gbandit Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 Really feel like the wheels are going to come off Spurs’ season at some point. Their press is excellent but they seem to ride a lot of luck game after game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They stand a great chance of maintaining their form. The bottom 10 are bad. The top 6-7 will look to get 50 points from them. Spurs have enough quality to do that.

Hanshithispantz Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) Excluding Liverpool, who were down to 10 (and eventually 9) and had a goal chalked off due to a technical error, Tottenham have dropped points in their 2 hardest games (Brentford and Arsenal away), getting maximum points from the rest is a great achievement, but it's very likely they start to drop points when they're on the road to Palace, Forrest and Wolves rather than Luton, Burnley & Bournemouth.

Gallowgate Toon Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 I don't feel like Spurs have many chips are down players still, some of the mopey bottlers from past seasons are still there. They started last season well in terms of results (much worse performances) but when things didn't go their way then they really faltered. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 It looks like Spurs have a good first 11 but the subs are a bit average, not many game changers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think you can say they dropped points away to Arsenal, and they were on par with them for 90 min. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let’s see how the do from February/March time when they usually go and fuck things up. We’re usually in Europe too. You’re probably correct. We’re mopey bottlers who only win the easy games and if you take our best player away we’re not very good. Our defence is suspect, Richarlison is piss poor and we’re going to fall to pieces after the January transfer window. We just ride our luck game after game and the wheels are inevitably going to fall off. Quite enjoyable though. Looking forward to Ange getting a couple of transfer windows and a full pre-season. Everything else is gravy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything else is gravy. I get that you are enjoying the ride, like we all do. I just think it’s very early days to start getting carried away, the same applies to Villa who went from being pre-season favourites to gatecrash the party (outside of ourselves), to being slated for losing to us, to back to being lauded. We see it year after year, a team doing well early on, only for them to fall away. I think it’s too early to say anything so far. I’m still not expecting anyone to actually come close to Man City at the top. There will be real competition for the European places, but let’s not pretend that we have Man City, Arsenal, Liverpool, and Spurs in a title race.

Hanshithispantz Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) I'm not calling them out. They've only dropped points in 2 games, Arsenal and Brentford away. The point is that they've dropped points in the two toughest fixtures, and that their fixture list otherwise has been padded a bit by three of the easiest away fixtures in the league. They've done great, but at this stage 23 points could be 19 if their opening fixtures were slightly less forgiving.

To add to this, basically what I'm saying they'll likely start to drop points when their fixture list becomes more congested with mid table sides away from home. They're lightyears ahead of last year still, but it's generally those games where Man City rack up wins and run away with it.
