Stellini mate, I'd spend as much time as possible not reminding them they're Tottenham if I were you.

Stellini mate, I'd spend as much time as possible not reminding them they're Tottenham if I were you.
'This is the history of the Tottenham' has gone straight into folklore and set them back another decade.
What the fuck is a Finalissima?
It's like a UEFA Super Cup but between the champions of Europe and the Copa America champions. It's the first year they're doing it.
It was the way he said it as well like it was obvious.Quote:

The only improvement would be if he'd adopted the phrase "Lads, it's Tottenham" thinking it was some sort of Spurs battle cry.
Bielsa looks set to become Uruguay's head coach. Filthy.
A man truly back in his element.
Meanwhile Gateshead are 6 points clear of the drop with two games in hand. I think that'll do it.
This Sunderland v Hull game is ridiculous.
I feel like I blinked and 3 goals went in.Quote:

A couple of terrible scuffs wide apiece now.
Doesn’t seem very Dyche-like to play this open to a side that can only score goals on the counter. They do look alright going forward though.
Godfrey doesn’t have a clue where to be positionally
The Everton left beck is being terrorised.
If Antony isn't even finishing chances on his left then he might as well not be playing.
Scotland's finest.
Why not try Jadons Ancho on the right, where he can do them passes, and Antony on the left like a favela cunt Antonio Valencia?
Really quite shite this Everton team.
Their team is full of utter dross. A small miracle if they stay up.
Lampard going straight back to 4-3-3, just because why not. Surprised he’s playing Koulibaly over Badiashile though. Makes no sense at all.
Spurs unchanged against Brighton after shitting the bed against Everton last time round. It's like Conte never left.
Looks like at the least a pulled groin for Sir Marcus.
I still reckon Everton stay up. Southampton probably gonners and I don't fancy the chances of Bournemouth or Leeds.
If it isn't Southampton, Bournemouth and Forest then one of them has done a cracking job.
Forest have a horrible set of games remaining as well: Villa (A), United (H), Liverpool (A), Brighton (H), Brentford (A), Southampton (H), Chelsea (A), Arsenal (H), Palace (A).
I had no idea their run in was that rough.
They'll need to be hoping in their last 4 games that aren't Southampton, the teams no longer have anything to play for by then.
Madrid will give Chelsea 5 with Cucurella, Koulibaly and Kepa all playing.
Some great scores at HT there. Leicester could be right in the shit and have City away next.
Their run in is full of relegation 6 pointers after that.
Conor Gallagher being allowed to play 97 minutes is a war crime
He looked good at Crystal Palace. Was that just his level, running around in less space and being allowed to take more pot shots?
He can run all day long and is aggressive. Probably perfect for ‘low block’ teams due to being able to do all the dirty work and being able to kick a ball hard. He shouldn’t be near a team that has more than 40% possession.
12 points off relegation - it is on.
If Leicester go down with their squad, then something has gone seriously wrong.
I know it's possibly two more than the other teams down there, but don't Leicester have two good players?
I was shocked to find out Jamie Vardy's had one goal in the league all season. Is he not getting the supply or is he done?
He’s 36 and his game is built on running behind defences. Done, I’d say.
They have three half-decent forwards, and Maddison/Barnes/Ndidi/Tielemans/Dewsbury-Hall behind just shouldn't be going down, particularly not when you look at the Bournemouth side to whom they lost at home today.
I'm having my every few months browse of the table, and Aston Villa are sixth. Did they buy big in January or was Steven Gerrard that crap?.
I feel like Maddison is not one in the team to fight for it when the going gets tough. He's a very, Newcastle in the summer for £40m type player. He likely knows it too.
Despite their 4 strikers combining for only 9 league goals this year, they're actually outscoring the teams around them quite significantly which suggests the problem is at the other end.
Danny Ward is not a good enough keeper for this level. Soyuncu their best CB has also appeared only twice this season for whatever reason too.
I think it's the latter. Is it my imagination or did Stevie G publicly give Ollie Watkins shit at one point?Quote:

If you look at their current run, they've had consecutive matches against proper relegation fodder.
Haaland now with more league goals than Chelsea.
That's like half the league this season.Quote:

Watched the City game and listen, even if we somehow don't anally destroy these soft twats tomorrow, the real takeaway is if this City side don't take the title it'll be an outrageous robbery. Absolute levels above.
I thought that Mongland bicycle goal was a bit meh at first, like when a centre-back throws a foot at one, but the replay shows how good it is. He's moving in all directions to make contact.
I'd heard the ref [and linesman] in the Brighton game were pretty shit, but that was a fairly special effort.
De Zerbi is such a little don/street rat. Was half excepting him to knife Stellini in the tunnel as they were going down.
I think if it was most other strikers you could probably still make an argument he's just hurled a body part at it but there are enough goals even just this season where he's contorting his body to make the best contact that it's clear the big freak knows exactly what he's doing.Quote:
