Tottenham Hotspur

[Benicetoourboys]

We always had to hope 3 teams did though..

It's not nice, but I cant remember feeling sorry for the teams below/around us that we were competing with to stay up.

Oh no, I obviously didn't feel sorry for other teams at the time, but at the moment as we're away from it all I do feel a bit of empathy for their fans.

Don’t feel bad for Spurs. Feel bad for their keeper.

Yeah, I do too. He had what can only be described as a "Turbo Karius".

The substitution was a disgrace, mind. Goalkeepers make mistakes. If you are going to hang them on the spot, well, I'm not sure "man management" is your strong suit. If you are then going to double-down by saying picking him at all in the first place was a mistake - further humiliating him - then I wonder why the same standard is not applied to you and you do not get sacked on the spot.

On the bright side, Spurs were unlikely to go down with any kind of manager. But with players making incredible blunders AND a head-banging manager simply scapegoating all and sundry, a perfect storm is brewing. They could most certainly drop.

they'll lose to the RS and fire him.
Probably put sherwood in till the end of the season and get the two wins they need.

What a shame both of them cant lose on sunday.

A draw would do neither much good.

Thomas Frank doesn't seem so bad now, eh spurs

I still don't think they'll go down, but if that turbo clown was the one in charge should they go down..

 

[Evertonthat]

Individually, their squad IS too good to go down. The problem is that this isn't an individual sport. I'd back Forest and West Ham to pull together and grind out a few results when they need to. In the past when we've been down there, on the whole there's been three worse teams. Spurs have a fight on their hands this season.

Thank you for raising this. I'm not sure BMD could muster what Goodison did, at least not currently.

I’m sure it could

It was never down to him tbf, sure there were games he could have probably been a bit less stubborn but he was on a downwards slope from day one imo. Frank requested 5 players when he joined none of which were signed. They have had horrendous injury issues for the best part of 18 months now as a hangover from the Postecoglu era and his kamikaze brand of football, Frank only had 4 players consistently fit at times during his tenure and 2 of them were GK, they have had an entire first eleven out at times that would actually be half decent when you go through the names.
If they do go down then a huge amount of the first team squad will leave (like 15-20 players) but a club like Spurs will be able to buy all the best talent in the Championship and a couple of decent Scandinavian prospects and they will be straight back up.

I`d heard I`m a Celebrity in the Jungle, walking around in nothing but a Burnley lion cloth.

Is that like a loin cloth but with hair?

[RomanReigns]

imagine having a world cup winning centre half and leaking goals and losing games for fun

 

[Benicetoourboys]

I’m sure it could

I still see a big spirit amongst the fanbase (especially at the match) we would help them again.

Genuinely blows my mind that Igor Tudor hasn’t been replaced yet, it’s as if the strategy is to get relegated.

You would think that if they replaced him someone else they would get the 3 wins needed
