Did we get described as 'fancy Dans' or as a shambles?
Well seeing as there are two ex gooners. Le Tissier, who for as long as I have been watching him on SS has not had a good word to say about spurs. And Thompson. They weren't very complimentary. They were also slating our purchases saying none of them had delivered or were any good??

I may have miss heard but sure i heard Thompson said that Rodgers turned us down in favour of Liverpool as he didn't want to work with director of football. That must be complete bollocks… As we didn't have a director of football when Rodgers went to Liverpool! Also I'm sure Rodgers signed for Liverpool before we sacked Harry.

Rodgers just rewriting history to endear himself to the Liverpool fanbase.

fuck him/good luck to him. whatever.

they didn't quite say that, the main debate was over who actually signed the players, the only criticism they made of the signings was that we signed too many. also it seems like chiriches doesn't exist because that's the 2nd time i've seen them talk about our signings and not a word is said about vlad, even the graphic missed him out.

It's because Vlad's good start doesn't fit the agenda of "all Spurs' summer signings have flopped".

Thompson's bollocks about Rodgers turning us done is just the standard English fear of the 'continental' structure.

I see Jamie RatKnip...I switch off.

Something that hasn't been mentioned much since the Liverpool game, largely due to the fall-out, is the way we were at home but they had two ex-Liverpool players and the current Liverpool captain as their panel, their co-commentator was an ex-Good and when the players came out of the tunnel the camera panned in on the Liverpool fans and said, well, er "There's the Liverpool fans", didn't focus on any of our fans and just settled on the players and the pitch.

Honestly, that and the performance (this is a loose description) of the referee (this is a loose description) made me feel like their was either some hidden agenda against us, or else we were on the receiving end of a cosmic joke of immense dimensions :(

Merson can't even read a betting slip and I bet none of the others can pronounce Chiriches.

Champagne Charlie was the worst. I amused myself with the memory of Graham Roberts kicking him into the stands at the Old Library....

Surely none of us have been bad enough in our past life to deserve two phases of Hoddle management in this one ?

Hod must have been reincarnated since his last spell in charge.

I'm pretty sure that in his previous life, he would never have suggested that Townsend, a player who hardly ever gets his head up, should play as our Number 10.

Particularly when we have two natural Number 10s with outstanding heads up vision in Eriksen and Lamela at the club.

Hoddle the player would have been infuriated at the "shift & shoot from ridiculous positions" mentality of a couple of our team, but he seems blind to this as a pundit.

they also all agreed that glenn hoddle is the answer.
To be fair, Glenn Hoddle is the answer...However, the question just isn't 'who should be the next Spurs manager?'.

I see Jamie RatKnip...I switch off.

Hoddle did have a pretty shit team when he managed us last. I wouldn't be totally averse to him coming back in the short term. Everyone wants to play the Tottenham way. Why not give him a chance. Can he do any less than what Sherwood is capable of?

The one for me after Today's game was Jamie saying "Lloris hasn't been the same since his concussion" it was only fucking 3 days ago he put in a MOTM performance! Twats

I don't think he's been the same since his concussion.
