When all your team has won in the past 25 years in one shitty league cup, when you have been your bitterest rivals bitch for decades, I'd probably find a successful team to latch onto and troll too.
Harry Kane - 2015/16 performances
- Thread starter Kostur
- Start date
Bless him
I almost feel pity for him...the excessive trolling is almost a cry for help....supporting Spurs and going through what their fans have had to endure for many years would break many a man...Thats why I understand why he does it, and dont really get offended by it , but rather i am baffled why anyone even falls for it anymore.
Its the laments of a damaged Spurs fan who knows they are finishing behind Arsenal again this year, so goes after the biggest dog in the yard.
I made a bet with a friend around 2005 or 2006, the first time when Tottenham put a top 4 challenge destroyed on the final day by mere food poisoning at West Ham (
), that Tottenham will never finish ahead of Arsenal in the next 25 years. There have been times when he called me out on this, Spurs were doing well and Arsenal were doing apparently not so well but I've always been calm about this.Another similar bet I had was that Radwańska will not win a Grand Slam in her career.
The bookies usually pay out early on such bets..just 15 more years to go, piece of cake. If he(your friend) was wise, he would start paying in installments now ..I made a bet with a friend around 2005 or 2006, the first time when Tottenham put a top 4 challenge destroyed on the final day by mere food poisoning at West Ham (
Another similar bet I had was that Radwańska will not win a Grand Slam in her career.
Knowing Women's tennis, the second bet is much riskier though..Just look at this year's US Open final.
Reading the shite that Glastonspur has posted year after year has actually made it sweeter when we beat Tottenham. I never used to care about them one way or the other, they've been mostly mid table non-entities in my lifetime, but now it's extra nice when we take 3 points off them because I know it'll wind him up.
As for Kane, I still think he's good. The goals will come.

Guys, there's something very exciting that I'm proud of that I must tell you about.
After 6 (six) games of Premier League season 2015/16 I've amassed exactly the same amount of goals as Harry Kane.
Hooray me!

He's struggling. Got in some really good positions yesterday but he's is hesitant. Too slow to get his shot away which wasn't the case last season. his confidence is very low but he's still showing glimpses of his quality. His first touch and passing is still very good, especially the latter.
Closing on 700 mins since he last scored a goal. Clinical.
He's been unlucky, that shot from the corner cleared off the line was worldly. Had 2 disallowed nos too.
Whilst I like nothing more than taking the piss out of Spurs and agree the hype around Harry Kane last season was ridiculous I would like to point out that its a bit rich to accuse Glaston of trolling when he actually was baited into starting these arguments in the first place! Its like you invite him in then whine when he gives a defence.
I fully admit my post was not meant to further any sort of discussion but just to point out how Spurs are Arsenals bitch to a ridiculous extent. They just lost to them at home in the mickey mouse cup. I can't think of a more one sided "rivalry" tbh. Maybe Atletico Real before Simeone
You're accusing me of vile acts Rob, I've invited Glaston here to share his wisdom regarding transfer fees, United's transfer and spending policy and his insight straight out of Levy's mind.
I am disturbed at how easily he took the bait though.
It's pretty easy to get overly defensive when your team looks like a pile of shit and plays like one since beggining of the season I believe, especially when on top of that you're not getting points.
think you'd know a thing of two about it though
Didn't see the game but that volley attempt was brilliant from him
Its only a matter of time till he gets back to scoring. Its pretty obvious that he has real quality.
So... he's been my fantasy captain every single week... and this was the week I finally decided to take him out of my team altogether.
What a wanker.
What a wanker.
Dominated Otamendi and Demichelis
Was this in another dimension?
Another bang average display with an open goal that never should have stood.
Continues to impress me with his creativity and unselfishness. I am starting to think he could have a Benzema type career of setting up wide goalscorers and religiously going 1 in 2 every year by virtue of being a good shooter (in his case low and in Benzema's high) and a decent aerial threat.
His goal was far more difficult to score than many may think.
Agree, it came to him at an awkward angle and speed and it bounced just before he hit it, many would have shined that over the bar. Errickson and Son are going to make a big difference to his scoring because the rest just are not creative enough.
with the hold up play that Martial seems to offer, which we lacked before, id cool any interest in Kane and rather develop the former further,with also consideration to the prices involved, and would rather go for right foward that can interchange , so that our front 3 can change positions.
Yeah his goal was quite hard and very well taken, and overall that was a pretty good performance from him, got a couple of very good shots away. Not the rampant displays of last season, but I think Spurs' fans would be encouraged by what they saw today.
It was a very difficult finish.
Seems a bit strange to see Hodgson celebrate his goal like that. I don't think he celebrates a goal by every English player that way.

I think with him and Rooney having big goal droughts in the league it was a relief for him.
There are some players who when you watch just have it, he is one of those players, his touch, technique, passing everything is top notch and even on his worse days they don't get get shit. He may not be scoring freely, but its obvious he will become a very good player and if we ship Rooney next season, i will be delighted to have him with Martial up top.
The Kane-train is up and running. Are England playing San Marino any time soon? Rooney and Kane must be thrilled.
he's started to score lately, happy for him. A goal is a goal
Scored an OG today, taking his net goal tally this season back down to zero.
Still just the one goal this season (and 0 assists).
Is he the biggest young English fraud since Francis Jeffers?

90 million pounds my ass.
A lot of finishes last season were instinctive, it's not like he tries to place the ball when shooting. Blindly blasting the ball can work only so much.
His all round play is still very good but his finishing seems to have deserted him.
His hold up play and creativity is still very good, he isn't playing poorly he's just lost a bit of confidence in his finishing, once he gets a couple he'll be back.
Played well today.
It's the finishing touch that's gone so far. He still holds the ball up very well and good agility and link up to create the chances.
Anyway...his season starts in November.

He's so sluggish.
He's almost infuriating to watch (when you want him to do well).
He's 22 but he's a bit like what Rooney has become in his latter years, except somehow even less prolific.

I really like him and if he is out of the team by the end of the season we should snap him up cut-price
FFS, We are Manchester United. If he's struggling with pressure at Spurs, just imagine dealing with the pressure at United. Thats why I didnt want us signing him last season, feared something like this would happen.
