2019/20 Rivals - Spurs | Bergwijn out for the remainder of the season

[Igor Drefljak]

I see Tottenham in that stick or twist scenario were it would cost more than feasibly possible to catch City and Liverpool, so just trying to top up the squad enough to keep top 4.
Like Arsenal of the last 10 years or so.

But I agree, it'll soon catch up to them. Reaching the CL final masked an average Premier League performance.
A squad that is aging. A few players wanting out. A striker that seems to land on the injury table a lot.

No signings last summer, one this summer (so far). More first team players leaving than coming in.
It's so far, a sign of a club that will slowly be caught up.

If Ole can get our team firing, I fully expect to challenge / finish above Spurs next season

Dembele was a burst balloon, Trippier had issues behind the scenes and wanted out. If we did indeed have a golden generation why didn’t we win anything? It’s bullshit putting us on the same level as any of the top 5 sides at this stage.

Agreed.

It's pointless discussing as you aren't going to realise why it's important to strengthen your squad and are content with believing that we are all brainwashed by 'noodle soup'.

We have strengthened

And the media is noodle soup, if u don’t realise that by now I can’t help you.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

He was good the season before .. he has basically the same amount of good seasons behind him as Ndombele. Who cares if it's just a season long loan? He still improves them next year and that's what we should be concerned about considering they were a point behind us.

You can’t seriously say that if you watched them play. Pepe is a *hulk* player power and speed with very little technique, he would do well in the PL but he is nowhere near the technical level of our guy.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Our friendly final is on ITV4 atm if anyone is interested.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

1-0 Nkoudo to Lamella.

Nkoudo seems to have been on the roids.

I said they had the same amount of good seasons behind them .. not that they were equally as good.

Although that said, I have seen Pepe quite a bit and I think your assessment is incredibly harsh. But that's just personal opinions.

 

[SquishyMcSquish]

Is it just me or is Lamela always great in pre season then the invisible man when the competitive season kicks off?

If there were a word for one more level past "mercurial" that's what Lamela would be. I thought he was going to tear it up for you guys when he signed from Roma but he has never played to his potential with any form of consistency whatsoever. Injuries definitely hampered him, but he does seem to be one of those players who has serious stretches where he's a black hole on the pitch.

He's seemingly always the player you come out of preseason saying 'this lad is going to have quite a season'. Then proceeds to get injured and miss large portions of the season. Rinse, repeat. So at this point I guess the only thing to say is that it's looking like he's going to have quite a season coming up .

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Sule is a fecking unit.

He is the polar opposite for us than he was in Roma, it’s what I worry for Dybala, they are very similar style of player at their time in Italy.

He’s a flat track bully, it’s effective, but can’t he do it up a notch needs to be seen. Like I said he could very well be a success but Arsenal’s problems are in front of their keeper, where they are weakened so far.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Kane warning up, looks bigger to me.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Who’s the Singh player at Munich? Looks lively or is he a comertial player?

 

[balaks]

Scared to even mention it but Lamela looks very sharp this pre-season. Fingers crossed he can somehow stay fit.

Busy and highly work rate, still not the player he was at Roma, still pisses me off.

Walker-Peters looks good.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Interesting hearing that Munich are struggling to compete with fees and wages with other elite teams.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Son and Kane coming on, Munich’s stadium look so good.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Eriksen too sorry.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

2-0 Eriksen

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

2-1.... gazzinga again. Still nice finish from Arp.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Coman seems to have been shot .

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Oh wait hes a alive.

 

[FootballHQ]

Spurs look good but surely you'll get an RB in. Foyth keeps on getting tight to wingers and they just knock the ball past him with ease. That's one area which elite teams will continue to target and get some joy from.

Foyth now injured anyway.

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Pen 1-0 Spurs (1 each)

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Eriksen with a dud

 

[FootballHQ]

Eriksen wants to leave then.

 

[FootballHQ]

Has Kane ever missed a pen, easily one of the best in world football at them.

 

[Wilt]

Kane probably thinking that’s how to take a penalty ....you w@nkers

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

All square after 5. Rolls with a cracker fair play to the kid.

 

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Unsalable.

[LilyWhiteSpur]

Nice to see the kids stepping up.
