Today's Football 2016 / 2017 Season

[tsubaki]

We are 17 points and a million miles off Spurs.

Demoralising.

someone will have Poch and Alli off them and then we will be a lot closer

and then someone will have Lukaku off us

Plus the stadium situation.

Then again I guess that's what you get when you have a business man in charge of a club.

They're 9/1 with Paddy Power for next year. definitely worth a punt.

For them to win the title next year Levy needs to target whoever Chelsea wants to bring in as a replacement for Costa (if Costa does leave). If you gotta pay 150M for a couple strikers that will sit the bench, you do it because as Benetke proved you can still have them rot on the bench and get all your money back.

That was a couple of sitters. Niasse would have had the net bulging.

 

[Saint Domingo]

God that Liverpool team. Hopefully Stoke can take something off them.

Just think, it was 26 last season. The gap is closing.

He's brilliant that Spurs manager. Absolutely brilliant.

Spurs pal has had issues with Poch's substitutions in the past. It's all coming good a bit late for this year.

Spurs are proper good, glad this is pretty much all over which means no need to bring Kane on, easy pickings here for a few goals for him but let him rest.

Well, 2nd season on the trot they've been title contenders and one of the best sides in the country.

Easily replacing the RS in that top 4 club bracket

Why Dave? Spurs have had steady progress under a manager for the past 3 seasons now, judge where we are in 3 seasons time is the only fair way really, to expect a instant closing of a considerable gap (from a midtable team which we where to a title contender which they where) in one season was never gonna happen.

As for spurs, next season IF spurs go ahead with the plans to play a year or two in Wembley, you will see a massive dip, as they really have been brilliant at home this season - and Wembley REALLY doesn't suit the way they play (and it's effectively a neutral ground)

That would be a big worry if you were a Spurs fan.

I think they'd move quickly and get someone like Tuchel in.

He happened to 'bump' into a few Barca officials during a break in Spain whilst the internationals were on the other week.
Just a coincidence like.

Problem they have, until the new stadium is finished they are still not that big a draw for a top manager mate, would Tuchel really leave Dortmund for Spurs right now - don't think so myself (for Arsenal maybe he would)

I think he's there for the long term.

Yeah. Great.
