    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    I suspect he knows he’s stuck with these players for a while, no point digging them out when we have at least two months of having to play them!

    Player Watch Player Watch: Richarlison

    Big fish in a small pond, looks ok in a bottom 6 team but not good enough for a team with higher aspirations, even if those aspirations aren’t particularly ambitious at the moment!

    We need better songs

    There's a general lack of humour or creativity in the majority of our songs IMO...

    Harry Kane

    CL is not enough anymore, Kane has been sold a lie too many times and the time for him to move is either now or next summer. Levy has no credit left in the bank, and Kane being a decent guy is why Levy will probably get a good fee for him and save some face with the Levy Lovers.

    Player Watch: Clément Lenglet

    Poster boy for Levy transfer business… “you want Bastoni? Nah how about a bang average cheaper alternative who played for Barcelona surely that means he’s decent?!”

    Are we too obsessed with Arsenal?

    I find it a bit awkward gloating about them bottling the league when we have been nothing short of a disgrace. Their future is rosier than ours...

    Ex-Manager watch: Antonio Conte

    Spot on - the mere fact that he sacked Mourinho a week before a cup final because the cost to sack him if he won a cup would be greater just about sums up his level of ambition. As long as we are in the conversation for top 4 that is all Levy is interested in - an illusion of ambition, as Joe...

    Only need to look back at the farce that was Nuno's appointment to see that cost cutting is everything to Daniel Levy.

    The Race for 4th

    with the money clubs have these days it's becoming a myth that top four is the be all and end all - a narrative banded about by Sky Sports to maintain interest. Chelsea won't get top 4 and they won't have a problem buying players in the summer, as will be the case with many others. If you pay...

    Player Watch: Clément Lenglet

    Think the point is he wanted to go to Arsenal until Chelsea offered more money - so money did talk ultimately.

    Player Watch Player Watch: Yves Bissouma

    He has to start with Bentacur against Fulham - technically he is twice the player Hjojberg is. Be nice to play 3 in midfield and actually try and control a game for once but we know that won't happen.

    Player Watch Player Watch: Rodrigo Bentancur

    Yeah recall him just about getting over the line against lower to mid table opposition and getting absolutely destroyed against anyone decent!

    Your 1 favourite Spurs Player of all Time

    Favourite player to watch live - Ginola (a ray of sunshine in an otherwise turgid era!) Favourite player to watch on TV (bit too young to see him live) - Hoddle Honourable mention - VDV

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    Whilst he is a frustrating player he is the only midfielder who can spot a pass and until we have somebody else in the squad who can provide that (and play longer than an hour) then we have to persevere with him. Play him and Lo Celso together for the next few games and see if they can build a...

    Dele Alli at Everton

    Just painfully slow and no longer a threat in the final third. Think he just hasn't turned out to be the player people thought he could be. Won't be the first that's happened to.

    Adama Traore

    If he had a final product we wouldn't be in the running for him!

    ENIC...

    Why are we the only club that positions our fans in the nosebleeds so we can show off all that lovely advertising still?? And then not coming out to applaud those poor souls who forked out £60 for the privilege of watching that sh*t. ENIC are an absolute disgrace and the club stinks because of...

    Harry Kane

    He really needs to leave now - another example of a player who has outgrown the ambitions of the club. Good luck to him, he deserves to win trophies.

    Matt Doherty @ Atletico Madrid

    Genius decision to buy a player who is clearly only marginally effective as part of a back five when you only ever play a back four.

    Harry Kane

    Unfortunately, like many players before him under this current management (ENIC), he has outgrown Spurs.
