Okay JDK, fair enough. Because I like you and respect you, I'll forget that last attack on me.

Cheers Justin. Why people keep defending the fiasco that Poch presided over in those two games is beyond me, but hey ho, etc.
I'm sorry you feel that way, but I can't help it if you see someone disagreeing with you as an 'attack'. If I agree with you I'll give you a tick, and if I don't I'll comment. I spent an hour last week trying to dig up some information for you - unsuccessfully I'll admit - but I don't think that is the behaviour of someone who has it in for you. You have strong opinions on Spurs - fine - but you surely must accept that others do too, and this will often result in robust debate to put it mildly.
I don't like the sound of you panicking when you go online though. Can't you just try and take it less seriously?
Don't bother then, you keep putting negative posts against me, so you might as well join the detractors

Didn't attack you personally, only your opinion.
Waste of time mate.
He says there is nothing in our recent form to say we can beat Burnley ... we have won 3 of our last 4 league games, including the teams either side of Burnley in the table. You point this out and it is a personal attack.
He says Poch has made shocking choices in the start 11, ask him what his preferred team would be and that is a personal attack.
As we all, I have experience of this, form past season and have developed defensive distraction techniques to deal with the disappointment when it all goes wrong. However, I really do feel and have done for many weeks that it is our destiny this season to finish 4th. I will alway believe we can until its not possible. COYS

loyalty to Spurs-being a Spurs fan? e.g. Today I watched Liv Vs Scum, I couldn't help myself every time Liverpool missed an effort on goal, cheering them on. I had to keep reminding myself I wanted them to lose?Cheers Justin. Why people keep defending the fiasco that Poch presided over in those two games is beyond me, but hey ho, etc.
Spurs 2-3 win - 3 pts is all we need?
Another match thread like this :chadliblow:
I expect to see Lamela or Paulinho making the starting eleven tomorrow. Going for a 3 - 1 win.

This entire thread is a personal attack on my soul. There is only one proper response to this fixture:

Rethinking my team selection. I know it's not going to happen, but
[formation=4213, Vorm, Walker, Dier/Fazio, Vertonghen, Davies, Bentaleb, Mason, Eriksen, Lamela/ Townsend, Kane, Rose][/formation]
Just with both Walker and Rose bombing forward it gives Bentaleb an awful lot to do to cover both. This way, you'd hope Rose would track back a fair bit if needed and Bentaleb wouldn't have to cover both flanks. But I also think that we should be looking to go out to beat a team like Burnley, not shutting up shop and hoping for a 0-0 draw. Rose has been outstanding recently and why not give him a shot on the wing? Chadli hasn't really been performing too well there recently. Can't decide between Lamela and Townsend, as neither have been setting the world alight, the goal for England could give Townsend a boost.

If Poch judges his players after how they have performed in Tottenham's shirt, and not their respective national sides, there is no way Townsend, Chadli and Walker start. However, they will likely start all three. Walker I can understand and since he has no replacement in the squad.
Massive game tomorrow, we drop points - top 4 is officially over and a win gives us 2/3 points to go on Saints and Pool. Burnley will be playing for their survival so will be a tough game for sure.
I'd go with:
Vorm
Walker Fazio Verts Rose
Mason Bentaleb
Lamela Dembèlè Eriksen
Kane

If it's ok, I'd just like to remind everybody ...
fuck the top 4.
This guy cracks me upOkay JDK, fair enough. Because I like you and respect you, I'll forget that last attack on me.
come on guys, why the need of discussing the same every week? let's stop be our own enemies.
And fucking hell, the game is in a bad hour, Easter in Portugal is taken very serious by my family
but i will escape and see Kane smash Burnley

Being as we lost both games I can't see what argument there could be as to what he got right.
There's some beautiful posts in here.
As for the game , a very tight win with mistakes & bits of sublime from both teams , maybe a wonder goal by Burnley & a superhuman performance by the keeper...
It's what we do TM

This is new for me, but I WAS FORCED to log in to browse this forum, just to be able to block Greaves357_bestever.
This shouldn't be a post to be honest, but I'm just so enraged that I don't give a fuck. That defeatist bullshit and relishing in other peoples' hope just grind my shit. Sorry for the rant.
