win at West Ham. There was to be no repeat of the shock result of last season. Right from the off Spurs were at their game, and the 3-0 lead after an hour hardly flattered Spurs, they could have had more. West Ham were really poor, I had expected better, but they seem to just resort to long balls or crosses into the box, in the hope they may just get their head to something, which ultimately they did do.
Kane lead the line superbly again, he really does seem to be getting even better, if that is possible, and whilst I thought Ali had a pretty poor overall match, he was still involved in a couple of the goals. Sissoko I thought played well, probably his best game for Spurs. Aurier had a good game until his unfortunate sending off, the first yellow should never have been given. Verts was superb at the back again, although the two West Ham goals could have been better defended by the back four, but hey ho, that is being slightly pedantic. Eriksen was good again, he is another player that is vastly underrated by the media, lovely strike for his goal.
Just seen all the so called penalty calls for West Ham again, and not one of them was a penalty in my opinion. The last 20 minutes were slightly frantic, but over the whole course of the match, Spurs were well worth their win.
Very Happy with the way things are going.

Kane and Eriksen are definitely the most important two, without them we would be fairly ordinary to be frank, even with dele
Levy needs to pay them what they are worth before somebody else does. It’s that simple
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That is a bit unkind to say Spurs would be pretty ordinary without Kane and Eriksen. Sure they are two of Spurs best players, but then that is being a disrespectful to players like Lloris, Toby, Verts, Dembele, Ali, etc, who are all part of an excellent team.

Sandy , some rival supporter said the other day. "When ever Spurs score, it's always Kane, Ali or Eriksen " .... errr well that's obvious you dope considering they are our 3 attacking players people can't say we are a 1 man team so we are now a 3 man team ridiculous how certain rival supporters will jump on anything despite it being a pathetic attempt at belittling a fantastic Spurs side who have quality all over.

Don, I know it is ridiculous. They say take Kane out of our team and we would be average. Take any top goalscorer out of any team and where would they be. Messi and Ronaldo have scored about 600 goals for Real and Barcalona, take them out of the team, and see what you are left with.
It`s a nonsense argument.

Totally mate. It's jealousy that's all it is. Every rival
Wishes they produced an an a academy product as good as Kane upfront. They rely on spending the likes of 80 mil on Lukaku and Morata. We got our beast from our own backyard and didn't pay a penny

Think Alli didn't get enough praise for last season, 18 goals in the league at 21 mental numbers for a midfielder, if Pogba did that we'd never hear the end of it

Alli should get better as the season goes on. This has been a recent common trend for Spurs.
Great result. I honestly think we'll get more away wins than home wins this season, even if that may be obvious right now. I'm starting to believe the players are putting in more effort into away games to make up for Wembley, or there's something psychological going on there.

Spurtle , that's the frustrating thing. Imagine our Wembley form was up to scratch with our white hart lane form? We would be pi*** this league. Once again we are going to miss out on the title for a particular reason and this season will be because of Wembley really frustrating. If it ain't f*** those small time long ball merchants Leicester getting a once in a blue moon pit luck title win, its bloody Wembley hampering our chances.

This is the year - and the team - we should win the title.
We beat Wet Spam. Now lets hope we stop dropping points to teams like Burnley and Swansea, and we win the matches we should win - like Chelsea.
Gotta beat the Wumberly spell.
