Yes, but "feel MYYYYY pain" say the 'more' deeply emotionally invested melter crew....
EMO fucks.
It really doesn't surprise me but it's one of the reasons I do love this club. Top quality Spurs never change
Not long back, so haven't read anything yet.
Not going to do War & Peace I don't have the energy. But feeling down and pleased at the same time is fucking weird.
I thought we edged a very competitive first half, a half that I was expecting before we KO. It wasn't a clean first half from both sides, we weren't at our best but I thought we largely dealt with them but their counter would remain a threat throughout but we were ready for their counters, it's like they weren't a surprise, it's all they had. I thought we stood off them a bit more than we should but after the first 10mins had slightly the better control of the game. Then Mr Calamitty puts his hand up yet again and says I got this, CHAMPIONSHIP PLAYER, no need to mention his name you all know who I'm talking about.
When Sissoko went off all the confidence went out of me, the main reason was he was the muscle that wasn't letting Pogba dictate, without him I feared we would lack this physicality. Well, that 2nd half performance from us was fucking superb, and I do mean superb!! We absolutely played them off the park, our finishing could have been much better and de Gea simply kept them in the game. Our play was quick, incisive, had invention and variation, largely playing through the centre then switching it out wide when at the edge of the box for it to be cut back or played through or over. How the fuck did we not win, let alone not even get a point?!
Winks was fucking outstanding!
Anyway, I promised no War & Peace, I'll leave it here. Fucking gutted at the result delighted with the performance. Big concerns for Sissoko injury for obvious reasons given how many injuries we've got in this position but also for Winks, who has played a lot of games recently and there will come a time when he will hit a brick wall. Also for Kane, I've never bought into the Kane injury an issue previously as we have had Son to play in that position, but with him off to Asia, it's now a big worry.

The Toby save, Dele's header, Dele's 1:1... Not trying to lecture, but (as a former keeper) many saves are made through positioning, and he was always in the right spot to make the save. He had a great day. We definitely should have buried a few shots, some were made easy, but he earned that clean sheet.
Balls...
I am totally drained after that, was right behind the goal in the second half we were attacking. I think I jumped for every header and went to kick every shot, how the feck none of them went in is just mental. Mike Dean is a knob. We battled and did everything but score, dominated them most of the game and just couldnt score. Mike Dean is a knob.
At least they weren't sitting down in our Block today and the atmosphere at the game seemed better. Mike Dean is a knob. Pogba I hear should of been sent off, UTDs tactic of breaking up our play was clear to see. Mike Dean is a knob. Just hope we are not going to have Sissoko and Harry injured now, just as Son goes on walk-about.
Did I mention, Mike Dean is a knob ?

Has anyone been sent off yet?
Or maybe they haven't found anyone because of the restrictions they're working under. What's so hard to understand.
Davies was as good as gold today tbf.
Different player when playing on the right hand side.
Looks uncomfortable at left centre back.
It’s won awards
Aye I agree with you there.
I just think a larger bench gives us more goal scoring options.
ochbye:
It's finally becoming clear where a lot of the confusion lies with the "Mooooooorrrre players"-rage crew....
No that’s where you’re wrong
Losing games by having turd players and being shite means you need to buy.
Losing games by world class players wasting chances, means you need to improve next week
Ah yes what we need is less quality on our bench that gives us no option B.
Now that's how you win games.
Pair of Golden Globes.
It's little things like this where Poch needs to be smarter...
We saw the same when he was trying to bring Toby back in BOTH times he was out too.... First sign of a return and the lads that were holding the fort well enough in the interim get dumped for a 'not quite sharp' senior player.
I understand the motive, but better judgement is called for.
I see
Bill Madrid
you didn’t feel like addressing anything here.As I said, doubt you even watched it
