Didn’t even look at the stats - we lacked punch but I thought Biss and Maddison looked ok

Bloke's chatting shit.
We hit the post not long before we scored; following a quality bit of play.
Played down the nature of all our goals too.
Nobody cares. Win every fucking game
And i bet you didn't even have to touch Mr. Johnson for it?...when Son scored the 3rd...
Oh the relief!!
In my 52 years of supporting Spurs we've only challenged for the title three times. In reverse order those were when Chelsea, Leicester and Everton won the league.
Of those three times, I'd say the closest we came was in - what was it, 87? - when Everton won. I remember being at the Lane for "the decider" in spring, we played brilliantly but Neville Southall was a man possessed.
Point being, the idea of Tottenham challenging for the League Title is still a pretty surreal dream for me. That's due above all to us being us, not Levy or ENIC or Sugar or anything else.
Yeah ok you got 39.25 years on me as a Spurs fan but not football, I don’t think you trust what Ange brings to Spurs tbh, I do
We won
Mickeys won
Means the Scum can’t go top Monday night
What a lovely Saturday

The mob down the road will be bothered
Don’t think it’s decided yet and depends how far the English teams go in this seasons CL and Europa.
Newcastle and United bombing out hasn’t helped.
A good defensive platform but lacking threat against a disciplined low block. An uplift from Maddison and Biss (showed signs today) will help especially if we can get back that zippy passing and one touch round-the-corner stuff we had early season.
Porro back will help obviously but he's not a magic wand. He doesn't really help that much against low blocks because Ange doesn't really have the rb's go round the outside.
Drama writing 101
Think we were all concerned at half-time but thankfully football has always been a game of two halves. Palace are often better away from home with the way they like to play, so a 3-1 win I would have snatched your hand off at that before a ball was kick regardless of how it come about.
Things aren't perfect right now but there's still far more to be positive and optimistic about than not. Roll on Villa, which should be a terrific game.

When you're done with imagining what's in my head and getting it wrong...and wanna have an actual grownup convo instead, gimme a holla
Turned out nice in the end, didn't it? 70 minutes of High Anxiety, followed by 20 minutes of sheer unadulterated bliss.
It's The Tottenham Way.
I'm happy for Werner, after his Blithering Idiot display of incompetence in giving the ball to the goalie, that he made amends by scoring. Johnson's persistent run and final ball were exhilerating and Sonny was - well, he was just Sonny.
What really pisses me off is the TV crowd shots before kick off - why is it only Korean tourists that make it onto my screen? Can we see some propermiserable old gits Spurs fans for a change?
