The Messiah, until they have to play more than 2 games at home.
You were saying?Surely the Liverpool game is what makes people go "ahead of themselves".
I didn't watch full game, just watched extended highlights. How were they robbed?you were rubbish when it was 11 vs 11 but yeah, officials robbed you in the 2nd half.
There is no way that’s a foul on the keeper.I didn't watch full game, just watched extended highlights. How were they robbed?
Offside goal was close call and other goal looked foul on Forster.
Also looked like Southampton were unlucky in the last min, when they had 2 players free to run entire length of the pitch, ref blew final whistle.
I watched post match analysis where they brought ex ref Dermot Gallagher, he said it's a foul by Doherty. Kasper Schmeichel had one hand on the ball few weeks ago, Forster had ball against his chest, that is deemed as GK in control of the ball as per the ref. Doherty then bumped into GK which made him to lose possession. This is the explanation he gave.There is no way that’s a foul on the keeper.
I see them setting up negatively. I don't see it ending up well for them.Last 3 PL games, Tottenham played 11 vs 10.
3 games in a row! Points? 5 out of 9.
Average.
The game against Liverpool, Robertson was sent off with 13 mins left. Although they should have won considering the amount of chances they blew.Last 3 PL games, Tottenham played 11 vs 10.

i don’t think it’s Doherty bumping into Forster. I think they both attempt to challenge and bump into each other. Forster then loses control of the ball an decks up. GKs are far too protected.I watched post match analysis where they brought ex ref Dermot Gallagher, he said it's a foul by Doherty.

Also for offside, he said this didn't fall into tolerance level, so it was given offside.
Ref said Doherty taking this eyes off the ball means he didn't make genuine attempt to play the ball.i don’t think it’s Doherty bumping into Forster. I think they both attempt to challenge and bump into each other. Forster then loses control of the ball an decks up. GKs are far too protected.
Maybe check their numbers before him and after he took charge and then comment???
Happy New Year to all in the mean time.
Yes he has not made much impact attacking sense, as today apart from the goal from Sanchez they were terrible. But we need to credit Conte for the change he has brought to the Spurs side. They were looking like bunch of uninterested gays in a lesbian orgy. Now they all are working hard and trying atleast.He hasn’t made an impact in an attacking sense at all. All well and could making them hard to beat but they aren’t getting top 4 with forward play like that
HE has transformed us from what we were under Jose and Nuno, night and day. At home we are fine away when teams park it we struggle for sure, he needs signings this month.He hasn’t made an impact in an attacking sense at all. All well and could making them hard to beat but they aren’t getting top 4 with forward play like that
this is factually incorrect. They have improved by literally every metric. With excellent signings, they'll only improve. Btw, the importance of grinding out 1-0 wins even when you're playing poor cannot be understated.He hasn’t made an impact in an attacking sense at all. All well and could making them hard to beat but they aren’t getting top 4 with forward play like that
He's a defensive coach first.He hasn’t made an impact in an attacking sense at all. All well and could making them hard to beat but they aren’t getting top 4 with forward play like that

Stop using facts!Huh?
Games under Conte, xG/xGA(fbref)
Everton 0.8/0.5(first game)
Leeds 2/1.1
Brentford 2.4/0.3
Norwich 1.7/1.6
Liverpool 3.4/1.5
Palace 2.4/0.2
Southampton 2.5/0.4
The highest xG they managed before Conte was 1.7, against Villa.
Tell me how he hasn't improved their attack?
Because you are setting a low bar by comparing to Nuno and a demotivated Kane. They regularly had 2+ xG under Mourinho.Huh?

Isn't that exactly the manager who he should be compared to? It would seem logical to compare him to his direct predecessor when refuting the statement "He hasn’t made an impact in an attacking sense at all" instead of skipping him and going back to the one before that.Because you are setting a low bar by comparing to Nuno and a demotivated Kane. They regularly had 2+ xG under Mourinho.
I mean, not towards the end of his tenure? Actually looking at the whole last season under him, it was dire.Because you are setting a low bar by comparing to Nuno and a demotivated Kane. They regularly had 2+ xG under Mourinho.
They had 10 2+ xG games all of last season. Under Mourinho they managed 11 PL games of 2+ xG in a little over a full season's worth of games. 5 in 7 so far under Conte(of which we have fbref data)Because you are setting a low bar by comparing to Nuno and a demotivated Kane. They regularly had 2+ xG under Mourinho.
We are 6th, 2 points behind 4th with 2 games in hand, despite a horrendous start.Their run of games hasn't been that hard though so you'd expect them to create numerous chances against some of bottom 6 teams with front three of Kane, Son and Moura. That said their xG in most of the games under Nuno was abysmal.
Good win for them today but just not convinced they'll win that many away games in second half of the season to have a serious go at 4th.
You had a terrible September. Won your first 3 and then the two in early October v us and Newcastle so overall 5 wins from first 8 games.We are 6th, 2 points behind 4th with 2 games in hand, despite a horrendous start.
What has that got to do with Conte?You had a terrible September. Won your first 3 and then the two in early October v us and Newcastle so overall 5 wins from first 8 games.
15 points from first possible 24 points isn't a "horrendous" start ffs.What has that got to do with Conte?
