I sat about 3 rows behind him at West ham, his hair actually leaves his head and comes back down when we score.
It's hilarious watching him.. A good lad mind..
Dier isn't on the pitch to drive us forward though....
He (as a DM) is there to shield the back 4 as our deepest lying MF.
(Big fan of what I've seen of Gedson tho'.)
Bollocks to the negatives. I loved the win today. Loved it! And loved the big juicy 3 points with extra sauce on.
Yes I know he has just come back from injury- so how does that prevent him from coming off his line today and against Southampton? I have made my point about him- I genuinely hope I am wrong so we shall see.
Winks looks good when the game's being played at a slower pace (eg England Internationals), but in a frantic, open game, like today's, he didn't shine like Moura did. Moura really clicked - superb skills.
Sadly, there was no change in Dier either. I wonder if his days are numbered. I hope not, because I like the guy, but you can't get blood out of a stone, unless you're Moses or God, or both. Mourhino only thinks he's God.
I'm forgiving Dele. He's beating himself up more than you/us lot ever could and he'll come good again.
Lloris - hard one this. See how the rest of the season pans out, but currently I prefer Gazza.
Aurier - hmmm. Keep playing him. But only until a genius RB appears in the Summer.
Sanchez - good lad.
Toby's lost a lot of authority at the back. Has he seen his best days? Divine goal, though.
Nice to see Davies back and putting in a solid performance.
Shall I post this drivel? Yeah, why not.

your posts here prove you're not a spurs fan. Find another forum you frog eating turnip head
Grealish played well
Yet you're dissing Hugo for these things in other posts too....
Make ya mind up.
Regardless; any goal keeper will tell you Hugo was at fault... Particularly for the first.
Goalkeeping 101: Shout, scream, clatter your own players if you must; but OWN your 6yd box.
He's just had a son a couple of days ago and lost a lot of sleep as a result. Players are just human beings, after all.
This is true, but what are his excuses for the rest of the season?
Gedson was on for barely 10 mins and is nothing close to a DM - he’s not here to replace Dier - what are you even saying?

I'm actually not. Ok he's trying too hard sometimes, and too hard stuff other, and he's not really sharp in front of goal. But he's fucking there where it happens, he keeps making the runs and creating chances. A goal on one of them today and he could have scored a hattrick. I predict at least one goal on Wednesday and one against Chelski.

100% agree. What was it that meant England had arguably the best keepers in the world in the 80’s? It was because we had keepers like Shilton, Clemence and Corrigan dominating their own 6 yard box and beyond.
Woolwich and their “new identity and style“ battling it out for 10th spot.
Shit Spurs 1pt off top 4.

You are correct.
But if a keeper doesn't come for a ball and you are there you don't just stand with your foot limply out. You hoof it out of the ground then look at your keeper and ask. What the fuck? Hugo can't decide when to come off his line or when to stay. In the last four games he's made 4 mistakes, 2 he came for the ball when he shouldn't have and twice he stood rooted to his line when he should have easily collected the ball. Yet he got away with 3 of them.
His days at Spurs should be drawing to an end, just like Toby's days of being a first choice pick.
You are right that players are human beings. After the game he said that his legs were sore before the match so perhaps he shouldn’t have played at all especially when we had options
