Quiet before the storm... we hopeAmazed there hasn't been more rumblings.
Bar a couple of 'end of the road' pieces, it's been very quiet

I think if Levy was still running the football side of the club he'd get rid of Conte now, but I'm not sure Paratici will act as swiftly. He's Paratici's man and I think he still believes in him.
I think (!) the team overthinks. Caution, tentativeness, lack of confidence/fluidity/capacity to surprise are the symptoms. An analogy is to theatrical performance that I have taught for many years. When actors over think they tend to be wooden and self conscious. We see them trying to act out a role rather than 'be' that role. They improve by relaxing, taking risks, committing to those risks and not getting held back by fear of The Mistake. I cannot help but feel this is down to the manager/'director'.I was watching the highlights of this make it break match and one thing stood out for me, we just didn't seem to want it. There was no fight, yet we were only 1-0 down.
If we compare that to that night in Amsterdam and literally being down and out, yet the players found something extra to go and keep fighting. Forget the result, just the fact they fought even though they were in horrible form. That fight and passion just isn't there at the moment. The manager has to find it, it's literally his job.
I hope he does end up there at some point - spend an absolute fortune, and fail miserably once again:I can see him.ending up at Newcastle if / when they qualify for the CL, being bought the players he wants - because they'll spend - and winning the PL again
It is the Spurs way
Classic Levy.
Got to be kidding
Could have taken Son off, as they were playing so deep, he had no space to run into. But realistically that would have been booed too, because fans did not accept that 99% of the time, a forward is subbed off when a team goes down to 10.Here’s an idea. We could have moved Davies to CB (his passing and crossing had been beyond atrocious all evening so pushing him up was a waste of time anyway) then put Danjuma on the left to get those crosses in. Sure we might concede but that doesn’t matter. If we could make a sub that made it 20% more likely we would score but 50% more likely they would it would still have been worth doing. 0-0 was worth nothing to us
Got to be kidding
That would be cruel (not signing up for SC specifically.......but signing him up for Spurs generally)Maybe his parents signed him up as a 1st birthday pressie?

Child abuse, give Esther Rantzen a bellMaybe his parents signed him up as a 1st birthday pressie?
Shouldn't be hard to find a convincing looking wig for the lettuce at least.Is he still here? Fuck this, I’m off to buy a lettuce and set up You Tube link.
She better have a fucking good dinner on that table when he gets home after that
Well hopefully we're putting out the feelers to see what options we have. If someone like Enrique is actually keen for the job and he's the man we want then maybe we pull the trigger now, but if not then maybe best to wait until the summer and assess our options. Like, there's no way we can get De Zerbi until the summer at the earliest if he's the one we want.Melissa Reddy on SSN seems to have been briefed slightly differently on this video. ”spurs expect him to be in the dugout on Saturday but are realistic things can change quickly in football”. We are negotiating with someone surely?
