    Match Threads Spurs Vs Liverpool

    Seems likely Liverpool will win. We have a lot of players out, they are on a roll and they have a good recent record against us. Only thing going in our favour is the recent hiatus means Conte will have had more time to work with our players and they will be fresher. If we can keep the shape...

    Match Threads Spurs Vs Liverpool

    I am wondering when I'll get to see a game again. Haven't been to a game since 2019. I wouldn't mind but I usually go with my Dad and he point blank refuses at the moment. But I have a feeling you'll be right. But it will be Liverpool calling it off and everyone will have a chuckle at Klopp...

    Jose: Players not motivated for group phase

    Three thoughts. LASK really needed a win last night, so they were always going to be really up for it. Watching the match I felt we missed a holding centre forward. They pressed high. We struggled to pass through them, so ordinarily play it up to Harry or Vinicius. But last night that option...

    We have been drawn against Barcelona, PSV Eindhoven and Inter Milan

    It's going to be Messi at the new Lane.

    Watford dismayed as Cup clash set for Milton Keynes

    Good for me. Much easier to get to. :p

    Dele Alli one of the hottest properties on the planet

    I'm not saying we should invite offers and I am sure we will tell all comers to piss off. BUT we all know how it works. If RM or Barca are really keen, they will get the machinery going to seduce him and eventually he will have a quiet word with his agent. Definitely won't happen this...

    Dele Alli one of the hottest properties on the planet

    I would love it not to be the case, but realistically if RM or Barca came knocking with that sort of money, with the kind of shenanigans they are capable of behind the scenes and stirring up the press (which seems to have already started), DA's head would be turned. From then on in, it's a case...

    Poch has changed Spurs mentality, claims Dembele

    We've got the talent and mentality in one=off games to beat anyone in this league. But this is a marathon not a sprint and the concern still has to be the end of the season when minds and legs are tired and the pressure mounts up. Dropping out of the CL may have helped on that account, as the...

    Dele Alli one of the hottest properties on the planet

    Agreed, but £50m...no. Perhaps £80m.

    Lloris gets €4,000 bonus even if we lose a game

    He would probably ask to sit on the bench for games like Swansea if that were the case.

    Poch: 'We can win this competition"

    The Europa League has benefited many squad developing players in the past, such as Kane. I suspect/hope this could be the chance for N'Koudou, Winks, Carter Vickers, Lopez, Omomah, Carroll, Trippeir and Jansen to show what they can do. Sprinkle that bunch with a rotation of first team players...

    Lloris gets €4,000 bonus even if we lose a game

    Eh...is he on a pay to play contract or something? Is that how we are matching the big contracts he could get elsewhere.

    Levy has last laugh on West Ham over Olympic Stadium

    Went to see Stanley (Dad's team) play at West Ham in the Tin Cup. Easily out sung them. But I can well imagine the crowd problems between fans after derby games. Very difficult to segregate unless they literally leave one whole side over to the away fans and guide everyone out over one...

    Winks says his first Spurs goal was 'just a blur'

    To be fair it was more of a bobble :whistle:

    Bentaleb - club agrees to sell

    Good player, but totally dropped off after he got his new contract. Wish him well and I hope he gets his head screwed on again.

    Team v WBA

    Not sure it is that simple. I suspect that part of the reason Son played upfron was because he could do the front line pressing better.

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's all laugh at Chelsea thread

    Figures. Even by Chelski's standards it would be a bit too soon. If they are not back in the top four by end of November he will be sacked. Then it will another season of misdirection while their over paid prima's do just enough to keep the fans interested.

    Pochettino: failed title bid 'wasn't physical, it was mental'

    Yup. We got pushed about in that Chelski game as they clearly didn't want to lose their title to us, which really blew the wheels off. Lesson learnt and move on.

    Ledley King: five of his best moments in a Spurs shirt

    The legend who played most of his career with a cropped leg end. Whenever he was on the team sheet I always felt that we'll be alright. Just a shame he had to miss so many games. But of all the players I've seen play in the flesh, he is still my favourite.

    Son loves London apart from the food

    No, I call it inappropriate. You'd have to ask a South Korean if they found it funny or not. I'm sure they have heard a lot of dog meat jokes, so most probably couldn't give two hoots. But what goes around, comes around, which is why I have baited Lilbaz, as I'd rather throw it straight back...
