Guest firetotheworks Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Were they fuck, man. What a load of bollocks. Closest Spurs got was 5 points and then they immediately shat themselves Er, for a start they were 3 points behind with a game in hand in March. Like I said, you're talking bollocks.

Ginola Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Spurs are great man. Like we were great mid 90s, Liverpool when they nearly won the title. Just because someone's better doesn't mean they're not great themselves. I also meant I think they're great to watch. Doesn't surprise me Dinho missed the point, like.

There was 10 games left in the season at that stage. Being under pressure is being 3 points or less ahead with 2/3 games to go IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being under pressure is being 3 points or less ahead with 2/3 games to go IMO Bit different to 'never being close to them', which is what I was replying to. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and all that. Until the end the narrative was about whether the wheels were going to fall off from a team that had narrowly escaped relegation the previous season. Even then, the reason Leicester won it is because their own form and results were fantastic, not because Spurs's form was poor, because it wasn't, it was very good for the most part.

Altamullan Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 UEFA.com have some decent brief highlights. Dele Alli really does miss a sitter for a hattrick against Real Madrid (unbeaten in qualifiers for five years!). That sentence reads like a Boy's Own adventure/Roy of the Rovers story. Phenomenal performance from Spurs and from City. Things looking up for the PL in Europe. http://www.uefa.com/uefachampionsleague/video/highlights/videoid=2511049.html Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Spurs blew it when the battered Leicester in January(?) but then lost it due to a Morgan header towards the end.

Top 4 is currently within our reach, but we’re not going to get it because we’ll not keep up the pace as them. This is how it was with Tottenham. I know what you mean, but Tottenham looked capable of dropping points and Leicester didn’t - which is the point that others are making. Leicester were comfortable in their games and performances whereas it was a struggle for Spurs to keep up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester were comfortable in their games and performances whereas it was a struggle for Spurs to keep up. In hindsight it was comfortable yeah, definitely. 3 points behind with a game in hand and a superior goal difference wasn't comfortable at the time though. I said it in an earlier post, but Leicester won because their own form was excellent, rather than because Spurs really imploded. Having said that, I can't agree that Leicester looked comfortable, they went from a team that were gung ho on the counter, to one that was ground out narrow 1-0 wins through resolute defending and taking their very few chances on the counter attack. Agree to disagree though, just this idea that there was never a title race between them at any point is the bit that's a load of nonsense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Spurs for me are the best coached team in the country and are great to watch at either end. They would have won a title by now the way they are going, but for a freaky Leicester or an even better coached (last season) Cheslea they haven't and this season Man City are a level above the rest. They don't do much wrong, they are just at a stage where the two previous winners did just a bit more and the likely winners this season are playing at a level which the PL hasn't quite seen. Fergie's last title winning side would have lost out to this Spurs and perhaps Mourinho's last title winning side at Chelsea too. They have an almost great team, but are missing probably a worldy type player (in form terms anyway), a Suarez at Liverpool when they almost won it or even a Bale when he was at Spurs to finally get there. I can't see them holding onto Kane, Dele Ali or their manager for much longer though. Dark horses for the CL though? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
