Don’t- just don’t. It’s just fucking weird that our weakest position was never addressed in a window where we were going into our new stadium and about to enjoy our third season of CL and the line trotted out was that we had to sell fringe players before we could buy. It’s fucking Shakespearean in its tragic qualities
Well Doc WTF can we do when no one wants to take our 150M from us? We were out offering it about but there seems to have been no takers.

It wasn't even that shit of a performance we dominated the vast majority of the first half. The wheels did completely fall off in the second half however.
What game were you actually watching in the first half? Bar about five minute before the goal we were shite, the first 25 we were lucky they weren't out of sight ...

nah sorry but we really didn’t. Their attacking players looked more threatening than ours in the first 25 mins. Then we admittedly did have a period where we were looking like getting into the game without creating a lot. Ironically this is when we decided to see which player could make the biggest cock up leading to there first goal.

There was no domination out there. Just a 10 min period where we did ok.

Agree, for 10 minutes at a max. we at least had the ball (not that we did much with it or caused them any problems) and got a little respite. But if that is "controlling the game" then we are talking about exceptionally low standards.

Thats probably fair, we handled things decently well from a defensive perspective but didn't create a whole lot to show from it.
edit: @Vinny_Sammways_left_peg don't feel like responding twice.

If you truly believe that why do you support us? They are absolutely not a better club than us. Tottenham Hotspur are special to our fans (as they are to their fans). As a Spurs fan I do not find them in the least special. Liverpool are a richer club not a better club. They have improved this season by spending huge amounts of money. Spurs are hugely ambitious, as has been proved by the new stadium and training ground.

I am not saying we are a bad club, of course we are a great club. we have been consistently better than them over the past 10 years but anyone can see the tide has been turning and there is nothing wrong with that. Everything runs in cycle, i am sure our time to dine at the top table will come again.

You personally will have a dour view of a stadium that you haven't had the joys of visiting? (that is what I meant by my last comment, not sure what you're on about)

How could you possibly tell what it is like other than believing what others write about it? (unless youtube and videos on twitter count ...)
When have I had a negative view of the stadium? The stadium looks fucking awesome. The only issue with the stadium is how Levy lied and led on the season ticket holders about when it was going to be available so he could charge out the ass.

Well there’s a good chance we’ll be the “nearly in the top four” team though.
We will nearly be in the top four this year that much is correct we are after all the nearly club of everything very embarrassing but so so true.

Theres about 90 odd clubs in the football league who would give their bollocks to be the nearly club.
Its not embarrassing, you need some perspective mate.

It's odd some aren't seeing that,

Mistakes that led to the first goal near the end of the first half was the death knell for this game.

We rode Dier's nonsense earlier that nearly led to a goal, but knew we wouldn't recover after they scored.

Really? On a message board where you engage with other members in debate or discussion. And that somehow doesn’t leave impressions on others? Jesus wept silently
You read far too much it seems into a message board and peoples views, if I was doing the same I would get you're an attention seeking whore with a penchant for drama ... (i'm doing this right, right? ... )

Yes, jesus does weep, but only when you go searching for the lols.
