If Spurs draw and Arsenal+United lose tomorrow, I'd lose my shit 

This would make a great Europa League commercial: EPL teams are racing for the 5-6th place, everyone is trying hard to do their worst.

That were that desperate, they brought Janssen on.

Do you know when his last first team appearance was?

No idea, but they have end product in their midfield. Eriksen and Alli. The former in particular who should be in the team of the season. 

For a big bloke, RLC really has no shot on him.

Without Kane, they have the same problem as us.

A last minute winner doesn't change that, but a competent manager does.

I think when you look at Spurs you have to take a side eye view....What's been crazy is we have had an absolute mess of a season, Spurs have been brilliant yet they are only 3 above us.

What sets them apart from us is very simple, they are a unit, and that starts from their manager. Not only are they a unit they have players like Son, he's fucking brilliant, a proper all rounder, and to be honest he has stepped up every time that big chinned cunt has been out, I think that says more about him than Kane in all honesty. They are just well, drilled under probably the best manager in world football for me.

One big things stands out for me and how far we have fell away in terms of individual quality is that quite a lot of their starting 11 would walk in our side.

Stop. Please. I know what you are trying to do, so I'm going to stop you there. 

They just beat City over two legs with players stepping up in the form of Son, Moura, Eriksen, and Alli. If Hazard is quite, there goes our entire game plan. It's been the case under Conte and Mourinho.

I'm trying nothing. I can't stand people overestimating teams in this league. Liverpool and City are the only teams that have superior squads to us right now.

 

 

I couldn't care less about the VAR fiasco that aided Spurs last week.

Monday was shit, Tuesday could have gone better.

Let's hope today will be fun as Arsenal and Manchester United both lose(I have faith in Pep and Nuno) and Sunday is gonna be epic. Never liked OGS, he was an annoying player and he is even more annoying as a coach with his lucky wins, I would love to see him managing his team on Thursday nights in gorgeous ex-USSR and Yugoslav cities.

The "we are shit and our rivals are amazing" thing has always been a big trend on here.

I'll take spurs and United squad over our squad. Spurs has kane, ali, son, eriksen all in their prime. They have good cb in alderweied, vertonghen 

We have hazard, 30+ Willian, Higuain, Pedro, super raw CHO. Our backline is bad but we have kante and jorginho. So basically we have 0 offensive power beside hazard

United has pogba, Rashford, Lukaku, martial.

Young, Jones, Smalling & Shaw? 

 

 

I can't help you, man. You're already a lost cause.

They are rotation player. It like talking about Zappacosta, Cahill, ampadu, Drinkwater for us. 

That has effectively been their back four under Ole and two (maybe 3) have been given contract extension. I wouldn't trade our squad for any of our rivals, but each to their own.

 

P.S. Drinkwater hasn't seen the light of day under Sarri, so good comparison.

But that is not the point, who Ole played is not the question. The contract is also not the questions because if it is, hazard has one year left and he obviously want to go to rm. 

The question is simple who has the better squad. You cannot say ohh they have Smalling and jones. Even pool has lovren and Moreno.
