They’ll probably get a result against City and mess everything up
They really are a bit pointless at times

Well this has taken an incredibly patronising turnPretty close.
Bottle and glass is cockney rhyming slang for arse.
So when someone was scared/mentally worried they lost their arse (literally) and that became lost their bottle = bottled it.
Gotta love the English language?
It's the refuge of the mentally clichéed.Where does this “bottling” come from? With me being not a native speaker, I’ve only come across this termin in such a meaning a few years ago. I always knew the likes of “fecked up”, “wasted a chance” and a few others, but...
600m of debt added. If they don’t make the champions league for next season, plus they won’t have any money to spend, they are going to facing some barren years.
Many thanks, now it’s certainly clearerIt's the refuge of the mentally clichéed.
The premise is that whoever doesn't finish 1st didn't lose to a better team but threw it away due to lacking mental fortitude.
Unless you are as far behind as united were last season, then you're just outclassed. But the closer you are to your rival the more it is your lack of 'bottle' that it is all about.
I think it is more about being comfortably 3rd and supposedly in the title race to capitulating and suddenly as likely to finish 6th as 3rd that is bottling it or being 7, 8, 9, or whatever points clear then ending up losing out like we have done in the past .It's the refuge of the mentally clichéed.

4 defeats in their last 5 games. Back-to-back defeats at the new stadium. 1 goal scored in their last 4 games.Spurs doing Spurs things.
Aan I glad we didn't appoint Poch4 defeats in their last 5 games. Back-to-back defeats at the new stadium. 1 goal scored in their last 4 games.
But on the plus side..... the tills, they are a ringing.4 defeats in their last 5 games. Back-to-back defeats at the new stadium. 1 goal scored in their last 4 games.
Levy must be taking lessons from Woodward.But on the plus side..... the tills, they are a ringing.
People just getting defensive and butthurt.I find it hilarious that people like to poke fun at Spurs. What they've been doing is nothing short of phenomenal and they have 90 minutes to turn an open tie around to reach the Champions League final.
Even if they didn't, its a fecking great season all things considered.
Liverpool in 04/05Worst side ever to reach a CL final?
Serial losers. Pathetic team.
Kane?I think they played well tonight, but as we all hate Liverpool, everyone is going to say they 'bottled it'. They don't have the player quality Liverpool have and that showed.
Nah, they're a little shite.
Game passed him by, really. I don't know what else I can say from what I saw of him.Kane?
I think it's loosely connected to cockney rhyming slang. "Bottle and glass" means "arse."Why is it called bottling it?
Hadn’t played a game in however long. Was the biggest mistake starting him. Would have been better bringing him on, he’s have probably come on more up for it chasing a goalKane?
Yeah, definitely a mistake by Poch.Hadn’t played a game in however long. Was the biggest mistake starting him. Would have been better bringing him on, he’s have probably come on more up for it chasing a goal
