We were completely bent out of shape today.

Well done BJ, another top contribution to the team. It must be lonely at the top...
Sonny playing as a left back to cover for Udogie. Need we say more.
Solanke, the senior CDM we all wanted for Christmas.

At least we got to see Deki in the false 9 again...

that map seriously portrayed how out-of-shape we were in the middle

if you rewind the 2nd goal by enzo - we had at least 5 or 6 guys on the left side ball-watching Palmer and acres of space on the right - ultimately leading to their equaliser
 
FWIW, I have seen a clip of the Caicedo challenge. How was he not even booked? It's pretty much a carbon copy of the one that Romero got sent off for and we know that Caicedo is a dirty fuck so he meant it. You could tell from the way he was rolling around on the ground himself afterwards.

Always the same in this fixture, it's part of the premier league's shitty brand.

I’ll say. I should have known the ride would crash

Same VAR as the Romero one as well.
 
He can say whatever he likes. He’s paid to, quite frankly.

It amuses me that generally the likes of Carragher, Darren Bent, Jason Cundy, etc are regarded as absolute twats on here. Until they throw some ENIC shade. Then the perceptions change very quickly.

Just funny how far people will go to enjoy having their opinion ratified, even by a group of fucking bellends.

I think the people you’ve listed generally find it quite funny that Spurs fail . It’s even obvious to them now that there’s a constant that is very hard to ignore , impossible in fact .

What I find funny , well not funny really it’s actually quite sad , is how far some people will go to ignore the bloody obvious . I remember you saying about 4 or 5 transfer windows ago that you’ll judge enic on the next window , since then we have regressed pretty impressively. Do we wait for the next one ? The next manager? It’s becoming silly now , there is no argument for ….. all the best 👍
 
Can't even bring myself to care about the managerial clown roundabout at this club I'm so fucking angry after today. None of it matters while we've got this joke of an ownership who accept these results and mug me off for decades taking mu money and pissing on it. Fuck Daniel levy.
 
Looking at this match in isolation, great start but Chelsea were always going to be difficult to contain. This Chelsea team was better than many that we have lost to in recent years including under other Managers. We were not so gung-ho as usual and it only took the equaliser for us to start attacking again in the 2nd half as we were being penned in. We were competitive and looked like scoring. We missed several good opportunities but both early goals were down to mistakes. The 2 penalties were poor individual errors. We lost Romero, VDV, & Johnson and do not know if they will be fit for the next match. Biss is suspended for next Sunday.
We should not be making major decisions based just on this fixture which we usually lose. Cannot see Mason would be better and we need to wait until someone better is lined up. Until that happens Ange stays and if results improve then I would be happy for him to stay but with the injuries, suspensions and tiredness it is difficult to see that happening.
 
Tbh scholar was an ambitious chairman despute it going sour in the end. But scholars won trophies. Heard pleat say scholar wanted to sign enzo francescoli to play with hoddle and ardiles. World class player francescoli back in day but pleat declined. Sadly levy isnt as ambitious chairman. Simple as that.

No, we don’t wait. I said some time back that I’d be very much behind ENIC selling up to a more ambitious ownership. Even before that, I have always been as clear as possible in saying I don’t care who owns us. One of the very few on here that would be perfectly fine with Middle Eastern money.

And yes. I did say I’d give it four windows after the stadium opened. And I’ve not seen anything to suggest ENIC have made more money available or that we are signing better players than previously. Again, things I’ve made very clear on here.

What I don’t need to do is take a couple of lines of verbal from a pundit I’ve absolutely no respect for and suddenly treat him as a sage because he agrees with me. Behaviour I expect from many on here. Didn’t expect it from you though.

I can assure you that, nobody on here wants or relishes it when Spurs fail.

We all want to see Spurs succeed and win trophies.

We just feel like we are banging our heads against a brick wall when we can see the issues at the club and even after we bang on and on and on about them every single week certain people on here behave like ostriches. Or worse act like total losers who couldn't care less that this is one of the richest clubs in the land and act like we are some small fry club like Fulham or something.

Its infuriating when you can see something clear as day and others can't see it or simply refuse to see it.

Like the summer transfer window for example.

Did I say I have respect for any pundit ? What I did say is that if television pundits , you know the ones who reach millions of tv screens , are now stating the obvious then good . Personally that a step forward & it’s not just whispered in the shadows of forums and social media , it shines a light on the clubs problems
 
He's taking the piss out of us.

I have never been so convinced a manager is so out of his depth and just winging it. He is talking pure nonsense. He thinks we played well, wtf is he watching? I can't stand the sight or sound of him now, he actually winds me up so badly.

I can't believe our dear leader sits up there and hasn't sacked him already. He can't be this out of touch with the game and what we are seeing every week.

The problem is, Lange etc etc will be relucant to sack Ange until it's totally untenable because it will then portay them as clowns as well for actually hiring him, so everyone will be out to save their skin by hoping he turns it around.

He won't turn it around though. I have revised my expecations now and I think if Ange stays this season, we will flirt with relegation, it's that bad.

If Ange isn't gone tomorrow, it will signal to me the ownership are total clowns. There is no excuse to keep him. I said we should have sacked him in the summer, if I can see it why can't they?
No point sacking him unless we have someone better lined up and that is not Mason. When Poch went he had Mourinho lined up but when Conte went we struggled and declined further.

Non penalty XG was 2.91 Spurs - 1.46 filthy scum cunts (3.00 pen included)

It's just another brutal loss against these fucking utter cunts to go along with the 27 years of this shit I've had to put up with since moving to uk.
