    Lucas Bergvall

    I was thinking seriously of giving up my ST, but Bergvall is about the top reason for keeping it. Bergvall, Spence, Gray, Kulu, VDV, even Bentancur- they are my reasons to renew.

    OMT - Tottenham Hotspur vs Eintracht Frankfurt

    What I find frustrating is that at times last night we looked pretty close to being a good team. Which leads me to think another manager might be able to achieve more, not least with making the subs with sufficient time to influence the game. But how we could do with a "Son replacement", a...

    OMT - Tottenham Hotspur vs Eintracht Frankfurt

    As I'm sure others have said, how did Brennan miss that? Annoyed with Ange delaying the subs, we needed them 20 minutes earlier, and i suspect it would have been a very different story. Not too shabby a performance but we lack a cutting edge, how we could use a proper striker playing off Solanke.

    Ange in or out?

    If I met conte right now I would shake his hand for telling the truth. No ifs or buts about it. Except he didn't. He wanted to get back to Italy and took the cowards way out, blowing up after an away draw (was it at Southampton) where the ref gifted them a goal. He was probably clever in not...

    Europa

    Nothing to do with the thread, but it will be interesting to see what a half-decent manager could do with our team. We do gift chances to the opposition for fun. Was it Santini who forbade the full-backs to enter the opposition half? Not saying we should go that far, but a defence whose primary...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    When I'm at the Lane, I'm Mr Positive. Don't abuse players, don't abuse Levy and so far haven't done anything except support, But if we lose today I think we would be justified in singing "Fat Aussie clown shoe, you're just a...", which hasn't been heard since being aimed at Mark Viduka years ago...

    Ange in or out?

    I think with a good manager and a couple of decent signings we have a top four side in the wings. First to be upgraded should be Sonny and Maddison, which won't be cheap but is essential.

    Spurs vs Southampton, the OMT no-one wants to start

    Hmmn, wondering about the age of your daughter, made me wonder where Chirpy has gone? When my lad started going, seeing the mascot was probably the highlight of the game....maybe that's why the club's mojo has gone awol, Chirpy's absence...??

    Spurs vs Southampton, the OMT no-one wants to start

    Our home form since losing to Ipswich in November is truly awful. We beat United but lost 6 and drew 3 of the other home fixtures in the last 10. But before that we beat Brentford, West Ham and Villa. So what were we doing right when we beat these teams. How can we get our mojo back??

    Spurs vs Southampton, the OMT no-one wants to start

    So, Spurs against Southampton at WHL, Sunday 6 April at 2.00pm, no OMT as yet. No Tom Jones, no custard, have the OMT Gods deserted us? Will the men in white shirts simply collapse or will they produce a stirring second half fightback to claim a draw? Or will we see a miracle, an organised...

    The Official 2024/25 Premier League Thread

    Does anyone here take an interest in Notts Forest? I'd love to know what they are doing so well. Is it that they've got a great defence, are super organised? Having an old fashioned centre forward? Or is it all down to a manager who wasn't good enough for us?

    Ange in or out?

    The reason that Ange hasn't been sacked is simple: the Board got feedback that the Tottenham manager's job was no longer seen as desirable, given that managers of the calibre of Mourinho and Conte were judged to have failed and were fired. The Board are trying to do what they can to support the...

    Ange in or out?

    Before the game I said that I hoped we would see defensive organisation, but yet again the opposition score what looks like a free header in our box. Our centre backs never seem to know who to mark or how to mark.

    Ange in or out?

    If we lose on Sunday, I will certainly be singing "you don't know what you're doing" at Ange. Football can be cruel but it is a results business, and this combination of manager and players is dreadful. If Son or Maddison are poor - don't pick them, etc etc etc

    OMT: Spurs v Chelsea Thursday, 8pm at Stamford Bridge

    No idea how many we will lose by tomorrow, but wouldn't it be a refreshing change to have some defensive solidity? Is that too much to ask?
