Quite a few interesting comments in here. I'm sure many wont agree with this one but I dont think it is far off the truth, they've pissed a lot of money up the wall on Anthony for sure.


How long is it going to take for people to realise Antony is just not very good, neither is Garnacho and Rashford is feckin woeful. Sancho is no better, Pellestri shouldn’t be anywhere near first team and how the hell is Martial still there falling around? That’s 6 forwards there who wouldn’t get in the Spurs team. Stop kidding yourselves utd fans, you’re embarrassing yourselves.

I think Garnacho has potential and promise about him. People forget how young he is.

Its clear that fans from teams like Newcastle and Villa are full of jealousy towards us. They have watched us break the top 4, get to the CL final etc and wished/felt that it should of been them instead. Now they have had 1 season finishing above us they are trying to belittle us/make us seem like we are no threat to them. Its the weirdest thing ever to me. Finish above us 10+ seasons and then maybe you can chat shit but until then, do one!
This perfectly hits the reason we're so hated by everyone:

The above statement is true for the likes of Newcastle, Villa, West Ham, Everton while Utd, Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool all say this exact thing about us (lost count of the times Arsenal mates told me to "come back when you've finished above us for 10+ seasons")

Shhh don't tell them, we let them believe Martial & De Gea were decent for a few years so I reckon we can get a few more out of Antony and the top talent that is.... checks notes.... Mason Mount

Plus this new bloke they've bought seems like a very expensive punt.

No match thread yet, but this was in the Premier League 23/24 thread.
  • What has to happen on Saturday is that Boscombe have to go about Spurs like WE are expecting 3 points...attack them aggressively and do a fortress job on them.
    If we don't do that and drop 3 points ..that's 1 from 3 games.. then the season will go rapidly pear- shaped from there.
    Spurs are NOT a team we should in any way fear.. they are not very good ..nowhere near Liverpool or even West Ham I would say.

  • Rarely watch other matches but the last 5 minutes of Man U and Spurs has been entertaining.
    Hernandez with a big miss, minutes later booked for mouthing off, then Spurs hit the woodwork twice in less than 30 seconds
  • Those are the beer goggles talking
  • thought these snide teams would get away with their usual antics but its being consistently penalised
  • Two unlikeable teams. My boy asked who "we" wanted to win. His face when I said neither was one of great confusion
  • You’d be hard pressed to find more snitty, snidey unlikable players on one pitch at the same time, that’s for sure.
  • God I hate Spuds
  • Good game thus one. Hate both do a draw would be my result.
    My question is how do we deal with the high energy of both teams?
    We bore them to sleep then score the winner in the 98th minute
  • Spuds players going down easier than Gillian Taylforth in a passenger seat.
  • you can drive a bus through the spurs defence
  • tbf to Ange, he certainly doesn't believe in defending and holding on to a lead
  • Spurs will struggle for goals this season
  • Ange P's tactical changes and subs have been very good. Completely nullified Man United this second half. Imagine when he gets used to the league...
  • They have made Tottenham look better than they are.
  • Not sure how Ange would have implemented this philosophy with our players. Would we have had the players to do it?
  • Bissouma is going to be a very good player again this season, unfortunately
  • Think Spurs fans will enjoy their football a lot more under this manage sadly
  • Looks a great gaffer that Ange
  • Last year, Spurs lose that, imho
  • Really like Postecoglou, such a shame he ended up over there.
  • In true Spurs fashion, they do a lap of honour after just the second game of the season.
  • It’s a real shame that Spurs have a pretty likeable manager in Ange.
  • Play the best football in the league with a fraction of pep's budget

Arsenal Mania
  • I've got to say Bissouma looked pure class yesterday. Great press resistance and a wall in front of the defense. We should of signed him last summer.
    Yeah we totally should've signed him last season when he was crap for the whole duration of it
  • He wasn't though, he had a manager who barely started him. He was one of Brighton's top performers when he was there. Yesterday he looked more press resistant than Partey does.
  • It’s one game tho, head to head Partey will probably eat him alive
  • Sarr impressed me more. He played like a young Vieira and was everywhere.
    Ange had balls to start these out of favoured or young players. It's all about vision and style of football for him
  • They’re no threat at all. VDV looks like he’s got wellies on
  • Sp**s have a serious player in Sarr. Genuine world class potential to be a Paddy like figure. Those long legs and strides, sliding to ground early and still making the tackle reminded me of Vieira tackling technique.
    Now Kane has gone, If I could take one player form them. It would be Sarr
  • Sarr looks good but let’s see if he can sustain the performances to some consistent level. Udogie is another young one who looks talented - impressed in serie A.
  • Good Start for Tottenham this season. They can focus on creating a New Team style of play, without the Harry Kane factor.
    I think Ange Postecoglou (in a way) has nothing to lose. Having not worked with Harry Kane in this Team, he can create his own Team. Plus the funds for Harry Kanes transfer.
  • If they bring that wide open football here, we’ll beat the Kaneless Sp**s 5-0.
  • I thought this as well , we'd just cut them to pieces in 20 mins . Then I saw us play yesterday
  • I saw enough of that VDV they’ve got to know we will absolutely destroy them. He’s very flat footed which is a big problem with Ødegaard and Saka on his side
  • We'll still cut them to pieces I think.

