Jesus, times change fast.
Great match, amazing atmosphere. Honestly felt like the start of something huge.While the crowd sang 'Harry Harry, give us a wave... we want you to stay' at Redknapp because he'd just gotten off the tax case.
Jesus, times change fast.
In some ways it was, of course - though I don't think any of us were expecting the wheels to fall off our season so catastrophically with Chelsea then winning the CL as the crescendo.
One of the few times I’ve seen us live. Like you, I thought it was the start of something special. Instead it was the peak of that era’s side.
When Benny scored within 3 minutes I knew it was going to be an interesting evening.
I don't like all this shit. I know it's not going to stop, but I think it's just a distraction. It just means his focus isn't 100% Spurs. All this rubbing shoulders with celebrities stuff just doesn't sit right with me.
By the way, is it just me who cringes every time they see him referred to on this forum as either Deli or Ali. He is neither "a shop selling cooked meats, cheeses, and unusual or foreign prepared foods" or a heavyweight boxing legend / up and down right handed off spin/left handed batsman English all rounder. DELE or ALLI or DELE ALLI. IT'S NOT FUCKING DIFFICULT!!!!!

Nice rant, but he actually came out and said something about wanting to be known as "Deli" and that he doesn't feel a suitable connection to the name Alli.
Pretty sure he wants to be known as "Dele" - the name on the back of his shirt is a little clue.
Misspelling of Spurs players by Spurs fans winds me up a lot more than it should. We see their name every bloody day in one way or another!!
Ok don't get me wrong... Goran Bunjevčević (googled it, and what) is one thing. But Eriksen, EriC Dier, EriK Lamela, Dele Alli, Mousa Dembele, Davies not Davis etc.. coooomeee onnnn!
In which case, guilty as charged then!
ochhail:(TBH, I thought you were addressing, the cringey(?) over familiarity 'thing' that has been know to be a bit of a gear-grinder for some in the past.)
Christian & Cristian always get's me... Always pick the wrong one too.
ochsulk:p.s. It's Mousa Dembélé (with the accents, mofo!) 
[edit] DOn't call you rocket for nothing, eh?
Is not putting accents on a spelling or grammatical error? The important questions.Errr... Mousa Dembélé
:dierpochhug:
Between his Fortnite-ing and his clothing shit, there's not much attention to spare for football.
They said, when he first joined us, that this was a young player with the correct mentality, that he had the focus and drive needed to be a star. I see a young, extremely talented footballer, throwing his talent away to all sorts of distractions. He's been on the decline since his first year.
I think the club is partly to blame for using him too much in their social media shit with Dier the first year. Young players should be kept as far away from media, social media and all this other shit as possible while they are developing, to avoid these issues.
We've seen the best of Alli. Shame.
