Nonsense. A draw would have been a goid result.
We keep falling short in the final analysis.
It's not a negative assessment. Just an honest one.

Because a top class striker wouldn’t be prepared to sit on the bench behind Kane. This has been done to death.
I don't get annoyed. I just despair a bit that people can't be more measured.....and that applies equally to those who get carried away with expectation and those who just moan.
But I guess that's just football fans for you. *shrug*
That's the most frustrating bit though. They lost to fucking Huddersfield, under big pressure as a result, and we failed to respond

So you are arguing that finishing second in the league last year was "falling short" for Spurs? Champions or not good enough, eh?
When did you start supporting this club out of interest?
I think they want you to bottle up all our losses & then release all your pain by shooting up a high school.
He had ample opportunity and that is not his only quality.
I bemoaned the lack of Pochettino signing experience but if those players don't then bring that to the table when they get their chance there is not much that can be done.

They haven’t conceded at home this season.
I agree with this.
We're gonna need to stop penny pinching to keep hold of players like Kane too. He's no different to anyone else he'll follow the money and the trophies
Tired of these people so obsessed with the narrative of Spurs winning trophies and "making statements" every game played. Every team plays 38 games, every team drops points. Just because Man U beat us today doesn't mean they will finish above us. It doesn't mean we won't win the league. It doesn't mean ManU will win the league. It doesn't mean Man City will win the league.
Where the fuck did all these glory hunters come from anyway? Constantly moving the posts on what's considered success to the point that it's not ever attainable. No team wins every game, but we win the majority. We've only had an "elite" level team for 2 seasons built upon constrained investment and great coaching...we aren't suddenly Real Madrid. It's fucking magic what this manager and team have achieved given where we were when Pochettino took over. Enjoy the fucking journey because we don't know the future.

I am saying we fall short. Nope 2nd was fantastic and we could have done no more.
We lost the semi-final of the FA Cup. The game to have won.
I view it as the same 1 off as leicester winning the title.
And so it should be.
If it was a barrel of laughs and giggles I'd have serious concerns over the mentality of our fan base
Anyone see the contradiction?
It’s bad enough the media peddling this ad nauseam.
What after coming 3rd the previous season? How’s that a one off - it doesn’t even make sense.
So you think that it is good to drag fans down and make them miserable, fans that you then expect to turn up to games to support the team while you sit hundreds of miles away planning your tri-monthly occasional appearance?
Selfish attitude.
