Went to the game today, played pretty well but City are nothing without Silva, the equaliser absolutely killed them, couldn't believe how much their heads dropped, Citeh have a poor mentality and its definitely a problem for them.

Happy for Lamela, played really well, Dier continues to impress and the defence looks much more comfortable with him shielding the back four, happy for Kane to finally get his goal, watch the goals start flowing now.

Guess those moaners at the start of the thread and those who couldn't wait to stick the boot in haven't got anything to say now...

Was really noticeable today and actually thought they had mentally given up while there was still 10-15mins to play. Pretty shocking from 'Champions'!

Said the same about your Trolling. But you don't have the common sense.

That's your stock phrase, isn't it? I wipe the floor with you every time. Remember when you referred to Pochettino as an Argie? Doing pretty well, along with another one today. Criticise if you like, but give praise too.

Right, I'm out on the lash. COYS!

So a lot of people were wrong then......including you!

Nope.

Your viewing this all in hindsight. Very brave of you.

Really good 2nd half performance from us! Surprised how City crumbled so easily! Thought Lamela was excellent today as was Dier! Happy for Harry to score hopefully that will get his confidence up. Clinton did really well when he came on!

On a side note i was surprised the big screen showed the Walker offside for Dier's goal.... Assume that was a mistake.

Now hopefully England can round the day off by smashing the Welsh!

I didn't see a four or five hundred million pounds worth of difference between the two sides today regarding quality, just less experience. The good news is that Poch is building the next Kolarov or Sterling, or Fernando and not just buying them in.

Much more enjoyable watching a growing team win, than one winning that comes in a ready made kit.[/QUOTE]

Hope he is not building the next Fernando! Average player

And incredible considering how much Sterling cost that he shoots like Lennon back in his heyday

But agreed. Organic development with a sprinkling of sensible acquisitions is much more enjoyable- hard in the oil money era for that to win titles unfortunately but whatever success we do achieve will feel v sweet

My stock phrase is correct though. I mean what has Poch and the word Argie (that i correctly used) got to do with a thread on Eric Dier?

Here you go:

Troll:
In Internet slang, a troll (/ˈtroʊl/, /ˈtrɒl/) is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1]extraneous, or off topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the deliberate intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion.

Anybody know where I can get a download of the match?

On my way to the game today and got a call saying my mother in law had been taken into hospital. Turned back and headed home to look after my daughter while the wife headed to the hospital. Luck of the Irish, my arse.

We beat Man City 4-1 and still the match thread has an ongoing argument.

I reckon we could win the league and this thread would merely be an argument about how the ribbons should be hung from the trophy.

Can't some of you ever just put your feet up and enjoy a win?!

Not surprised after calamity Walker strikes again lol

Listening to it on the radio and it's same old same old disjointed Tottenham.

I'm sorry but there is no way that goal is Walker's fault. Disjointed Tottenham maybe. Players need to take risks and that was good vision by Walker. It is NOT his fault we only had TWO men behind the ball when Erickson didn't read the pass on their 16yrd line. Come on. TWO men behind the ball against City? The exuberance of youth.

5 behind, 5 ahead of the ball is risky against City. 4-6 is asking for it 2-8? Fuck me. Still, they didn't do it again and lesson learned.

Loved that win. That result has been coming.

I'm seriously pissed off that City fans keep saying our two offside goals were at key times whilst totally missing that their first came against the run of play and was offside, which is clearly a key moment. They also should have lost dimichelis (sp?) whose foul outside their box was a second yellow all day.

Yeah decisions did change the game, but they weren't only in our favour

Indeed. Without the offside goals it would have been a convincing 2-0 win

Its funny how the MOTD pundits hardly even mentioned the Man City offside! Like it never happened...

And without Son's touch from Chadli's header it would have been 3-0.

Obviously it's not as simple as that. The whole momentum of a game swings on decisions (for instance, there's no telling how both teams would have gone on to perform if Oil Money's first goal was correctly disallowed), however we deserve credit for coming back from a goal down in the way that we did.

The pass was fine and correct
Eriksen completely bottled it and should have made the effort to put a foot on it instead of shitting himself
I like Eriksen but he bottles far to many challenges he did however put a few in second half

Still a great win though loved it

I just re-watched the game and we were well on top for most of it, couple of decent Lloris saves apart (but hey, that's why we love Lloris). I reckon if we re-played today's game 10 times we would have won 8 of them. City were missing something and we were up for it. It's early days but like you say, really liking the fight we're showing.
