    Some of us have an issue with how he was seriously disrespectful towards our club in the past and had concerns cos of whst happened at Chelsea (with 3 months of winning the title) snd at United.

    His player selections can be baffling and we have only played one very 90 mins v Burnley.

    I go to games and support the players and manager no matter what I think but suggesting that giving reasoned criticisms of him makes fans whingers is simply wumming.

    A proper chance to spend loads of money and then get sacked with a big payoff leaving Spurs with an unbalanced squad.

    I’m not a fan of him for many many reasons, if that makes me a whinger then so be it.

    Injuries have been Lamelas problem, everytime he has a run of good matches he seems to get injured. Casing point start of this season probably our best player in Aug and Sept then injured again.

    Has made more impact in his last 2 sub appearances than some have all season, a very good player who appears to love the club - but if he is to be effective he must stay fit.

    To suggest that he has only had 2 highlights though is massively unfair to my mind.

    In terms of the Development squad the club's always had an odd approach to confirming contract extensions: players like Parrott, Skipp, Roles (and, in the past, Edwards and Shashoua) have had their extensions confirmed by the official site, presumably because they're getting a lot of hype, but for others the only confirmation is either the Retain/Release list or their posting a photo on social media (as was the case with J'Neil Bennett a week or two ago)

    When you fellas make suggestions about Spurs team selections,a lot of it makes so much sense. Yet our managers do things that sometimes seems,well,bloody crazy. Pity the managers don't have a gander at not606 and think about it!

  7. I’ve been no more critical of Poch than every one else, and a lot less than some.

    Your collection of posts don’t prove anything other than that you are a clown. You have randomly drawn posts from all over the place, and completely out of context from what issues they each originally addressed. It is utterly desperate stuff on your part.

    Unfortunately for you, there is a poll that I posted just before Poch was sacked which completely undermines whatever pathetic point you are trying to make.

    Why don’t you quote from that?

    Clown.

    The tottenham jack wiltshire. The more he doesnt play, the better he gets. Hes a bit of a cult hero cause hes skillful, occasionally scores a belter and works hard with aggression. In reality hes a squad player imo and he cant even really show that as hes injured all the time. Has a great left peg but takes too many touches for my liking

  10. Yeah, it does make you a whinger.

    I don’t see that as being something to be proud about.

    Well, not until I start whinging. Then I might reevaluate my view on the subject.

    You know full well that I have “previous” on that particular score.

    Personally, I support your right to be totally, utterly and completely wrong on this.

    Thanks not necessary.

    You're welcome.

    Somebody's getting overly defensive. Would that be related to you saying that our current manager can't be criticised...for things you criticised the previous one for doing?

    Can you really not see how that doesn't make sense? If we can criticise Poch for playing a disinterested Eriksen or a hapless and overweight Rose, then we can criticise Steptonho for the exact same thing because he's getting the exact same results and by complete coincidence results are something the club has not been getting in recent weeks

    No wonder it's so easy to confuse you for somebody else using similarly blinkered logic

    Back to Derry with you

    In other news, various headlines state that the deal for Gedson F will be finalised in the next 48 hours

    You know, sort of like how it was said that the deal for Piatek would be completed within the next 48 hours

    The Piatek headlines were last Friday

    ...confident?

  16. Wtf are you bleating on about now?

    Who said Mourinho can’t be criticised?

    Not me.

    I most certainly will voice criticisms of him, if I think it’s justified.

    My point in all of this is very simple.

    I didn’t want Poch to leave, as is clear from the handful of comments I made on my poll thread. I wanted Levy to get rid of certain players who were under performing, and for Poch to be given the chance to rebuild, next season.

    Now, Poch is gone, and it’s down to Mourinho to try to sort out the problems that existed under Poch. He’s having difficulties due to those problems.

    Well what a surprise! Who would have predicted that, eh!

    And what do you and other whingers want?

    That’s right!

    Sack the manager!
    <doh>

    I know what... Let’s keep sacking managers until there are no managers left to hire. Yeah, that ought to do it.

    Honestly.

    Do you not see why some of us despair, at times?

    There was the same impatience with Modric who was described as too lightweight. Bale was crap and needs to go and we all thought Sissoko was a waste of space. The rush to judgement is so much a football thing. In Lo Celso's case it's even more unfair because he has had very little game time. Hopefully following this window we will see much more of him.

    paultheplug and Hoddle is a god like this.
  20. Lo Celso, Ndombele and Sessegnon could all be great players for us, if Levy does his business correctly.
