A Liverpool fan... Models his game on Steven Gerrard. Almost too obvious.

[aRdja]

Markovic had been offered to Chelsea for half what we paid and they fucked him off cos he was shite. Then we went in and threw £20m at them. It beggars belief.

 

Fair enough he had champions league experience, but it means fuck all if he's shite.

That's right, they had a first refusal didn't they...

[Ted]

I hate our transfer committee for not having the capability of building a time machine and going back for Diego Maradona and Franz Beckanbauer.

I just hate them for using their extensive scouting network to come up with a 74 year old Samuel Eto'o and Mario Balotelli as replacements for the best striker in the world.

Yay this entertaining debate again. Love it when people bitch about the transfer committee.

[jimmycase]

I'm not sure if that's much better. Almost identical output, Firmino cost us what, almost three times as much?

 

Everyone including me was banging on about buying established players rather than more potential at the time.

 

Alii has certainly kicked on since he joined spurs. You like to think he'd have done the same if he'd come here but you never know.

[Ted]

I'm sure they had a stake in him when we bought him. They're into all sorts of third party ownership across Europe.

 

Allegedly.

They could've done them simultaneously, we had £100m plus from the sale of Suarez and Sterling FFS!

 

If Spurs offered a straight swap; Firmino and Alli, would you take it now?

He was in the Europa League team of the tournament at the age of 20. Maybe he was overpriced but you cannot legislate for the manager of the club to sabotage the guy by playing him at wingback and constantly subbing him off at half-time. If he comes back next year and doesn't kick on under Klopp, then he'll be a flop, but till then the jury is still out.

 

Also, I don't care what Chelsea do or don't do as far as their transfer activities are concerned because it's even worse than ours.

To be fair when the player we missed out on is this fucking good, it's heart breaking... Considering the amount we spent on dross like Markovic, Aspas, Alberto, etc.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Good result for us.

[aRdja]

Good result for us.

I always knew you were a Spurs fan.

[Tony Moanero]

Was Shearer ever world class though? I think Kane will be better, the rate he's going..

Shearer was brilliant.

[Russ Atmosphere]

I always knew you were a Spurs fan.

They're a very good team. I'm envious of how much value they get from their transfer deals and the young players they've brought through.

[Hades]

Where would we have finished if Kloppo had last summer's budget and a preseason?

[Mathewbet1]

deli ali is the new steven gerrard, except he plays for spurs, blame the brodge

[Section_31]

Kane is just a boss out and out striker, doesn't dribble, isn't a (puts on girly Rick Mayall voice) 'false nine', he just knows where the net is and would do blindfolded. Very rare these days, would rather have one of them any day of the week than some dribbling trickster. That's why I loved Torres. Goalscorers with power who put them away, beautiful.

I think Alli is brilliant myself.

[Mathewbet1]

harry kane is bruce forsyth's son, not a lot of people know that. good game good game. 

[Boss]

You can just tell Kane will go down as one of the great strikers of the English game. He's got that Shearer / Fowler-esque quality about him were he just makes it all look so easy.

[CWD82]

Spurs are going to win this league and it's hard to say they don't deserve it

[eeyore]

Still fucking sickens me

[Baltar]

Yeah, hard to see Spurs not winning it. Leicester have been excellent but Spurs' have greater quality and they'll beat Leicester to the finishing line. 

[Nelly-Szoboszlai]

I think Spurs might do it now.

 

Okazaki and Ulloa are decent. However, Leicester's game relies on defending deep and hitting Vardy early in the channels, using his pace.

 

I think he'll be a big miss for them. They'll still do okay, but can see them drawing a few now.

 

I think Spurs would deserve it.

[Bernard Diomede]

A 5 point gap with 4 games to play is still a hugely significant gap. I think the last minute draw is also a big factor from yesterday, it showed a resilience you need in title races. I highly doubt Spurs will win all 4 either. Plus the so called harder games for Leicester are the mancs, Chelsea and Everton all of whom are absolutely shite.
