''Fuck off Mourinho
Fuck off Morinho''

Smashed em and didn't need to get out of 3rd gear. Stunning win.

Not to mention a blatant (and unpunished) dive to try and win a pen

Is he worse than Lamela though. Do Spurs only sign c*nts? (other than Kyle, but he was a c*nt when he played for them). Must be special training sessions.

The Sanchez face plant is just legendary.

Best thing about is that fucking Geordie lump on youtube tried to say it was a hoof from Eddie as if he isn’t known for his immense distribution. That is a precise ball taking out all of the spurs team ffs, unreal

I notice MOTD didn’t show or mention Lamela’s assault. Had it been the other way round it would have been a straight red, and if not the media would be all over it

Just watching it again how did he not even get a yellow for that tackle?

Lamella? Dirty fucker should have had at least 3 yellows.

I think spurs must have the opposite recruitment criteria to us, we try and recruit people with good character, spurs must always be on the lookout for cunts

One red and two yellows

I'm going to stick my neck out but I think this team, is the best footballing version of ourselves I have ever seen. I have never seen us control games as effectively. We have some amazing players but that should not hide the fact that Pep has built something greater than the sum of its parts.

Eddie
Cancelo
(two of)
Dias
Stones
Laporte
Zinchenko
Rodri
Bernie
Gundo
Sterling
Gabby
Foden

Unbelievable that team doesnt include Walker, Fern, Kev and Kun.

Hughes never had the defense organised and we were very up and down but when Robinho, SW-P, Ireland and latterly Bellamy and Tevez were on their games we were entertaining.

The true dark days were in the second and third division. We have pretty much had a great run since that Gillingham Play-off Final in 1999 (apart from one brief relegation). Keegan's side was wildly entertaining. I agree about Hughes. He was a total fool.

Great post.

How much of our new found defensive ability is down to that new assistant Pep brought in do we think?

Let's have it right Pep was never that arsed about the defensive element and famously once even admitted in interview we never practiced tackling or winning second balls.

The new guy might have played a huge part in all this but isn't getting any recognition blues.

I love the fact that apparently Pep came to see him after a game and said “I love your style of football, can we be friends?”, typical Pep, say it as it is. I know very little of Lillo’s history but it seems he likes to focus on getting things right from the back, and playing football from the back. I think he and Dias have probably both played a huge part.

Edit, in just reading up on Lillo I read that Stuart Pearce was close to signing Pep for us at the end of his career but at the last minute he went to play for Lillo for the last year of his career. It was in the muen so probably untrue but just imagine Pep trying to understand Pearce’s “tactics” - what was it you said about the pony boss?
