Strangest game I've ever seen. Cruising and couldn't live with us. Romero was possessed and needs to be reigned in on his rush of shit to brains. Some heroic performances though. Vicario and I though hoijberg was a warrior when he came on. Just need to get back on track v wolves Saturday before international break.

Everything Ange says is spot on, he can say no wrong. Being in a cult doesn't feel so bad with this cunt tbf
Ange oozing class once again.
My manager.

Any update on Madders?
What's the point? Because it was very nearly 2-2, twice.
Ange: “we go down to five men, mate, we’ll have a crack”.
Looks like we are going to continue to enjoy our Spurs football for some time to come!

Expecting a back line of Porro / Dier / PEH / Royal to successfully park the bus 9 v 11 for 40-odd minutes is mad (and suprising to hear given how much shit Dier, PEH & often Royal usually get from many on here). I have no problem with how Ange had us play.....
At 10 men we looked the more dangerous and deserved the equaliser for 2-2.
Those 2 late goals we conceded meant nothing.
Id love to think this will be the case but his hammy has clearly gone, so im almost expecting him to be gone for a month (which is a disaster to me given he's been an 8/10 player every game for us)
Son scores and it’s potentially a master stroke…
He's fine
Nailed it.
That’s an example of losing 3–1 and not doing yourself a disservice.
Edit: whoops, 4–1. I missed the last goal

The return match will need calm heads.
Can't we delete this cursed thread..
Way too much emotion from our players in this match, for no real reason.

Ange thinks he will be ok for our next game - knock to ankle taken off as a precaution
Eaten half a chocolate gateau so far. Fucking haute Chavs
Just not true though, is it? We have changed massively since he came in, we've changed massively since last season. I'm not pro-Levy and many of his decisions have provoked my ire since the Pochettino sacking, but you can't ignore everything Levy has done well and tar and feather him for every poor decision. Ange has been a massive breath of fresh air and Levy is taking strides to put more people between him and footballing decisions.
If winning silverware at any cost is the be all and end all of supporting a football club for you, why the fuck have you chosen Spurs? If watching us pump teams playing sexy football, like we have done all season so far, doesn't get you hard whats the fucking point mate? You could go follow City or Real Madrid and you'd be popping off about a title every season.
Its about having a clear identity, to show we do not fall back. If that means we lose to top teams because we are 2 down for 45 mins incl stoppage, then so be it, chances are we would lose either way, but it sets a precedent for when we are 11 vs 11 and up a goal...we do not fall back, we do not get scared or careful. We have alot more to gain in the long run from sticking to it in freak occasions like today, than we do do from falling back and hope to knick a point when this does happen, which (hopefully) wont be often.
The problem with that is we would be winning the ball back deep in our own half if we camped in our box. And have to break 80 yards with a two men down.
He really does. He's an enemy's nightmare, so hard to dislike.
