Match WBA (A) 5th May.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

The players seem to think our season finished 20 minutes into the semi-final. You’d think that after the drama of the CL campaign this season they’d be desperate to be back in it again.

They didn’t really get up from Juve sadly

Just get to 4th and freshen up things in the summer

Liverpool need points too and will get something tomorrow we will be fine
 
I have a bad feeling this will be our last season in the Champions League for a while, Woolwich and Chelsea will only get stronger and I just don't think we can afford to keep up with 5 teams financially dominant to us. The players must be looking at players like Lovren earning £100k/w or Firmino on £180k+ AND getting to a CL final, which makes our final 2 games feel "pointless"
Shut the fuck up you cunt.

I completely agree. I think Pool will do in Chelsea tomorrow. The anti-Semite still wants that goal scoring record. On the plus side Newcastle and Leicester look even more on the beach than we do. They don’t look like they give any shits at all.

The relegation battle is the only thing keeping sky subscribers at the moment, the top 4 race is a host of teams trying not to make it, crap football

Good on WBA today, making Pardew look a right prick
 
Lots I agree with and dissagree with here.

Our attack was toothless and we struugled to link up bar a couple af very good moves. Yep, Kane has been shit since his injury, he was good first 15 mins or so, looked sharp but that was it. It is always hard to break down a packed noarrow deffense, and I would have liked for us to have been braver earlier on, but that I mean we ddn't need 3 CB's agianst Rondon, so should have pushed another higher up, Jan almost did this, just not higher up that I would have thought, not brave enough. Son was a ghost, as he has been for a while. But our entire control of the game went after Dele came off.

Whilst Lucas looked good on the ball runnig at them, it was he that gave away the ball, TWICE, that led to their attack which led to the corners and their pressure and ultimatley thier goal. But they certainly didn't deserve anything from that game, that toe poke was their first and only effort on goal, that's not a game plan.

It was strange taking Dele off. Poch quite often does this, leaves on the player who is clearly having a poorer game.
In retrospect maybe we should have just played the usual formation, changing things for 3 at the back also a bit strange given we have not played that for a long time. Sonny could have started... usually he is much better as a starter I think.
Though his form has really dipped at a bad time unfortunately.

With regard to Lucas, okay he conceded possession but the team still had chances to defend better. We do look quite shakey at times defending corners or free-kicks.
They may have had only one attempt on target, 2 if you count Kane's miscue, but they seemed to cause us a fair amount of unease at the back, and I don't think we caused them enough ourselves. Toothless as you say.

We just don't know how to play against this type of football. Its usually a struggle for us. Teams know that unfortunately so I do feel they did have a game plan (how ever distasteful) and executed it pretty well. They restricted our chances, only 4 on target out of 14, and only 14 attempts is pretty poor. We only made 2 clear cut chances I think, which isn't good unless you are clinical.
 
The rest of our players supported Rose you ignorant fuck.
Try supporting all our players for once, instead of constantly singling out and shitting on the ones you dont like.

I'm only shitting on the ones that shit on the club, like GKN and Rose. You, on the other hand, think that every player could and should be upgraded, replaced by whatever just as long as it cost more than 50 million, demands more than 200k per week, and doesn't have to be googled by Rose.
 
I think I must be the only masochistic cunt that wouldn’t mind a Chav win tomorrow.
Keeps (as you say) 3rd alive and leaves the scousers needing a win on the last day.
It will also (or should) light a torch under the arses of our players. Today was fucking awful. It genuinely reminded me of the Newcastle game 2 years ago. It’s not the end of season party just yet ffs so why were so many of our lot playing like it was? They need a kick up the arse & get themselves going again. Because we ain’t going to shake the bottlers tag unless we do it the hard way now, by butchering the bar codes and the foxes. It is still in our own hands regardless of what the Chavs do tomorrow, so let’s grab 3rd spot while we are at it. No more of this half hearted “it’s in the bag already” bullshit.
I know what you mean but a draw would be my preference. Headroom plus opportunity retained.
 
If Liverpool win tomo we secure top 4 by winning on wed. That’ll do. Really don’t wanna wait till next Sunday
 
Such a disappointment. Our last away matches of the season have been a huge let down. Stoke was scratchy, this one and Brighton we just looked ineffective. Away support was immense IMHO. Lots of singing and trying to drag the team to a decent level.
 
I'm gonna send my 3 year old son round to every Spurs player's LUXURY house tomorrow to explain to him how they conspired to put Daddy in SUCH A BAD MOOD this afternoon... when this morning was such sunny fun!
