Perisic stinks I know he’s good but I’ve not seen it in a Tottenham shirt aside from set pieces

I prefer to be truthful and while I particularly hate Arsenal and some teams, I always address them with respect and give them credit where credits due but this season Arsenal (frauds) have lost mine. Commiting blatant fouls and handballs everywhere in the league and diving at any opportunity and claiming they deserve wins. Their refs don't even check VAR or when they do it conveniently doesn't work. Then they say Kane dives. If anything Gil has dived more than Kane has this entire season (If you want to go out on a limb and call it diving). The pen against Frankfurt (about 6 yellows and a red to them in that game - proof of violence) they should have left Kane he was never going to score anyway. Even the Everton game would have been different if they didn't take some of that Werner Sauce.

So Emerson sent off for a dodgy challenge but Gabriel gets nothing for several dodgy challenges? Okay, take the L and move on but this is fishy

Haaland's massive tran-hands aren't fooling anyone.

It also makes you appreciate that we didn't panic buy him despite needing a backup ST

what do you mean "sell"? he left for free

Barca is in shambles yet the fans can’t believe a player might thrive in a better environment

If it’s a loan who cares if he ends up sucking? It’s a low risk, high reward signing.

Next summer we’re getting one of Bastoni or Gvardiol, I hope you understand that.

G. Jesus 🤢🤮

It was dodgy but if Sissoko UCL final was a pen the same logic should apply here I dont feel bad for a second

400k cleared off the wage bill, so if they go in the summer then it can surely only point to an actual decent spend in the summer and a proper rebuild around how Conte wants the team. But, the pessimist in me still realises it's Levy so the exact opposite could happen and we end up getting no striker, no rwb and another winger...

The only way out of this is someone with incredibly deep pockets that’s either desperate for a club that fits our profile or is a Spurs fan buys us.

Have we actually fumbled the Adana deal??? What the actual fuck

Also why the fuck are we looking for a LW?

We need hard workers, we keep buying talent and it flops, we need warriors.

Goals (and so assists), expected Goals and mistakes leasingt to a Goal are everything. If you as a team/player are good in those, you win more than the others and so you win trophies. That was one of our problem sometimes, getting talented players with bad stats like Lamela or GLC or Ndombele, which would bring nothing to the club in terms of filling the gap

But Diaz and Pellegrini are completely different players. And you're forgetting how Diaz plays where our 2nd best player who just signed a 6-year deal plays. In a position where we already have a solid back up (Bergwijn) and one for the future (Gil). Alberto is just sight to watch IMO and I don't think he'd struggle too much. I mean isn't Serie A the league with units like Skriniar, Koulibaly, Zapata, Kessie, Bonnuci etc?

Why are we rumored with Diaz? Doesn’t make sense to me at all given what this team needs.

He always had quality but it looked like he lacked that something extra to step up, Copa America made a huge difference it has boosted his confidence and since the start of the season he looks like a completely different player He always looked nice, but now he is the most decisive player in the squad

We’re shit

Why does Levy hate spurs

Thiago Silva puts two hands to push off Davies for his goal and it doesn't get disallowed cause Davies ain't a diving loser

The PL caused the mess in the first place by not setting a precedent and sticking with it.

Weaseling out of the NLD is not worthy of celebration ffs. Arsenal embarrassed themselves by even letting this happen. It's a joke they've been allowed to.

Who did Arteta suck off to get this game postponed? Premier League just awarded incompetence.

I can't believe the game got called off. The last time I checked Arsenal had ONE covid case. The game should not be called off because of a lack of players. Xhaka getting suspended was his club's/his fault and we shouldn't have to pay the price for that. They decided to loan out two players (AMN and Balogun) this window and now get a request approved because of their lack of players? Absolute joke. Furthermore, for the players who had gone to AFCON, the club takes into account the nationality of the player before they are signed and any periods they would have to potentially miss. They're so lucky the game got postponed because they brought it (lack of players issue) upon themselves.

I don't want Gollini to play ever again I don't want Tanganga to play ever again I don't want Doherty to play ever again I don't want Emerson to play at wingback ever again

romero dier davies sanchez tanganga and a left footed starter sell rodon keep japhet

think it’s mainly cause Conte isn’t really playing with a CAM in this system, he’ll probably focus more on an attacking RWB

Pl fans really like to trash player very fast

To think Winks may be a member of our best XI is insane.

SIUUUUUUU

Except City only offered about £100mil which was vastly less than he was worth in the summer. The power of hindsight is a wonderful thing but if we sold Kane for £100mil and had Nuno in charge every fan would be livid. I can only think that we go big for Vlahovic in Jan and hope that Kane finds a bit more form.

In blackmail attempts perhaps.

I think Ballon d'Or nowadays laughable, just a popularity contest not about being the best footballer anymore.

It's gonna sound a bit controversial, but Sterling has done fúck all all year aside from 6 good games in the Euros. If you ask me if he hadn't done so much to combat racism he wouldn't be on there. Or alternatively, if Rashford had the Euros that Sterling had, he would be up for the Ballon d'Or despite having a pìss poor end to last season, and hasn't played yet this season.

