    Cann we make the top 4 or 5?

    The amount of crosses we concede from kind of makes sense to me, we are equally poor sending our own crosses in. It's probably fairly difficult to drill the team to defend from crosses when we don't have any specialist crossers of the ball other than Porro. So on the training pitch how how...

    BIG DECISIONS RE: PLAYERS - SOME SPECULATIVE FUN

    Liverpool have finished recent seasons with 97 even 92 points, it's a little disingenuous to say they should have won more. Against anyone else and they would have 2 more titles.

    I largely agree but I just don't think the source of our problems is players missing through injuries. Injuries happen they are never an excuse because it's the nature of all professional sports. Jota is their best finisher and they haven't missed him but that's not really my point. My only...

    Daniel Levy - Chairman

    But you're making excuses, "but we haven't had everyone fit" so what? No one ever does. You know as well as I do that isn't the way football works. The on paper qualities are irrelevant, the only thing that actually matters are the results and performances on the pitch. So saying we haven't had...

    Daniel Levy - Chairman

    You're making excuses no team ever has a fully fit first 11 available consistently. What demonstrates how good a side or squad is how they perform across the range of games. For us to be pretty damn good we haven't shown that in these 11 matches + cup games.

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    The margins are smaller with this style of football because it requires more expertise, more precision, more finesse to do it successfully. If you remember the term percentage football ie. The goofball it was called that because it doesn't live on a knife edge any semi competent footballer can...

    James Maddison

    Maybe he only got 8 minutes because Ange is aware of how poorly he's playing at the moment. There might have been no belief that bringing him was going to change anything and it didn't in the end.

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    This is why when there were those discussions in the summer about the squad I was so adamant that I didn't want Werner coming back (pointless player) and that we needed 2x starting wingers. I'm happy with the additions we did make, they were largely positive and I buy into them. Ange obviously...

    OMT *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR V IPSWICH TOWN *** Sun 10th Nov, 14:00 BST, The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

    Theres an angle from behind that they showed on the broadcast yesterday where you clearly see him head it away but the Ipswich attackers is right there and it spins up off of him.

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    I think it's to some degree fine margins but I think those margins are somewhat inherent with our playing style. The basic setup we have is one that equals high scoring games, but not necessarily only in our favour. If you regularly play relatively open high scoring games you're gonna win some...

    OMT *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR V IPSWICH TOWN *** Sun 10th Nov, 14:00 BST, The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

    Watch it again, it didn't bounce up. He headed it away but the Ipswich player who was challenging got in the way and it deflected up off that player..

    Brennan Johnson

    It's not necessarily a flip flop if you've always said the same thing. I don't rate our wide players, I didn't rate them last season and I don't rate them this season. No flip flopping from me.

    OMT *** TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR V IPSWICH TOWN *** Sun 10th Nov, 14:00 BST, The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium

    Yeah there was nothing wrong with Romero header but people have decided to pile on. He got to the ball first and headed it away, it deflected off Ipswich player and flew straight up in the air. Why he's getting the blame for that only those who want to criticise him know. 🤣 I think as a fan...

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Weird comparison you're making. Barcelona haven't lost 5 out of 11 and 2 of those at home. They lost a difficult game to Sociadad a top 8 side away from home. Are you expecting Barcelona to win every away game or something?

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    That's kind of my point that we typically play short and relatively safe so Johnson isn't even an outball option, something that suits his pace and relative lack of ball control, but Ange doesn't play to that strength of his. Instead we play slower more intricate stuff and then it gets to...

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    For me even if Odobert comes in and is the reincarnation of a 22 year old Son we still have a massive issue on the right. I appreciate that you don't see an issue with Johnson the way I do but a player who has so few touches and so little in game impact is a problem. He's a passenger, he...

    Radu Drăgușin

    I don't think VDV does either right now tbh. He's very good chasing balls down, but the more basic 1on1 defending versus an attacker he's been embarrassed a number of times. He's a young defender and will learn but he's not spotless at this point at all.

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Do I think his style can be successful? Broadly, yes. With the players he has and the players Spurs are likely to buy for him, no. I'm also concerned that he thinks a player like Johnson suits his system or that Son at this stage does either. Those are my two biggest bug bears. For the general...

    I don't even want him fired I just want the fans who for some reason can't acknowledge reality to get the heads out from the ground and realise that no, it's not all going swimmingly and to plan.

    You didn't just much, another poor performance. One we didn't dominate nor really create much in.
