Popular Post Hammo Posted 16 April 2017 Popular Post Share Posted 16 April 2017 3 hours ago, Koke said: I quite like Poch but he's being deluded and paranoid. We finished 11 points ahead of them. He's acting like we won the league on goal difference. On top of that we took 4 points of Spurs that season. Did Spurs roll over for us as well? Evidently a bitter, deluded and deeply scarred man. All this does is betray the excruciating agony Pochettino and his players felt (and still clearly feel) about the way little Leicester City ruthlessly and emphatically turned their title dream to dust. Love it. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess they must have cried again when they bottled it in the Champions League.... and the Europa League. And will be doing so again as they blow two more trophies in the coming weeks...

Sol thewall Bamba Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 Weird comments from Poch, also sets him up for a fall when they finish second because he's given himself no exit strategy for excuses. I wonder if he'll ever win a trophy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsX Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 You look at the quality of that team, and the fact that it is emphatically one of the youngest in the PL, and concede the likelihood of the SOBs winning at least one PL title. Then you consider the last stretch run, all choke jobs and meltdowns, including a certain game where their starting outfield was more bothered to try to injure their opponents with cheap shots than play championship quality football. Not just evidencing, but screaming a fragile mentality. This from Pochettino goes a ways toward explaining it. If that is the attitude modeled from the top, they will always go well when the going is good, and bottle when the chips are down. Long live Poch at Spurs.

MarshallForEngland Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 Some fantastic players in the current Spurs squad no doubt, but they seem to have a massive sense of entitlement and have developed an unbearable victim complex over the last 2 seasons. They are very good when everything goes well but as soon as it gets tough their bottom lips curl and they wallow in self pity, asking "why us?" and blaming everyone else for their shortcomings. If they had been humbled by last season I would find it much easier to sympathise with them this season but they appear to have learned nothing. I think we can all more or less predict the Spurs forums at the end of the season when Chelsea are crowned champions. Everyone hates Tottenham, Conte love fest, Spurs better overall etc etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number 6 Posted 16 April 2017 Share Posted 16 April 2017 (edited) Whining gits got Kevin Friend removed from the Stoke fixture too, but we're the ones who had it easy. Love how gutted they are by it.

leicsmac Posted 17 April 2017 Share Posted 17 April 2017 12 hours ago, Koke said: I respect Chelsea because they don't trot out cringe worthy slogans lime "the Chelsea way". Chelsea are a big club and a trophy winning machine, but they're not above playing pragmatic efficient football or parking the bus if needed. Substance over style. Then you got small clubs like Derby and West Ham who come out with "the Derby way" as if it means anything. Spurs also do that. Playing aesthetically pleasing football apparently means you deserve to win trophies. The West Ham way also known as the finishing 12th way. Im glad we don't have that embarrassing mentality at our club. You've hit the nail on the head regarding why I don't like sides like Arsenal and Barca, amongst a few others. They play (or did play) this ridiculous band of supposedly aesthetically pleasing pass-it-about football, and then their fans, with an unreal amount of entitlement complex, believe it entitles them to win trophies and get angry/sad when other teams set up to spoil such tactics and beat them. Like it's somehow unfair. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grewks Posted 17 April 2017 Share Posted 17 April 2017 So poch now considers it 'fair', because the shoe is on the other foot and they're the 'underdog story' of this season? The scenes at our place when we finally confirm chelsea as champions will be quite amusing. Do they get a trophy for finishing above Arsenal? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see Spurs as the underdogs and so favour them but this smacks of childish entitlement. "It's so unfair Leicester have performed better than us this season, waaaah!"

lgfualol Posted 17 April 2017 Share Posted 17 April 2017 Wouldn't be able to stand Spurs winning the league. The fact Poch thinks their club is unique to the world says it all - embarrassing themselves in Europe every year and being runners up is truly a miracle.
