Stoke 0-4 Spurs : BBC Match Report

[Geyzer Soze]

Charlie Adam came on like a bit fat pantomime villian. I don't recall ever seeing a 'footballer' (I use the term loosely) more out of his depth.

Depending on your age, when Adam got put on he basically looks like he has swallowed a sheep - see Mido.

It is thoroughbreds against pony's, we have come so far under EL Poch.

There are not many other players in the world that we can seriously get that will actually improve on what we have got.

Honestly, IMHO no. 1 priority is just to keep what we have got and if so we will be even bettter next yr.

He looked like he has swallowed Mido.

Completely agree re next season. Just a quality, world class striker in case Kane does need a rest, particularly after the Euros. (I am not saying the "I" word).

Maybe, just maybe, one more defensive central midfielder in support of Dier and Dembele - although Mason and Bentaleb may have something to say about that. Not sure if they have made the same step up as the rest of the squad.

I wasn't particularly impressed with the appointment of poch nor was i happy with last season.

And it has only taken 34 games of a premier league season, including a title chase and the development of the best young English players in the last 20 years. Nice.

Thought we did alright last season. Was clearly work in progress.

Stoke were playing dirty from the word go and it's great to see that our players didn't rattled. We stood up and ran circles around them.

Man, I love Spurs!

Don't disagree with you but I'm just concerned that with the TV money and Champions League revenue (I may finally be at the point where I think we have it next season) we have a chance to get a couple of significant upgrades to the squad/team that will hold us in good stead for a while. With the new ground coming along we will need to be smart with our money but it does feel like this could be the biggest summer in our recent history. Under Poch and the current players it has never looked so promising but you cannot stand still, otherwise you start going backwards.

Just saying, not suggesting we bankrupt the club...

I was being silly. Of course i was wrong.
However last season was dull at best. 5th seemed lucky in the end.

 

[WhiteHeartLowe]

Why? Are you not going to watch any of the England matches in the Euro's? ;0)

Well that's almost a substitute for the real thing I suppose, as about half the England team will be Spurs players!

I think I had you in my crosshairs. The good thing is that Levi made the appointment and held his nerve. Poch is building possibly the greatest Spurs team of the last few generations.

Arsenal slip to 5th?

It pains me to say this but I don't think they'll finish fifth. There's a chance they could finish fourth and Liverpool could win the Europa League and take the fourth champions league spot. I can't see city winning the champions league so we won't get a fifth place. I said when we played them any team that beat Dortmund deserved the trophy.

Likewise. I predicted we would finish in the bottom half.
