Still haven't even seen their 3rd goal, I turned it off when they got the 2nd as It was inevitable.
That would hurt. At least when Bale missed he can still look forward to his 600k weekly cheque which may ease the result.
Cover it some more, you've got a lot of making up to do.
Is it wrong that this game still hurts?
I think it's 'cos of the classic trap I let myself get sucked into...
that this time it would be different.... we had Bale now, we were 3-0 up... with 8 minutes left!
3-1? mere consolation, surely...?
3-2 you say...? ah well, same as Jose's first game, we saw that out and he'd only had a day or so with the team back then.... now he's had time to instill his discipline... Jose teams don't concede 3 goals in 8 mins!
...the inevitability of their equaliser was based on past Spurs teams who were weak... but not this one... this team is differoooooh for fuck's sake!

You’ve had quite a while to think of a suitable repost
Is that really the best you can do?
Why not just admit it that spouted off without bothering to read my earlier posts about him???
Or you were pissed or both?
I think I’ve explained my position quite clearly
As a matter of interest have you ever been wrong about a player before??
There's wrong Baz, and then there's saying Sissoko is a great footballer wrong....
We are all wrong from time to time, but that's abusing the privilege.
Please quote me anywhere where I seriously suggested that Sissoko was a great footballer
I just defended him saying he wasn’t quite as bad as people like you or rather just you were saying
I was always aware of his faults but for a while he looked as though he might overcome them
Sadly for us this season and towards the end of last season he hasn’t!
So get rid
Do you agree that Aurier Sanchez Moura and Winks should join him?
Beeep beeep beeep - REVERSING - CAUTION - REVERSING Beep Beeep Beeep
No reversing here fella. Its only you that's taken a comment of shitting on someone's face as a serious threat.
Calm down and take your valium.
It worries me that it's that game that worried you more. Sometimes you come across a keeper having his best game.
he was stretching to dinky touch it. still goes back to bale not running to the corner instead of trying to go for goal. from the goal kick it. There is lots of what ifs but when you have the ball in the 92 minute with no one near you, you run it as far away as possible and just fucking stand there and get pushed over. Its easy to blame the person who didnt do what they should have done just before the goal but the attacking players also need to take the flak for the last 10 mins. more so when it was 3-2 going into added time. win the ball, keep it. Simples.

chill with the insults, there's no need.
Calm down
I actually thought West Ham were the better side throughout, despite us being so dominant in the first 15 minutes, they looked pretty good with the ball and after making a few adjustments stopped Kaney getting on the ball.
Half time came and went but lethargy set in second half and West Ham piled players forward and really controlled the game from thereon in, and return of the Messiah did not go well after his open goal miss which let them back in to get those three goals.
We just went a bit Spursy and let them back in when we shouldn't have and it was so sad to see poor old Sonny almost crying in that interview - I really felt for him.

If it's just a case of running the ball into corners to waste time then that shouldn't be a problem but it isn't that simple.
But a team dominating a match and being punished at the end for failing to take their chances is something that often happens - so often in fact that there seems to be an inevitability about it.
A team throwing away a 3 goal lead with 10 minutes to go is very, very rare - even for us.
I bet that won't happen to us again even three times in the next ten seasons.
But if we continue to waste opportunities to kill teams off like we did against Newcastle then we will continue to get punished for it, that's why the Newcastle game worried me more.

The fact Newcastle only had one goal to make up made the outcome inevitable...
We had a 3 GOAL CUSHION against West Ham... we had a buffer, goals to spare... a free hit... and we still fucked it up!
That's inexcusable! We are still a bunch of stupid millionaires who STILL fail to learn the lessons of the past....
If that's the case, there really is no point in ever hoping we'll get anything out of this club other than inevitable disappointment... the only thing different, is the creative ways they manage to mess with our heads.... and our heart rates!
Yes losing 3 goals after the 80th minute won't happen to us again. My point abou running into the corners is that bale run. it's 3-2 in the 92nd minute. Just isn't necessary to go for goal although he showed magic to get in. Sometimes at that moment the real magic is doing standing and covering the ball and let yourself get fouled, play it short...we'd have definitely have won if that was the case. Not completely his fault but people seem to pick on each player that was guilty of doing something on the leadup to every goal. For me that was one of them too
