Re: The Tottenham Thread 13/14 part 2.

Awful, lacked any guile or movement, when the signings gel they'll be very good, at the moment completely bereft of ideas.

Try 'Angel Delight', gels lovely, that,

Re: The Tottenham Thread 13/14 part 2.

I'm not too downhearted about the result, yes we lacked a bit of creativity perhaps but it's the first time in many years we've had that much possession v arsenal. I don't think arsenal could have played much better but I think we could have. As some have said once the team gels I think we'll do well, liverpool have shown with a bit of patience and decent signings you can change for the better. We still have creativity in Lennon, Townsend, Chadli, eriksen and lamela so I'm not too overly concerned and won't knee jerk over a result away at arsenal

Ive always loved Dawson but he looked out of his depth at times today.

Yes, keep on 'Gelling,' by the end of the season you'l look like Elvis Presley and Gene Vincent.

With a bit of Ritchie Valens on top...pardon the pun.

Is AVB trying to get the gig in place of that gravel voiced yank who always promotes the latest Die Hard film?
If he speaks any lower he'll be on the floor.

Townsend was the best player on the pitch. Impresses me every time I see him.

Forgot about Eriksen as you've signed so many players. He could be the missing piece in the jigsaw.

Re: The Tottenham Thread 13/14 part 2.

When I see City fans getting all happy and creamy about Spuds losing away to Arsenal (another legitimate contender) I get scared. They bossed a good portion of the game. And they will eventually gel.


Walker.........Dawson.......Vertonghen......Rose
....................Paulinhno......Dembele.....................
...Lamela............Erikson...................Chadli.........
.................................Soldado..................................

At some point that 11 will gel, and they will be a handful for anyone.

This shit about 'Gelling' is used by all fans whose team has just lost. Your pre season was the time to 'Gel', the fact is your team, after around £90 million extra spend should not have lost today. There is now no time for any team, including mine, to fuck about with 'Gelling' or any other overused cliches, Spurs don't look the finished article by any means.

Sold Bale too late for that little bit extra so they did not bring in Lamela and Erikson early enough. With a team fully bedded in they may have won today. If they lose out on CL due to a couple of points again then Levy will make the same mistake next year again.

I think we would have gotten the Bale ball rolling sooner had the Willian thing not blown up in our faces. And I'm not sure that Eriksen would have been even been in the cards had that gone off. It put us back a couple of weeks and we may have paid the price for it today.

Not much of a shift today, but when you play a blinder of an international tourney with Brazil, I think a bit of hype is going to follow.

Re: The Tottenham Thread 13/14 part 2.

Having watched the game, my poor missus is making her way back, I feel that Spurs are showing signs of being a good team. They will need time to gel as they have a new midfield and a new striker. The most positive sign is that they appear to be better at keeping the ball.

The midfield is slow though. If Arsenal didn't waste so many good positions when they were counter-attacking, Spurs could have been battered.

It is clear to see that the best way to play Spurs this season is to hit them on the break.

Is it just me or did Townsend look absolutely shagged out from around the 50 minute mark?
