Thanks for this - spent a good half hour reading through it starting from the end of last season and eventually I had to sit with a bucket next to me as I kept spitting my drinks out all over my keyboard after reading some of the comments on there.
The fact that bar one freak season we have finished above them every year since 2009 and currently have 6 points and 20 goals better GD over them seems to count for nothing. We are plucky little Tottenham with a mid-table squad that has luckily got a good manager who has us punching above our weight, but as soon as they get their star players back they'll overtake us again.
When Danny Murphy said that only two or three Liverpool players would get into our side the place went nuts. Henderson is apparently the most complete central midfielder at either club, if not the league. Despite the fact that he's been arguably our most consistent player this season, Dier is just an average, out of position CB feebly trying to plug a hole. Forget the fact that he's shat all over Toure, Cazorla, Ozil, Wanyama, Barkley and...well pretty much everyone he's come up against this season, Alli is just another overhyped English player riding off the back of a goal against France in a friendly. Lloris being better than Mignolet is the only reason our defence is the best in the league and they've conceded more than Watford and West Ham, clearly Sakho, Clyne and Moreno would start for us. It's also pretty much a given that Coutinho would be our best player, even though he has been outperformed by Eriksen in pretty much every measurable parameter since they've both been in England bar goals scored in the previous half season - I mean forget consistency and end product, would much rather have someone who can score three 30 yard screamers a season over that.
Looks like anybody who doesn't tow the company line on that board gets banned as well pretty quickly. Weird cult.
