I would love to see them and Spuds just collapse for years

love seeing English managers doing well

he is streets ahead of trash like (why the fuck we were linked with him I have NO clue) Javi Gracia

most Spanish managers are SO overrated

[Vesper 28,764]

Quique Sánchez Flores is even worse

far worse

Watford FULLY deserve to be relegated

their board is insane

Surely, surely we have 3rd in our grasp? 

Look at where we were just around Christmas last season and how our league campaign ended.

If we sort out this sudden influx of injuries, we ought to be in a good position.

Arsenal HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Not even the winter yet, they are already going downhill.

Chris Wilder seems to be a lot better than the more mundane English/British managers like Pardew, Allardyce, Hughes, Moyes, Pulis, Bruce etc.

Chill, Tomo. We're still in October (winter hasn't come!). If we're still in this position come January, then you could say we look a good bet for Top 4. Until then, best not get carried away just. We were doing alright at this stage last season and looked safe for the Top 4 but ended up crawling into it (partly) because the other sides all crumbled at the end. 

[Vesper 28,764]

GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR, just saw those 3 VAR's that FUCKED us in terms of the race

Chris Wood of Burnley got ROBBED of a goal that would have drawn with Leicester (2nd time in a row VAR has fucked him)

and 

 You will not see a clearer penalty than when Watford’s Gerard Deulofeu was brought down by Vertonghen and fucking Alli's game drawng 86th minute goal should have been chalked off for handball, clear arm, NOT shoulder

OUTRAGEOUS

FUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK VAR

What’s Gone Wrong at Tottenham?

 

 

simple answer

they are CUNTS, lolol

There's only so long you can watch our three rivals churn out what they're doing before this question is asked by more and more people. Even with our youth and inconsistentcy's we look streets ahead of all 3.

Pepe is class. Luckily Emery is ruining him

In the seasons - specifically from 2011/12 onward - where we didn't win or challenge for the title, we certainly did not make it easy for ourselves when it comes to finishing in the Top 4, even when the other sides are stumbling. Furthermore, you said it so yourself in the Lampard thread that things can change quickly in football (how many times have we started the season well in the past before things go south after like 2-3 months?). After the first 4 games of the season, we looked nowhere good enough for the Top 4 but 5 games later or after 9 games, we look good for it. All this can change for the worse again if we suddenly drop points here and there while others pick them up. At the moment, not too worried about United but Arsenal and Spurs, despite their problems, still have enough quality in their squad and they shouldn't be ruled out of the Top 4 just yet.

Patrice Evra could not have said it better last night. It's what every average Chelsea, Spurs, United, Liverpool fan would say if given one minute live on TV to talk on Arsenal. A soft club with probably the most delusional fan base in England. They think they are big, but they are not, they are just useless and deluded with an even more unlikeable, Europa League level manager with no charisma at all. 

At some point last night, the Romanian commentator said "Arsenal do not even look in the mood to play an 8PM Monday night match against a newly promoted side", sounding like they are 20 points ahead Liverpool and with a match in Munchen coming up in a few days. 

Well, if anything, this is a club that should be hungry for throphies because it's what? 16 years since their last major one? They have become completely irrelevant in both PL and Europe, a club with a set of fans with grandiose delusions. They have become an irrelevant club and will stay small and soft. Fuck Arsenal FC! 

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Good of them to drop points. Still a long way to go though so see what happens. Should finish top 4 based on recent results but it's October and we've played 8 games. Anything could happen. Shit spell, injuries etc. Nice that there's no one far ahead of us except Liverpool though after that disaster opening game!

I just don't think Emery is the right manager for this team. Usually you get better in your 2nd year, but I dont see much improvement. I don't remember aginst whom but I watched them twice this season. They looked awful. I understand if they lose some crucial player but they don't lose anybody.
