Spurs Thread - 2023/24

Well done Ange for putting that hack in his place about Dier. Hopefully over time these no marks will be banned from press room.

They've got to be the most pointless club to ever exist, right? Even 20 or so years ago when we were languishing and Spurs fans were giving me shit I could come back that we'd at least won the league in the past half century.

It's absolutely mind boggling that they've been there or about the top of the league for decades and have won absolutely nothing of note. They've spent nearly as much as anyone (but never as much as they had available, mind) and had some genuine world class players come through with nothing to show for it. Imagine being in a position to trot out a side with Modric, Kane, and Bale all in their prime and failing to do so?

They're the footballing equivalent of a handjob. Maybe they served a purpose a long, long time ago but they're certainly not relevant today, and everytime you come across it you're left both unfulfilled and sorely disappointed.

But, congrats on the cup in 81 Spurs. Just think if you'd won it 10 years later the internet would've been invented and you coud've read about it there.

They were always a decent attacking side with proper support, first English team to win a European trophy, they won the first ever UEFA cup in the 70s (europa league today) won it again in 84. We won the lottery and got lucky, god knows where we would be without Sheikh Mansour. Don’t forget pre 08 we last won the league in the 60s like them. They were terrible in the nineties but you know what? They did win the cup 10 years later in 1991, and were record breakers at the time with 8 fa cups. They have a loyal fan base and much prefer them to Arsenal & Chelsea to be honest.

Timo Werner inbound on loan from RB Leipzig.
The offside machine!
If Ange can get a consistent tune out of him, he's some manager.
What a come-down from Kane - and Son.

Just weird. Neither Havertz nor Werner were convincing at Stamford Bridge. Arsenal signed Havertz. That's working out well. Now Spurs sign this guy.

It's not really weird at all.

Werner has always been an increidbly hard worker and fast as fuck. That's the two most important things for Postecoglu, he'll do loads of defensive work and pressing, and then he'll be able to counter when the ball is won high up.

They've got a good squad player for £15m, who could be an absolute steal if Postecoglu can bring back his confidence in front of goal like he did with Son and Richarlison.
