I think he knew if we landed VvD/Keita, Coutinho/Can would've been sold to balance the books so maybe he stuck with what he had. He's tried a cheapie before with Klaven, though the Ox was a strange purchase... Maybe he thought Phil would be off, no idea I'm amazed some think FSG would sanction a £200m net spend. Never ever.

People talk about wanting more than top 4 but City and Utd will just buy dream teams now so no point wasting energy.

Pochettino's a great but they're doing worse than us. Wonder if spurs fans have started 'Poch Out' threads?


Spuds poor form has a lot to do with them playing at Wembley.


I don't actually understand that.

It's the same venue for both teams

One of the thoughts is that away teams 'raise their game' when at Wembley, a team like Burnley or Brighton are unlikely to play at Wembley in the cups and it could be a one off appearance for allot of their players, so the players get a lift playing their and it gives team/their fans an extra lift.

Also, the grounds have different size pitches, I remember hearing a PL player saying he got used to playing at home and could ping balls around based on seat positions as he saw them, so at home your style of play can be affected by the pitch size, which is different than Tottenham are used to at home.

Both seem weak excuses, but there's abit of logic in there and players are suckers for a psychological excuse to fail and not to blame themselves.

Exactly, this is why Spurs don't feel they have home advantage. In cups finals at Wembley very often the games look well balanced and go to extra time. I however think that the more they play the better they will get.

We have 4 senior players who are capable to play out wide, Coutinho, Mane, Lallana & Salah.

With Lallana got injured, we actually do not have much choices for wingers.

Mane & Salah are very good players, however, they definitely cannot play every game. We can see in these few weeks, once Mane get injured, we do not have much choices for the wide players.

Plus, Ox is actually quite good when playing against small teams. His fast pace and dribbling can help us to create some spaces for breaking the opponent defence.

Great to break opponents' defences especially if we score but what about our defences, is that not important?

We could always give Markovic a go, he's on the bench tonight.

It's squeaky bum time at best. At worst it's shiit all over the carpet! Bet them bloody Rams are rearing to get at us again on Saturday, they're going to rape us from arsehole to breakfast time. But then again, we might just stand our ground and fight...this time, be a brave man that'd put a bet on us though. I thought Klopp'o 's sidekick looked a tad bemused last evening though...wonder if they have the faintest idea of what's hit them in this league?
