    "What did they say when Sullivan and Gold were mentioned?"

    They said :

    must remember to record the John Sullivan comedy repeating on UK Gold tonight.

    Cech out of NLD having pulled a hamstring. Even we can put 3 or 4 past Ospina?

    Which is infinitely more than your clubs.

    Depends on whether you're including the European Cup or not, really.
    Still, I'm sure that West Ham have been in it loads of times, eh?

    Went up for a corner at the end and pulled it running back. Bloody hell, that's unfortunate.
    Barca's front three must be salivating.

    I'm not the one giving it about 'small clubs' though, we know our level, we have no delusions

    Nonsense. The amount of stuff that I hear from West Ham fans about your level is ridiculous.

    Yeah the actual goal was Chadlis' fault but it looked like Davies was waiting for another player to receive the pass and I just think he gave the ball away too much tonight, I don't want to blame the pitch but it definetly didn't help. Credit to West ham, their players knew the importance of the result tonight and performed accordingly, hopefully we will to on Saturday

  11. The result wasn't that disappointing as was expecting a point at most and for the Goons to win. The worrying aspect was the fact that the Spammers bullied us in midfield and were stronger all over the pitch.
    Guess we'll find out what the team is made of at the weekend. COYS! !!

    We need Mousa and Dele Alli back and all will be well. They are a major part of this team.

  13. Can't believe how much Son appears to have faded, this half of the season.

    You just cannot ignore the poor surface, that negates much of our play. I therefore will not be taking too much notice of this result.

    You cannot use that as an excuse. As the great Brian Clough once said :

    If God had wanted us to play football on the ground, he wouldn't have put air
    in the ball, and guaranteed strong South Westerlies at Lego towers.

    Poor discipline by Pochettino.
    No Spurs player should be allowed to dye their hair or have stupid haircuts until
    they have scored at least 5 PL goals in a season.

    If you are going to quote the great Brian Clough then you need to get it right

    "If God had wanted us to play football in the clouds, he'd have put grass up there"

    Which reinforces my point so if you wish to argue you have me AND Brian Clough to deal with.

    Long way to go yet. It's never a good time to lose. However we usually respond well to a loss. Poch hasn't become a mug overnight. He seems like the type of manager who learns from defeats.

    Could be a good time to receive a wake up call..and 30 points to play for.

    Not worried yet.

    It's something that we should've known about and countered, though.
    We need to be able to adapt our game a little to deal with certain tactics or situations.
    We did it for Watford very effectively.
