Trophies are overrated according to Spurs and Poch fans.
Carabao Cup semifinals
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
And then Lucas goes on to miss.
Spurs have the winning mentality of the England team which faced Iceland.
That penalty was sexJorginho
poch crying?
tbf Chelsea v City is a probably a more competitive final than Spurs v City
That's some reach.
Spurs, however hard they try will never actually go beyond what they are now. They'll actually probably regress when Poch leaves with his best players following suit. There is no room for them at the top.
Chelsea have ridiculous penalty takers to be fair. Still had Hazard.
But... but... Spurs' stadium 
Best team, bright future, attract talents, on the way up

Good point. Facing Spurs in a final is like giving the opposition the trophy from the start, just a waste of everyone time.
@GlastonSpur You were saying Spurs play for several competitions? How? I think you are going to slide down even in the EPL...
Spurs looked defeated the moment it went onto to penalties.
I was talking about the way he scored, not that he actually scored. Took the mick and would have looked stupid if he missed.
To be fair, they don't need to have world class players 1-11 to pick up a cup here and there.
Vindication take that you bunch of shithouses. Another trophyless season beckons for Spurs.
Spurs only compete for the 'big' trophies.
What trophies are they picking up? I see none.
Another "we put pressure on" trophy for Spurs. They are the specialists
Chelsea should have won it in normal time, tbh.

Pfft, Spurs have "bigger fish to fry", Fa Cup, CL and top 4 finish
No point tagging him. He ain’t showed up since our match. Given some excuse that he’s in India.
Jorginho was the best by far. He's been shite but I couldn't imagine a better way to take penalty.
That's my point. Everyone is talking about how this is their ceiling. Spurs fans might bemoan their lack of depth at times or talk about how great Poch has done.
They don't need to be better than this to win a league cup or FA cup every couple of seasons.
But they don't.
Woah, dont forget the all important Cheese room.But... but... Spurs' stadium

I can't tell you how devastating going out in the carabao cup is going to be for this club and its future.But... but... Spurs' stadium

Much prefer Chelsea in the final hopefully they beat City now. I don't want them giving them that title momentum if they win. Can't trust Spurs against City, all their key players would be out for it anyway.
How did it go?
Of course Dier would miss that. He's a nothing player.
Why do clubs choose songs that their fans can't even sing to?? The way the Chelsea fans butcher One Step Beyond every week is criminal. Makes me cringe every time.
City would have bummed us silly in the final with our injuries anyhow.
We gave it a good go, but ultimately fell short. Chelsea deserved to win it in normal time in fairness to them, but that's to be expected with the way our team looks right now. Just gotta hope we can scrape through the next month or so of relatively tame league fixtures.

Oh come on.
You've won two trophies in almost 30 years.
Don't act like you're above any sort of cup.
See this is why people laugh at Spurs.
Face it - this was probably your best chance of a trophy this season.
With the fixture pile-up and the injuries I can see it being a difficult few weeks for you.
Disrespectful to mention former members like that.

I don't, I'm pissed off. It sucks to lose.
It's hardly a big disaster which makes a mockery of any claims that we're improving as a club though, we lost on penalties in a semi final to Chelsea.
We were by far the better team over two legs, only VAR failures kept them in it.
Utterly beautiful that it would be Dier to miss the important penalty, vile player that he is.
Spurs fail in another big match, even with help, something has to give with them eventually.

Don't be getting ahead of your boots now buddy.
Because I'm trying to keep things in perspective?
Nobody likes losing a cup semi, but we gave the competition a go which I'm pleased about, and the better team won on the night. We've suffered crippling injuries and I'm not going to rip in to the team because we lost to Chelsea.
People acting like we don't care/don't try for trophies when we're putting out pretty much our best XI for these kind of competitions.
