What our opponents' fans are saying

[Shadydan]

"Pochettino looks like someone who spends a lot of time loosening his tie, mopping his brow and regretting the three ham and cheese croissants he had for lunch."

 

[spursfan77]

West Ham fans judgement of Harry Kane is just balmy. Some of them need treating.

 

[dynamoSpurs]

I just wanted to say that this thread makes me laugh!!

It is like spy games .

"Was snooping around on Redcafe this morning and found this:"

 

[cliff jones]

Loving the scum reaction.

Wenger? Tottenham are good playing against ten men. Well why did you leave the fkin gerbil on the whole half then? He was run ragged like they all were. Last season we were quite good too, against eleven men twice?

Big fkin carthorse? Theyre always physical, they even dare to chase after us? How dare they?

Their fans? We were crap, missing all of two starters and tired after that long haul to germany where we were ritually humiliated. But they still couldnt do us in their cup final. We played hoof and hope to giroud because they dragged us down to their level. Small time, 61, blabla...

Arrogance, delusion, wrapped in cnt shaped faces.

Yeah I did and I always thought he looked average at best! He can't have had much competition if he won that award!

I hope he is the real deal because he could do a job for England, but I just don't see it.

I don't think that was a dive and was probably a penalty in most neutrals eyes and even some of us lot on here if I remember correctly. If you're labelling him a diver because of that then I doubt there's a player in the PL who isn't a diver.

An 18 year old who goes in on loan and scores 9 in 27 appearances and wins young player of the year for a struggling championship side looks average? Sorry mate but you are making yourself look silly IMO.

They are certainly in the mix Romford. It seems to be 7 teams battling for 2 spots this year with Leicester, ourselves, Spurs, Liverpool and Everton all in with a shout, along with Chelsea (who surely have to pick up soon?) Man Utd seem to be considered as being a given for a top 3 place, but they haven't looked particularly impressive to me so far and it's not beyond the realms of possibility that they finish lower than 4th.

I think he has proven he isnt a one season wonder..

He is only 22 and wont come into his prime until about 27 so to be playing this well already is very good.

A Lot of RVN goals were preventable , many goals in the game are. However they all count and you got to be there to score them.

Look at Zarates vs arsenal Cech should have had that all day long.. doesnt make it any less of a goal

I don't see how he has proved that he's not a one season wonder because he's only had one great season. If he gets 20 odd goals this year then fair enough but I don't think he will.

Yeah that's true he's still very young. Which makes scoring all those goals last year even more impressive, I think it was a bit of a fluke though.

The way RVN used to dispatch his finishes was different though. Most of Kane's goals last year just seemed to be down to a bit of luck, or poor defending and most of the ones that went in, I thought, should have been saved. Combined with a number of penalties he scored and I just thought he rode his luck to get his tally high and won't have another season where he scores 20 goals again. If he does it again this season though, then it clearly isn't luck so fair play to him.

Maybe Cech should have done better, but Zarate did wrong foot him. He took it quite early and it was low and hard too.

You just have to look at his history to see that he has goals in him. 159 appearances in all comps with 59 goals that's outstanding for a 22 year old. His movement is outstanding hence why he gets a lot of chances. Ironically if he was at Arsenal he would fit their system perfectly. Bet they are gutted they let him go

You know he has 7 goals for Tottenham already this season, 10 if you include England and it's only mid November.​

 

[nicdic]

Not sure how that guy can criticise Harry's finishing last year. He's one of the most accomplished finishers I've ever seen. Not seen someone pick out the corners in the way he does, from either foot before.

 

[RickyVilla]

Nope he is definitely shit. Carlton Cole was much better.

Makes me laugh how other teams fans think H isn't the real deal, get over yourselves he's the bollocks & he's desire is to become a Club legend & he'll get there imo

Yeah, the goal against Villa was supreme, not many strikers in the league would be capable of that sort of finish.

Some of those West Ham fans worry me with their delusion levels.

 

[ERO]

To be fair to West Ham fans above here, there is only one tosspot arguing that Kane is crap and lucky - whereas several posters provides rational posts.

 

[Sir Henry]

Was snooping around on Redcafe this morning and found this:

"If Poch has sorted out the mentality of this Spurs side, they're in with a good chance. Every time I think to myself I want Spurs to finish 4th, I see Glaston post and I think Feck that and pray for Leicester or West Ham."

GlaatonSpur still being a nob then

Would Utd be happy finishing 5th ?

 

[Shadydan]

Most of Kane's goals is down to luck and bad defending?

In that case why doesn't every striker in the league score 20 goals?, what a fucking idiot.

 

[THFC_67]

Not sure how that guy can criticise Harry's finishing last year. He's one of the most accomplished finishers I've ever seen. Not seen someone pick out the corners in the way he does, from either foot before.

Watched the Anderlecht game on Setanta Ireland and Pat Nevin was in the studio and said that he did an analysis of Harry's goals last year and he was amazed at how many of them hit the inside of the side netting, which highlights just how good his finishing is. I always thought the doubt about whether he'd make it or not was to do with whether he was quick enough to play at the highest level, not his finishing. Although to be fair to West Ham it's probably not up to the World Cup winning level they're so used to.

As a side note, Paul Robinson was also in the studio and he called out Son for not closing down the cross which led to Anderlecht's goal, interesting that he was also slow to close down Ozil on Sunday as well, something to work on there. Apologies for going off topic a bit.

 

[worcestersauce]

Because they don't have his level of skill and ability to see the luck seize the lucky opportunity and place the ball with perfect precision into the one spot the goalie wasn't lucky enough to cover

 

[Hazelton]

Remember when Freddie Sears broke through and scored a few goals for them? They wouldn't stop going on about how he was going to be the next Tony Cottee or Geoff Hurst and how, best of all, he was one of their own.

Kane, on the other hand, has broken through and scored 30 goals in 60 Premier League games, but he's shit...

 

[Insomnia]

Was it Jack Niclaus who said the more he practiced the luckier he got, our H has obviously been practicing! those West Ham lot, what wankers

 

[Riandor]

I remember reading about Vardy and how his latest goal (being a Penalty) was still important for his run and Leicester's of course, etc etc... (Though I remember many criticising Soldado for his)

The point being, a goal is a goal, no matter how scrappy etc... and any fan who goes on about how a player is not up to scratch because their goals are in some way flukey etc... clearly simply doesn't understand football.

Last time I checked there isn't a goal committee who sits down each week and re-adjusts scores and stats based upon how genuinely class a goal is or not. Jesus wept...

there were people in the bournemouth match thread after kane scored his penalty complaining it was a shit penalty. You can't please some people however stupid they are

Im not sure its stupidity, it just reinforces my belief that not all the posters on here are actually Spurs fans.
