    Southampton Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    That's what confidence can do to a player. Bentalib was brimming with confidence. He knows he has to make his chance count, and he did. Well played. We have players with much more quality than Bentalib (no offense) but they're lacking confidence hence they always try to shift the ball...

    Southampton Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    I agree. I'm quite excited myself. I can clearly understand why Sherwood has put such an offensive team up, it's because Southampton has the best defence record this season. So if we were to score, we need to be offensive. I hope we can keep hold of the possession more than them, and peg them...

    The case for Tim Sherwood

    By progressive, I've interpreted as playing smart football. Making the right decision for every pass, move, cross etc. You're right, he's not perfectly clear, nor that he'll reveal his tactics before facing the Saints. What we played before under AVB wasn't progressive football. AVB played...

    Southampton Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    Well, going to be an interesting match tomorrow. We generally play better away, but we're zapped out of confidence ATM. Also, it's funny how our sold or loaned players are performing well. Perhaps there's a voodoo at Spurs (or just tactics). Any player joins us seem to underperform, but when...

    The case for Tim Sherwood

    I completely agree. We've a strong squad, we're not in a bad position in the league too. A win for Sherwood can instill a lot of confidence into the team, and also is what we need right now. Slowly integrate Sherwood's philosophy into the Spurs team - which is the progressive Spurs style we're...

    The case for Tim Sherwood

    I mentioned earlier. Give him a chance. ATM all managers linked has dismissed to join us - despite them being flattered. If Sherwood can turn Spurs season around, I can care less if he's foreign or someone with a 'name'. Chances is a double-edge sword. Either success or fail, but in our...

    The case for Tim Sherwood

    Give Tim Sherwood a chance. He did well to make the lacklustre Adebayor play hard, and generally the team was more progressive and seemed like they 'care'. He's a Spurs man and knows the Spurs philosophy, but his inexperience may be the problem. But if we don't give him few games we will never...

    Is it time for Daniel Levy to step down?

    Transfer wise he's been great. On the other hand, for managers he's been poor. We may never find out if the manager he's brought in are quality or not. As whenever a dip in form, the manager is sent packing by Levy. Wenger, Fergie, Moyes (for Everton), Pardew, Martinez (Wigan) all had...

    Tottenham Vs West Ham: Match Thread

    That looks bad. Capoue is a liability at the back, but as a CDM his excellent. With that defence, the Saints are going to cut through us like a hot knife to a butter. If a shit West Ham can get double our shots, we might as well surrender our points to them. Or play really offensive and rely...

    So, you got what you wanted...

    Year after year we're slowly bridging the gap between us and the so called top 4. We were unfortunate that previous seasons we were either robbed off CL by lucky Chelsea win in the final, and also not to qualify when we've racked up record points last year. Having said that, being the typical...

    Tottenham Vs West Ham: Match Thread

    You pretty much summed up our season. We absolutely destroy teams in terms of possession and most cases dominate the stats. But without goals, it's meaningless. We're in the same position as Chelsea. They absolutely batter their opponents yet without goals they lose/draw their games. Goal wins...

    Tottenham Vs West Ham: Match Thread

    Doesn't go well with me too. But it may be the truth. I just think it's another Ramos situation where we were in the relegation zone because we had just signed a group of foreign players then too. Although, it could well be the tactics and formation isn't boding well with the players. I just...

    Tottenham Vs West Ham: Match Thread

    After seeing this and every other performance from Spurs, I doubt a top class manager can fix it. The only solution I can see is time. Time for them to gel. We can't play free flowing football because there's no chemistry. I'm somewhat reluctant to say bring Redknapp back. He's the one who...

    Tottenham Vs West Ham: Match Thread

    I don't know if it's Sherwood and AVB fault, or all down to our players. Despite a new manager, the team still plays the same: Possession, long-shots and misses (lots). OK, something has changed, the players have more grit and passion to their play now but the style of play remains. We can't...

    Norwich Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    I've watched him quite a lot. Pretty much every Spurs game so far. I understand what you're saying but just don't get why he deserves more stick than Defoe. Then again we don't have much option upfront... Adebayor has been pretty much anonymous since he signed the permanent deal, and now...

    Not saying we'll get any of them but saying it'd be good to have any one of them. As it'd improve our team nonetheless. Damaio is on the list because we apparently offered £15mil (Daily Mail). But if we're lucky we might get him for that price plus a player. We're partnered clubs so perhaps it...

    Norwich Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    I disagree. Dempsey isn't a bad player. People forget how much effort he puts in compare to the rest of the team. He may not be a superstar, but like Parker: not a superstar but does his job well consistently (well... almost). Dempsey had chipped in a fair amount of vital goals this season and...

    Norwich Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    I'd took Benteke, Damaio, Ba, Cisse, hell even Berba round that price and still be more effective than Defoe. Defoe excellent finisher just doesn't understands that when we're 1-0 down he can make it 1-1 by passing it. He'll still choose to shoot when he's completely blocked off from goal.

    Norwich Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    This is the Spurs way. Stock up on world class midfielders and buy no world class strikers to compliment them... There's a day left and I don't think we'll get a striker TBH. Levy will make an attempt on the final hour to trick us into believing he actually tried. Then the media will go...
