I’m no happy clapper, and absolutely gutted about yesterday’s result and the previous two defeats, but in an attempt to convince myself that things aren’t that bad I’ve decided to create a thread for us to post more positive stuff about the club.
1) Pochettino. Yes he’s had a bit of a ‘mare with his tactics and subs recently, but he’s still a classy son of a bitch that we’re incredibly lucky to have. Showing some faith in his hour of need is likely to go some way in solidifying his connection with the club.
2) The stadium. Yes there’s a lot of bad blood due to the mishaps with it opening, but it’s coming. Before we know it, we’ll be settling into an incredible new home and starting a brand new chapter in the club’s history. This may well be the most significant thing to happen to the club in decades, and it’s within touching distance.
3) Kane. His form has been suspect, but let’s not forget that we still have a home grown striker that may well be the best in the world.
4) Dele. Gets overshadowed by Kane, but he’s one of the most exciting young players in Europe and is getting better every season.
5) Money. I know we didn’t spend a penny in the summer, but we’re going to be in a much better financial situation soon. The revenue from ticket sales, not to mention all of the additional stadium stuff (bars, climbing wall, executive boxes, sky walk, etc) that will all add up. We’ll have stadium and NFL sponsorship as well. We’re already seeing the benefits by seeing increased wages for some of our key players.
6) The fans. Through all of our ups and downs I genuinely believe we have some of the best fans in Europe. Yeah there will be the occasional boos and jeers, but when push comes to shove, our fans will play our part in lifting the team.
7) The present. As annoying as our last three results have been, let’s not forget that this is one of the best teams we’ve had in many years. Remember when you’re upset at our form that we’ve still got at least five more CL games to enjoy, including two against Barca. As a 90s supporter this is the stuff of dreams. Whether we go out or go through, these are days to cherish.
