    Football tactics

    There doesn't seem to be any overall football tactics thread so putting this in here. Found this article in Athletic really interesting. Always wondered what where the triggers for when teams went full on press and this article outlines it well. The second link is archives version of it so...

    Lack of leadership

    Our captains let us down last night, non more so than Romero obviously. We started like a train and Chelsea couldn't cope with us. The match changed after Udogies tackle which seemed to be the point where we abandoned playing football and just wanted to kick the shit out of Chelsea. Why didn't...

    Fighting in the stands

    Got a text last night from someone I know saying there were fights in block 51 last night and going through social media it seems like there were fights breaking out in multiple sections of the ground. Have never known this to happen in 30 years of supporting spurs. Any idea what fans are...

    Where do we go now?

    So another terrible performance this season but this time in a final which coincidentally makes it 4 finals In a row were we have not scored. The fact we played like that isn't exactly a surprise considering how we have played for the past 2 seasons. What I'm thinking of now though is where...

    Furloughing staff

    How does the club's decision to furlough staff sit with you? Does it make a difference to how you feel about the club? I'm not one for grandstanding or for taking the morale high ground just because I can but have to admit it sits really bad with me. Given the amount I have invested in...

    https://www.independent.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/champions-league-superclubs-liverpool-man-utd-barcelona-real-madrid-a9330431.html Be warned this is a very long read but it is brilliant. Way too long to paste into here. Interesting how we were the first ones to sidestep Rule 34...

    Injuries

    So we have Kane out for rest of season but any updates on the other absences. Winks Dier Sissoko Lamela Aurier We badly need these lads back for semi and to ensure we actually finish top 4 as we need some of them to start and also for options off the bench.

    Jan Vertongens contract

    Is it true that his contract is up end of season? Not like Levy to allow such an important player to run it down. Be a huge blow to lose him and potentially Toby in same year.

    Getting to and from Wembley for CL games

    Definitely want to head to a CL game but trying to figure out best way to do it. Do you reckon you could get back to Gatwick or other airport using train after the game? Best case would be get train back out close to gatwick after game, stay in hotel there overnight and then early flight back...

    Player interactions

    Has anyone else noticed our players don't acknowledge passes intended for them that havnt quite made it because they've been intercepted or hit slightly too hard? Its so rare to see one of them turn around and give a thumbs up or clap for an intended pass. Its become one of those things that now...

    Ramsey & Sir Les

    Tim is getting a lot of stick over his tactics and team selections such as playing eriksen on left instead of in a central position, giving Kane a start in such a massive game, playing 442 against the scum leaving the scum outnumbering us in central midfield etc etc What i would like to ask is...

    Rooneys new contract

    I know its coming from the Sun but seems to be generally accepted that their story is true about Rooneys new 4.5 year deal at 300k pw. This deal will make him the best paid player ever in the premiership. I suppose the big question i have here is why? Is he the best player in the premiership? I...
