What our opponents' fans are saying about us 18/19

It is bad taste. Neg me as much as you want.[/QUOTE]

I will thanks. We all have different views. I let him know how I felt about what he did etc. Unfortunately I am not able to say it to his face so I do what I can. If you and others don’t want to it’s up to you. Have a good day

While ultimately Lloris got very lucky so the initial reprehensiblity of his actions is equal, a quick dig shows that Lloris was driving 15mph in a 30 with 80mg/100ml alcohol/ blood, Alonso was doing 70mph in a 30 with 91mg/100ml alcohol/ blood. Both are horrible mistakes, but saying they are the same is like saying firing a pistol once into a crowd is as bad as throwing a petrol bomb into a primary school classroom.

The initial mistake of getting behind the wheel is equal, but Alonso’s actions following that were dramatically more likely to kill someone and as such yes, he deserves greater ire and disdain than Hugo does, even before considering that he’s taken a life and destroyed a family while continuing to enjoy a paradise of an existence.

Oh don't be a fucking tool mate. Just read back your post to yourself and see how silly it sounds. Not only is it nitpicking, it reads like a first year Uni student trying to be smart.

Not everyone's body is the same and if Lloris was impaired with booze, that's what matters. You are, like I said generally above, looking at the end result. Lloris got behind the wheel impaired. So did Alonso. Both could have caused an accident, and if Lloris wasn't a danger to the public he wouldn't have been penalised by the courts. All you're doing is trying to find ways of letting one off the hook because he plays for us. For some people, one drink over the limit is enough to cause an injury or death. Stop looking for excuses.

 

[Mr Pink]

Drink driving is shocking whatever way you look at it. Your judgement is impaired end of, and you risk the lives of others when you do it.

Throwing stones/glass houses and all that.

Just to nitpick, lloris was 80 in breath which is over 2 times the limit in UK (35) whereas alonso was 91 in blood (80 is UK limit not sure about Spain or wherever it happened) so he was only just over

Are we absolutely sure Hugo wasn't just curb-crawling? I'd forgive him for that.

Okay both guilty for driving over the limit, but driving at 15mph even if he hit someone with his stupidness and yes it is stupid, but the likelihood is that person being hit at that speed would have a very good chance of surviving, I know that because I was hit by a car doing 20+ as a kid and got up badly shaken and bruised and got myself off to school. If that vehicle had been doing 70 I’d not be posting this message today.

Drinking and driving is reckless, but driving like an idiot should come with a prison sentence. If top people where made to pay more for their stupidity it might filter down to our future not taking risks.


edit: RIP big man (wondered why I never got a response)

Some advice from Sarri

“Inter are a good team, so I just hope they don’t have the same initial approach that we did,” noted Sarri.

“It’s important to contain them in the first 30 minutes, as that is when Spurs are really dangerous. Inter must also avoid losing possession in their own half, because when it comes to counter-attacks, Tottenham are one of the most effective teams in Europe.”

---

Seeing that we very effectively neutralized them in the first round, I'm confident Spallo knows what to do. Everybody whined about how our attack looked, but either refuse to acknowledge or chose to downplay that we did contain them quite well defensively. Kane had 1 chance and they scored a grossly deflected goal.

Chelsea were flat yesterday (energy wise), fielded a very lightweight midfield, and a very shit forward who messes up like 90% of the offense (morata). Not to mention, an absolute disaster defender in sideshow bob. Unfortunately for Chelsea, all those elements showed up at the same time.

We just need to not be flat Tuesday and we'll be fine.

---

Just realize they play Arsenal next after our match. This week honestly isn’t any easier for them than it is for us. They might even prioritize the London derby if they think their chances of getting out of this group are a long shot

---

was going to write something about that as well but it was coming out clunky and disorganized. But, yeah, we might have a tough away game as well but the worst case scenario that comes out of that game vis-a-vis Inter and Roma is we leave the Olimpico six points ahead of a team we expect to be fighting for CL places with. In other words, we'd still be in pretty good condition.

Tottenham will be anywhere from 3-6 points ahead of Arsenal going into that game (1-1 in Arsenal's game as I write this). And it's a proper derby, not just two teams fighting for similar ambitions. That's a tougher game for them than Roma away is to us, with all due respect to Roma; if the roles were reversed Roma fans would probably say the same thing.

That being said, once the game starts on Wednesday night I'm not really sure "what about Arsenal on Sunday?" is going to be concern to Poch or the players. Spurs know it's a must-win game for them in Europe that night and, if anything, would be prone to having a negative knock-on effect for the NLD if they get knocked out of the CL directly before that game.

---
I think people are reading a little too into Spurs beating Chelsea. That defeat was a long time coming for that Chelsea side. Their defence is very poor, of that entire back four I would say Azpilicueta is the only one I'd rate highly as a defender. Luiz and Rudiger are shaky at best and rely too heavily on Kante to protect them, and because Kante was too busy protecting Beavis and Butthead behind him, the midfield got completely overrun. Add to the fact that Chelsea lack a top striker, they had nobody to produce a moment of magic and keep Spurs on edge.

Meanwhile we have one of, if not the best centre back pairing in the CL, our full backs are competent but I almost would agree with an earlier suggestion of moving Skriniar to RB for this one if Vrsaljko isn't ready to go. I really don't see our defence faltering the way Chelsea's did.

The tactic just has to be the same as it was the first time out, press them high up the pitch and put them under pressure. Icardi, Perisic and Politano have a massive job to do in that regard to not give that back line an inch to try and play out from the back.

It's not going to be pretty to watch, but there will be a lot of Inter working to contain Spurs and merely be looking to Icardi to make something out of nothing, but the main thing will be to stop Spurs scoring and I have full faith that we will achieve that.

---

We will win the match 2-0 with Icardi brace.

 

[cider spurs]

Well off out for a few jars this lunchtime. It won't be what our opponent's fans saying about us...it will be me going full tilt at the Chelsea fan who drinks in the same pub and chats shite trying to wind me up concerning all things Spurs.

He's havin' it big styleee today.

First time I've heard kante, jorginho, kovacic be referred to as "a very lightweight midfield" if we can make them look lightweight, I'm hoping we do the same to inter's midfield

I accept that drink driving is an emotive issue, but there’s really no need for you to resort to personal abuse when I was I’m confrontational, erudite and objective in mine. Maybe I come off as a first year uni student (don’t see how that’s an insult though), maybe I come off as making excuses (I wasn’t), but your retort says far worse about you.

Corr, they're fucking optimistic having stolen the points in the first game?
That was the epitome of snatch and grab. Especially the comment about Kane only having 1 chance - their whole team had no chances until Icardi larraupped a speculative effort from 87 feet away that beat Michelle Fowler in goal .

You forgot to mention modest.

 

[Sweech]

Lloris also got a similar sentence despite doing 15mph in a 30 while drunk as alonso got for doing 70 in a 30 into a wall and killing his passenger. Both are idiots but the sentences arent consistent albeit they were in different countries

Well yeah that’s the all important distinction right there. Had Loris done what Alonso had in England it would be a much different story.
