Pretty sure we tried to tell them the home games didn't go to well end of last year but they wouldn't have it hehe
Where is the oracle smarty anyway
I wonder if spurs summer and years of not paying top fees or salaries has caught up with them. They got so close to the champions League and didn't turn up. Erikson's comments wont have helped and he won't have been the only one considering a new change. I also think Kane will be gutted for his ego that no one has talked about him moving on either.

Add in Loch's comments that he may have left if they'd won it then you have this weird scenario where your manager stayed because he lost a final.

Given how they nearly missed out on fourth last year I think they really need a big first half of the season so that when CL gets busy them losing points in the league doesn't become a major issue.

Have the Spurs lot gone into hibernation? They are usually crowing in here about our lot being lucky, net spends and our bang average forward. Should we be concerned for their welfare?

Nah I'm sure they're fine, probably just staying out of our "circle jerk" until we lose wink

However, if they lose the North London Derby next Sunday they're in crisis. Make no mistake.

Don’t worry. They are over there whinging about Kane tripping over the defender wasn’t a penalty and it would have been if it was Salah

It was one of those where I can see why it wasn’t given (arguably a mutual coming together) but I would have been annoyed if my team didn’t get it.

As with MOTD it want a clear and obvious error so I can see why VAR didn’t overturn it

funny the argument that Kane move to contact but not mentioned when that Everton kid did it to lovren. Var changing punditry.

I can’t translate that into English I’m afraid, I think you are referring to Calvert-Lewis throwing himself to the ground when Lovren naively tickled his back, I don’t think Kane dived

Nah they had a reasonable finish to the end of the season. Just that minor blip in June wasn't it?
Not really, they won 3 and drew 2 of their last 12 league games. And, although they got to the ECL final, they'd lost legs to City and Ajax on the way.

Kane moved towards the player forcing the contact. In a very similar way to Calvert Lewin (not leiws) did at Anfield. Both took a step away from the ball to encourage contact. That seemed to be an argument the pundits were making against it being a pen for Kane yesterday.

The fact it wasnt given, and Var reviewed it, led the pundits to consider things they would not have in the past.

Really? was it that bad? Was Ole at the wheel or something?

Doesn't sound like the record of Poch, the most sought after coach (not manager) in the world?

Poch, Kane and Erikson talked about as if every club in the world would want them, yet no one move for any of them yet this summer. The media spurs love in is mad. They are a good side. They have some great players, but the way the media talk about them, you'd think they'd achieved what City had without the money

It's genuine relegation form from both Spurs and Utd. Spurs PPG is 0.92 over those 12 games, over 38 games that's ~35 points.
