Our away record against the top 6 under Poch is dreadful.

W 3 D 7 L 13

That's embarrassing form.

We were not really at the races tonight, not even a single shot on target. Lloris had a mere. Both Tripps and Lloris to blame for the second goal. We now have lost six precious points in a matter of four days. Not looking very hopeful against the scum on Satturday. Eroksen has not been at his best for the last three games. Worrying times....

How nice will it be to have a fresh injection of blood into the squad in the summer...

I tell you what’s strange. We have a number of players who I wouldn’t be sad to see leave, which is odd considering the quality of the team and our league positions.
Fresh injection of blood? On latest TWs only chance of that is at a blood bank.

That £11m for Dembele seems more and more ridiculous. Eriksen doesn't get the ball quick enough any more.
Was just about to post something like this. Poch's words of 'we don't exist without Dembele' were insightful and apparently prophetic. Since he took over in the CM2 we were never ever the same without him.

I'm not 'offended' I'm just making a comment, but judging by your reply you seem to be someone who gets more offended at people being offended ?. I just think it's using lazy sexist stereotypes as well being completely inaccurate, considering all of the melting on here is done by supposedly grown men.

I do? To be clear, I couldn’t give a fuck if my use of ‘girl’ as a mild form of pejorative offends you or not. There are far more important things to worry about, like whether or not girls should be allowed to post on SC when on their period.

I thought we were fucked after United.

I think we’ve been utterly magnificent since then given the circumstances.

I believe we as fans should acknowledge and remember how good we were in adversity and try and support the team now we are in a slump.

It’s called “support”.
Nobody is suggesting we turn our backs on the team. Some are just more passionate than others, doesn't mean we support the team any less because we're miserable with recent displays. We did well to scrape through there's no doubt about it but that's exactly what we did.. scrape through.

If Eriksen continues to play like he has today and in the last few games, then I’m not going to lose any sleep if he is sold in the summer but we’ve got to make sure that we receive a good fee and use it wisely on first team upgrades and not get any more journeymen.

They all played like a bunch of lily livered wankers tonight. Not one shot on goal is a fucking embarrassment. To be honest expected us to lose even though Chelsea played Monday night, Thursday night, 120 mins in a final on Sunday and playing with their reserve goalkeeper.
Oh and Eriksen has to be dropped for Saturday.

PSG robbed us of £50m for Aurier and Lucas.

I know it looks/feels that way, but at the time who else could we have signed that would have been superior? With the experience, trophies they won, it was a steal getting g those players at that price.

Let's be honest if Levy goes to sell them he'll get at least the invest we made back.

No winning mentality in the side due to no winners in the side. Our manager has never won nothing and is not strong enough ie Eriksen should be benched as is awful as a few others have been. But to bring Kane straight back in is why we’ve been shit as dynamics of the side has changed from a winning side to a loosing one. The message that sends to those boys who ground out 5 great wins while Kane has been out, they must be feeling like fuck you get me out of here. As I said in an earlier post playing Foyth and Aurier together on sat was absolutely shocking managing. Business end of the season strongest side every game no rotation address injuries when they occur. Sorry Poch but are you as good as they think???
I’m sorry mate but I’m not having the whole ‘Kane has upset the balance’ shit. We may have won a few games without him but we’ve been piss poor for the most part. Go back and read the match threads...it’s funny how short our memories are. Kane should be the first name on the team sheet. Now all of a sudden Kane is restricting Son...utter rubbish.

I will always support this club and the players. I’ve supported us through a lot worse than this.

But I am entitled to be fed up. Every time we have the chance to achieve something, we bottle it. Every time we have an opportunity to invest in the team and take steps forward, we hesitate.

The squad is an absolute mess bar a handful of players. We need an overhaul of the squad. But we aren’t in any position to do it. The stadium will prove great in the long term and we may be able to compete financially in the future. But I’ve waited years and years for us to win something more than the league cup. And it seems further away now than at any point in the last 5 years when these players were at their peak and we were buzzing as a club.

And thrashing Dortmund? Yeah it was great. But we need to aspire to a whole lot more than that. We have lost to city, Liverpool, Arsenal, utd and Chelsea. Let’s start competing to win something rather than the celebrating the odd headline making result.

We have finished 3, 2, 3 in the last three seasons. Spurs best and most consistent since 1961.

We haven't just competed in the Champions League but gone deep beating some of Europe's elite.

We are still 3rd and still in the Champion's league this season.

But you are "fed up".







Yes... you are very entitled indeed.

Ffs.


We are in big trouble now.

Now is the time to SUPPORT.

Fucking hell...

Have you been reading these posts? Apparently we're utterly shit. Have no heart. No desire. Don't care. No guts. Complete legends.


It's an accurate description of many of our supporters. Not an accurate description of this Pochettino side.

Being a shit **** supporter who jumps off at the first sign of trouble is NOT a sign of "passion". It's fucking gutless spineless "support".

I wonder when the good PR whispers are going to come out about star players we are after (but will never get), stadium updates or other business. It usually pops out after shit results. Perhaps they are being prudent and waiting for the NLD result. That's what I would do. though we have lost 2 on the bounce you don't want to shoot your wad too early. There's only so far Deligt stories or stadium pics will take you in situations like this when nothing ever gets consummated.

Everyone will most likely go after trippier and lloris and rightly so, but eriksen put in one of the most disgraceful performances I've seen from a player of his caliber ever.

That’s why he won’t make it at Real.

Compare to Modric who wanted out yet stayed another season and if anything his level increased
