Premier Lg EPL Matchday 37 - On Optus Sport

[Jatz]

I'll be annoyed if City dont win it. As title races goes, this has been light. We had 97 and 92 points in two different seasons and still didnt win the league. If City choke now ugh... annoying.

Arsenal could finish on 89 points, a whopping 3 points behind your 92 point season.

As title races go, having 3 competing for as long as they did was actually great.

But it would be classic Spurs to pull out a random elite performance like we had against Villa and haven't had before that since November and win or draw tomorrow. And then somehow get spanked by Sheffield United

You weren’t that good against Villa despite the scoreline. Villa looked better before the goal and you pretty much scored with every chance you had.

It was the ease in which we created good chances though, we haven't had that since November

Refreshing comments to hear from Ange and some players that they don’t subscribe to the losers mentality of a large portion of their fan base.

Shots fired!

 

[Hamingja]

Shots fired!

I would wait and see what team he picks. Talk strong and then rest players for the weekend.

Shots fired!

I thought that was early for the new manager to be fired but then I read the h instead of an L.

Obviously doesn't barrack for a team coached by Hinkley.

Also calling out some hypocrisy from Ange in going out there in every game doing everything he can to help us win each game. With no European football, he chose to rest a number of key players for the Carabao Cup 3rd round against Fulham. Did he give us the absolute best chance to win that game and win a trophy this season?

He can't exactly come out in public and say he is going to tank the game. At Celtic he said they were playing to win the Conference League and then rested half the team on the away leg. That is why I said wait until you see the team he picks. He'd be well within his rights to say that playing 3 games in a week is too much for Maddison or VDV or whoever else has had a lot of injury issues throughout the year. Then if anyone accuses him of tanking he can just refer back to his comments earlier in the week. It's always the long game with Ange.

Yeah that's been my view on it all along. Don't need to be starting players for those 3 games in a row. And risk a few that have had injury records like VDV, Maddison and Bentancur.

Vicario
Emerson Romero Dragusin Skipp
Sarr Hojberg Lo Celso
Johnson Scarlett Son

He "tanked" harder with his selection for the cup against Fulham. We started Sanchez, Forster, Emerson, Skipp, Hojberg and Davies that day in place of many fit first choice players.

Fulham rested quite a few as well. So did many teams. It’s the Carabou Cup! Weeks later you got a ton of injuries ..may have been worse with extra game ..who knows.

 

[Cruyff14]

Hahaha this is great.

 

[Blueboys11]

When Ange was at Hellas, would he have gone in as hard to win a ball if it meant Melbourne Knights would win the title? I doubt it.

An entertaining 6-4 or 4-3 is the best we can realistically hope for with our side. I'm not one who wants a complete roll-over. An entertaining loss is basically all we've become accustomed to hoping for in the 2nd half of the season of Angeball. Don't want a s**t loss like Newcastle and Chelsea

Let’s just hope Man City turn up and roll us over 5-0. I’ll genuinally stop following Spurs if we hand the title to Arsenal tomorrow.

 

[moomba]

No chance Spurs players or fans will be anything but desperate for a win come kick off in a few hours (eek).

Good for a laugh beforehand saying you want City to win, good for a laugh after if we do win and you can say that you cost Arsenal a title. But from second 1 to the final second, everyone at Spurs will be wanting a result for Spurs.

Have been in a similar situation before (can't remember the curcumstances), in the long run you can't barrack against your own team.

 

[moomba]

Ha ha

 

[Frank Bunn]

Ha ha

Nice display but apparently Manchester City players were not staying at the hotel in question. Manchester City do not stay overnight ahead of Premier League away fixtures and were still in Manchester.

 

[Shoei]

Ha ha

Arsenal has ultras?

Come on now.

 

[moomba]

What a cretin

 

[TY24]

Surely there can be some technology quicker and more sophisticated than ref's in a room drawing lines for offside

There is and it's coming next season

This post sums up Tottenham supporters to a tee

But Ange claimed its all about trophies and giving us the best shot to win them. Playing Fraser Forster and Davinson Sanchez contradicts that massively

 

[jd2010]

Balances itself right back out tonight then?

I can hope, but not feeling confident right now.

Now the games about to start its a bit more of a hope we play well. Only result I'd be very disappointed with is a draw!
