    Unfortunately for you the season doesn't end until may, this is where spurs fans come unstuck and look silly.

    That old chestnut.
    What a bullshit statement to make..So I'll see you in May because obviously until then..you have nothing to say about your team and its progress or lack of....season is not over for you to make any sort of appraisel....bye bye Sucker.

    Not at all, I just don't see the point in counting your Chickens so early is all.

    But in regards to your anger laden response, we are doing as expected as far as I'm concerned so far under Klopp, he has very quickly made us tougher defensively and bearing in mind he's had the likes of skrtel and Lovren to utilise that's a small miracle imho I have never really rated either.

    Offensively we've had some really telling injuries with sturridge and ings, plus benteke & firminho being new to the set up + loosing sterling in the summer so we still need a lot of work in this department although I do fully believe had we had a fit sturridge all season we would be above you and few other teams at this point, (of course that ifs, buts & maybes and I would hate to sound like a spurs fan so speculation I will stay away from as much as possible)

    I don't think klopp will buy anyone "big" this January so it will be case of having to work with the same group for the rest of the season which I think he can do and still achieve top 4, but with a lot of thing's going our way like a fit studge and perhaps benteke and firminho chipping in a bit more and sorting out our set price play because for years now it's been atrocious.

    "sorting out set price plays'. Do you have a payment structure for referees then?

    Seems to happen to teams that buy a load of our cast-offs - Pompey and Fulham spring to mind in recent years.

    Despite the recent results one thing's for sure - in a few weeks Klopp has managed to do a hell of a lot more at 'pool than Van Ghastly has at United in 18 months.

    Anger <laugh> that old chestnut. it wont make me feel stupid <laugh> bless.

    So you appraised your team........but Spurs fans for some weird reason seem to be optimistic and you dont like it, and you still managed to make an opinion seem like fact with regards to your own team....because for some reason you believe you would be above us IF you had a fit Sturridge. Well it has not happened has it. However Spurs are having a good time of it..things are looking solid and the fans are being optimistic...but that makes you feel as though you need to bring them down a peg or two...how dare anyone but the sky4 talk up success . You show me one Spurs fan who has said that the title is in the bag? that is counting their chickens. All i have seen is Spurs fans being optimistic. You on the other hand is still cock sure you would be above us if your serial crock was fully fit. Regardless of the fact that we have finished above you 5 of the last seasons and this season looks like another one where your club will be sniffing our arses staring up the table..yet you still believe you would finish above us.

    and your theoretical fact with regards to Sturridge is like me saying i believe we would still be above you even if he was fit because i belive a fully developed Harry Kane would probably outscore all your team. A fully settled Son would at the very least match Sturridge etc etc..so my theoretical fact says..no..you would still be below us.

    and here ill give you a smile :emoticon-0111-blush...incase you tell me next that i 'bit' :emoticon-0118-yawn:

    Singalong now everyone ...

    It was (December) 20 (years) ago today,
    Some silly Mouser said how Spurs will play.
    Said they'd be below Klopps' Kop flops,
    Instead of 4 pts from the PL top.

    So let me introduce to you, pure delusion thru and thru ...

    Who says Barca get preferential treatment from referees?

    Result? Penalty. <doh>

    As if that wasn't bad enough, the penalty itself had a dodgy run-up and was an OG.

    Neymar clearly stops. Who cares about the rules though, eh?
    Oh, and the Betis manager was sent off for asking why it was a penalty, too.

  12. Let's hope it's the same ref when Barca play Arsenal in the CL.

    Not that Barca will need any assistance from the ref, of course.

    Arsenal might have a complaint if it's a Spanish ref!

    Surely a Spanish ref would not be biased towards a Catalan team....

    Jheesuz you're damned if ya do and damned if don't eh? Either wumming or wumming with appraisal on this board it seems :D no room for criticism here :)
    You've every reason to be optimistic this year I've never said any different tbh

    When I mentioned a fit sturridge I put a little sentence in brackets saying it's all speculation, all ifs buts and maybes I said, so digging me out on that comes across as plain bitter tbh

    I'll do it your way

    Spurs are this season the bestest ever team I've ever seen, with God like players and a manager the likes of barca and real would take in a heartbeat if they could. You will win the title this year and go on a 20 year domination of domestic & European football all with a team built on just 18m, the fear got the better of me, I've been in denial along with the rest of the premier league teams and I whole heartedly apologise for such insolence.

    The bites I get on here are unbelievable I feel like I'm holiday with the world's population of mosquitos.

    Happy new year chaps :)
