It's just fucking pathological now.
From where I was standing in the South, Emerson was one of our better players first half against Leeds. Fluffed goal aside he passed better and made less errors than many other more talented (and less derided players). His passing was good and incisive at times and he set us away several times.
The problem with this psychosis is that people are "blaming Conte for picking him". As far as I'm concerned, having watched every game and been to most at home, Emerson edges it over Doherty for mine (and I defended Doch a lot last season when the usual same suspects dug him out). Conte is picking him because he's the better option.
Spence is the unknown quantity but if you're booing a player because he's getting picked before someone you've only seen play 20 odd Premier league minutes then I'd suggest YOU are the twat in this situation.
If Doch plays anything like he did in that six game stretch last season before Cash fucked him, then and only then will I be puzzled as to why Conte picks Emerson over him. Right now it makes sense - because he's as good an option as any we have on our books.
Most embarrassing reaction I've seen amongst any supporter base let alone Spurs. You're diminishing the club and yourselves.
Yeah, but, Arsenal, innit. ?
