I have almost given up posting because the forum is littered with shight. i have always respected you as a poster but recently you have become a tad morose. 15 out of 15 !! If that doesn't put a smile on you face `i don't know what will.
Spurs were very lucky to walk away with a 2-1 scoreline. We completely bossed the game. Becker had virtually fk all to do. Our defence was excellent. The midfield did ok. I accept upfront we could have been better but I'm certainly not going to have a go at any of the players. Last year this lot thrashed us at Wembley.
Ffs take a happy pill !!
I've probably seen more false dawns than you have had hot dinners mate, I've seen us top at Christmas and blow it, I've seen us finish fourth in a 'two horse race' and I've even seen us blow it when we were 5 points clear with only 3 games left.
My instincts tell me that our midfield isn't good enough to get the job done over a 9 month (not 5 game) season, particularly when we have CL football to contend with as well. As I have said my one hope is that Fabinho comes into the team and significantly improves us (or maybe we go out and get this Rabiot in January) but even today, great result but our midfield wasn't outstanding or anything, we hit a hell of a lot of long balls and a lot of balls were just helped on. It was scrappy rather than inspired.
That's how I feel mate, do you want me to lie to you and say I think our midfield is great or something?
