I’ve heard people say “the old top 4 was Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal and Us” but I think you’re right in general and to be honest I was just trying to make a joke. It wasn’t meant to be this deep :LOL:
wasn't at all taking a dig at you mate, just trying to use my few firing neurons for something useful like digging up ancient trivia :)

No worries I didn’t take it that way and I’m a year away from 40 now so my life is basically over too. I’d just like to see us win one more anything before I croak ;)

I might be getting old and my memory is not what it used to be, but...wait, what was I going to say, oh yeah, as I recall the whole concept of "top four", "big four", "sky four" etc., I'm pretty sure only started when 4th place meant CL. Before that, finishing 4th or 5th had no particular importance.

I’ve heard people say “the old top 4 was Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal and Us” but I think you’re right in general and to be honest I was just trying to make a joke. It wasn’t meant to be this deep :LOL:
Both wrong. In the mid 80s to early 90s there was the big 5. Spurs, Liverpool, Man Utd, Arsenal and Everton. Chelsea did not have a sniff until their Russian money changed their fortunes.

I don’t know how many of you use Teams at work but there are some great Spurs related Gifs in there. I’ve been spamming my Arsenal supporting mate everyday this week and it’s driving him nuts.

Much as I hate to contimplate it, in a few years we might be looking at City and Newcastle disputing the title every year. City were yo-yo relegaters and no hopers before the infusion of boundless riches, and that only, made them where they are today. No reason the same won't happen to Newcastle. Contrary to popular, or more precisely, wishful-thinking, money does buy happiness. And love too, to judge by their ever swelling fan base.
Newcastle arguable as big or bigger club than city before the takeover. Only thing is city had Nike behind them for branding.

Gents, where did the 'summer transfer wishlist' thread go?

Yes, for those of us who are banned from the transfer forum, the absence of that thread basically kills the site for the entire summer. Given any player threads that are relevant will be in transfer rumours and there are no matches to discuss. It's a shame

I'm guessing that's the entire idea, sadly ? I must say though that as much as I still wish there was an amnesty, the strict routine moderation there is definitely better than anything-goes.

It wasn't during the last window. It was full of absolute irrelevant bollocks.

  • main difference between Sp**s and us they actually have 2 goal scorers in Son and Kane specificly on the end of the season our goals were not coming though.
  • Still think we are on the right track but we need a quality injection.
  • Main difference is Sp**s got a top 5 manager in the world and we got Pub League Mik. We win one more match in that 3 straight losses at end of season and we breeze to CL.
  • The Pub manager you calling got us most wins in league since Wenger was in charge
  • Italian Mourinho is not even top 5 in the PL
  • Italian Mourinho coached the pants off pub league Mik
  • Sp**s score a ton more goals under Conte than we do, Pub league Mike’s teams score only in matches that don’t matter
  • Yawn, am I supposed to be impressed that a team with Kane and Son score "a lot" of goals?
  • Kane had less goals and provided less assists than last season, Italian Mourinho must be truly world-class to accomplish such a feat ?
  • Lmao, Italian Mourinho came to Sp*rs after 9 league games, but if you want to make pathetic excuses I suppose you can somehow equate that with half the season. Guy lost to the lowest ranked team in the Conference league and exited in the group stages, I'm supposed to cream my pants over what he can do in Europe next year?
  • Winners with multiple league championships playing in the CL after they inherited a free falling team don’t need excuses. Losers who have Cedric and Holding decide our CL failure after 280 million should be packing Oranges for the girls at the park and not be destroying the Arsenal brand
  • Then why are you making them for him?
  • A manager who has spent 2 decades and has one a majority of his league championships at a dominant Juventus. At the time barely more challenging than winning the league with PSG.Are you going to keep licking his boots when he has his inevitable meltdown and leaves? He's already had a few mini-meltdowns.
  • Lol Conte with all his faults is about 100 times as accomplished as Arteta and he publicly clowned him and Arteta choked
  • I would take any of the top managers in the league over Arteta; Arteta isn’t even good enough to be in the second tier of managers in division, he isn’t even Moyes, Potter, or Rodgers. Comparing Arteta to Conte is like comparing a mule to a Championship winning race horse. Between Sp**s and Arsenal one team has a fraud the other has a proven winner.
  • If Arteta is as sh*t as you say isn’t it a bit embarrassing that Conte a supposed "top 5 in the world" needs to be compared with Arteta to look good?
  • Conte won the League with Inter they hadn’t won it in many years. Same with Juve, he started Juve’s best championship period in club history. if he isn’t top 5 he is top 10, and all his teams played more watchable football than the king of Joseball 2.0 Arteta.
  • you attack Conte to deflect attention from the proven failure we have managing our club.
  • it's a long term project. Sp**s only getting to top 4 because of Son & Kane goals.
  • I just find it odd you attack Conte for boring football but Arteta plays even more boring football and manages your team. But beyond that my statement isn’t odd, if Conte is not top 5 he certainly is top 10. If my statement is so out of norm name 10 better managers then
  • Pep, Klopp, Tuchel, Simeone, Ten Hag, Ancelotti, Zidane, Allegri, Nagelsmann, Flick. Not particularly hard and I don't even rate a bunch of those super-highly either
  • Control the game? Lol is that would we did against Newcastle. Conte added a quality starter in January took a floundering team to CL, what did Tets do? So Conte stinks for succeeding in 6 months to do what Arteta failed to in 2 and half years?
  • Shots is what Arteta's tactics lacks. Shots is what granit Xhaka fails. Cumshots is what Artetasexual likes!
  • Like Arteta is the worst manager in the league but finished just 2 points off the Elite Conte.
  • Think it’s the fact that Conte took over Sp**s when they were 8th and we were 4th. We had games in hands as well. Its not rocket science is it.
  • Conte beat him this season, we just have to admit it.Up to Mikel and Arsenal now, to try and get the better of Sp**s next season.
  • We went 21 seasons finishing above them, now it's 6 in a row for them...need to end their run very soon!
  • It's really sad how the Cult of Contesexuals are trying to convince others that Mourinhoball 2.0 coachee by a man with a mediocre domestoc record and a horrendous European record is the greatest thing to ever happen to modern football.
  • calling Italian Tony Pulis a top 5 in the world is laughable.
  • Tottenham has finished 6 years ahead of us. 3 Sp**s managers finished ahead of Arteta. It’s like beating the disabled kid in school in foot race, Arteta is not a PL manager
  • Tuchel, Klopp and the others have an almost equal or better domestic record to 2 decades Conte but trounce him in Europe and the great majority of them do it while playing better football, pathetic

I'm trying to work out how their logic works when they think that they can discredit Conte's titles because he did it at Juventus, yet at the same time call Nagelsmann, Flick, Allegri and Ten Hag better.

Flick and Nagelsmann working in a one team league. Allegri is credited when he came in straight after Conte? Ten Hag had Ajax playing some amazing football, but the hype around him before he's even managed a game for UTD is maddening.

Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the football that those coaches have their teams play, but then I enjoy Conte ball too. Just because he knows when to admit that the other team are better and we have to counter attack does not make him a defensive/boring coach. If we'd broken through Liverpool's high line as many times as we should have (Hojbjerg, Kane and Deki all missed easy passses for Son), then would world class Klopp have been lauded for sticking to his principles?
