Personally I only think we were the better side for the first 30 minutes. With the form we have displayed this year and with being down to 10 men we should have ripped them apart. Instead we looked tired and disinterested and it felt like we were still playing against 11 men frankly. I think that's what annoys me about the result. It was ours to throw away and I personally think we did. I think that's where my own personal disappointment comes from. Much has been said about them being bottlers and us having overcome that, but it felt like the other way around in the second half for me.
Damn. Hopefully I can find a paper somewhere or someone else here has a copy. I'm fair chuffed with my opinion making a paper that isn't the sun.
MATCH THREAD The Mighty Tottenham v Dial Square
...or did you think someone else scored that goal, and THAT'S why you disagreed!!
Personally, I love the fact that rather than celebrating the goal WITH your fellow Spurs fans... you spent at least TWO seconds of your life thinking about, and then hitting a pointless disagree button!
'cos now I've spent at least 2 minutes of my life typing this... so I guess we're as bad as eachother...
More power to yourelbow thumbs!
Oh you hilariously petulant cunt Joseph.... unless you're disagreeing with him 'cos he didn't put a capital 'K' in front of kane's name???

Offensively they are the best team in the league imo, they aren't going to win the league though and everything is in their favour this season..
Wenger managed the last 20 minutes well, his subs worked - he's a very good manager of a team, but a shit manager of a football club.
Me, I'd rest Kane, Dier, Ali, Eriksen, Lamela & Toby ( if we could).
I have also be saying that I wouldn't put it past Chavs to win the CL, just like they did last time they were shit in the league and got a manager sacked.
Then only 3rd will be good enough.
I doubt we will beat Dortmund. If we door best team will have to leave fuck all on the pitch, and that doesn't bode well for the last 9 league games imo.
I respect your view. You could argue that resting lots of players would instill a defeatist mentality in the squad and therefore be worse for our league title chances. Perhaps the best thing, strangely, would be for Dortmund to beat us fair and square, with us fielding a strong team.
I just feel sure that if we keep playing strong teams in both competitions we will not win the league.
Personally I would rest Kane etc vs Dortmund with the hope that it doesn't have a bad effect on our title challenge. To me it's realistic rather than defeatist. But there's no right answer just different opinions which are all valid.
Certainly some good points there.
We seemed to struggle when they were pressing us. Didn't know what to do. I felt we were tired and needed the boost of the sending off. That raised our energy levels and after that we played well I thought until their goal...albeit against ten. We also played well, like you say, in the first 30 minutes. Fairly even at the end though I think we were looking like the most likely side to win it. I would not say we looked disinterested.
Yes we should have done more against ten. I think the key thing is that we should have won both league games against them. Both times they were there for the taking and we did not make the most of it.
Agree with all that. Except 4th would still good enough for the CL if Chelski win it, unless scousers or mancs win the EL too. The combination is fairly unlikely.
I was right next to the Woolwich 'fans'.
What a bunch of total and utter cunts.
That's all I have to say.

Yeah they changed the rules after we got fucked that year, to make sure no one else ever suffers the same fate.
The explicitly mentioned us in fact. So they let Everton in in the same situation, changed the rules, we got fucked then they changed them back. The most Spursian turn of events ever.
That says all you need to know about them.
I think he wants to use him more centrally if I am honest. also, I cant see him flying down the wing much.
will probably want to come inside a lot.
I also don't think poch really bought him to start. cant see how he will get in the main starting 11.
I wonder if they enjoyed the welcome committee they got yest?
I think before the game, they would have been happy with a draw.Yes for them when they went 1-0 up after soaking up everything we threw at them
We're still 3 points ahead of them with a far superior goal difference
And I still maintain Leicester will fall away towards the end
No need to melt over yesterday
Disappointing yes but take the positives
we were the favourites for this match.
He needs to improve which I think he will do but he will be a good option coming from the bench when he recovers
I've still got the right 'ump!! From sheer ecstasy when Harry hit that shot to deep despair when they equalised.
I'm not melting, but they were there for the taking and we have missed a massive opportunity to get some points on the door. We seem to have saved our worst performances (in my opinion) for the last two games, against opponents we dearly would have loved to beat. Having said that, we now need to consign these results to the past, and crack on. If I remember rightly, when we beat Woolwich last year, they went on a huge winning streak. This is what we need to do, there are still a lot of points to play for, and we need to get back to winning ways straight away.
I've still got the 'ump though!!!!!!
