Spurs H Post Match

Quite a messy game that. Thought pep should have rotated more than he did. It’s a good win at the end of it all though and now it’s a straight 4 game shoot out. Nice to be sitting top of the table for the evening.
 
Their support is utter shite, generic tedious chants, singing wwywyws, I remember white Hart lane mid to late 80s many crowds sub 15000, and even below 10000, ironically this not long after winning 2 fa cups,the uefa cup, and finishing runners up to Everton in the league, and Coventry in the cup. They couldn't even muster 30000 at home to Watford when firmly in the title race this season. The new ground will be half empty very very soon
 
Just got home. I made the mistake of going into the souvenir shop to buy something for someone after the game, absolute purgatory, never again! Talking of purgatory our favourite torture the tram was at it's best again. Got off at Cornbrook and after three more trams had emptied and no sign of a stadium tram on the board I decided to jump the next one into Piccadilly and get the 216 bus. Wise decision. Unwisely I decided to catch the tram back after the game but in spite of it being 16:45 they were STILL packed. What an absolute joke of a transport system!

Onto the game. What a tough nervy performance. Hardly surprising given the efforts on Wednesday and the heat. Really gritty though and Bernardo is superhuman. Nice to see Phil get his goal, gutted for Kev again. Special mention to Eddy who after being at fault for a couple of goals over both legs in the semis was unbeatable today. Downside was Stones who looked like he had never played with Laporte before and was all over the place at times.

Spurs......what a fucking horrible side they are, kicking anything that moved, aided and abetted by that clown Oliver and his equally inept linesmen. No class fans too cheering Kev's injury. Please Ajax rip them a new one and please let them finish outside the top four.

Pep needs to give the team two days off now with just a light training session on Tuesday.

Please Cardiff kick fuck out of the scousers tomorrow and get a result.
 
Great win. Even better considering that the ref may as well have been wearing a Spurs shirt. Every 60/40 challenge or worse resulted in a free kick to Spurs. Then we have the 5 sythings only one of which resulted in a booking. Foul on Bernardo was definitely a pen. Overall shocking refereeing - a classic let's bend the result performance.

Great response today and a damn shame about Kevin, been one of those years. Get 3 pts at OT and this is over IMO

Very gritty performance. As someone who believes Walker is a liability, I have to say his work rate and willingness to receive the ball were incredible today

I think he had a rough start to the season, what with lack of rest after the World Cup, but after a slight break, he had returned immense.
 
MASSIVE 3 points today: the last 10 days will of took so much out of the players & staff both physically & emotionally. Nice rest for a couple of days before we face United who will have a tough game at Goodison tomorrow. Would love Cardiff to take points tomorrow & would be even better if it was Niasse who scored to get the win/draw.
5 WINS to a domestic treble (think If we win the next 2 it’s over then as we will have a clear week to prepare for Leicester & then the same for Brighton)
 
I’ve never liked spurs fans, they have this billy big time attitude about them despite never winning fuck all. Cheering de Bruyne injury and singing “your support is fucking shit” coming from one of the shittest support I’ve seen this season.

Not true - Spurs broke down the middle at least 3 times in the early stages. If Son had been as deadly as on Wed, that could easily have lost us the game.
 
Spurs mostly parked the bus and hoofed it long to Son, which gave us some scary moments, but we largely had them where we wanted. Spurs did what all the park the bus teams do - start attacking with 10 - 15 to go. We were fatigued after Wednesday but showed incredible guts and determination.
 
You know what. In this past week we've witnessed three very different but albeit high quality games against spurs.

Think spurs look like a much better team than I had the opinion of and looked so much better without Harry Kane too.

It's been very enjoyable (all 3 games) seeing two very good teams go up against each other and it has been a very positive advert for the state of the English game.

There's always negativity around from certain corners of the media when we should all be just sitting back and enjoying the high quality on offer from both teams.

Can't remember being so nervous during a game like I was today.

Delighted for Foden and his goal. Thought he tired towards the end and was rightly replaced by experienced legs.

That 10 minute spell in the first half when Sergio, Bernardo and sterling hounded every spurs player with the ball says a lot about our mentality.

What a joy to watch!
