Many of their fans have had enough of Conte.

 

[Rozay]

Been saying all week on here that I expect Kane to do absolutely nothing against us.

 

[BerryBerryShrew]

It's at times like this that I wish Glaston was still a poster here, but then even if he was he'd probably be too busy attending to some urgent business in Delhi to log on for the next few weeks.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

@Chief123 this guy called you a Steve Baker earlier, not shit-stirring or anything...

 

[V.O.]

They were actually quite optimistic before the first goal, proabbly thinking they'll nick one on the break or something else totally undeserved

That's just testament to how fecking jammy they've been so far this season.

What a beautiful read.

Ironically, Martinez and Varane did just that. Took Kane and Son out of the spurs team….and lo and behold they were bang average!

 

[BorisManUtd]

Been saying all week on here that I expect Kane to do absolutely nothing against us.

That reminded me of those seasons under LvG when Kane was scoring against almost every opposition, but always struggled against Smalling-Blind defence

Responding to Conte’s comment about United in the post game presser

feck me, a team that finished over 10 points behind us last season have become much better than us now after appointing a new manager a few months ago.

Well, actually…

Whats the difference between a thumbs up and a check mark? both means you agree about something.

 

[Who's Kissing Cameras?]

From the Spurs main Reddit page…

Getting bossed by Fred in 2022 is outrageous

United away, tough game, our attacking threat limited to Perisic, Kane, Son and a returning Doherty. Absolutely agree that these were terrible conditions to play with, but it's just poor how we played, we looked dead. Players need to ask themselves on how they managed to let 28 attempts.

Conte is also to blame for this game, limited by options but still didn't make rotations. Tactically we were wrong, our defence that we pride ourselves on in absolutely disarray.

Also feck Bruno Fernandez and dumb fecking face. I hate him the most.

Stressed ate a box of chocolate I bought for Halloween. Now i gotta go get a new box before family notices..

Well we got the 352 that the entire coys internet was screaming out for and it was absolutely abysmal. Literally the worst we've looked all season.

Am I a bad person for laughing?

After getting sacked this morning all I wanted was to enjoy the football. I couldn't even get that.

Shocking, unacceptable performance. I better not hear any Hugo slander ever again. I'm convinced we don't work on our midfield or final third at all in training.

Their second goal was really undeserved. We had just strung together 3 passes in a row for the first time.

How are we supposed to win the UEFA Champions league when we play like this

Hugo easily MOTM, Son and Kane weren't able to function because our Mid and Def collapsed to absolute shit. United ran through us and toyed us around - they had about 200 shot on goals. Bruno is a complaining fraud per usual, Conte might need a ego check and bring in substitutions early when they actually have a chance to make a difference, Rashford is average but in his head he thinks he is world class which I find funny - the moment of this game was watching Ronaldo leave with 10+ minutes left. Does Antony ping shots beyond the box every game for them? That's all he literally did and it looks like his only job, which I’m glad United got robbed in daylight paying for his overpriced 4 feet ass. Dier might need a serious checkup, after his hit he looked way out of it - even more than before.

Hello Europa my old friend

I’ve come to see you again

Because results softly creeping

Left us in UEL while I was weeping

And that vision of Thursday nights in the rain

Still remains

Within the sound of [the Europa Anthem]

Best till last…

Is Jose back?

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

The pundits will just piss themselves.
We are so fcuking easy.

Turned off for the News at 10. It’s less of a clusterfeck watching the government than this gutless team.

...

Another cowardball setup from Conte, stupid prick better not make subtle threats about quitting in the post match interview like he normally does.

I hope he does and I hope he actually fecks off this time.
I fecking hate this brand of football.
It makes me want to turn the TV off and spend time with my family.
I fecking hate it.

...

We're spending too much time on ourselves.
You just have to hold your hands up and give it to them. They've worked so much harder. They're first for every single 50/50, their passes are cleaner, they're running further and faster.
We look like a team 3 or 4 weeks behind in the pre season program

...

Funny how United were in crisis at the beginning of the season and we got off to our best start ever. It’s not going to be long now before they are ahead of us in the standings.

newcastle will be too i reckon

...

Remember when we had a proper footballer like Eriksen in our team.

...

Can’t believe how good we’ve made this average United team look

Maybe... but their work ethic tonight has put us to shame.

...

Same as against Woolwich this team can't cope against the good teams.

Ronaldo strops off down the tunnel.
The single enjoyable moment of this entire clusterfeck of a match.

Ronaldo as to make it about him. What a prick

Newcastle on Sunday is going to be another really tough game.
Conte better have this lot in for training tomorrow. It’s been one of the worst performances I’ve seen in years.

...

...and yet again a player we missed out on by penny pinching makes the fecking difference btw.

Shit and all as we were tonight and generally, I’m still glad we didn’t sign Bruno.

