Tottenham Thread

Can you imaging Kane in pink budgie smugglers?

Perhaps an even more sickening image.... Young Harry waiting, with his hair sprayed red, to cheer on the Invincibles.

Looks like we've found a replacement for Agent George.

Looks like he was a fifth columnist!

This Kane hype just gone mad. Yes, he's been fantastic. I love the endless enthusiasm, the energy, pressing, running that is also seen our other academy homegrowns but i wish the press would just take a step back and remember he's better judged at the end of the season.

He's gone through somewhat of a purple patch but fans should remind themselves home the sports press just love to overhype someone in order to rip them down.

I'd also like our fans to keep reminding themselves of our other academy players who are doing a fine job and running their socks off for the cause. Its this group of lads that have totally embraced the managers philosophy to create the type of "team performances" against Chelsea and Arsenal.

I totally agree with your observation regarding the hype, and you are right, people should take a step back and judge Harry Kane after he has more games under his belt. Turn the clock back a year and a bit, we could be talking about Adnan Januzaj at Manchester United. Remember all the hype about him after just a few games? He was going to be the saviour of English football, calls for the rules to be altered so he could be fast tracked as an English qualified player so a team could be built around him etc etc. Fast forward to today where he can't get a game and they are struggling to find somewhere they can offload him on loan. Of course Kane is an exciting prospect, no doubt about that, but that's all he is at this stage, there will come a time when he goes through a patch of poor form and the sniping will start.

Real Madrid are scouting Tottenham star Harry Kane amid talk about a transfer at the end of the season.

Kane has been one of the success stories of the season so far, scoring 22 goals in 34 matches.

Madrid were linked with a surprise move for the 21-year-old recently, and now the Evening Standard has revealed that the Champions League winners have been in England to watch Kane in action.

Real scouts have seen three of Kane’s recent games and will no doubt have been impressed with what they’ve seen.

oh dear sterling out, i'm mortifiedhttp://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/31106342

[rijit]

As as team tonight goes i'm hoping he sticks with the same starting eleven. Think Dier especially is most suited to this one as he's a better ball playing cb whereas Fazio's big strength is in the air and dealing with physicality. I'm always worried about Rose being caught out of position and letting them get in behind but his performance last time out merits a start again. Same same please.

make you right about dier, but i reckon he'll go with davies instead of rose gives less attacking wise, but a bit more solid defensively

but now sterling's out ,,, borine 2 ,,,mark up front???? i rate him but ,,,,, HAPI DAYS

[Chicog]

Ooooo on the FA naughty step for you

[rijit]

Decent game to watch . No shame

losing to the odd goal in 5 @.anfield. owen

saying it was the best prem game he'd seen

This season, seems he aint been.watching us . reckon it would just fit in the top half dozen but the best ,, nah. Anyways, i agree with what neville said, at the end this spurs team were annoyed they lost and tempers

were frayed . I really like that in a team,,, think utd ,leeds , liverpool in their pomp they just hated losing and almost see it as they shouldnt. potts has installed that mentallity into them And how about white hart kane,, made me smile.The futures bright. Close season time for rose to go !!! £ 265 for a cup final ticket a fuckin rip off ....but i`m almost tempted

Not one our better games of late but still give them a run for their money ! to be fair, Ibe was probably the difference between the two teams, can't see a Londoner sticking it there for too long so perhaps we can take him off their hands

[smokie36]

Good game that...shame not to take a point but well done to the mickey mousers.

[carmine]

A good game of football and maybe we could have been worth a point but the fact is, we gave the ball away too much, especially in the first half. We only have ourselves to blame and in fair dues to Liverpool here because they pressed into Bentley and Mason well, reducing our ball retention.

Seems like the ball hit a divert or something like for their first goal which may have hindered Lloris who looked very pissed off.

Liverpool did up their game and i was extremely impressed with Ibe who gave the defensively suspect Rose a torrid time. Looks a real weapon down that flank.

One a footnote, regards that cringeworthy self absorbed imbecile Super Mario. Someone like his manager should pull him to one side and tell him the silent expressionless bit after you have scored is so old in the hat now and the walking off the pitch alone, trying to catch the cameras and put on the "i'm so enigmatic" bit just makes you look an even bigger <deleted>....if that were possible.

[Chicog]

Ooooo have some bitter with your sour grapes.

[StevieH]

markovic's shot bobbled a wee bit yeah but i'd still expect a goalkeeper of lloris' quality to save it.

Oh yes i agree. Think Lloris was a bit embarrassed tbh. He knew it should have been saved regardless. Bit harsh to pick holes in him, this season in particular. He's been fantastic but i wish he'd save those ones for the likes of QPR.

Theres a number of United players that have regressed since LVG took over. Intact the only one that he's improved is Young! De Geas been very good but the goalkeeping coach takes the credit there surely.

The way your team is playing that is so very true.

[alfieconn]

One thing that's good to see in the last couple of game is that that has been the youngest team put out in the premier league this season !

[rijit]

Lots of good things to see in this team alfie, not the least the hunger and the self belief. With a bit of fine tuning ie more fire power up front and maybe a little tinkering at the bac, could we challenge the chavs or man city? Probably beat them on the day but atm over a season i reckon we' d probably struggle but i dont reckon its that far away

what a waste all the money from Bale's sale down the drain....only a handful 'imports' made their mark.

It wasn't all wasted money. As the weeks go by players are improving too. Ofcourse Soldado's been a flop and Chiriches simply not up to the required standard but to say its wasted money is simply not the case.

As i understand it Pochettino watches all the youth teams on a regular basis so i hope and think we can expect to see even more youngsters coming through the ranks.

I'm now actually excited with the team and getting more and more impressed with the attitude that our manager has installed in the squad. Those who were not prepared to work hard enough and embrace his ways have been rooted out and players such as Vertonghen that didn't get on with Sherwood have improved massively in performance and attitude our Poch. Dembele is improving with every game and even Paulinho is starting to show willing.

Forget about the disappointing loss at Anfield, these are good times to be a Tottenham supporter and signs are were going to continue to improve.

Yep, the transitional period is going very smooth,just need to get rid of some of the dead wood at the end of the season, bring in a couple of experienced players, bring back the likes of Pritchard and Ali from loans, all the youngsters a bit more experienced and we should be up and running for next season !

[tmaker]

ONLY IF LEVY can see !!!!!!!!

just too impatient...any manager needs time to change/instill the right mental attitude. but not too long !! 2 to 3 seasons is ok I think...not 0.5 or 6 seasons !!
