People need to understand, in a system like Jose, Conté, Ancelotti, Simeone, etc plays, the right players is Vital. Ancelotti was dismal at Everton because they didn't get him the players he needed. He goes to Madrid and in one season wins 1) Supercopa de Espana, 2) Uefa Supercup 3) La Liga 4) UEFA Champions League and 5) FIFA Club World Cup. Why? Because Madrid backed him in every way.

That's 4 more trophies than we have won in the last 20 years.

We have had 13 managers in the same 20 years. I suppose all of them were the wrong football style and didn't posses "Spurs DNA".

But we have won the race to be the first FC that owns an Art Gallery, we the first FC that has a NFL ground, we the first FC that will have a F1 endorsed Gocart track, We going to be the first FC that has Executive apartments attached to our beautiful Stadium and we the first FC to sell delicious Vegan Hotdogs rolls.

Spot the problem. We are a Business that donates to a FC. Not a FC that invests in some businesses.
 
Ok so can cunte, his “coaching” team, dealer and any fan bois of his please leave our club and close the door behind them! They are not wanted!
Let’s summarise so far:
7 goals conceded v soton and Leicester
4 points from forest , soton, wolves and Leicester from what everyone said was an easy run
Played 8 defensive players to hold onto a 3-1 lead b bottom of the table team and still concede 2 goals
Never in control of that game today we hardly created any chances or built up play apart from counter attacks
Cowardly subs why bring on royal for porro?
With kulu and poro off we had no one to run with the ball or create anything
Left danjuma on bench again
Still cannot defend with said 8 players
Passing and general football was shocking much like what we have seen all season
We scraped results by luck early season and that has now run out everyone said it was not sustainable
Meekly and wimply go out of fa cup to 2nd string champo side
No goals in 180 mins we AC who are turd and brings on sanchez
Our history is worse than soton SU Leicester and wolves as we couldn’t beat any of them with a so called elite manager
We have tactics that Pulis and big Sam would be proud of
Plays PEH no matter what he was pathetic today never challehed
Miss chance to put big gap between us and dippers and over take Manure putting extra pressure on them plus they a have lot of games to play
We are not gonna get many points from Everton dippers and bar codes away and manure at home guaranteed annual tummy tickle
Guy is fraud and should be sacked tonight before international break
 
Of course all of us want us to finish in the top 4, but this is the first time where it wouldn’t bother me if we didn’t. Our club is in shambles and in need of a full reset. We use to be known as a club that won silverware. We were perennial contenders for the Uefa Cups, League Cups and FA Cups.
Spot on. Up 'til the mid-1990s and the dawn of Sky we were one of the clubs that actually won stuff, something like 5th I think at one stage in the all-time trophy rankings. Not a great league team by any stretch but definitely a successful club especially in the FA cup - all time record holders at one stage - and now most fans equate Spurs with not winning trophies, it's sad and historically quite a new development.

Loads I could write here but just gonna say for now don't care whether we are 4th/5th/6th this season any more - tbh with the quality of football we serve up most weekends 4th would feel like a bit of a robbery. We are ugly to watch, VERY reliant on Kane and bored of the 'will we sneak top 4' stuff now. I know why we do it (💰) but really bored of it and limply exiting cups because the club’s focus is on the league. Just try to win something like in the old days ffs. The team changes before Sheff Utd - took 5,000 fans here - said it all.
 
Giving up a 1-3 lead confirms all we need to know.

Dier, and Lenglet need to go.

You can't blame Conte for the shit show this pair put on game after game.

A 1-3 lead away from home against any team should be defended.
We can blame Conte tho for making us sit back and invite pressure! That's suicide with the quality we have at the back!

And we can blame Conte for us sitting back inviting pressure in 90% of all first halfs this season. And only attack when trailing.

And we can blame Conte for choosing to play defensive football, with a squad that so obviously has It's best quality's in attack. We have scored 3rd most in the league while playing defensive football. That says a lot about where our quality's are.

And we can blame Conte for always playing the same formation, even when It's not working.

The list could go on, but i'll stop there
 
I blame him for the "Early Emerson" problems. But that is where it ends. It is understandable when one watches Emerson now. Most of our goals have come because we allow them.

People forget Conté came to build a team. He said it would take more than a season to reach our pinnacle. He also said that he needs backing.

Yet....1) He is judged after 1 season. 2) He has players he doesn't want in his team and doesn't believe are good enough. 3) Fans constantly scream for his head (Even when Eric Dier backpasses an assist to opposition and Hugo taps the ball into his own net.

Can't blame managers for basic stupid errors. We've lost most of our games to that.
When it’s a season of abject performances, sitting back in games when we should be more ambitious, players all going backwards in development I think he has to take his share of the blame.

Our own fault let's face it. Conceded 3 to bottom of the table. We are shocking
Yea we asked for as soon as we went 3-1 up. Instead of pushing on and trying to control the game we just let them have the ball. They getting down the flanks and crossing balls all gane and we let them without ever challenging. How many times did Romero get done today. Sell the fucker he slows the gane down so much and destroys any hope of moving the ball quick. Fucking di annoying!
 
I’d like us to qualify for Europe no matter what competition, we’re hardly in position to turn our noses at any type of silverware! personally playing teams that are on a level with us that are further down their respective leagues is far more entertaining besides how many on here have said this that and the other about Barcelona ,Real Madrid, PSG or Bayern? Champions league is a cash cow feck all to do with football for us to compete with the aforementioned teams we need serious investment that just ain’t gonna happen, is it ? I’d be delighted if we won the Europa league
We couldn't win a Fuckin corner....

You can’t blame conte? Are you sure? He fucking sets us up so their shitness is exposed. Instead of putting the foot on the gas at 3-1 by trying keep the ball and push them back we just let them stroll through to our half without a challenge. Let them cross and shot Willy nilly. His tactics mate and he plays as many of these clowns as he possibly can!
 
No-one is fucking happy. Give it a rest.

You really think there are Spurs fans happy with today?!

Nothing like forcing an agenda into every situation.
That doesn’t add up. Not happy, so want to keep enic & levy because they are not happy with the state of our club. Odd bunch.