...

United have 28 shots. FFS

We Won the window. Who improved us?
Man Utd have improved
Woolwich have improved
Newcastle have improved
City have improvedAll improved their first teams. We haven’tShocking

What a sexy pass by Eriksen(or was it eriksen)

This brand of football is fecking depressing. There's been some shit periods down the years but this takes some beating. We have zero attacking instinct or any basic build up play.

...

All the haters and the media are gonna have a field day with this shit..

We were terrible. We deserved the shit

...

Conte should be embarrassed. Probably more pathetic than the Woolwich game , ten hag has been at United for a couple minutes and he totally out done him

What where you all thinking ffs.
Its just like that cnut neville said ' its ok lads its only tottenham '
feck off conti you mourinho cnut .
Lose having a go ffs.

only spurs can get united and newcastle in the top four mix to make it harder
we shit ourselves again

There’s not a single positive thing from today. Have to play a lot better against Newcastle

...

We are a gift to big teams and the media. Shearer said years ago 'Tottenham will always let you down.'
The terrifying thing is, no one knows the answer .

We need a manager with a positive attacking philosophy. Mourinho, Nuno, Conte. There’s little or no difference between any of them.

....

Oh how I wish we were good at this football lark

It's why I don't laugh at other top teams when they struggle.
We are soft as melted butter as soon as It's big stakes.
Season is done in my view. We ain't winning nothing and top 4... unlikely.

Almost like when we played up here under Mou - totally outclassed and overpowered. 2-0 flatters us. No period of control. Tactically nowhere.

Ten hag had the perfect tactics but it was no surprise at all the way they played. Don't understand Conte at all. Elite coach and his signings have been good, but why is he coaching his team to have 7-8 players behind the ball and counter at a snails pace. Even at 2 down 7-8 players behind the ball. Son and kane can't keep dragging them through dogshit tactics like this.

...

I firmly believe United won’t have an easier game in the league this season. What’s the point in talking the talk then playing like that? Absolute abomination

we play newcastle next too, set up like this and we will lose that

...

We've had 3 defensive managers in a row now, I'm just sick of it. Don't get me wrong conte is by far the best of the 3 but it's just not in our DNA as fans to watch this.

Team needs to wake the feck up, there has been 1 or maybe 2 good perfomances this season out of 15 games. We are in 3rd place but feck me its all been a fecking grind vs lower teams

...

It’s going to be a broken record this season. We are going to grind out 1 nil results against bad teams and then lose to the good teams and somehow finish 4th with no trophies.

We’re not finishing in the Top 4.
I’m pissed off and having a bit of a melt, but our football is fecking atrocious. Dippers will go on a run now and UTD, Chavs and even Newcastle are all playing better

...

Deserved to lose this 5 nil.
This passive shit is unwatchable.

Hag surprised by how easy it was.

The positive news is: We’ve now played
Woolwich, Chelsea, West Ham and Man Utd away! 2 draws and 2 defeats. Last season it was 4 defeats.
Tonight was really poor. So tedious and no threat. I’m a big fan of Conte so I’m not going to go in on him but improvement needed for these away games.
Massive game Sunday against a vastly improving Newcastle!

When you make Fred look good , you know you’ve got a problem

...

3 absolute dog shit performances on the road at Chavs, Woolwich and Man Utd. Trip to Spammers not much better either.

No top 6 game has been won by the away side all season. Must be near to 10 games now.
We’re the only ones that have taken a point.

...

Have to say and not a knee jerk this is one of most tumescent and worst midfield I've seen for tottenham. Grew up watching hoddle, gascoigne etc. Midfield now is diabolical.

I grew up watching Mackay, White, Jones, Dyson etc
Imagine how I feel!!

 

[No Idea For Nickname]

even at 1-0 we still passed backwards
no urgency to attack
settling for the draw and setting out to play for it was the downfall

Even at 2. I counted 8 behind the ball.

...

For some broader perspective, the season we beat Utd 6-1 at OT, they came 2nd and we came 7th.
Don’t let a single game distort your view.
The away games against the top 6 sides have been really poor this season (as they were under Poch), but we are still tending in the right direction.

When Liverpool beat City at the weekend, I did a little fist bump and proclaimed to my mate in the pub, that's a great result for our title chances, and for the league in general.
Now just 4 days later I'm sweating top 4 and the gooners somehow luck sacking their way to a title ala Leicester.
As the great man said, It's a funny old game.

...

We are still 3rd. But , yes we have been shit against all decent teams.

Weve been shit against most teams but have sneaked goals.

...

Do you agree with me about the lack of effort and ambition shown?

Of course. But every team has shit games in a season.
Utd were massively at it tonight, but let’s not forget how abject they are against Brighton, Brentford and City.
They got mauled by all 3.

...