Except for the goal, Lucas was terrible, completely invisible, Gil doesn't deserve to start. Bergwjn needs to play. Upfront: Bergwjn GLC/Tanguy Son Kane

We were also the first English club to win a European trophy, history can go both ways.

What a convincing arguement.

Our main formation should be 4231 Lloris Emerson tanganga Romero regulion Skipp. Holjberg Gil. Gio. Son. Kane With ndombele and Lucas as super subs

Dele alli is clearly a one trick pony & a system player. He’d thrive playing false 9 for likes of city or any possession based teams. He was never a midfielder and he’ll never will be

Ndombele should be a sub not a starter imho his fitness is a huge liability for a midfielder, Alli is done I have said it from the start of the season he is not the same anymore. Lucas started to show up again on 2nd half. I think he should play CAM while Gil on left flank and Son on the right. So Kane can play his role at ST and get the ball he needs. Hoj and Skipp shouldn't play together because both very defensive minded and last time they played together our mid became so dead and passive. Play Hoj, Lo Celso, and Lucas at mid Imo. Skipp can get in when we won and kill the game. On 2nd half against it is noticeable how we play a bit better after Alli and Ndombele subbed off. Also I have no idea why Nuno don't play Romero as a starter.

Should have played Emerson, Romero, Gil. Tanganga being exposed by Auba and overwhelmed with fast counter attack he has no chance to hold and win the ball when Dier drop way too deep at the back not supporting him to cover other players, also Sanchez prone mistake he should work on it otherwise he should leave for good. Our mid is pathetic as hell no support, no trackback, zero awareness, clueless with the ball, zero playmaking ability leaving defenders and forwards exhausted from going back and forth. Nuno's play too passive, he don't even know what to do with the players at his disposal and he don't even have a plan after getting conceded, so no coincidence in EPL we lost 3 matches consecutively and conceded with 3 goals each. We don't have a real playmaker as well to replace Eriksen's role, so it is recipe for disaster.

That was abysmal, why does know one understand how to track the runners? Arsenal could have had a lot more

Am I the only one who can't help but laugh at the fact Spurs' golden years are coming to an end and we have nothing better to show for it than memories of two Cup Final defeats and coming second in the league?

Here to vent. Dele is not being rejuvenated in this team. I'd honestly take Lingard in a heartbeat over him. Either way, he needs to go. Its always better to refresh the squad. Dele's running in from deep is interfered with Kane dropping deep. That's why we've been starved of that link up play for over 3 seasons now. He won't work in a 3-man midfield and I would much rather have him on the bench. Its funny because he should promise before getting injured in mourinho's first season. We desperately need Bergwijn in the team, and I would rather have him operate on the right with sonny on the left. Regi needs to stop being wasteful in the final third. Idk if he's just rusty or if he just had a golden patch for sevilla and early last season vs us. Kane needs a kick up his ****. That was a horrendous display. He played like a 46 year old. I agree with Kapakap or whatever the **** his name is in that he needs to stop dropping deep. I think he's wrong about Lukaku being better than him for years, but he's right about how its detrimental for us in the long run. Either that or pair him up with a proper poacher who is willing to stay up high and run the channels. Lo Celso should not be playing on the right. I can't even count how many times he lost the ball. And Dier is basically bad luck at this point. And A Ndombele that can play for 90 mins consistently is vvv necessary. Our squad has 3-5 players that can start for league winning teams and a couple of flashes in the pan, but we also have a squad that can easily be mid-table. And its the 3rd season in a row now where I can't see a vision we have. Its like as soon as the stadium opened everyone just gave up like wow okay now what. Watching games from the Poch days genuinely make me sad. Our social media accounts have nothing to upload but clips from those days. Alas, the quintuple is still on lmao. But realistically, we're not making top 6, let alone top 4. Probably not winning the conference league either. I was expecting a mass exodus this summer, and tbf we did get a bit of that, but I stg we need to sell everyone we can. It's always better to reshuffle. I'd be happy to sell Kane, and idk what Levy thought we'd get out of keeping him for another year.

Grealish is yet to turn out to be the Grealish player that £100m turned out to be.

£100m is yet to turn out to be the Grealish player that Grealish turned out to be.

From the look of it if the choice between Winks or Ndombele, Nuno will play Winks. I hope Ndombele will play though but he need to sort out his issues first.

All released now!

I feel like the last few years of his spurs career ruined his legacy for the fans, the guy was world class for a good 4/5 years

It is a matter of time until he is a starting player. He's only played the play off games against Pacos, was average in the first leg (everyone didn't play well), was amazing in the second leg. He would've started against Watford, but Nuno said he had slight injury problems with left him on the bench.

You people are far too liberal with the term 'small club', it's laughable 😂

Some commenters here are kinda clueless. Real life football is not the same as video game. Just because you can put bunch of world class players in a club doesn't mean they will play well together and fit the system then guaranteed a trophy or two. He fits Tottenham system that's why him and Kane are deadly duo up front in EPL for seasons and playing their best football in their prime. Just because football players never won a major trophy doesn't mean they are not legendary. That's the problem with PSG and City they think they can buy UCL trophy with more money and put bunch of world class players in a club doesn't matter if they are fitting well or not.

He isn't actually better than Japhet you know. They're like the same player but one is already acclimatised to the prem
