"Why the slow starts every game though,I just don't get it?"

Very good question!
The Brentford game was a game of two halves.
But, having just watched the World Cup, I found this game slow, painfully unimaginative at times, boring, and downright defensively incompetent on the Spurs side.
Son tried his best in that face mask. I think he should be rested untill the mask comes off.
Kulushevski had a good game, as did Kane and Perisic (straight back for #3 spot in WC)

"The 33-year-old played every game for Croatia in Qatar, including their third-place play-off win over Morocco that took place less than two weeks ago."

Hojbjerg was a warrior all game.
Lenglet was decent.
And I would even give Doherty a mention.

Otherwise Dier had a nightmare, Tanganga does not belong on a first team pitch, The goal keeper (what's his name?) was junk, and I cannot remember our other players.
This was a match Spurs should have won comfortably by 0-3.
And it will come back to haunt us later in the season when Manu climb above us, and probably others as well.
Kane will rue the day he didn't kick Levy's ass and go to City.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes Ted, were not United going to climb above Spurs last season?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think you have said in the past you don’t watch anyone but Tottenham?

Well united under ETH look a different beast altogether so you can’t compare last season to this

They look a much better unit than we do and their defence is miles better ….we have Kane , that’s it

United will be above us soon
----------------------------------------------------------------------


Totally agree. United look a lot better this season it’s worrying. Liverpool are clearly still a better side than Spurs that’s just a fact. They have had a poor start, but they are starting to rise. Chelsea are always sniffing around like a bad smell. All those will be above Spurs soon if we don’t make changes to that defence.
----------------------------------------------------------------------


Don, Liverpool are not a great side now. I said at the back end of last season they had peaked. Expect Spurs to finish above both United and Liverpool.

They are about where I expect them to finish 6th. Said Liverpool would finish outside the top four before a ball was kicked.

Chelsea are finished now the Russian has gone. They aint getting anywhere near the top four.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Liverpool have just bought a top player without spending a month quibbling over the price, payment structure, etc.

They are operating like a big club. Mean while we’re struggling to convince our manager and star player to stay.

Levy and Enic are starting to kill this club
----------------------------------------------------------------------

They haven`t brought any player yet. The transfer window doesn`t open until January. So it would be illegal if they purchased a player in December.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes very good Sandy, they have the deal lined up to go through on Jan 1st - meanwhile our manager has already said we will only be making club signings - I.e. not who the manager wants
----------------------------------------------------------------------


The usual younger cheap players so Levy can sell at a profit if need be. Can’t believe people are still blinded by it.

Liverpool are an ambitious football club mate that are on the verge of signing one of the best players at the WC. They don’t mess around. They realise they have injuries and have players coming to the later stages of their career, so they are doing something about it. Spurs have zero plan for Kane or Son. Zero ambition at improving a terrible defence. Zero ambition to win trophies. Liverpool are on a different planet compared to Spurs and I couldn’t careless about the current table. Liverpool will be above us in no time

It infuriates me Don, you watch our fans will moan about Conte rather than ask how it is he succeeded everywhere else he has been but can’t at Spurs - same as Jose.

It’s extremely worrying the comment Conte has made about “club signings” - it’s gonna be another Sarr, Gil, N’jie, N’koudou, Spence, etc a player the manager doesn’t actually want and won’t play

Please remember this is purely Sandys view - about as one eyed as it gets. Sandy only watches Spurs, so at most has seen Liverpool twice in the last 12 months, he has zero idea about how good you may or may not be.

The worst thing is that the Liverpool owners are openly looking to sell up but are still happy to keep spending to improve the team - our owners won’t even spend when it’s in their interest.

Only our owners would hire a serial winner like Conte then not back him in the market - faaaacking morons

I have seen Liverpool quite a bit last 12 months, they look very average in lots of games. They have a striker who could not hit a barn door. Take Salah out of the team, and they will be lucky to finish top six.

Can't hit a barn door yet has scored only five goals less than Kane this season, in less appearances.

----------------------------------------------------------------------


Totally agree. United look a lot better this season it’s worrying. Liverpool are clearly still a better side than Spurs that’s just a fact. They have had a poor start, but they are starting to rise. Chelsea are always sniffing around like a bad smell. All those will be above Spurs soon if we don’t make changes to that defence.
----------------------------------------------------------------------


Don, Liverpool are not a great side now. I said at the back end of last season they had peaked. Expect Spurs to finish above both United and Liverpool.

They are about where I expect them to finish 6th. Said Liverpool would finish outside the top four before a ball was kicked.

Chelsea are finished now the Russian has gone. They aint getting anywhere near the top four.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Well we're closing the gap and are already making further improvements to our squad
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Please remember this is purely Sandys view - about as one eyed as it gets. Sandy only watches Spurs, so at most has seen Liverpool twice in the last 12 months, he has zero idea about how good you may or may not be.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I have seen Liverpool quite a bit last 12 months, they look very average in lots of games. They have a striker who could not hit a barn door. Take Salah out of the team, and they will be lucky to finish top six.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Well stop telling people you only watch Spurs

You definitely haven’t watched Stoke if you want us to sign Harry Souttar

"Why the slow starts every game though,I just don't get it?"

