Spurs second in table. I think talk here about us being in a relegation battle where a little premature. If we had held onto to the wins with Newcastle and West Ham we'd but top! We do have on paper a really good team one which is able to finish in the top four again this season. I'd like to see Liverpool win again with Spurs, Leicester and Leeds (dreaming here) in next three spots.I'd love it if Chelsea, Man Utd, Man City and Arsenal miss the top four though highly unlikely they all miss out. Looks like Evertons run has come to an end. Had to happen sooner or later. It seems this season won't be dominated by one or two teams which makes a change. Finally we do have to finish in top four if not win to make up for losing against Everton. That alone has sullied this season badly

I think there is simply no way anyone can look at the performance against Everton and assume otherwise. We were absolutely awful - I mean shockingly bad. What I can't fathom is why? I mean Holbjerg has been one of our best players - he's been immense - and yet against Everton he was appalling. But as for being second. Well yes, if we hadn't conceded 4 goals in the dying minutes against West Ham and Newcastle we'd be right up there - but then if we were a genuine title chasing team we wouldn't have given away such sloppy goals/not scored more. Top four? Well it would be good if played a LOT better than we did against Burnley and a WHOLE LOT better than we did against Brighton and a MASSIVE LOT better than against Antwerp..... Unless we improve then when we play proper teams like City and Chelsea in the coming weeks, we will be ripped apart. I hate football [:(]

I think you are over estimating the other teams who have hardly impressed if we hadn't already played them and won you'd have said Man Utd aswell. A good team can play badly and still win. I really don't think the others are playing great either no team is dominant. On paper out team is easy good enough for a top four finish I understand the pessimism but honestly I do think you are over estimating the opposition and under estimating Spurs. Our current line up is better than it has been for ages better than it was when we where in the top four finishes. We have only lost once in the last thirteen premier matches.

warspite1 -> RE: All things Football (soccer) related (11/3/2020 6:47:07 AM)
"Easy good enough for a top four finish". Well Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea, Manchester City, Wolves and Leicester (not to mention Everton and Manchester United when they've ditched Ole) would disagree. I have been supporting Spurs for almost 50 years and so no - under estimating Spurs is not possible [;)] [:(]. But the good news is, either of us may be right or may be wrong and, Coronovirus permitting, we shall see in 8 months.

RIP Ray Clemence

warspite1 -> RE: All things Football (soccer) related (11/15/2020 4:37:35 PM)
RIP Ray Clemence indeed... we've lost an awful lot of 'big name' British footballers it seems in the last few years. Maybe it's just that this is the time for the generation of footballers that I knew when first getting interested in football and so each name means something more than simply XYZ, the ex-ABC footballer has died?

Yeah, I think it is twofold, one is the "timing", they are players we remember, but also it has to do with the "time". They were one of the generation of players that were "famous", more so than earlier when the players also went to work beside their football.

Clemence was in goal for us having just been told that Shilton was the first choice for England. One got the impression he rather enjoyed that as Crooks and Archibald made a fool out of Shilton for one of the final goals

Aren't other ethnicities and nationalities allowed to pay in England? warspite1 It's not playing in England. It's playing for England. Grealish is eligible for either Ireland or England. The point being he can't be English because he can actually play football properly.

wodin -> RE: All things Football (soccer) related (11/19/2020 5:18:46 AM)
Klinsman has stated Spurs have a title chance as long as no one steams ahead in the race. Even Ian Wright is giving out praise. See with the other teams being all over the place and no one is standing out esp the likes of Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea, City and even last years winners not what they were last season Spurs have the talent and yes manager to actually be in the running. Now I m a Spurs fan and just can't imagine us winning the league, however I do know looking at our team we can challenge top four and maybe even win a cup. We certainly aren't relegation fodder the team really is to good for that. The worse case of underperformance would be a mid table finish. The next three premier league games are massive if we can come out with two wins and a draw that would be excellent. If we beat City draw with Chelsea and win against Arsenal we would b in good shape. Those results against current team performances are possible. City and Arsenal have been very poor Spurs playing far better, though I know Chelsea is a bogey team we have drawn against them this season. Oh after England I do like Germany. More than France and Italy anyway. So as I want a European team usually to win then after England, Germany. Though years ago I always wanted Brazil to win but then they kept winning and I thought it went to their heads to much so loved it when Germany won in Brazil. Really having some Italian blood I suppose I should back Italy it's just they throw themselves around to much which is embarrassing and at times cheating. Don't like that.
