Why we're better than Spurs...

[mcfc_brazil]

Personally for me, the simple difference is Spurs play and battle for 90 mins no matter what and we don't also we seem to have a constant problem playing against physical teams where as they don't. No doubt we"re gonna be better than than them and and the top 4 sooner rather than later but with all fairness they deserved 4th last season as did we but they just had that little bit more than us, although this season I don't think Spurs deserve to be where they are now they've had one too many games where they don't deserve even a point and ended up winning. But the tables don't lie and it proves we're better atm.

If I remember rightly they finished ONE point ahead of us last year,twats like Collymoron creamed himslef over their "amazing" football and how our "negativity" had cost us.
They are the second team after the rags that have the most positive media coverage-the London press is crawling with spuds fans.
Redknapp is on the radio chatting shit more often than "call me Dave."

Secondly,we are still portrayed as being "boring" and yet somehow have a goal difference of +19...while spuds have +9....how does that work?

But there are still those who still believe they are somehow "miles" ahead of us,and 'arry is a genius..

We have better players on paper, but I certainly don't think there's alot of difference at the moment. Spurs seem able to raise their game when required, whereas we still just trudge along...

Not fully true, we have 2 points more with a game played more, having looked at ours, spuds and chelseas remaining fixtures spuds will finish 3rd, it appears they have learnt how to win the games you have to, we are still learning that

In the league Spurs will drop points at some stage.And their tactics are cross for the beanpole Crouch usually From Lennon. Cancel them out ,job done ,we are better and will finish higher. The negativity on here does my head in,unlucky to lose at weekend and a difficult venue with NOISY fans last night.Ballotelli is back. We can beat Spuds this year , come on you blues!

It's not negativity. We're just saying it as we see it. In how many games have we been convincing from start to finish this season ? Fulham away ?
I can't really think of a game this season where I've sat back and thought 'wow'.

Really? i'd swap their midfield for ours without hesitation.

Bale better than AJ - What? Because of one or two good games?!? behave
VDV better than Yaya - Different players entirely exactly my point....
Pienaar better than Barry - Possiblydefinitely
Lennon better than SWP/Weiss - Certainly faster consistently beats his man and creates far more chances
Palacios equal to DJ - NOT IN A MILLION YEARS YOU COMPLETE TOOL Strong in the challenge,breaks up play and an accurate passer of the ball,take the specs of and drop the insults.
Huddlestone equal to Milner - Maybe

Couldn't we also say that AJ has only had one or two good games ? Flashes of brilliance, but he's never really had a storming game from start to finish.

We can.

AJ is a talent,no doubt,but to suggest he offers more than Bale is madness.Bale is lightening fast and has fantastic stamina - no fullback can live with him.His crossing ability is second to none and he weighs in with plenty of goals.He can also do a job as a fullback.Off the pitch i would imagine he also lives his life as professionally as possible.

Simply put.
In the same domestic league we score more goals and concede fewer.
Over the course of a season if that continues we will finish above them.