Very good question!
The Brentford game was a game of two halves.
But, having just watched the World Cup, I found this game slow, painfully unimaginative at times, boring, and downright defensively incompetent on the Spurs side.
Son tried his best in that face mask. I think he should be rested untill the mask comes off.
Kulushevski had a good game, as did Kane and Perisic (straight back for #3 spot in WC)

"The 33-year-old played every game for Croatia in Qatar, including their third-place play-off win over Morocco that took place less than two weeks ago."

Hojbjerg was a warrior all game.
Lenglet was decent.
And I would even give Doherty a mention.

Otherwise Dier had a nightmare, Tanganga does not belong on a first team pitch, The goal keeper (what's his name?) was junk, and I cannot remember our other players.
This was a match Spurs should have won comfortably by 0-3.
And it will come back to haunt us later in the season when Manu climb above us, and probably others as well.
Kane will rue the day he didn't kick Levy's ass and go to City.

----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes Ted, were not United going to climb above Spurs last season?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think you have said in the past you don’t watch anyone but Tottenham?

Well united under ETH look a different beast altogether so you can’t compare last season to this

They look a much better unit than we do and their defence is miles better ….we have Kane , that’s it

United will be above us soon

Strike, any fan that watches football knows Liverpool are still an excellent side. Yes, they are weaker without Mane, but look to be doing something about it unlike our clowns in charge. Klopp wants, he gets backed fully. Comte wants a RWB, he gets Djed Spence who is looking likely to be loaned out. An absolute joke.

Top 4 is going to be tough now. We've let too many points go and are now in the thick of it with United, Liverpool, Newcastle, and possibly Chelsea.

The season has not been great. The way we ended last season and the new signings should have given us cause to believe we were going to progress further but this hasn't happened and our performances have inexplicably gone backwards. Out of the League Cup too.

Need to somehow rescue the season.

Only way to rescue the season mate is to purchase a couple of top defenders in Jan. We all know our bald friend won’t do this. Our defence currently isn’t good enough even with Romero, so we are going nowhere unfortunately

I still think Conte will drag us kicking and screaming into 4th at the end of the season, my prediction is:

City
Arsenal
Liverpool
Spurs
United
Newcastle
Chelsea

I think Potter will be sacked before the season is done. Newcastle won’t be able to break teams down when they start turning up and playing for a draw and United will co tongue through boom and bust cycles.

Liverpool to finish a fair few points above us but City and Arsenal to fight for the title with Liverpool not really in it.

I then reckon Levy will not give Conte the guarantees he wants at the end of the season and Conte will walk and Kane won’t sign a new contract and we will have to sell him.

You're right Don, we need to sign another CB or 2 but there'd still be other issues. Doesn't change the fact we keep having these sluggish starts and need wake up calls all the time to get going. Son clearly off form compared to last season (but might get it back). Conte not always helping himself either with some of his decisions.

Even if we scraped into top 4 with some new defenders I don't think their addition is enough to get us to win something. This would therefore not be much progress on how last season went. The worst thing would be if Arsenal actually won the league while we do nothing again. How another rival has suddenly leapfrogged us to get where we want to get would sum it up.

I hope so mate but for how great Conte can be, he doesn't guarantee top 4. He didn't with Chelsea in their second season and that's why they got rid, even when he won the FA Cup that year.

Getting top 4 again would be fine but if we don't win anything with it, is it progression?

It definitely won’t be progression which is why I think Conte will then leave - he will realise that all Levy is interested in is finishing top 4 for as little spend as possible.

There is a mixture of blame to pass around for why we are not lifting up trees at the moment. Conte not totally blameless. Some of it is down to Levy, some of it Conte, some of it the players.

Mate it’s criminal. Defence was badly needing reinforcements and Levy goes and gets Lenglet on loan and some unproven youngster for 25 mil. Another waste of money that probably be loaned out. The club’s policy is an absolute joke and even the clubs mouthpiece Ally Gold is starting to question it on his videos

posted on 28/12/22

As good as the summer was in terms of getting more numbers in, not reinforcing the defence was a major red flag.

It's criminal Dier and Sanchez are still on the payroll.

Said it before but if Dier was black he would be gettin lg gods more abuse. Being white helps!

In the bigger picture they are obviously more to blame but in the smaller picture, as in during Conte's management, not as much.

They could have done better in bringing in another CB, but we are now looking in hindsight about how problematic the defence is when going into this season did most of us think it would be so bad? Romero added last summer, Lenglet added, and another LB to go with the other new additions. It was a decent transfer window, and Dier, even Sanchez were looking solid towards the end of last season. I never felt we were going to get everything done anyway. At least on paper, another quality CB would have made it a 10/10 window for me as opposed to an 8/10 one.

Regardless of Levy, nobody can argue that Conte shouldn't be playing Spence more even if he didn't want him. Some of his selections/subs have also been suspect. There is blame all over.
