Now i know we are all a bit downbeat at the moment with no sign of the strikers we desperately need and going into the 1st game of the season with Defoe as our only recognised 1st team striker BUT let's get things into perspective here. We still have an excellent side that is better than most and we will definetly be atleast challenging the top 4 this season even with our current team.
Think of the poor spammers across the road who have to put up with another season battling relegation Think of them having to watch Sam Alladyces hoof ball tactics game after game. Think of having to watch you're side play with that Donkey Carlton Cole upfront. I would still rather have Harry Kane than Carlton Cole so that should tell you something about Westhams forward line.
My point being that things are a lot worse at certain clubs than they are at spurs. We have a young talented manager with an equally young and talented squad. Westham have Vaz te, Carlton Cole and MCcartney .......sends a shiver down my spine at the thought of coming up against class like that
Don't worry boys, we will be alright and hopefully Levy will sort out a few decent signings for us before the window ends. Atleast we don't have Laurel and Hardy with their sidekick the honey monster Brady as our owners. Just take a step back and think we could be Westham fans and could be in much more of a worse position
( Westham fans will be deleted off this thread so don't even bother commenting.......... not that theres many of them on here anyway
Don't despair....we could be westham fans!!

So you freely admit Spurs are a bigger club than Arsenal in terms of European record?

Isn't it more a case of the Europa League not being respected so much in this country rather than in Europe generally. The Spanish sides seem happy enough to give it their all and rightly so IMO.
Any European silverware should be appreciated. In fact going back a bit to the Uefa Cup, it was a very prestigious trophy to win and was extremely competitive. Some of Liverpool's best nights were in that cup going back to the Shankly days.

TGMoL..........................................Spot on, I go back to the days of the old European Cup, Cup Winners Cup & The Fairs Cup which then became the Uefa Cup & Spurs had a very good tradition in it. In those days it was an honour if your team was in Europe irrespective of the competition.
The CL seems to be the Holy Grail & anything else unworthy. The Spanish clubs have rightly identified that is a good competition to win & go all out to do so, whereas as we piddle around with reserves & youth players....................................
I think if they allowed the winners to take a CL spot it might enhance the image of the competition.
As you rightly said, any European silverware should be welcomed and appreciated.

Hornchurch Hammer.............................As it seems to be lifes obsession with certain WHU fans to write rubbish about Spurs, do not be surprised when you get flak from us.
And you can't use the newly promoted card, as you are up & down like yo yo's it has been used too mant times before!

We may have been up and down like "yo yo's" the fact still remains that we have just been promoted. I think you should set your sights a little higher than having a pop at West Ham.
