    **** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Canning Town Bingo Club ****

    I guess you have to look to balance out the games earlier in the season that we won with perhaps an equal element of luck about them - Man C particulalry springs to mind but judging luck is subjective at best. I think, overall, my conclusion is that we were never as good as the league table...

    **** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Canning Town Bingo Club ****

    A lot to agree with here....over the space of the last 5 games (after the turgid and insipid performances and losses to Brighton, Liverpool and Chelsea) we have at least started to play better and more on the front foot - playing a back 4 with Hojbjerg and Ndombele as a pivot - is definitely a...

    **** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Canning Town Bingo Club ****

    This has always been a dramatic fixture and i'm sure the neutrals must look forward to it far more than some of the conventional 'enthralling fixtures' notably the Liverpool Saudi Sportswashing Machine narrative Sky can't get enough of but hasn't produced anything exciting for over 20 years. Been plenty of late...

    **** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Canning Town Bingo Club ****

    Despite the optimism of Thursday night and the hope that Dele and/or Bale may be ready to make a contribution alongside Kane and Sonny I genuinely have no idea whether we'll turn up and make our undoubted superiority count or whether we'll never get out of second gear and perform like we did...

    Tottenham vs Wolfsberger OMT

    Makes you wonder why couldn't we own all the previous games like we did tonight....that was exactly how you should deal with an away Europa game - get on the front foot from kick off and make your superiority count. I'd guess a lack of a (very) partizan home crowd and the fact that Wolfsberger...

    Tottenham vs Wolfsberger OMT

    No images of Kane training yesterday on the OS either. I reckon Son and Hojbjerg on the bench with Ndomebele to start. As has already been discussed tonight is not the be all and end all - we have next week at home as a safety net. Its so frustrating that the second string Europa/Cup team...

    Tottenham vs Wolfsberger OMT

    Before everyone (including me) loses their brick when we succumb to a late equaliser in what will be a very underwhelming performance its worth remembering how generally uninspiring all our Europa away performances have been over the last decade where we've been in very different motivations and...

    Next Manager?

    Just thinking, in a more general sense, do you think all managers/coaches become entrenched with a very specific tactic or style? or can we become guilty of applying confirmation bias and getting stuck with a particular narrative. Of all the attributes an individual has I'd think that specific...

    Jose Mourinho - SACKED

    I really don't think Levy is this love drunk teenager totally in awe of Mourinho as some suggest. Levy has always made big calls to sack managers when he feels that they cant take us forwards anymore and/or that they are now a negative force. I also don't believe Levy will keep Mourinho on just...

    Jose Mourinho - SACKED

    I feel that increasingly whilst trying to play devil's advocate I'm offering mitigation for Jose rather than an outright defence of criticism against him.

    Squad not good enough...or unable to play a different style?

    I've done some similar analysis: The average age of the squad is now 26.8 - at the start of the 2017/8 season it was 25.6. I actually thought the discrepancy would be bigger. However, it's not really the age that is significant it is the collection of players who are either well past their peak...

    OOMT - Tottenham vs Emirates Marketing Project

    I've always been of the opinion that the FAC SF defeat to Man U in 2018 was the first chink in the armour under Poch - coming 6 weeks after we lost somewhat heroically to Juventus - I felt the players lost a bit of faith and began to think it was never going to happen in a big game. I know the...

    Jose Mourinho - SACKED

    I must say that Jose's demeanour (publicly with the press at least) seem to suggest that he is a long way from the palpable toxicity on display in his final days with Chelsea and Man U so I have to disagree with the narratives being spun that its groundhog day for him. However, I also...

    OOMT - Tottenham vs Emirates Marketing Project

    Ok. I'm prepared to give a 'free pass' for last night. There was very little positive to take but no new negatives - kind of the exact opposite from West Brom last week. The result was more about the brilliance of City than anything about us. Over the course of the last half a dozen games...

    Next Manager?

    Yep this is definitely one of those intangibles its hard to quantify - Poch also had the issue that his profile and reputation was nothing like it was by the time he left - you've listed some high profile players who I imagine had dominant personalities. There are actually many similarities -...

    Next Manager?

    Ultimately he did fix it and relatively quickly if you consider the progress we made from Spring 2014 over an 18 month period through to Autumn of 2015. However, that's easier to reflect on in hindsight and its often easy to forget that there were some really painful moments in Poch's first...
