Match Day Thread Vs Leicester (away)

A 2-0 home win after a top performance against a team above you in the table was the perfect remedy to your 2017 hangover. 2 weeks at this stage of the season feels like eons. The players are in top condition, firing on all cylinders and just do not need that much time away from competitive football. I don't remember ever seeing Spurs put in a good performance after an extended break.

 

Well, you're welcome.

 

It's attitude and application - that's all.

 

I'm just worried about the old adage 'If you can't beat 'em, join 'em'.

 

Absolutely. We saw it yesterday against Stoke. They all ****ed off to Dubai for a week while we slogged it out with 10 men on Thursday night at Wembley. We looked infinitely sharper, got stuck in and were raring to go. They looked liked they were all nursing sunstroke and half of them looked overweight. Momentum at this stage of the season is far, far more important than 'a good rest'.

 

Cmon can someone please blame the ref or the BBC?

 

Agree...will interesting to see how Arsenal do at the weekend.
Stoke were ****ing atrocious after 2 weeks off whereas we had played 3 matches in 7 days yet completely out ran them yesterday.
Liverpool looked a yard slower all over the pitch

 

We were flying earlier in the season though

Had confidence, were attacking well, defending well, everything balanced.

It is in us but how to get it back is the problem

 

You can borrow sissoko to blame...works for us

 

Where is a Saints fan when you need them?

 

But was being treated as a mini preseason apparently! Fat lot of good it did us

 

Surprised you haven't tried to sign them too. May add a bit of atmosphere to your home games

 

Two, three, what does it matter? Still appalling and have learnt nothing

 

At least we are now the worst form team....and we can't play ourselves....but if we did, we'd probably give the ball away in midfield and lose to a goal on the counter

 

I don't really care how it is justified, it's just a bad idea.

 

Our next signing is your ref and lino from yesterday, if we can match their contracts.

 

many words come to mind ... here's one: disgrace

 

Behave - who would score for us?

 

Sturridge. Obviously

 

I feel like dangling my cock in a bowl of Bird's: I'm ****in' dis custard.
