Very happy for Leicester
Quality signings and a team worth more than the sum of its parts.
Very refreshing

Also embarrassing for us, almost every recent Leicester signing has been better than the equivalent Spurs buy. Probably for less £££ too.
Can only dream of the foresight to pick up the likes of Maddison, Tielemens, Fofana, castange, ihenancho even. (Said at the time also, not just giving it the big 20/20 hindsight)
Not planning ahead for the Eriksen departure still the worst non decision by us on the steady downturn

That was a touch getting Wes on the pitch. I know it's unpopular but I'm genuinely pleased for Leicester and the fans.
Certainly puts this nonsense about you can't expect to beat money team argument to bed, the problem at this club is a mentality and pressure issue the club just doesn't believe enough.

Fitting that Tielemans would lead them to glory. For me he’s the symbol of their recruitment successes contrasted with the abject fucking disaster that Levy and Hitchen have presided over.

It’s sickening how far behind we are, even compared to clubs with similar resources, and absolutely nothing will change until Levy acknowledges that his meddling in the football side of the club has been a failure. Depressing.
Hitchen needs the boot

Fuck Leicester btw. Massive bunch of ****s. Lucky they were up against Chelsea or they would be feeling more of my wrath.

Hughy out.
Yeah close to it. I can fully understand why people leave this/other Spurs forums, we have the most obnoxious, entitled fans I've ever known.

I know change is needed in the way our club is structured, but how predictable it was that these arguments would come up whether Chelsea or Leicester won was ridiculous.

Congratulations Leicester, I'm genuinely happy for you. I wish it was us, but it isn't.

Thats what football is all about. Why would anyone want Chelsea to win? The fans, manager, players, owner, Gary Lineker all delighted. For Chelsea its just another game and whats the fun in them winning it. I absolutely loved it when VAR overturned their goal. Can't stand that club.

@Gardham90 you think a guy repeatedly shouting "Jap" aggressively at a person of Asian decent isn't racist?

I really enjoyed that game. The fans made such a difference.

As much as I don't particularly like Vardy and Maddison, I hate them Chelsea wankers much more.

I thought Leicester were fantastic. Positive on the ball but fuck me they worked hard off the ball. Showed so much desire and heart. And I think that's why I feel angry. Because we have a bunch of players who just think they are better than they are and can coast through games with minimal effort.

Tielemans was brilliant. Great on the ball but off the ball he tackled, pressed, encouraged and held the team together. Some of our high earning players playing in that position should take fucking note of the effort that is required.

Fuck me! Do some of you just wake up in the morning looking for reasons to be angry at Spurs?

Go and get laid or something FFS
Maybe some do but I think it's very fair and just to see Leicester lifting that trophy and feel a tinge of anger or disappointment and vent that in this particular thread. There's a pretty strong connection there.

I think what takes the shine off it, is that Spurs have been in similar positions and not shown half the fight.

But they won't and in five years time we will still be having the same conversation of missed opportunities and failure.
