    Dele Alli at Everton

    With the question having been asked, yes I would have him at Spurs on a free (pending an Ange chat). there are HG and CT supporting factors. I suspect we are selling Skipp, Spence, Rodon probably others. Presumably that has some impact. but realistically I’m just a fan. I love that guy. He’s...

    Tottenham under pressure to abandon £320m deal

    Presumably they have written to Liverpool as well given Standard Chartered are in the exact same boat as AIA?

    Christian Eriksen

    It’s such an obvious win, and a lovely supportive thing. Where today’s bullshit from the Arse is peak cynicism, Spurs helping him back is - Shirley - too lovely to pass up. There won’t be a dry eye in the house and rightly so. I hope we get him.

    Eric Dier

    We are becoming a Millwall. There are enough fans behaving in a bad way that we are becoming some kind of poster child for ignorance and abuse. I haven’t ever felt ashamed to support Spurs but take Auba, Rudiger and now our own players together and we have a genuinely horrible situation in the...

    We need better songs

    I like the nostalgia of the Son song, but I agree there is so much to work with here given his cult status. After his successful avoidance of military service, I’m surprised we don’t sing “he’s from Seoul but he’a not a soldier” for one. Equally, and aware that one should walk this line...

    We need better songs

    Why have we changed from the Star Wars entrance to cant smile without you? There’s more than enough pathos in the club already. I hope that was a one off as it was naff.

    Spurs must improve to be title contenders - Pochettino

    Yesterday was very poor. It exposed the crisis we’ve had almost all season in central midfield. Dier/Sissoko/Winks/Eriksen have performed incredibly to hold the line thus far but we hit the wall yesterday. I’m sure we’ll bounce back, Pochettino is the man, but we could really do with a top class...

    A wise piece about pace

    This piece is basically saying why aren't we trying to buy Mahrez, which is a good point, but it requires us accepting Lamela will not become as good as Mahrez. And therefore requires us writing of Lamela which I'd be surprised if we did, even if it appears he may be unable, or disinterested, to...

    United drubbing a brutal reality check for Pochettino's work in progress side

    I have no problem with where we are to be honest. The logical thing for us to do, given our comparative position to the establishment, is to take a long-term player development view. AVB/TS/MP are all attempts to do this in a way, and MP appears to have had the most success with it. It is a...

    And it's goodbye from nobody in particular, just another disillusioned fan

    I don't think our business model has changed, nor could change, unless we drastically increased our income and/or our reputation. Since the dark days of the 90s, and essentially since Sol, we have developed a system of bringing in prospects, trying to succeed with them, and then selling them if...

    This summer is looking grim

    We are in a weird position. We never managed to solidify a top four jump, and so we are back where we were under Jol but with a stronger top five above us given City's 'emergence'. The past year seems to tell us a number of things, some of which are: 1) Rodgers and Martinez prove that a team...

    Self-fulfilling prophecy - a winning mentality is everything.

    I think it is quite telling how Liverpool reacted to being in the unexpected position of potential title-fighting and responded as a crowd by roaring the team on and singing about winning the league. As I recall when we flattered to deceive in such regard a couple of years back, we all (myself...
