Yep yep.

For all the noise about new manager that will occur now, I can guarantee you there isn't a manager in the world that will make Tottenham winners , NONE. You can hire your flavor of the month coach from mid table teams every year if you like but it's not going to change a thing. We'll always been between 7th and 4th most seasons because we have a regime who doesnt want to pay for wages and transfer fees to compete.
You Eze , you can have an odobert and Werner instead .
It's never going to work, poch got a godly gift that the young cheap options, dele, walker, rose, Kane and son grew into world class talents.

I don't know what the odds are with that happening again with Johnson, Odo, bergvall, gray, udogie , porro and sarr .

You'll all turn on the manager as usual unfortunately when the actual issue laughs

Tottenham's story is this - 20 years there is this owner and they never won something. Why?"

Ok rant done, now I'm out :contekiss:

Great post & totally agree. Eze was a no brainer to me. We are crying out for creativity. But as you say, you can get Werner & the Burnley kid instead. We pay wages that get you 4-6th. Never going to break the bank on a truly top player & actually try to win the title with real determination.

Who the fuck are you? :/

Specsavers my arse, pretty much every pundit has said the same, so has the xG and similar analytics - we've been let down by a combination of bad luck and bad decisions / finishing in the final third, but pretty much every analysis of our first 3 games, whether statistical or 'pundit eye test', have concluded that we were unlucky not to have 9 points from our first 3 games. That may not suit your narrative, but it is objectively true - if you don't believe me, go and look at the analytics and pundit thoughts on us after the first 3 games.

Nice one. Good stats puts the ball in the net and stop us from conceding set pieces. Im off to celebrate having more possession with the gooner cunts i know 👍

When we were really on top in the first half Deki had a shot saved at the near post, Solanke had a yard and a half but couldn't get a shot away, Brennan put a shot over the bar when he should have at least hit the target. If one of those goes in, or two, then it would be a different story.

Yeh but the difference is when we had Conte/Mourinho and we only created a couple chances a game it would be Kane or Son having those chances and they would bury them.

You can give Kulu/Johnson as many opportunities as you fucking like it doesn't matter, they likely aren't scoring. Solanke I can't judge too early, but can't say I'm expecting anything more from him than we already had from Richarlison.

Woolwich attacking down our right and it’s two or three seconds before Porto and Kulusevski appear on screen getting back. We’ve got to get better at the defensive transitions. People need to bust their bollocks.

Yes I don’t know where all the running stats come from as whenever a team attacks us there seems to be so much space. Half the team arnt even in view. Look at goons soon as we have the ball with our defenders they all shuffle back.

Same old song sheet every game. Dominate the game. Shot after shot with no end product. Frustration is really setting in for me.

It’s because our chance creation is abysmal, which is because the wingers are so poor. Johnson is literally a bottom 10 PL winger and Son is finished at this level. We got a manager in who relies on individual quality at wing play yet gave him complete shite there.
 
Totally calmed down now.

The positives






The negatives

Does that really look like we are ‘in a good place to push on’, Ange? That's twice we've been humiliated by the gooners at home under your watch. That is an absolutely. fucking. unacceptable. miserable. situation. Mate.

Nearly all necessary players present and fit. Four games. Four points. Thirteenth position. Utterly shit start to the season. And, yes, we've had some decisions go against us, but there's only so much we can whine about that.

Fuck this shit. Fuck football. Fuck the universe. Cuntverse more like. Go on, fuck off and disappear up your own blackhole.

Time to comfort eat my way through a six pack of pork pies then bellow like a maniac in the woods.

I wonder if I’d feel anything if they sold…

I think we would feel optimistic again & like anything is possible. A unpredictable fun journey ahead . Under Enic it’s top 6 & no trophies. To balance it a bit, I think modern football has taken away a lot of my feeling for football anyway. Levy & Enic suck the life out of it.

Is it really "dominantion" or is it that the opposition are wise to the fact we're just going to prance around for 90 minutes with no threat and they just need to wait for a chance to break?

100%

If the opponent knows Spurs are toothless against a packed deep block then of course they will volunteer to defend and give us the ball. They know that they will still get opportunities from set pieces and counter attacks, and a good handful of them usually too...

The most frustrating thing for me is we had a free run at eze,he was there for the taking,would have been so good for us.Even Steve parish said he was surprised no one came in for him.

I don't think we were poor today as it happens, but that's not what my comment was about, you literally said 'this season', not just today's game, that's what I was challenging. Learn to read your own posts.

We have four points from a possible 12. We beat the worst team in the league and that's it.
The team huffs and puffs but delivers nothing, it's been going on since December.
Nothing has changed and we are sick of it, nice man but has been over promoted.
He will be gone by end of November probably.
