Drunk the Kool Aid on "17th unacceptable, must now be patient" regardless. Some people will buy anything if told it often enough in a sufficiently authoritative voice. (Trump, Brexit, etc) Maybe aren't actually watching, even without a single stat I don't know how you could watch ATM and be happy?🤷

Please can we get Moore back from Rangers, only been watching for a few minutes, but my god the standard is so low. Reminds me why I never watch Scottish football.

This is the same team who were calm and played with discipline and sense to put our European trophy win together and actually win the thing less than 7 months ago. I won't accept that they're all just idiots we should sell. #THFC

So this

Just seen the 2nd L'pool goal. WTAF, how on earth was that allowed to stand? Couldn't see from where we sit but suspected it was bad from the players reactions. For VAR to let that stand is corruption plain and simple.

There were some loud lads on the train going celebrating Richy not starting. RKM failed to win a header and couldn't hold the ball up. Now I'm not having a go at him, at all. Kudus was brain dead awful, every decision was wrong. Ditto not having a go, just maybe the setup makes everyone look crap 🤷

I grew up going to WHL with the expectation that my team would win playing good football. I do not like this new version at all and would like my Tottenham back, please.

Unmasked!!

Decent bit of fight at the end but setting up to contain this shell of a Liverpool side another demonstration of why Frank will never succeed

Liverpool aren't very good at all and £100m+ for Wirtz is extraordinary.

Probably pointless to comment on what happened after the first red. Before that we looked disinterested and disorganised. Cuti was acting like a quarterback, telling people where to go, as they clearly didn't know where they were meant to be, or what they were meant to be doing. 🤷

A boring game between two rather poor teams turned into a boo fest, but not for the reasons you might have expected.

Bergvall wide??

Just thinking, haven't seen anyone suggesting Odobert will start today. Seems his spell of being in favour with Frank has passed. Sarr and Bergvall experienced similar, as opposed to Johnson and Tel who have never even been in favour...

“Do you support ICE?” “Not really.” “Hell f*ckin’ nah.” These two dudes drink for free on us if we ever run into them in Minnesota 🍻

No, I think there will always be, no matter where you are, I think definitely 10% of the fans will always question the head coach, no matter where they are. And then there will be a big group that are the loyal ones or the ones that can see a little bit bigger perspective. So we're stupid & disloyal

I wasn't going to say this until tomorrow, but given Frank's presser... I am incapable of not wanting us to win. I will be going tomorrow to cheer us on with everything crossed. As usual. But, if it goes as badly as I fear, both result and performance, if the outcome is Frank gone, I'll take that.

Fuck Frank

Jacking up costs, surging unemployment, terrorizing communities, and millions spent gold-plating the Oval Office. Trump's year of historic accomplishments indeed.

In their current iteration it's very unusual for City to have a player as poor as Khusanov.

In case anyone hasn't got the email the ST window for Villa is open, it closes at 5pm today. At least it's 'only' £30... One upside of the crap football we're playing!

That VdV interview makes sacking Ange even more ridiculous 😑

The standard of refereeing at youth level is quite something. Guess it prepares the kids for what's to come...

Youth football, where your best players can do amazing things (lovely goal by Tynan Thompson) but your weakest links can really screw things up for you, particularly GKs... The outcome is the U18s are 3-2 down to Brighton at HT in the FA youth cup.

What can we reasonably expect from a manager 6 months in? Knows his best team ❌ We know what he's trying to do on the pitch ❌ Players & fans are behind him ❌ Things are improving from preseason ❌ We're enjoying watching ❌ Better points & performances than under the previous manager ❌ 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ 😢😢😢 😡😡😡

Usual Utd centric refereeing.

B'mth's keeper looks rubbish. Apart from that they're a decent watch. As we seemingly wanted PL experience for our next manager & were looking at mid table clubs why not pick one that played decent, Spurs type, football? Also Iraola is quite a bit younger which excuses a lack of top experience.

Look - remarkably we are only 6 points off 4th. We should make the CL playoff round. We have a home tie in the FA cup, albeit a tough one. The real possibility of turning the season round may disappear over the next few games. It 'really' feels to me like he who hesitates is lost. 🤞🤞🤞

arteta getting time at arsenal, while ignoring that he’s been backed with hundreds of millions of pounds, has broken vinai’s brain. and, lest someone remind him, ange won more in two seasons while getting served teenagers and fraser forster.

This has got me thinking. If you have zero background as a pro footballer, the further up the pyramid you go the harder it becomes to get the players' respect. I wonder how much this is becoming a 'losing the dressing room' issue. Whatever you think of him Mourinho has the CV that Frank lacks...

I first posted this 3 weeks ago. It seems an even better suggestion now. One I notice other people are starting to consider seriously.

Whatever else, do not let any players go in January because Frank doesn't want them. (If he's still the manager.) Guess Biss would be the only exception to that.

Excellent must read piece. I agree with almost all of it. This jury is most definitely no longer out tho. The verdict is clear, go, for the grace of god. Go.

I wrote yesterday that we can't know how the new leadership structure of the club will react to the terrible football we're seeing, as we don't know where the power lies. We also don't know what their intentions for the club are. I think we're being prepared for sale, 1/2

I'm not suggesting there's a right and wrong, but unlike many on here I'm more interested in making it work with the players we have, particularly developing youngsters, rather than looking at who else we can buy to upgrade/fix things. That makes the right manager even more important. Thus 😢😢😢

The nature of the table (below the top 3??) means our league season doesn't have to be dead. It can very quickly go south tho'. We still have a chance to turn it around. I only see one way things get better, leave it much longer and the possible upside will have gone.

We all thought, probably rightly, that we knew how Levy would react when things were going badly. We now have little idea who actually gets to make the big decisions, what their brief is & thus how they're likely to react to the current shit show. It's weird having little sense of what happens next.

The comparison between Solanke & DCL is an interesting one. They were both good youth players with Solanke arguably the more talented. As senior pros DCL moved way ahead of Solanke until injuries hit. Now the situation seems to have reversed, a fit DCL is a proper CF.

My dad used to take a Jewish expression, 'without children what would you do for aggravation' and repurpose it by replacing 'children' with 'Spurs'. Never has it seemed more apt.

Never a pen in a million years. Not that that means anything.

I don't really care which, but it would be great next weekend to go with either the Ange or Poch chant...

It's a natural reaction after such a dreadful performance to highlight how bad player X, who you don't particularly rate, was. Resist the temptation. They were all awful today. Ask yourself what the difference was between today and Bilbao? For anyone who doesn't get it, the answer is the manager.

One of those games where when on the rare occasion a player does something good, the next player can almost be guaranteed to fuck it up.

With Frank ATM it's like he's conditioned people to expect rubbish football, bad results and being polite, conservative selections. So everything being a tiny bit better is hailed as major progress. NO! We shouldn't be in this position and the bare acceptable minimum isn't cause for celebration.

Oh dear

A great night last night hosted by a great Spurs fan and friend (middle).

Talk about not learning from your mistakes... Oxford play awful football and were an awful destination for Scarlett's loan. A lot of clubs wanted Lankshear, which wasn't surprising, so where do we send him... To a club who were bound to struggle and play shit football. It's unforgivable.
