Another trophyless season for Spurs. How much longer can they hang on to their top talent before they actually grow some balls and go elsewhere to win trophies. Without Kane, Alli and Son they're very ordinary. Massive stadium to pay off. Basically we killed their only chance of winning it, and I couldn't be happier :D

What a great week for spuds! I couldn't be happier either!

 

Ponch has the perfect excuse though.......winning trophies only breeds egos, so definitely no egos (as well as trophies) at spuds then!!

It certainly lifts the spirits to see Tottenham bottling it left, right and centre.

The joy of seeing them losing is slightly offset when you see that Doncaster, Wimbledon, Millwall, Shrewsbury and Newport will all feature in the 5th round draw - whereas our season is effectively finished. But, hey, at least we have a wonderful, wonderful, charismatic manager.

We also have a manager that has won a league title, reached a semi final of the champions league and won a European trophy, unlike most of the P/L managers out there and certainly more than Ponch will win whilst he stays at spuds!

Accidental posting?  He made a real cock-up there.

When a post about Tottenham turns into another Puel bash   :frusty:

Unfortunately most posts will turn to a Puel bashing as there is such a huge divide into the opinion of the current manager.  

 

Whatever that case may be, it is nice to see Tottenham bottling it and for how many people say they are a great club these past ten years they can not even compare to what we have won.

But they're so good at finger tickling. Their handshakes last two minutes. They play at Wembley. 

 

They're a shower of shit that club. Awful players. Overrated manager. Insufferable fans. Knobhead owners. 

 

 

Apart from that they're quite a nice club!

Imagine this place if Puel came out with stuff like that.

 

i don't know what it will take for people to realise prem clubs don't give a shit anymore.

Liverpool have bottled more than Spurs have over the past decade, what have Spurs actually bottled? Because they weren't close enough to us to bottle the league. The Champions League semi against Juve? FA Cup semi last season? The narrative won't change now but they've never actually been in a good enough position to choke, Whereas Liverpool have actually bottled a league title, a Europa league final and a Champions league final over the past 5 years

They most certainly have bottled it over the last few years. They couldn't beat wba at home when a win would certainly have put more pressure on us going to man utd. They gave up a 2 goal lead against chelsea that confirmed us as champions and have also lost 3 semi-finals in the last couple of years. I would say they are serious bottle jobs.

So that's the new modern Vocabulary...when someone loses,they have "bottled" it..

Forget more than many  other teams..they keep getting  themselves in those positions. 

You have to be in it to win it!!!       The likes of us "also-rans" can only dream of having single shots once in 100years.

Then we have the audacity to be over critical.....!!

I only wish we could bottle a few more things!!

I realise it, I just don't, and won't accept it.

It's blown slightly out of proportion but there is no doubt they do choke. Plenty of examples you listed yourself. All they had to do against Juventus was avoid conceding two goals without reply in one half at home, sure enough they failed. Blinked before we did in the title race. First chance they got to really close the gap to Chelsea (West Ham away) they lost. Man Utd cup semi they lost a game they were winning in against a side they'd recently beaten soundly.

 

Liverpool get away with it a lot but Tottenham are definitely chokers.

Blowing a title they were odds on to win by losing a game they gifted the opening goal away in and throwing a 3-0 lead at Palace away. The manner they lost the Champions League final. Being beaten from behind in the Europa League final. Klopp's a very good manager but his record in finals of late is appalling. 6 defeats on the spin is poor (I get you will like Klopp as you've mentioned you're a Dortmund fan also)

 

And make no mistake if they don't win the league this year you can add that in too. They were 7 clear at one point.
