If we play like we did against Arsenal but with better finishing we should win. We should have scored more than a single goal against Arsenal, several reasonable chances went begging.

If we played like that every week we'd win the league, all the cups, the EL, the Cl, the European Championship and the World Cup!! (y) In fact if Woy carries on picking our boys we may well actually win the European Championships! :D

Would you drop any of our squad for any of theirs?
Would you swap our coach for theirs?
Would you swap their owners for ours?
Their stadium deal for ours?

No?

Thought not.

They only reason they are where they are is their mentality and earlier start than everyone else.
They're a mid table team.
There's certain players I would definitely consider taking.

West Ham were a southern league team till after WW1. Their first ever trophy was in 1964 and their most recent in 1980. Their highest ever league position was 3rd, once. They have finished above Spurs a handful of times in their history. They have had a higher average attendance four times in over 100 years of history. They are owned and run by pornographers. They were founded as a commercial investment, with none of the boy's own romance of the truly great clubs who made football for us. They had a spell in the 60s of mildly entertaining football but have nothing in their history to rival Spurs landmarks, for example of 'The Flower of the South' 1901 team, Vic Buckingham and Arthur Rowe's contributions to the development of the Mighty Magyars, innovations such as Push an Run and Ron Reynolds practice of the goalkeeper actually passing the ball to his teammates instead of booting it upfield, or Bill Nicholson's 100 goal per season teams. They've never come close to being the sort of club who could lead the country's attendance figures despite being in the second division, as Spurs did in 1950. They did contribute three players to England's 1966 WC winners but how shit must the rest of that WHU team been! And their manager of the time went on to be one of England's very worst ever managers. Contrasting somewhat with the ex-Spur, Sir Alf. Yoyo club.

Whats that got to do with todays game?

They arnt as bad as youre making out. They have a decent team this year. Ok maybe not as good as us, but this new stadium is a game changer for them and should push them on to where Everton have been the last few seasons. Games against West Ham are gonna get tougher in future.

Playing them off the pitch.
You're over estimating them.

Sad thing is if we didn't concede 4 today we would have won.

We have done well to keep it to 4 from what I am watching!

Could the Sky commentators be further up Tottenham's arse , it's embarrassing .
Well, they are the form team in the league and they've just spent the afternoon making us look like a bunch of drunken cross eyed primary school children.

Fair result. Second best all over the park and the scoreline flattered us. Onwards and upwards.

I'm shocked, just had a quick look on KUMB and they're all pretty much agreeing that we were miles better than them.
