    Tottenham given fresh hope in Louis van Gaal pursuit

    I don't think it's any great coincidence that our more successful managerial appointments over the years (Venables, Francis, Graham, Redknapp etc) were all guys with proven experience in the same league. Pochettino get's my vote, as did Rodgers some time ago when it was muted Redknapp was...

    Tottenham Vs Liverpool: Match Thread

    It was just my opinion buddy, that's all. But much as we've spent over the years (and we've done this re-building thing now what, 4/5 times in recent years). We keep ending up back at square one. The one thing we haven't had is managerial stability. I was just hypothesising, is it better for...

    Tottenham Vs Liverpool: Match Thread

    In fairness, Holtby looked like the only player with any determination tonight in that short 20/30 minute spell. On a side note, the more I think about things (rationally), we are still above Man Utd who by and large have exactly the same title winning team as last season. People saying Moyes...

    Tottenham Vs Liverpool: Match Thread

    One minute I'm hoping I'm going to switch the TV on & see that AVB's slung his hook. Then a minute later I'm thinking to myself, show me a manager that could blend a team of 7-8 new (arguably) first team players together in 3 months and I'll show you a pig that flies. Think we have just gotten...

    Everton Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    I seem to recall us (under Jol, Ramos & Redknapp) for certain seasons having a pretty dire goals against record. Yes there will have been the odd season it wasn't so bad and your stats paint a certain picture. But there's no denying the fact we rarely keep clean sheets over the past x amount...

    Everton Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    I don't think it's any coincidence that as a team (and for several seasons now) even under Jol, Ramos, Redknapp etc, we leak goals at an alarming rate. Dawson and King were / are always injured. With the exception of King, I don't think we have really had anyone at CB deserving of being in a top...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - THE LAST MINUTE OF THE LAST HOUR OF THE LAST DAY 31st August 2012

    Said the same thing a few (well now several) pages back. I'd not be surprised to see Levy and AVB pull this one out the bag by the morning. He's a master at submitting the paperwork by the deadline and with AVB's strong Porto links I just can't see how the transfer would have failed to...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - THE LAST MINUTE OF THE LAST HOUR OF THE LAST DAY 31st August 2012

    To be fair, I'm pretty happy with the signings we have bought in. Yes a couple more like Bently, Jenas and the likes off of the wage bill would have been nice. But a star Keeper, Defender, proven PL midfielders and Striker (so spine of the team) all seems like great business to me. Add to that...

    Brave new world?

    Nice article matey, however the only thing I would say is that I reckon 99 out of every 100 Spurs supporters that you speak to here on the forums (and out in public) want exactly the opposite. The path Levy has us treading is what we all like to see because (despite our differences of opinion...

    Time for Bale to take Centre Stage

    Funnily enough, about 6 months ago me and the old man were saying that he ought to be put up front to see what he can do. Less we not forget Van Persie started really as a left winger and likewise Henry. Obviously pain's me to bring up those two names but I must say I think as a winger Bale...

    Taking on the top 4

    Does anybody here really believe that Harry Redknapp (the Rodney Trotter of the PL) won't have the cheque book out wheeling and dealing this summer? If one thing is certain, it is that there "will" be wholesale changes yet again to our squad. However I do agree with the OP that stability is...

    The Unsung Heroes

    I have been telling my Dad and Cousin (both Spurs fans) that BAE has been our best player this season, even way back before our recent run. The guy's crossing is great, he has good pace and is always able to make a second tackle even if he is beaten momentarily. Great left back and I think...
