    Match Tottenham Hotspur v Woolwich Scum (15th Jan - 4.30pm)

    I think having a whole week to focus on a game has typically resulted in something good with Conte. Sounds like Kulu will be back, and with Gil running with confidence I don't think it's as doom and gloom as it may first seem. Be interesting to see what team them lot put out tonight, they don't...

    Match Tottenham Hotspur v Portsmouth (FA Cup) (7th Jan - 12.30pm)

    Yeah definitely. Portsmouth players will be playing to impress the potential new manager, they're playing in one of the greatest stadiums in the world for perhaps the only time in their lives, and it's the FA cup - renowned for upsets. Got banana skin written all over it, needs to be a...

    Match Tottenham Hotspur v Portsmouth (FA Cup) (7th Jan - 12.30pm)

    If it wasn't for the run in after this game, I'd agree. The prospect of losing more players to injury before a double header of scum and City is pretty grim, I'd rather avoid.

    Match Crystal Palace v Tottenham Hotspur (Jan 4th - 8pm) *sigh*

    Totally agree, it's been a frustration of mine how often we have the ball in the wide are and instead of chancing a cross, we play it back down the line and then slowly to the otherside. Sometimes it's worth mixing it up, cross a ball into a dangerous area and see if our attackers can get on...

    Match Crystal Palace v Tottenham Hotspur (Jan 4th - 8pm) *sigh*

    Yeah I think it was a fitness thing, we've seen him legging it about before just fine. He hasn't played much football at all for months now, in the opening 15minutes he was bursting forward with the ball and I think it took it out of him. We're fortunate we had another young player capable of...

    Match Crystal Palace v Tottenham Hotspur (Jan 4th - 8pm) *sigh*

    I must admit, last night I melted a bit in the first half when Palace put us under sustained pressure for what felt like ages. Lots of corners and pot shots, and we've seen how those go in against Spurs. Second half was total control, I don't know if something was changed tactically or whether...

    Match Crystal Palace v Tottenham Hotspur (Jan 4th - 8pm) *sigh*

    I think Gil proved he can beat a man, I'm sure a couple times his twists and turns got him away from the defender. His crossing wasn't brilliant but it wasn't bad either. I think the difference in his and Kulusevski's crossing was evident last night, Kulusevski has his head up and aims for a...

    Management (Unpopular Opinion) we need a major rebuild at the end of this season

    I agree, sack a proven winner of a manager, Conte, the man who dragged us back into the CL when it looked like an utter dud of a season, a man who is currently 2nd in win ratio % in our history of management, just so we can get the most out of the world renowned trio of Sarr, Gil and Spence...

    Manager Antonio Conte

    Yeah I read it like these players should go out on loan, prove capable of PL demands and then return ready for a place in the squad, much like Chelsea do with a lot of their academy.

    Match Another pissing game we won’t turn up to, have to suffer Emerson again and hope Kane or Deki save us - AKA Leeds at home, 3pm, 12th November.

    I imagine a lot of players will be avoiding 50/50's today or anything that might cause an injury. Going to be a painful watch I fear...

    Match Tottenham Hotspur vs Liverpool | 6 Nov 2022 | KO 16:30 | Second Half Match Thread

    Really interesting to see how Perisic and Kane link up, two very smart and experienced players. The issue is when we're pinned back and we don't have a runner to stretch the opposition, like Son and Kulu do.

    Match Man Utd vs Tottenham Hotspur | Wednesday 19th Oct | KO 20:15

    In fairness, I imagine most other teams records at OT are pretty shit. The gaff was a fortress for many years.

    Match Eintracht Frankfurt vs Tottenham Hotspur. UEFA Champions League. Tuesday 4th October . 20:00 Deutsche Bank Park

    Hard to disagree with much of this, although if you're saying Gil is too lightweight to play on the right and shrug off a defender, why would he be of any use as left sided defender? Sessegnon hasn't done much wrong by my book, I'd like to see him rotated with Perisic more often, he makes some...

    Match Eintracht Frankfurt vs Tottenham Hotspur. UEFA Champions League. Tuesday 4th October . 20:00 Deutsche Bank Park

    Ignoring the really poor finishing, I really enjoyed the game. End to end stuff, felt we had the better of the game overall. Surely we'll see some rotation for Brighton now though, they looked knackered after the 50th minute.