Overall I think Conte was out managed here, the tactics didn't work at all, sitting so deep, subs were too late.
But also Man Utd played with more intensity and desire, helped by their home fans. Fernandes was annoyingly good.

watch him disappear for the next few games
players always seem to find form against us

...

It was a shambles tonight but I don't think that was because the players weren't playing for the shirt.
I think we just got completely outplayed which can happen in an away match to another top side.

No it doesn’t and since when United are a top side anyway? This wasn’t United going to City. This was a team in 3rd going to a team 7 points behind who looked abject in their last 2 games at home but tonight we parted the waves from minute 1 - we made Fred look like a world beater, fecking Fred.

...

It's performance anxiety, lack of technical ability and Hojbjerg level mentality. We are a "team" with no spine. Put prime dembele, van de vaart and eriksen in that team and we're an absolute force to be reckoned with.

Eriksen never returning to us.United offered him a long term contract and an unbelievable salary.Mercenary.I do not want his name mentioned on this forum again.Never a true Spur.

...

Let us be honest we are overachieving.United struggle and spend 160 million.We cannot afford to miss our 2 wingers with injury.

Ten Hag: "I think it was the best team performance so far this season. You can see we are still developing but you can see the way we want to play. Against Spurs as well''

 

[Judas]

Fair enough, at least they're honest that their brand of football is utter toilet. Few Spurs fans on here could do with admitting it.

 

[MadDogg]

That reminded me of those seasons under LvG when Kane was scoring against almost every opposition, but always struggled against Smalling-Blind defence

Smalling always completely dominated Kane. I think there was one match that Kane did fairly well, but otherwise Smalling always had him in his pocket.

 

[Nick7]

I find it incredibly funny that they autocorrect Arsenal to Woolwich

 

[SmashedHombre]

at the guy who thought Liverpool beating City meant Spurs were somehow in the title race.

 

[calodo2003]

I find it incredibly funny that they autocorrect Arsenal to Woolwich

The hell does Woolwich mean?

 

[Chief123]

The hell does Woolwich mean?

It’s their version of City fans claiming Man Utd isn’t in Manchester. To be fair, it’s the only bit of banter Spurs have to throw at Arsenal. There’s not many medals they can put on the table.

 

[Lecland07]

Tottenham are literally just Kane this season. He has scored the winning goal in five matches.

 

[AkaAkuma]

Does ‘the Tottenham way’ still exist or has it been forgotten in the chase for top 4?

 

[cj_sparky]

The hell does Woolwich mean?

Arsenal founded out of the Woolwich Royal Arsenal and took on the name Woolwich Arsenal when they joined the Football League. Woolwich is also South-East London.

 

[I’m loving my life]

Thinking again about last night and the Amazon pundits bigging up Spurs midfield before the game as three amazing midfielders ready to win the midfield battle. They were really shit!! They are definitely hyped up too much in the media

 

[HookedOnAPhelan]

Glast.... off surely.

 

[bond19821982]

To be honest, all grounded comments. Not exactly rawkish or bluemoonish.

 

[RVN1991]

Tbf I thought they sorely missed one of Kulusevski or Richarlison in order to offer some type of supple to Kane and Son. They offered absolutely nothing on the counter which is their usual bread and butter in attack.

 

[Chief123]

Arsenal fans singing “Tottenham get battered everywhere they go” in their match.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

To be honest, all grounded comments. Not exactly rawkish or bluemoonish.

Agreed, particularly the one where someone called @Chief123 a cnut

 

[Sandikan]

So has the Cafe Conte-ometer now decided he's crap again?

Can't remember a swing between thinking a manager is finished Mourinho style, and the best ever so quickly.

 

[GaryLifo]

Interesting that they want to go with the United are shit and we made them look good narrative, because that's better copium than giving credit to an improving team who will likely finish above spurs.

 

[Samid]

We derailed their season.

 

[Irrational.]

I remember some posters here pining for Conte after their dead cat bounce. He’s a short term manager that almost always ends up imploding.

 

[DWelbz19]

We should be tapping up Kane all season long to try and get the price down. Imagine him in a ten Hag side trying to play actual football

 

[Chief123]

We derailed their season.

They’ve now played 4 out of the top 5 teams around them. 3 losses and 1 draw which should have been a loss. They really aren’t turning up for these big games.

 

[ayushreddevil9]

I’m surprised they even get any visitors because of how horrific it is to use their forum. Even Arsenal mania is horrible. The page bouncing all over the place because of the ads appearing.

He'll only have a year left next summer (unless Spurs have an option for another?). Wonder what Spurs will accept. I definitely think he'll push for a move if they don't qualify for CL, and we're the only realistic option left in England.

 

[Chief123]

Kane would fit in beautifully into our team and style. He’d play in the wingers so many times by dropping deep. I think levy will ask for a ridiculous price regardless so only a free transfer would viable.
