I fully expect to get slated for this and to be honest I don't really care as it is only a message board.
This site is becoming frankly ridiculous. It seems that the vast majority of posters have no sense of realism.
Depending upon a result we either lurch from we're going to win the Champions League/push for the Premiership title to we're rubbish/Harry doesn't know what he is doing/the team is shit.
This morning this link appears: Was signing VdV good for us?
Has everyone forgotten just how much for years we yearned for a player like VDV who has scored 7 in 6 home games?
Defending .. simply not top 4 record
We've always been shit at defending. We have always had to outscore the opposition because that the the "Tottenham way". We're also missing two, yes two, England International central defenders.
This isn't a knee jerk thread...But! This is about Bale being sussed out. FFS, last week everyone was shitting themselves that we'd loose him and how would we simply cope with life without Monkey boy. Now 7 days later we're saying how people have sussed him etc etc. He's 21. He's in real terms only just hitting his form. He'll develop, he'll get even better.
I'm not attacking the above threads directly, more the general feel. It just seems that there is a severe lack of perspective here these days. You don't even need to come on this site to know what threads there will be after a result. If its a good win, everyone is a world beater and we're scared Fergie will buy the team. If we loose we're all shit and need to spend.
Can we just fucking relax please and wait until our strongest team is back together i.e. the end of the month and then see how we do before we start looking for the life jackets and abandoning ship.
