    Emerson Royal: Milan in talks with agents of €30m Tottenham defender

    Whilst amortisation has become such a hot topic it's still only a small piece of the puzzle in this situation. The club will want to maximize the transfer fee irrespective of amortisation, and get as favourable as possible payment terms for Royal (and indeed anyone else) - you dont see home...

    One Hotspur + on sale time for tickets

    So many tickets available on the exchange (and so annoying that i cant get guest tickets as a member at times like this!). And so many in the South stand too, fanbase has really tuned out which is disappointing to see.

    Player Watch Player Watch: Son Heung-min

    Erratic seems to underpin a lot of Sons work aside from when he's curling one into the top corner, maybe I've just gotten used to it. Would happily take the rest of our midfield erratically pressing the players their marking at the same time as Son presses the keeper though, over what we have...

    For me if it doesnt look strategic thats on the team not just Son. Its not up to him to turn around signal everyone to press, they need to read that he has gone, and get close to the immediate outlets. Hes not expected to win the ball in all likeliness, but one of our other guys should right...

    Player Watch Player Watch: Son Heung-min

    "Defensive work" is too general term for the stat they're sharing - its purely pressures, closing down the defender/keeper, so in that regard i'm not surprised he's top of this list. Bit harsh to say he's like a dog chasing the ball. He could pick and choose his moments a bit better (and save...

    New Tottenham 24-25 Kits

    Haha for sure, i dont think we can blame that on the colour of the sponsor/shape of the collar/position of the badge though...

    New Tottenham 24-25 Kits

    Not one that i'll be buying but as always looks better worn properly rather than the XXL draped over a small hanger that always seems to be the first photo to break:

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    Again its more to say year 1 is a struggle for even the best (my points around klopp were secondary), and they all struggled to start at a time when you think it was easier to rise to the top. So lets see if Ange can develop things next season rather than get too stressed about the bumps in the...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    I dont think its necessarily a comparison to say "we will definitely be up there with them and win some trophies", its more a comparison to say that those considered at the top of the game went through bumps just the way we are right now so lets not rush to judgement. Klopp is leaving so if...

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Liverpool

    Stubborn in his approach maybe but i wouldnt say team selection. We change the midfield pretty much every game, front line also is a lot of chop and change, and i dont think ive seen as many HT subs than we've had this season. Stubborn in not playing lo celso sure but then several managers...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    This video literally shows nothing new its just, "mark your man and press him high" and "low block" low. No idea how youve taken this to be some sort of cheat code.

    Player Watch Player Watch: James Maddison

    Theres no goals and assists, where Palmer is way ahead this season and are just as important if not more than any of those categories. What i take from this is that maddison, who should be close to the peak of his powers at 27, plays a more forward passes that dont lead directly to goals, and...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    i definitely agree with the point youre making in that we've done well in an attacking sense but the math in reality isnt quite the same as adding the two numbers on a calculator....

    Player Watch Player Watch: Micky van de Ven

    He has a very hard running style, incredible straight line speed but not good for turning, and it's not an easy watch seeing him do it now with the injury he's already had, its not like watching bale burst forward in his spurs days. There are some calls for him to cover on the left because of...

    Spurs and VAR

    This is approach is fine if VAR is to rule on everything as it sees it as opposed to the "clear and obvious error" remit. With the latter, the refs need to be calling it how they always did pre VAR, but they're not and its just leading to loads of non-calls a lot of which dont get overturned.

    Player Watch: Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    And thats fine call bissouma out for it as needed. Calling for hoijberg to start on his own merits is a different shout all together, he is very much a case of someone who increases in value/opinions more when not playing imo.

    Not anti peh as a squad guy but enough with the "he has to start" nonsense. Sarr should start, peh should not.

    Match Threads Spurs vs Arsenal

    They played chelsea midweek so its only after us that they get 1 a week, theyre still dealing with the fixture congestion just a shame that chelsea didnt give them more of a test. That said, i havent felt confident all week though a bit more hopeful we can get something as we get closer to the...

    Arsenal

    In terms of the individual match incidents for me its a bit of a reach and speaks more to the amount of pressure/how much time arsenal spend in and around the opponents box looking dangerous/pressing high. The "luck" is a result of that. Own goals of that nature i also dont personally consider...