    Its clear that opposition refuse to engage us in open play. They want play us like Everton does when we go to Goodison Park, which is to constantly defend and look for counter attacking play.
    What opposition fans want to forget, is that City are the only other team who went to Selhurst Park this year, and won 1-0. And City got a penalty later on and were down to 10 men as well. So good luck to any team who thinks they can do better than us there, this season.
    If Sp**s want to play ball with us, then it will be an open game where we can hurt them, and to be fair to them, they can hurt us. It will be who controls the game better on the day, and I think we are better equipped to do that.
  • As if Tottenham with Bissouma and Sarr is going to play the ball around against us lmfao. They will just play like Nottingham Forest and play 11 at the back.
    Saw Bissouma and Sarr have bad touches, needing time to control it against United who basically barely pressed them.
  • Anges men off to a good start, annoyingly enough Maddison looks way better way quicker than I expected. Levels between our two teams still, though
  • Sp**s will go straight at us , Postecoglou himself said he's more concerned about ingraining the style of play rather than points this season .At the same time they aren't very good playing out , Mancs pinned them for 20-25 mins . The version of us that played City will hammer them but like I said tonight our passing movement and pressing look off .
  • I didn't realise we are playing them at the Emirates . We will ****ing smash them
  • They will maybe score 1 goal across the 2 fixtures this season and we'll hit them for 6 or 7. Without Kane's guaranteed soft BS penalty every match, they have nothing to trouble us.
  • Never seen a more deluded club than Sp**s I mean i read some idiots saying Dele was better than Ødegaard and Wanyama was also better in his pump than Rice I'm honestly astonished

I mean Dele was 18 years of age and completely winning games for us constantly. Not as polished as Odegaard but the goals he was scoring and contributions he made were more than Odegaard has done.

Wanyama was just as good as Rice in his only fully fit season for us. He was an absolute rock and he could play as well. More of a goal threat than Rice too.

Up the Cherries has a thread for the match now:

AFCB Team News
Alex Scott, Dango Ouattara, Marcus Tavernier,Ryan Fredericks, Adam Smith, Lewis Cook, Emilio Marcondes and new signing Tyler Adams are all on the injury list

AFCB Player To Watch
Two players I don’t think we have seen the best from are Antoine Semenyo, looked very lively and not easy to brush off the ball when he came on as a substitute at Dean Court against West Ham. At Anfield he showed the same power and pace and took his goal well giving the keeper no chance. The other player is Hamed Traore, looked tricky at Anfield when he came on as a substitute and went very close to scoring.

Spurs Team News
Ryan Sessegnon, Rodrigo Bentancur, Bryan Gill, Alfie Whiteman and now James Maddison are all on the injury list.

Spurs Player To Watch
Second highest scorer last season with 10 goals was Son Heung-Min with 10 goals and 6 assists. Yves Bissouma has had two good opening games for Spurs. Player that hit the eye against Manchester United, was 20-year-old Pape Sarr, he was lively for Spurs and scored a good opportunist opening goal.
  • kirsikka said:
    I've got a good feeling about this game, as long as we can stop Harry Kane from scoring.
    Think this time it might just be possible!
  • Unfortunately, and I stress unfortunately, I can see us slipping up again. This is due to having injuries to key players i.e. Cook, Ouattara (Django), Scott, Adams, Tavernier and Smith. Again, unfortunately, you don't win football matches with key players sat in the main stand.
    However, I would love to be proved wrong.
  • I remember having some Spurs fans next to us last season, and their smug faces at the end still live with me so I’d love to win this one.
  • I'm pretty sure our smug faces at White Hart Lane made up for it, especially all the smarmy twats that were sat just above us, just after Dango scored. Priceless moment

They are mostly just bickering with each other so far and sounding like idiots

West Ham fan saying Spurs are going to struggle for goals this season when we've scored four in two!
What makes the Arsenal fan think our youngsters are out of favour?
And what the hell has gone wrong with the world when Bournemouth fans say something like "Spurs are NOT a team we should in any way fear?"

I think a lot of fans are just assuming because Kane has left we'll be an easy match this season, without having actually watched any of our games. I'd say it'll take a good 10-15 games for everyone to start taking us seriously.
