Unfortunately, this isn’t true.

We are obliged to support master Sissoko due to being pathologal Spurs fans, however, if you were to ask any other non-Spurs affiliated football viewer, they would press you on how laborious Moussa is. Is this rival envy? Doubtful.

Of course we all support him when picked, however, let’s not dress up the fact he is an incredibly limited footballer who adds very little of value. Just because Poch picks him, doesn’t make him immune to criticism.

I can’t wait until the day he’s sold.

Who are you refering to as ‘all’? Is shouting abuses at him during a game a form of support?

With a fully fit squad available, there is no chance he gets any game time today and he could even miss out on the squad.

Dear Eric Underscore S,

Another user has posted the following but is unsure if he's on your ignore list:


Kind regards,
Interloping Mofo

He seems to be ignoring you too..... he’s now seen it 3 times and has since replied to others but not this. I’m intrigued as to why he won’t expand on what he said, I think he was hoping nobody would pick up on it.

I am sure posting in this thread means some others have seen my post if I am not on their ignore list.
The only thing I fear is wasting my time replying you. Its kind of like talking to a wall.
Please do not mistaken it as me backing away from debates because I have nothing substantial to offer. I simply have more important roles in life to fulfil and cannot be bothered with how you percieve me.

You are the biggest cop out on this forum and you know it.

I think we all know what you were getting at with your post and you’re too much of a coward to carry it on.

This will be my last reply to you. For people like you who resort to insulting others because you are on a forum, you do not deserve the respect that you crave.
What I may or may not be getting at, is a personnal opinion. I always thought UK is a place where people are free to express their opinions. For your information the ratings available is also a form of expressing an opinion, like ‘disagree’ ‘like’ ‘spam’. If you cannot handle getting negative ratings that are not accompanied by a thesis to explain, then perhaps forum is not a place for you.

Ok, last reply to you too and that’s it.

It’s bad enough that you haven’t got the capabilities to discuss any point online (which means you only give neg ratings to everyone who doesn’t like Sissoko without ever explaining why) but in this instance, you’ve posted something and all I’ve done was ask you to expand and, despite several attempts, the only reply from you as always is to insult me and avoid the point.

I believe your post very much suggested that the Spurs fans who don’t like Sissoko are racist. Or they don’t like African players. And I’ll keep believing that point because, guess what, YOU WON’T EXPAND! And still refuse to. I and others will take massive offence to that pathetic play of the race card and I don’t want to continue chatting with someone who has thoughts like you do. At least others who rate Sissoko and value his worth explain why they do, even if I don’t agree with them. You simply can’t.

Lol at suggesting that a forum is better filled with people who are happier to hit a button as opposed to explaining what they mean. But it does sum you up.

That’s all I’ll say on the matter and I apologise to others for repeating myself to the same people. It gets boring for me too!

It’s going to have to be a special player to replace him, we are struggling to fit the 22 into 11 spaces already and he does offer flexibility and drive.

If we can find a combination of him, Winks and Dembele in a midfielder or we get a bid offer then sell him if not why get rid of he is not making a fuss

I used to be in a band. I wasn’t very good but my band mates were. Self-awareness made me quit the band for the greater good even though I enjoyed being in a band. So I have nothing against Sissoko, I also found myself out of my depth. I just think he could quit being a professional footballer and play for West Ham or something. For the greater good.

I agree with those that say the perennial Sissoko bashing is tiring. But, let's be honest here, he's an awful player. One of, if not the worst i've seen in my 30 years of supporting spurs. He actually makes football look difficult, I find him uncomfortable to watch, to the point I actually feel sorry for the guy, such is his complete lack of ability. He is the only player I can remember watching who actually makes me laugh out loud in despair at his ineptness.

So yes, I don't feel the need to constantly cane the guy but i really struggle with the concept that anyone can deem him anything other than a complete liability.
Brilliantly said, Justin. I wish I could "winner" this post multiple times. Couldn't agree more.

I'm not a massive fan of Sissoko. Wasn't before he signed for us. Having said that he was fantastic for France at the Euros, so we know there is a good player in there somewhere.

The issue I have is that when he plays, he seems to make others around him nervous or look worse, quite often he lays the ball off too quick and plays it into someone who has opposition around them. Perhaps he is too nervous to show his true capabilities because of the reaction he gets. I dunno, just something doesn't seem right with him. His first touch is awful as well, he tends to need 3 touches to get a pass/cross/shot away.

I think he is an ok option on the bench for games where we need to inject some energy but I just think he has zero confidence at the club.
Spot on! Would be interesting to se a compilation of other players when they are close to him with the ball.One get the feeling that they are looking for other alternatives.

Always come in the Sissoko thread for lols. Never disappoints.

Personally I enjoy watching him play. (For the lols)

I like how he always looks industrious; lots of huffing and puffing, yet most of his game is just playing simple lay offs.

Reminiscent of a Barry. The big CB that plays for the Dog and Handgun Sunday League pub team. A few lay offs with puffed out cheeks and plenty of exhalation after every pass, and some mild 'staying on your toes' when the ball is in the vicinity and then coming off at half time saying "keep it up fellas! Playing well!" As if to insinuate the 363 metres he has covered in the first 45 minutes is totally pro... rofl
