Great night for Spurs against

Pep`s Academy boys. To be fair the Academy boys did put up a real fight, and I can see why Pep would drool over these young players, Stones, Dias, Gundogan, Savinho, Nunes, Foden, Ake, Gvardiol, Kovacic, Bernardo Silva, all of who played a part last night. When they get a few more games under their belts they are going to be a serious force to be reckoned with. Average age 26, average age of Spurs starting XI 23.

Still going to be tough to win the Carabou, will have to beat Man City, Man United, and two of Liverpool, Arsenal or Newcastle. Although Spurs usually have had to play all the big boys in finals. Last four League Spurs League Cup Finals, Chelsea (twice), Man City, Man United. So nothing out of the ordinary.

On to the weekend, where I expect Spurs to follow up with another win, this time over Villa. But not overly bothered about the Prem now, away form to patchy to get to excited. Just tick along nicely in the cups, that`s five out of five wins in cups this season thus far.

Football has a habit of changing very quickly over a few days. So the weekend sorrow has quickly been replaced with a more upbeat fanbase I suspect. It`s a funny old game as they say.

Let’s be honest… City were not that bothered about winning this match…if they were… they would have brought on Haaland

But… a win is a win

I would never have play VDV in this match… he’s always a risk… if he plays 2 matches in a week




----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh Sandy thinks 2 matches a week is normal!
Now we're without our fastest defender
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Ted still living in the 1950s.

Can someone let him know clubs have been playing two games a week since the 1960s.

He really has lost the plot.

Oh and wot you got to say about Spurs beating City, after you said Cities B team could beat Spurs? Wrong again Teddie boy.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Never said anything about who would win that match.
And we've lost Micky VDV... hope you're happy about that!
Sandy Old boyho, time for you to hang up your spectacles!
You know nothing about football, and see even less!

Ted rattled. Now posting gibberish.

But we are through to the next round of the cup, we can still win it.

I want to win trophies, I could no longer give a sugary schitt about finishing in a CL position - it’s happened loads and doesn’t lead to anything. Let’s win a trophy, that’s what it’s about at the end of the day.

Would much rather lose Micky in a cup game where we go through than in a league game where all is at stake is whether we finish 6/7/8th this season

Agree. Top four is OK for the moneymen. The supporters are fed up with constant ridicule about dusty trophy cabinets. All cup competitions should absolutely be prioritized over the Prem.

I think there is a balance to be had, for instance, take a youth team to Istanbul next week - we’re as good as through in that competition anyway and could do without the hassle.

But no more rotating out of cups. Ange fair play to him seems to have got the message this season - I’m totally fine with Ange, if he keeps going strong in the cups then keep him until the end of the season and then review. We will have away days like the Palace game, we just will. But if he can get a tune out of players in the cup games and play the strongest team - that’s all I wanted at the start of the season.

Wouldn’t give a a schitt if we finished 13th and won the League cup - I would be saying Ange in

We are not as good as through. If and When Spurs do get through, then that is the time to play the boys, until then full strength as near as damn it. No point in being arrogant after three games, in an eight game group.

Usually we lose VDV for more than one game.
Do you know how bad his hamstring injury is this time?

It's an injury Ted. All clubs get them. Draguson will come in for a couple of games. He played well against Man City if you actually watched the match.

Why do you make such a drama about one player missing a couple of games? I like Micky, but he was also part of a defence that collapsed against both Brighton and Palace, so hardly going to be unmissable for a couple of weeks.

Get a grip Ted, you are seriously losing it

So you're happy to lose VDV?
And you don't like Romero.
So whose your defense?
Davies? Gray? Drag?
Lets see hoe your favourite manager does against Aston Villa, shall we?
