got slaughtered, but still feel that this ghastly negativity is appropriate, it seems.

Have a look at the current odds and come back to me.

Absolutely glorious. That was one of the best Spurs performances I've seen in the past 4 or 5 years. Every single player was at least an 8/10 for me.

This team continues to surprise me every week. I've gone from feeling pretty apathetic about spurs at the start of the season to genuinely looking forward to watching us play every week.

Even when alli got booked I thought oh fuck. Then realised that it's fine as dembele can drop into the centre and lamela comes back in the front 4.

This spurs side is all about team spirit, organisation, skill and passion. Some of the stuff we were playing at 3 and 4 nil was barcelona esque.

Please let us smash Chelsea and make people take notice next weekend.

(I'm a bit over excited)

Just imagine if we had bought Berhino and Witsel or get a few class players in Jan window how far we might potentially go. I think Poch has earned the right to bring in who the fuck he likes.

Blimey , that was brilliant.
How wrong was ł about Poch and Dembele.For long periods his football could send you up
the old Swanee, but not now , and Dembele looks like a world class midfield general suddenly.
Please except my deepest apologies, my fellow Lillywhites .
Love is in the air .

No, you're right.

Tottenham are going to win the league this year. Just look the betting patterns - because that wins leagues.

Now if you'll excuse me I am off to tell any Chelsea, Woolwich, Man U, Citeh and Liverpool (and Leicester) fans to mind the gap. I'll then order my new Spurs Shirt with Chanpions 15/16 on the back.

In midfield we really don't miss a player for a suspension or a few games with an injury now, it's incredible. Also true of our fullbacks. The only weakness in terms of cover seems to be in central defence, and up front. It's an incredible feeling to feel that secure when one of our best players will miss the next match. Lamela is back next match too.
 
I'm not going to mention the "T" word in case of a jinx or a ban, but I have to say its absolutely there for the taking this year. None of the other teams have the consistency to win it, Leicester excluded. If they can win their tough games in December then they actual may be credible. I doubt it. So you can't win anything with kids? Bollocks.

I'll rephrase, politely: Have another look at the odds, learn all about basic English comprehension, then get back to me, there's a good chap.
