'Reeking of desperation?' - who could Spurs turn to next?​

Yes, but what else do we do, and from ashes of despair can rise the phoenix of hope.

Or some other literal/poetic bo!!ox.
 
Only our fans think winning the EL is some huge deal. It has been won by so many average clubs. It is firmly viewed in the footballing world as a second tier trophy that is beneath the top clubs. And we won it whilst being terrible in the worst final ever. Nobody is under any illusion that this trophy is something we will make a habit of.

It's a big deal to us as a club and the fans due to being starved for so long and wanting just anything - it isn't going to help attract players. Players will look at the Woolwich project and despite them not winning anything they got to a CL semi final and got 2nd. They are competing in matches the genuinely top players want to be competing. Eze wants to be playing against Madrid in the CL quarters, this is what players dream of .. not Frankfurt on a Thursday night.
Such a small trophy and yet you Woolwich cunts have never won it..
 
Crystal Palace boss Oliver Glasner speaking about the absence of forward Eberechi Eze on Channel 5: "I expected that he would start today for us but he called me this morning and said he does not feel well to play the game. I have to accept it and everything else you will have to ask the chairman.

"Don't believe everything you read hear" eh Oli?
