Yep. The realisation that we finally have a 20+ goal a season striker. And he's one of our own.
The way he scored his second goal Vs Chelsea made me think we finally have a top class striker.

For me I guess I view the rabona as in a different genre from some of the more emotional wins. The rabona appealed to the sheer football fan in all of us, the reason we watch this game in the first place, to see incredible feats of athleticism and ingenuity like that unleashed. It's fantastic we got to see a Spurs player do something like that and it certainly generates a feeling of pride. Conversely, the wins against West Ham, Chelsea, and Arse are all there for strictly a Spurs fan, emotional basis. As such, it's very difficult to pick one way or the other as each were stunningly fantastic in their own way.
Curious...we have had Spurs players capable of individual bits of magic for years from the genius finishing of Greaves, to Hoddle, Waddle, Gazza, Ginola, its our trademark and our problem wrapped up in one ..... genius one week then more often than not abject and inconsistent the next.
Thats why for me the beating of teams like Arsenal and Chelsea and the way we beat them far outstrips any one piece of brilliance.
I was on the very back row at Wembley so it was a bit difficult to see. If you saw that as putting up a fight fair play to ya sunshine.
Think he might be refering to the fact we never troubled their keeper in fact i dont think he even played.
Well maybe he should've been more specific, I remember Eriksen hitting the woodwork at 0-0 and I remember a team of young players doing their best to try and win a game that sadly we were tactically outclassed in by a team/manager that is far more experienced in finals and big games than we are.
Call me crazy but hey, that's not a lowlight for me.
2. Chadli's goal against Chelsea. It put away all thoughts of a chelsea comeback.
No thats fair enough if your happy with how its panned out i guess at a success starved club certainly in recent memory a final appearance is a wonderful achievement.
As for myself i see winning as a highlight and have never enjoyed losing to anyone but thats me in a minority on here i would think.
We dont have winners on the park or a manager who craves winning as much as Mourinho, which like you said are a good team who have plenty of practice at lifting pots of silver.
For me the most amazing feat is actually staying in the top 6 teams this year as i honestly thought we would drift out to mid table land, so for that its ok.
Kane's header has to be the best one for all the reasons already mentioned.
The rabona was obviously a moment of class, but every time I remember it, it makes me angry that we've seen so little other signs of quality from Lamela and the other 'Bale-money' purchases.
Will you give the club a buzz for me next time so they can organise that. As a member with 400 points I did expect better! Nice one geezer.Maybe you should sit a little further forward next time.....sunshine.
