I don't know but, I get that he is one for the future etc, but honestly, the ball boy has more touches during a game than he does.
Depends who is in the team with him
This conversation has been going on all season. Doesn't matter how many different people try to explain why Romero does it, it's like banging your head against a brick wall.
It's funny when you think about it...
Villa showed us how we shoulda started the game yesterday, and the Arse showed us how we shoulda finished it!
We MUST learn... 'Cos we've paid TWICE now in 24 hours for our result!!
We're not gonna get ANY favours from anyone (and why should we to he fair?)
If we're gonna progress properly, and do this, we're gonna have to do it ALL OURSELVES!

They are not biting much though
You forgot purple
The colour purple?
Amazing how many posters are present during training sessions.
Everton were right in our faces yday. They had players running and pressing our defence and midfield. They certainly didn’t let us waltz up to their pen box.
A lottery ticket? No, i´m Spurs!Btw did you buy a ticket! Next please refrain from publicising your prophecies otherwise you be renamed to Nostradamus
It has been a while since the game and emotions settled a bit... but can't lie - this one still hurts quite a lot.
Not mainly because of the result. It was more about performance.
Though result-wise as well
- we got 1 point from the side that is now winless in 6 games;
- we lost the spot in top4 again;
- we missed a chance to come 3 points closer to leader
- gap with Woolwich widened by 2 points, despite we playing relegation-fighting side and they played title favorites.
We are mentally so weak and fragile it makes me very scared. We only really cared to play when score was equal. In winning position we got lazy and comfortable and never had the game in real control. Across whole 90 minutes, I'd say that despite being ahead until extra minutes, we escaped with a draw instead of giving away the victory.
It is so obvious that this squad CAN play so much better. But most of the times just don't bother to do it. Which is massive red flag.
Same thing happened against Bournemouth when we played very good football for 15 minutes. First half and from 60th minute onwards we just slouched around the field. After City game I said as well- City players were more hungry, they wanted the win more. We mostly play like we would have won the title 9th year in a row and couldn't bother if we win 10th as well or not.
Where is the hunger, where is the passion, where are the balls?
Sure, there are some factors not working in favor of us. Son is away and remains so for while more. Bissouma is away. I think Maddison is still gaining form. But missing 2 players is not some extraordinary feat. It is rather the norm. So Big Ange has lot of work to do before next game. Luckly we have 3 home games coming up, we seem to do better on home-ground.

When romero slows it down its to try bring out the opposition out of their shape to create space
Yep, perfect example of this was Palace away.
Him and Van de Ven just passing it between themselves, inviting Palace onto us and it lead to our second goal.
Why is okay and understandable when Lewis Dunk does this for Brighton yet when Romero does it he's slowing the game down?
Didn't watch the Brentford game then when he came off the bench and helped change the game.
Clown. Spurs fan my fat bum.
So? We're not in the Top 4 right now, but it's February. It matters not a jot what position we are on a random weekend in February. It's where we are at the end of the season
You're talking about the fans, right?
Spurs home = 24 points away = 20.
Only City have a smaller gap between home and away points won.
City *24-22 (only played 10 at home)
Liverpool 29-22
Woolwich 29-20
Villa 28-18
Based on that it’s actually our home form that is not as good as the top 3.
Have fans conceded 8 goals in 90th minute this season or has that been players?
