Nothing is going to change mate so don't pin your hopes on the new stadium transforming us into a team that can challenge city, Utd or Chelsea as it won't happen.
Yes hopefully enic sell up but what if they don't then we are stuck in the cycle we are in now of the fat boy looking through the window of the sweet shop wishing he could have it all.
Look at their bench Silva comes on as third sub we couldn't afford him as a first teamer that there is the disparity alone let alone the petro dollar owners who blow ours out of the water.
Absolutely agree with everything you mentioned but we could afford if the Levy/Enic regime had ambition for our wonderful club. But like you said they haven't just about making profit. I know you should be careful what you wish for. Our club once the stadium is built will be worth 1.25 Billion yes 1.25 billion so how the fuck can they say we cannot compete with all the revenue going to come in to the club. I tell why because it's going to be a gravy train for Levy/Enic so like I say let's hope an extremely rich Spurs fan fucks Enic out the water.

Tragic performance

Will do the team an ounce of confidence that one

Absolutely nothing going forward

No guile from playing out from the back

But ok,it works against most teams innit

Just city are the phenomenon this season

Dembele bad bad game

Eriksen doesnt do enough against good teams yes he gets the odd goal but doesnt have the commitment sanchez at arsenal seems to

But thats just his personality

Not singling him out because he wasnt the worst at all today

I wonder if that will affect out champions league confidence

Not a bad match really. Highly interesting, most of it. I thought the ref was against us, clearly not up to the task of handling a home team of international stars. That might have edged it. I also though that if it wasn't for our lack of luck, we might have been luckier and not been so unlucky. So I urge you to a little perspective, if we had created more goals, we would have won this easily!

If Lloris saved all the shots he didn't we would have won

Three beers later and I'm feeling a little bit better. It hurts seeing us on the receiving end. Now we know how Stoke fans feel.

People are going to be very disappointed when we have our stadium and still don't win anything.

The money will always fuck you at some point.

Enic have been fantastic but I do believe that they have taken us about as far as they can.
We are the perfect club for very rich investors, great training facilities, great fan base, amazing new ground being built. With big investment we could be a top team in Europe for decades
I hope your right and agree with your comments because we're not going anywhere under Levy//Lewis!!!!!!

As I said to the Spurs fans watching the game I fear and hope not but I think Poch has taken this group of players as far as he can. And to be fair a majority Agee. 3rd then 2nd to god knows where we will finish this season. But instead of pushing on and strengthening. Levy was more concerned about filling his slimy little pockets with season ticket sales.at Wembley. Having none Tottenham supporters in Wembley making for an absolute shite atmosphere. Please it's just all about the money with Levy. Then for him to come out and say in the Spurs forum chat last Monday answering a question about Bale, and saying there's a good chance we could get Bale. Please just fuck off Levy paying Bale £250 p/w minimum please just do one Levy I cannot wait till you do one from our club your like a politician tell us what you want us to believe and never the truth.
Do you not believe that the players and the team will improve with maturity and experience? Do you not feel that maybe Eric Dier at 23, Serge Aurier, Ben Davies and Harry Kane at 24, Christian Eriksen Erik Lamella and Son Heung Min all at 25 and Dele Alli, Davinson Sanchez and Harry Winks all at 21, have all still got their best years ahead of them? If not I'd be interested to know why.

I’d sell my soul to the devil (if I had one) for spurs to win the league before I die and and being taken over but a multi billionaire with unlimited fund is the only way I can see it happening

Why though?

Might aswell just go and support city because if that happened to us it wouldn't be spurs winning the league it would be the oligarch/dictators money that has won it

They didn't have their best team. They were missing Kompany/Stones, Mendy and David Silva. Half of their defence was Mangala and Delph at Left Back and we still couldn't get anywhere near them:(
Not suprising though is it look how little amount of touches we had in the final third never looked like scoring and what the fuck was going on with the defence today fucking shambolic.

It’s a weird one because if we had played like this against Real Madrid and been comprehensively beaten we would have accepted it as being schooled by Europe’s best.

That is what happened but it’s harder to take from a team on your doorstep.

We aren’t at their level - we probably never will be because they’re a very expensive set of players of which most are also enjoying the best form of their lives.

Let’s not spit the dummy out... 5 years ago this was a regular occurrence.
At this moment city would probably maul madrid so

Look I'm almost 50 with my hand on my heart could I see us winning a EPL title in my lifetime the answer is no unless there is a dramatic turn of events in regards to how we go about our business.
We are the nearly men and have been for a while we get close but never ever can deliver on any front, today we looked a shambles and our mentality was even worse.

No no no no no fucking no.
Spurs were the rich club in 61, does that not count either then?
I support spurs no one else and I want us to be the best. Unless the money comes from a psycho dictator I’m game

These reactions are funny. Poch has lost it. Eriksen is shit. Alli is shit. Dembele’s legs have gone. Dier needs to be sold Trippier not good enough. Winks not at the level.

I’m 100% certain there will be collective amnesia when we beat Burnley
Hats off for your dashboard bonanza ratings

They have been together between 3 some of them 5 yrs we finished 3rd then 2nd this season we are regressing in the premier league. That is due to Levy/Enic not strengthening in the right areas. We have lost so much pace in the side. Peps most effective two signings this season all though one injured were left and right back. Walker and Mendy have taken them to the next level. We have no pace on the right side so lost all our dynamics and shape. As much as I hate to say it loosing Walker has fucked us right up. We are going to loose Rose, Dier and Ali next so you tell me?

Let's see what the future holds for the club hopefully enic will sell up sooner rather than later.
