Has any team even got close to winning the league when they started out with Europa League football? Suddenly this Spurs team are going to do it? I don't think so.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Didn`t Leicester win it after finishing like 14th the previous season. In football fella, you just never know. Spurs have the players, just need to apply themselves.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Leicester didn't have Europa League, and that's what I mean. It's a draining competition that uses up a club's time and effort on it to the point they rarely finish that high in the league.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Fair point, but Spurs are starting from a much higher point than Leicester did. So no reason that a team with a World Cup winning captain, one of the best strikers in world football should not be competing for their domestic title. If Liverpool can win it with Henderson, then Spurs should be aiming for it as well.

Didn`t he get voted Player of the Year, which by definition makes him Liverpool`s best player.

and 1991 was the last time we won a proper trophy of note. absolute disgrace considering the players that we have had since then

to reel off a few..

sheringham
klinsmann
anderton
ginola
judas
king
davids
berbatov
lennon
keane
woodgate
lloris
modric
bale
kane
vdv
son
toby a
verts
walker
rose
alli
defoe
dembele

and loads more on top of that, and we haven't rustled up more than 2 league cups.

facking pathetic trophy haul over the last 30 years.

When Henderson doesn't play they do not do as well. This is quite a known fact.

It looks even more ridiculous when you consider one of them went on to win a Ballon d'Or. Like how many Ballon d'Or winning players have even come from the PL? And we had one of them, along with Bale and VDV.

Completely mismanaged by lots of Mr Nice Guys, and managers that won next to nothing at the top level.

well the numbers add up. i guess the fa cup is in the bag but im not too sure about the league.

Of course this isn't the first time you thought we'd finish the coming season champions is it

Sandy your optimism is admirable however it is misplaced I feel. I don't like Mourinho but he does know how to win trophies, the likelihood is that he'll win a trophy, it will not be the premier league.

Our squad just is not strong enough imo. Add in the fact that Levy will not fully back Mourinho I think you might be disappointed come May, though I'm not gonna complain if I'm made to eat my words!

Bernie trawling back like two years just to try to point score Is for like for 10 year olds. You post like a sensible fella, so no need for it. Just make your point. You are not alone though in trawling back through posts to try to prove another poster wrong.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not point scoring Sandy, just saying it might be best to temper your expectations slightly, your knee jerk predictions on what will happen have a tendency to end with egg on your face. I don't see a problem with digging out an old article to make a point. In a debate is it not best to have evidence to back something up?

Why trawl back, it us completely irrelevant to the hear and now. And you have absolutely no way of knowing, come next May, whether I will be right or wrong.

This forum is supposed be about differing opinions. Now you may not like my opinion, but it neither makes it kneejerk or wrong, unless you can look into nine months into the future.

Actually it isn’t completely irrelevant Sandy far from it. It’s an article by the same poster making the same overly optimistic prediction.

Sandy why is it a problem if I do dig up evidence to prove that you do get a tad over excited and make kneejerk predictions, because that's what this is.

Yes this forum is for differing opinions and it is better for it, however history shows this will most likely result in you being sorely disappointed when levy refuses to properly back the manager and we don't win the league.

It is completely irrelevant. It is only your opinion that it is overly optimistic, that doesn`t make it wrong, even if the same is done 100 times. It is an opinion. I don`t get your concern.

It`s not a problem to me fella. I just find it strange that you would dig up stuff from a way back and then try to correlate it with something that may or may not happen in nine months time. Very strange.

You talk about history, but next May is not history is it. So what is your point?

To cut a long story short Sandy all I'm saying is sometimes it is best to think before you type. A man of your age and experience should know that.

I never said it was wrong though Sandy I said it's overly optimistic. Also I think 99% of people would agree that a similar prediction by the same poster makes it relevant.

I couldn`t care less that 99 per cent of people apparently can see into the future and know for sure what may happen in May. I happen to believe Spurs have a great chance of winning the Prem, and that to me is all that matters, not what other posters think, they can post their own predictions.
