What the pundits & media are saying about us

He’s managed to shoe horn Fabinho into central defence somehow.

He played there this week

To be fair....I think Fabinho played in central defence on Sunday.

Ok I know it’s pathetic to mention it but Harry Kane not making Garth Crooks team of the week!? 4 assists and a goal!

The geezer is an idiot. Some of the utter rubbish he's come out with over the years, it's almost like being in a parralel reality or something. Quite how he gets paid for his opinion is beyond me.
Other than that, he seems alright ?

Fair enough, I still think including three Liverpool players in the team of the week is a bit much. It was a boring game against a side down to ten men. Hardly one of the all time great performances.

Should’ve been in midfield ahead of McArthur or De Bruyne

Crooks has been a troll from day 1

 

[Gedi]

He's not a very good pundit to be quite honest.

I couldn’t believe that when I saw it this morning. He clearly has a dislike for Mourinho, so the only rationale I can muster is that he didn’t include him because José said Harry was the real MotM. Garth can‘t actually believe he wasn’t worthy of the weekends TOTW surely.

Your answer is in the last sentence of the piece...

"I must admit, I don't like Jose Mourinho's style of football - but if he wins matches like that every week, I'll suffer it. "

Another one of these footballing purists that believe the only way to play football is to replicate the Barca's tiki-taka style and anything else should be suffered.

Who cares anyway - it might be mildly irritating to see players overlooked but on the other hand, I guess that you have to see it as a bit of fun and not to be taken too seriously - like Lawro’s predictions.

On the subject of Crooks, time for a re-post.

 

[McFlash]

Crooks tries to sound intelligent and speaks with conviction but he's still a dimwit.

Need to change the title somehow urgh

 

[alexis]

However, the league is looking extremely strong, we're playing quite negative football, Jose might be past it, we have a horrendous fixture pile up and our direct competitors Chelsea and United both look like teams very much on the up.

[SpursSince1980]

Watched the ESPN FC boys this evening, spend 20 mins talking about utd and then jokingly said they should probably talk about us too. For five minutes. Don’t know what it is with their pundits but they hate Spurs. ill never forget the CL game when we beat Man City. They cut to the ESPN FC studio and it was like someone had died. Felt like a wake.

Honestly, if we were to ever win the league while their pundits are still gainfully employed, I’d put them all on suicide watch. Their level of disdain for us is unlike anything I’ve seen before. so, yeah, if we won the league, I think they’d completely lose their shit. All they seen to ever say about Spurs is how Harry Kane needs to leave and that Jose is a walking disaster,

fuck ‘em

 

[Gassin's finest]

You clearly dont follow Crooks' team every week. It's pretty much always ridiculous. Honestly he's just a fairly ridiculous individual altogether. I don't know how he's still on the BBC week after week. I'm sure he's a nice guy but fuck me is he hopeless as a pundit.

They keep him for the lols. Proper yiddo, but nuttier than a fruit cake.

 

[spurs mental]

Can't wait to see Garth's team of the week, with Watkins up front, Grealish on the left and Antonio on the right with Kane at left back.

That's an enjoyable read. "Shaw clearing out De Gea with a slide tackle designed to stop the shot was the inedible cherry placed atop a cake comprised almost entirely of shit. " in particular made me laugh.
