    This thread reinforces what an unforgiving position goalkeeper is. Sullivan (I believe he won Spurs player of the year one time) and Gomes had periods of brilliance. But both of them lost confidence and consistency. If you saw them in the latter periods you would label them hopeless, but in the...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    I stand corrected -- he won 2 player of the year awards: In 1973 the Football Writers' Association named him as its footballer of the year. Three years later he won PFA's version of the award – he was the first goalkeeper to receive this accolade, and until 2025 remains only one of two, along...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Hard to see him ever being surpassed. How many goalkeepers would be in contention for player of the year, let alone win it? In The Glory Game (a must read for all Spurs fans) the author interviewed a Leeds scout that had been sent to write a report on Spurs ahead of an upcoming game. He...

    I think your point has validity but Nico Claesen is not a good example. According to one summary of his Spurs career, his issues came about from the switch to a 5 man midfield -- https://www.sporting-heroes.net/football/tottenham-hotspur-fc/nico-claesen-9257/biography-of-his-spurs-career_a11185/...

    Next on his redemption arc is Villa Park where he was criticised for letting in an early goal in the FA Cup

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    You have to credit RDZ, leaving no stone unturned to get improvement. Apparently spoon feeding his ideas to Muani: I want to be positive, Mathys Tel played 45 minutes very well. At the beginning of the first half also Kolo Muani started very well the game and then he lost I don’t know...

    Is it just me or are we a much taller team than them?

    Notable that RDZ has gone with experience in the last 2 games and is changing as little a as possible. Different from Igor’s desperate chopping and changing.

    His history indicates there is a top level player in there. We have seen a (very few) glimpses of what he has done in the past. The only way to trigger his apparent high ceiling is to play him and pray it eventually clicks. It has not to date and maybe he falls in the category of players that...

    I remember when the coach (Francis?) did that to Iverson and he scored a hat-trick in his next game!

    Ultimately, Nottingham always looked like a team in a false position based on the early part of the season. Glad I cashed out the relegation bet I had which I made when Ange was rumoured and cashed out just before he was sacked.

    +++ OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Sunderland 12th April 2026 +++

    Certainly appears to be a line up that suggests we may go very direct. Despite bigging up Tel in his press conference, no winger at all. Have to hope that his approach is based on a plan for this specific opponent and/or with knowledge we do not have regarding fitness or form of the benched...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur Football Club v Nottingham Forest***

    From his background, it appears that the one non-negotiable with Igor is the running. So they say he dropped Payet in Marseille despite him being their best player because he was lazy. Against a Forest team that may defend deep and look to hit on the break, I wonder if he is reluctant to lose...

    Dejan Kulusevski

    While there has been specific timeline for the striker’s return to action, comments from Potter suggest it may not be too long before Isak - and Kulusevski - are back playing again. “I hope they (Isak and Dejan Kulusevski) can play, but these are big injuries,” Potter said, via Fotboll Direkt...

    Best ever Tottenham debuts?

    Yep, he was all downhill from his debut. Ian Moores also scored a hat trick in that game.

    Best ever Tottenham debuts?

    Colin Lee. 4 goals on his debut vs Bristol.

    Ange departs

    You never stop learning. I get that we are all euphoric at a trophy. But I find it incomprehensible that an apparently large number of supporters are now suffering from amnesia. I have watched every game for the last two years. I do not see how anyone looking at our performances can see a...
