    Excuse me we are having our best season in the top league since the 70/80's your insult is pathetic. You are leading by 7 points and you have no grace whatsoever. Everyone on here has at some time or other pointed out what an amazing season Leicester are having. Do you think we hadn't noticed? <laugh>
    This is a discussion on styles and methods OK?

    Plenty more twists & turns to come but I'd be a bit more wary of your bigger brothers next door !

    That is the point that was being made. It does not however make us want our team to play like them. You don't seem to care as long as you win, which is a position very common nowadays but you are on the Spurs board we have a different agenda. <ok>

    So surely that that would allow us to say that but for your keeper (who has had a great season) we would have won at the Lane (we had over twice has many attempts on target in the match)

    I even put Schmeicel in my fantasy team in an attempt to jinx him. At least he got me a clean sheet bonus <doh>

    So what you're saying is even if southampton didn't have a keeper you would only score 4?

    What odds do you think I would get on a 3 match accumulator wins for Man Utd, Everton and Chelsea in Leicesters last 3? I know I am clutching at straws but maybe worth a punt!

    Reading a lot of comments on here and on the entertaining football I agree but what I don't understand is if like you say that this has been the Spurs ethos on how football should be played, how come you have had such a high turnover of management over the last decade ?

    Levy's not the best at picking managers. Pochettino was 2nd choice after LVG stood us up. Jol was Jacques Santini's underling. Harry was a panic appointment to keep us up. Think:

    Hoddle, Santini, Ramos, AVB and LVG.

    They were Levy's chosen leaders.

    It's in our nature. Plus, if the positions were reversed so would this chat be. Enjoy yourselves. It's the best year ever. Leave us to our misery!

    As things stand even if I did win, I think you would still win too

    You mean that match that we won and that match that we played the reserves?
