    Bring back the fun!

    I miss Redknapp for this. He knew how to get the team playing with zip and verve, even if we weren't always that good. You never knew what you were gonna get, under AVB it all became so predictable.

    Arsenal Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    Quite a lot of good intent so far undone by one disastrous error.

    Arsenal Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    We should sub Bentaleb. He's been dreadful so far.

    Arsenal Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    When we have the ball there's no movement up front, all our players ball-watching. Arsenal do deadly counters so I can see the fear in pushing forward but as a result we just play the ball around, lose it anyway and they counter. This time they just happened to score unlike the other times that...

    Huddlestone

    The Hudd was my favourite player when I first started supporting spurs back in '06 and was on my first (and homestly still only) spurs shirt (with mansion as sponsor). I was devastated when we sold him this year but I understood why, even though my dream was to build the team around him and I...

    Spurs face player revolt if AVB appointed

    It's more that by not ignoring him you just keep the thread bumped. If an old thread bothers you so much just contribute to a new thread and ignore the old one. Now you're just making it more popular.

    Making of the ''INDIAN YIDDOS''

    I am currently living in India. In the past few months, I have met 9 Spurs supporters, one Everton fan, and a smattering of United fans. Spurs are very much in the ascendancy. Personally I'm a diplobrat who has lived in 6 different countries, and the support of Spurs among the expat and...

    Roberto Soldado Starved

    Completely agree. It seems AVB is asking Soldado to play as a link-up/support striker, constantly with his back to goal, than as the poacher that he is. We need to start playing more through-balls than playing to the wings and putting in ineffectual crosses. Neither Soldado nor Defoe have the...

    v Everton: Ratings

    Vertonghen was great all game, Sandro, Walker and Townsend had a good first half and faded in the second. Lennon anonymous, Soldado too static and not involved, Paulinho quiet. Imo we should've started Dembele and Eriksen for Paulinho and Lennon. I also disagree with the subs. Sandro shouldn't...

    Everton Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    I'm shitting bricks. This is such a big game that imo will reflect how the rest of the season will pan out. I consider Everton to be similar to us in terms of history and aspirations, the only away game I ever went to was at Goodison Park, and they've started the season well.

    player of the year

    Ibra for me, in the form of his life atm and one of the most unique strikers of our generation. He's not better than Messi and Ronaldo, and frankly Ronaldo should win it this time as he truly deserves it, but at 32 Ibra may have peaked now while I still see a lot more from Ronaldo, and greater...
