We're shit and will always be in Arsenals shadow, its just nature, the way they bully us is sad but owell. We support this pile of shit and we have to stick by it.
That "pile of shit" is the club I support.

We're shit and will always be in Arsenals shadow, its just nature, the way they bully us is sad but owell. We support this pile of shit and we have to stick by it.
And that's the point: we should be aiming to surpass winners, not those deluded tossers.In a season's time they'll be wetting themselves that Wenger has just been given a 3-year extension and they are way off the pace of winning the league. If we get things right this summer and add the right players, mentally and ability wise, then we will pass them eventually.
Anyway, let's focus on ourselves - if we do this and everything continues to progress they'll be nothing more than an after thought.
Oh... Is he in the wrong place or am I?

Thanks for correcting me. I don't understand why that was so. I think that the following are going to be shown the door:
Trippier, Davis, Mason, Carroll, Bentaleb, Chadli.
Its very clear that the problem has been trying to motivate and lift the players after the Chelsea result. They've been on the beach since then, or too many of them have, and they shouldn't of been.
So it's him who should do one then? Phew!I think, given each of your reasons for posting here, that you're probably both in the right place.
I think it goes a little deeper than that. Unfortunately, we've failed most of the big tests we've faced this season.
Lost to Leicester when they faced a wobble and a win could have changed the momentum. Lost to West Ham and let Arsenal back in when leading with only 10 men, again letting Leicester off the hook. Failed to get the job done against West Brom and then unable to respond at all when they equalised. In total control against Chelsea and then imploded, seemingly more interested in kicking them than focusing on winning the match.
We just don't handle pressure. Either the pressure to respond when things go wrong or the pressure of living up to expectations. It's one thing winning the games you're expected to in Jan/Feb, but at the business end of the season 9/10 we are found wanting.
It's concerning because this was supposed to be the new Spurs, but we've been exposed a bit as the same old Tottenham and Poch has a fair bit of work to do still with our mentality.
Don't think he's covered himself in glory either during the run in. Failed to get the right messages across at half time v Chelsea and I think coming out and saying finishing above Arsenal wasn't important was an error imo. I know what he meant, but better to say it after we've actually done it.
We didn't fail all our big tests sure, but every huge moment to seize momentum once we were in the title race, we did come up short. That's not a hanging offence, it takes experience sometimes.I think they should of been able to lift themselves. The title was gone. Cl was secured and that was that IMO. There wasn't enough
Mate we beat City twice, the game at their place being very impressive in terms of importance and of course United at home. We also took a very good point at Anfield.
So we didn't fail all our big tests.

I did say most, not all. It's clear there are many things to be optimistic about for the future of the club, but I still think we are mentally flakey.
West Ham too. That was a game all about will and fire in the belly - and we didn't show any.Fair enough, but even most is too strong for me. But I agree we came up short at some pivotal points. Losing to Leicester at home when we had dominated and failing to beat a ten men Arsenal were probably the most significant IMO.

Leicester's iron will this season was forged in the relegation fight the season before, and we need to learn the lessons from this season to avoid becoming just like Arsenal, a team that talks a good game but ultimately comes up short every year.

He's going to make them suffer like never before in pre-season. Seriously, they are going to hell in a bib.
How do you know he didn't do just that in negotiations?
For me this squad is missing 2 players. A forward to challenge or give another option to Kane. The second being a strong CM box to box to step in when either Dier or Dembele are out.
