    FUUUUUUUUUUUCK RB. We better smash them.

    Ex-Spurs Player Toby Alderweireld

    Our fullbacks are also just terrible at defending set pieces, and Winks is awfully tiny for a defensive mid. We have a lot of problems beyond just our CB's when it comes to set pieces.

    Ex-Spurs Player Toby Alderweireld

    No, it means we still need new ones ... AND have less money to do it with. Unless there is some drastic, nearly unprecedented, change in his form and fitness ... Toby is not good enough to start for Tottenham any longer.

    Ex-Spurs Player Toby Alderweireld

    Agreed 100%. He was possibly the best center half in the world for a few years, an absolute Rolls-Royce of a footballer. He's not "lost a step", he's lost an entire skyscraper worth of steps. Keep him and pay him huge wages well past 30 when he's clearly not going to get younger or quicker...

    Ex-Spurs Player Toby Alderweireld

    The thing is, Eriksen has been bad because he doesn't seem to care. I think Alderweireld has played hard. He just is not any good anymore. Those leg injuries have had a terrible impact on his ability (especially the hamstring injury he had in 2017). On the wrong side of 30 and with bad legs, I...

    Ex-Spurs Player Toby Alderweireld

    Not even close. People see "Alderweireld" on the back of the shirt and seem to think he's the same player. He's an absolute ghost of what he used to be. Sanchez hasn't been great, but he's been much better than Toby this year. Watch both goals last night ... the first he backpedaled immediately...

    Ex-Spurs Player Toby Alderweireld

    I have a season card for a 3rd division team here in Austria. I'm pretty sure there's center halves I see regularly on Friday nights in that league which are in better form than Toby since his last leg injury.

    Ex-Spurs Player Toby Alderweireld

    He's been one of the worst center halves in the entire PL for going on a season and a half. Glacially slow of foot and prone to some terrible mental lapses on top of it. He was dreadful last night again, and I cannot possibly see the reason for giving him a new contract at this point other than...

    Match UCL Matchday 5 - Olympiacos

    Our back 4 is still the same trash. Why would it be different?

    Tactics What will ultimately be Mourinho's "1st XI"?

    Because nobody else is going to pay him, he's a busted flush. He's been straight up terrible for going on a season and a half now, it's not coming back. The injuries have ruined him.

    Tactics What will ultimately be Mourinho's "1st XI"?

    I can't believe so many people have Toby in the "untouchables". He's been fucking awful for going on 2 seasons now. The injuries (and losing the pace of Walker to clean up behind him on his side of the pitch) have turned him into a shell of what he used to be. He's constantly out of position...

    History Apart from Sol Campbell, which player went down in your estimation the most?

    Never ever understood the anger at Kanoute for playing in the '04 AFCON. FIFA had only changed the rule that year which made him eligible, it's not like he had been turning down Mali callups. And it was a major international tournament, which he had never had the chance to play in one of, and...

    That shows it from above as well. Hope you boys get your beers in long before you head towards the ground.

    Competition UEFA Champions League 2019/20

    Here's a (very blurry) image I took from a night game a couple of years ago in Munich to show what I mean ... there's fucking NOTHING near the stadium. It's just a long ass walk through a parking area.

    Competition UEFA Champions League 2019/20

    I'll just straight up say it, Munich kind of sucks. It's by far my least favorite of all the major German speaking cities. Central city is full of American, British and Australian tourists and every bar and beer garden is basically ruined because of it. Outside the center is just "bleh"...

    Management Whats gone wrong?

    Our back 4 is badly in need of a refresh. Our fullbacks were the worst set in the top 6 last season, and they are still the same this season. And our CB's are getting up there in years and don't move particularly well anymore. We had maybe the best back 4 in the league 4 seasons back. Losing...

    Competition UEFA Champions League 2019/20

    Belgrade is, by far, the most fun of the 3 cities in the group. An absolutely insane place to go for a night out. Problem will be, wearing Spurs gear or speaking English that couple of days will be quite dangerous :dempsey:

    Match Man City Vs Tottenham - Sat 17th August 2019.

    Think Sanchez has to play because the Verts/Toby combination just has absolutely no pace and against City that's suicide. So either Sanchez/Verts or Toby/Sanchez along with KWP and Rose.
