It's hardly a surprise you've scored the most goals in all comps given you've played the most games, and have played about 10 of them against Eastern European farmers.
I'd be worried if you didn't have the most goals in that situation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Remind me who Liverpool are playing tonight. Midtyjylland, a team of Danish goatherders.
They are still better than LASK, Royal Antwerp and Ludogorets...

If it results in silverware at the end of this season it will have been worth it, if not, serious questions will need to be asked.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Did you ask the previous manager serious questions after his first full season. That is all you have to ask yourself.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The previous manager wasn’t paid £15Million a year or heavily backed in the transfer market.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The previous manager spent £300 million on players, and oversaw the record Spurs signing. You cannot keep coming out with that old chesnut.

COMMENT ON THIS ARTICLE
and spending most of the game without the ball boring?
Are Spurs the equivalent of Greece at the Euros in 2004?
Discuss.
------------------------------------
Unable to comment on Sizzle's article, but I agree with him, other than the fact that Greece went on to win a trophy. Fully expect Spurs to be 15-20 points behind Man C and Liverpool come the end of the season.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yawn. As already pointed out, Greece scored 6 or 7 goals in 6 games. Spurs have about 50 in 20. There’s no comparison.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Very tiresome lot we have on the board today, the usual suspects, plus all the mousers still a bit grumpy because they are not top of the Prem.

Poch had Lloris, Rose, Walker, Toby, Jan, Eriksen, Dele, Dembele, Wanyama(in his prime), Kane and Son. A solid team there who should have won something but unfortunately for Poch he didn't have that cutting edge or know how of how to win a trophy. He was paid £8m a year. One of the highest in the league. His time at Spurs will be remembered for good football and establishing us as a top 4 team but to many in the football world he was a bottler. Fact.
Teams will suss it out to some extent soon.

Spurs score a lot of goals because of their style, but their style is still boring as fack. Parking the bus and counterattacking is a bit borinh tbh and has caught teams off guard. Teams will suss it out to some extent soon.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Thanks for reading my comment
Liverpool sat deep in the CL final and conceded possession, which Spurs enjoyed having large amount of. Do you remember that? No! Why? It doesn't matter. Results matter!
Winning games matter.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's justified if you have a one goal lead in a Champions League final.
Having it as your general game plan is not the same thing.

As the article shows, 49 goals in 20 games is hardly sitting on a 1-0 lead. Simple maths shows we’d have 20 goals, not 49, if that was the case

If we are boring, how come we are 3rd in the scoring charts, after playing the likes of United, Chelsea, and City - 3 of the top 4 top 4 sides from last season?

Like Liverpool have never played teams from Eastern Europe. Never noticed you moaning about the opposition then.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm not moaning about your opposition, I'm simply pointing out you've taken out the context to help improve your argument.
Hopefully our "boring" football will turn away so called fans like Sizzle, MugOut, BedinSpur and a few others when fans are allowed back in properly. Can't be having their toxic vibes in the stadium.

Of course I do.
And yet have still scored more than spurs. Would be interesting to see where spurs would be if that train wreck against utd didn't happen. But alas it did. We will see who ends up scoring more this season.
Also goals scored don't really paint the whole picture. Spurs are at a very high efficiency level, whereas werner is clearing shots off the line for us
Cant take anything away from spurs, but like the villa liverpool result, the man utd result was a bit of a freak.
Without that game spurs would have only scored 17 goals. Which would put them around 9th/10th for goals scored in the league.

Yeah what is it with Werner Nick?
Great player but he gets ten yards from goal and is determined to pass it
When you're trying to talk to people who make an argument that Spurs are an attacking team because of EL results against a bunch of part-timers and a couple of high scoring games in the PL, you aren't going to get any answers worth any credibility.

Well, what I know is the 2 goals we scored in the NLD will be something to remember. Arteta’s possession football and zero goals wouldn’t be. If you’d rather it be the other way around, then as you say, each to their own.

Agree, 6 goals in 1 match does enhance the goals scored stats quite a bit. But so does scoring 8 against Sheff Utd and Palace. In the big games you havent scored a goal yet, thats more of a concern.
