Last season we were playing it (at least for 1/2 of the season).
My question is...how important is it?
Now I don't mind admitting that in between my spectacular Hollywood antics during the day I still find the time to go over the occasional recorded footage of our games from last season. The evidence suggests that we really only played that level of "we're-so-fucking-good-we-do-what-we-want" football in a few games, in patches.
To name just three examples, Liverpool, QPR, and Villa were all teams we pissed all over for 45 mins, before allowing them back in. We had a great run of wins/unbeaten, but not many of those points were gained by Spurs playing at our best.
Basically my questions are.....how important is style over results? Is the idea of beautiful football a bit of an idealistic illusion?
