I have been critical of Tel but he played well today and actually showed the potential he has. For me his best game yet for Spurs

That was a good win today
2 goals from open play.
Last season we would have crumpled like a hobnob biscuit

Wish I shared your confidence Greg and that Odobert had some more self confidence

He offers nothing in general play. I doubt neither he nor Odobert would get in that Bodo team

He does try to do that for sure

After his first few minutes on the pitch I was again disappointed with Simons.

Truly awful tonight Ellen

Slow, telegraph passes, players hesitant to make a final ball over the top. Lack of vision. Johnson gets the ball more likely to end up with Vicario. Lack of fight and steel in our physicality

My word, Spurs are atrocious yet again.
We have forgotten how to pass properly and our front three are unbelievable bad

Ummmmm….. hasn’t trained and isn’t quite ready - we expect him to play soon.

We over pay for players

Muani doesn’t make the bench. Simon’s benched

Wonder what Aunty Viv and the Lewis clan thought of that tonight?

Jeez, that was painful,
Midfield didn’t work
Attack didn’t work
Spurs went to sleep at HT and never woke up.
Did Simons play.
Someone said Johnson came on, did I hear right?

The good ship Hotspur has a new navigator, a new Captain and a new Owner and is embarking on its sea trials. Whether she turns out to be a Thames Barge or an ocean going Sloop we will soon see. Plenty of choppy waters ahead.

I thought I saw Uncle Joe in the directors box yesterday disguising himself with long hair wig but on second glance it was Aunty Viv!

It was Sonny. Not sure now. I like Djed Spence

This will be interesting to see who will play where.
This seems quite a physically weak team.
Any long throwers in there?

Finished 4-0. Lucky to get the nil.
That was as ‘Orrible as I hoped it wouldn’t be. If Bayern had scored 12 we couldn’t have complained.
The midfield was as strong as melted butter.

Still no Solanke or Udogie. Are we being told porkies re their match fitness ?

The system in place now is when one manager leaves you hire a coach/Manager with a similar modus operandi who can work with the players on hand and identified, as in Spurs now, for front foot football. A la Brighton etc. spurs are still in the early throes of this change around.

Doesn’t matter who the manager is All I expect/want is for Spurs to challenge for every competition they enter every year. To be in that final dash for the line. Sometimes we will win many’s a time we won’t but to be there with a shout at the end.
