Well, we go again next year. Hopefully, with players with a brain.

It's funny for all their pressure, we have given Liverpool both their goals.

We won the ball from Van Dijk there, had space & our 3 midfielders made 1-yard passes between them to allow Liverpool to get back. Get Lucas on man, for any of the 3. Terrible performance.

I can promise you the referee would've stopped the game had Salah gone down with Spurs attacking instead of Richy going down with Pool attacking.

kids.

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been! with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

There has been absolutely 0 training content from Spurs before the match. Are we expecting a surprise return?

Imo, now that he can, Ange will go with experience tonight in the starting XI. So, no Archie or Lucas. Defense picks itself. This would be my pick after it: Bentancur-Bissouma-Deki Tel-Richy-Son

Meanwhile, Modric continues to do his usual GOAT things.

So glad to see everyone is seeing & speaking Saliba's "masterclass" today. He makes so many errors generally, which everyone seems to ignore because of his image.

This weekly series on Instagram from Spurs admin is so lovely.

Micky van de Ven has played 14 mins in the Carabao Cup this season. Yes, he's a vital player and makes us better & so are Cuti, Solanke, etc. But Davies, Gray, etc. have stepped up when needed. We also have Danso now. We have the lead. It's still possible. Believe.

Kevin Danso & Mathys Tel are available for Tottenham's Carabao Cup semi-final second leg vs. Liverpool — but Micky van de Ven will miss the trip to Anfield. "(Van de Ven) hasn’t reinjured the injury. I think we feel and he feels we need to get more into him." - Ange Postecoglou.

Man, this is really sad. He's really shown some great dedication in these tough times for us. Hope he has a good and speedy recovery. 🤍

I'm really so desperate for us to beat Liverpool and United. It obviously gives us a final & three points, respectively, but I really want to see the faces of some of these "pundits" during post-match segments.

Spurs coach Ange Postecoglou had a long conversation with Mathys Tel to present his project and how he's going to use him. Tel changed his mind after the conversation and decided to join Tottenham

No option in the Tel deal appears to me they couldn't find a better alternative who'll join immediately. I'm hoping this would also mean that they have sorted Dibling for the summer.

I sometimes think some pundits fucking hate football. There’s no enthusiasm or love for what they’re covering. It feels like they want to crush any fan joy too.

Bundesliga incoming. 🤞

One hugely underrated aspect of our cup form vs league form is an extra day. We almost always get over 3 days for cup games & just 2 for PL. May not sound that big but as anyone who's participated in a physical activity can tell you, it can make a massive difference w.r.t recovery.

3 of our big wins this season w.r.t context & also, grinding out a result & showing character have each required a goal-line clearance. - Davies against Coventry. - Dragusin against Liverpool. - Spence against Brentford.

- Celebrating a rapist. - Celebrating a goal by a player who shouldn't have been playing this game. He's only playing 'coz they went into a catastrophic meltdown. That's Arsenal and its fans in a nutshell.

Why is Andy Townsend so desperate for Richarlison to get booked/sent off today?

How difficult it is just wait half an hour for Ange to speak about the team selection before a match before spreading rumors about their fitness? It's insane!

I couldn't see the match here but seems like Yang had a really bright debut for QPR. Will do wonders for his confidence!

Watch media hail Bournemouth for "pushing" Liverpool while Spurs got no credit for actually beating them.

Sensing a big win for Spurs tomorrow. Why do I do this to myself? 🥲

If you told me before the window, we didn't sign Tomori, Tel or Kolo Muani, I would've been fine with it. Even encouraged. However, the way we're getting embarrassed out here is the real issue for me. Whatever happened to the common practice of agreeing on personal terms first?

I REALLY don’t want Garnacho

The transfer window is low-key annoying. Just get me to 4th and tell us who have we signed. Thanks.

You know what, bring Rashford in and show Tel in 2 weeks' time how wrong his decision was.

Except once in August (Colchester & Southampton), Brentford haven't had back-to-back wins this season. They won their last match 2-1 against Crystal Palace.

It's only apt that all of them will return after 2 of our most important games back to back.

As much as we want Tel, does having to wait this long goes against Ange's thing of a player fully wanting to join Spurs? I understand he's a high-profile player & has plenty of options. However, it does kinda seem like he's waiting for any other option than us.

Still buzzing from yesterday!

20-year-old Dane Scarlett, 19-year-old Damola Ajayi and 17-year-old Mikey Moore have all scored their first senior goal for Tottenham Hotspur in the same game. A much-needed shot in the arm for the club, provided by an incredible night for the academy. Trust in your own.

This genuinely might be the best game since that night in Amsterdam. Might heart is so full! 🥹🤍 We so needed that.

It could also be Brandon Austin's last game in a Spurs shirt.

DEJAN KULUSEVSKI IS GETTING SOME REST!

One thing is that Spurs offering that big an amount to Bayern might convince Tel that he'll definitely get loads of playing time here. But until he's holding that shirt, I'll still fear Arsenal and United and even Chelsea.

The last time an attacker had to make a choice, he chose Juventus, of all places, over us. Tel brother, please! Get this man on a conference call with Ange, Odobert & Kane.

It's lifting of the Mathys Tel suspense day. Oh, and we also have a match or something.

Jhon Duran going to Al-Nassr seems to be such a waste man. I guess this is the reality now and we have to accept it.

Just get me to February 4 and tell me who all we've signed man.

Oh So spurs interviewed former Tottenham fitness coach Anton McElhone who worked with Mauricio Pochettino at Spurs, before moving onto become head of Sports science for Ange Postecoglou at Celtic. Worth a watch & some good sound bites into an insight to Ange postecoglou 👇 youtu.be/s1dUkkk2ynI?...

Essential Richarlison content:

Deki on why Ange is the right manager. “We play for him, we went to play for him — I have to fight for him cos I believe in that football too so he is (the right manager)”

Deki talking is so refreshing for some reason. Honest, committed and full of belief. His quotes from today are just amazing to read & watch.

We're getting some positive news today. I wonder by how much are we going to lose tomorrow.

Postecoglou says van de Ven to return against Elfsborg tomorrow: "Micky's good to go so we'll try to get him some match minutes tomorrow, see how much we can get out of him. He's had a good week, 10 days training with the team in a good condition." But Maddison out for 2-3 weeks with calf strain.
