They've been fucking lucky and played one decent team.You can't not see the progress the've made. They have a realistic chance at the CL, whereas we're sweating the FA Cup.

Normally I don't like to diss this team, as we are a fucking decent outfit, but fuck me, I am severely deflated after that fucking disgrace of a performance. Like, I'm not even angry, or sad, just totally fucking ambivalent, and kinda wondering why I waste so much of my time worrying about football results. Like, if I don't watch, there's nothing to be disappointed by... World keeps on turning etc...
But fucking hell, we have been a treat to watch over the last three seasons, and I kinda feel like our purple patch is coming to an end.
And I can't imagine it ever being as good again.
Like, last seasons team was the Spurs benchmark for me. I think our signings have been largely ineffective, we still lose our best players, and I can't help but feel that the seams are just starting to look a little frayed...
I guess we'll see what sort of performance we get on Saturday. Anything less than 100%, and I'll basically switch off for the rest of the season and see what hilarity ensues in the summer....
How on earth you pick out Sissoko as the target for your venting I'll never know. He had one of the highest pass completions on the team. Or are you just lashing out at an easy target?
I wouldn't take much notice, half of them only turn up when we don't get a result, the rest of the time when we're winning there isn't a peep from them.Some comical comments in here tonight
Come back on Saturday, it’s going to be a blockbusterSome comical comments in here tonight
If he doesn't give a damn about the FA cup then why has he rotated and rested players tonight?
I don't think for one second the players think it's secure, they will remember our collapse in 2016. It's possible that they have one eye on the game on Saturday.
That midfield that started today is the problem for me. Neither Sissoko or Wanyama can dictate play, neither can drive the team on, and neither will ever inspire. We needed better against a team that is fighting to stay in the league. You need intelligent and quick-thinking players and when Eriksen is off form we suffer.
Dembele had about 20 minutes to alter the game, which he's never done as a sub before. He's always at his best when starting because he gets control of the game, which allows us to get our rhythm easier. But what do you do play Dembele tonight and leave him out of the semi??
Poch had to pick that team tonight because we can't afford any big injuries going into the semi. I'm sure we will raise our levels again.
Dear god... really? Kane? You’re suggesting this about Harry Kane?I do wonder if Kane has one eye on the World cup and does not want to get injured again.
True, but you make your luck too.They've been fucking lucky and played one decent team.
WELL THANK YOU VERY MUCHThe season we finished 3rd...

And how quick we are to turn on a team that has given us so much in the last two years.
These match day threads are poison. Behaviour
There’s not much point being measured. People want to vent. Feel entitled to vent. It’s the way things are now.
Hopefully the negativity and poison doesn’t filter through to the club. We are supposed to be supporters.
If we went out the cup sure, but it would be forgotten about in a week or two.
No champs league next season because the wheels come off because we lose momentum.. that will be a kicker all next year.

We as fans are fully entitled to vent against our team if we have high expectations of them. Its easy for the happy fucking clappers to invade the thread with their high horse bollocks. If we lose 4th it'll be a disaster...will you then say its all fine?And how quick we are to turn on a team that has given us so much in the last two years.

I'm so fucking vexed!! In the last two games, our final third play has been so atrocious. I was surprised when Lamela's shot was on target.
My last 20 negative reps have been for saying precisely this.
Kane has been really poor in the last 5-6 games he's been in. Time to open your eyes people.
Cue the two golden boots quotes.
