How about taking your win with some dignity instead of coming on boasting.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
you don't get football do you, it is tribal, it is all about boasting ffs
----------------------------------------------------------------------



Yep, I get football but the OP making something out of nothing. Us Spurs fans have been pi** off with our club all season. It’s nothing to do with losing to Leeds, so you lot need to get over yourself. But coming on giving it the big we are and how great you are, when let’s be honest, you are still below us in the league table is just laughable.

not bitter aye?

Wow I think Leeds fans are over taking Liverpool fans for me as being the most annoying on here (Liverpool fans have actually been a good bunch the last few months)

1st season back in the premier league and listen to it

You would think they are on for a champs league place

For the record thought Leeds played well yesterday and thoroughly deserved the win

But put your manager in charge of tottenham and you would be destroyed

Man for man we are much better

Difference was Leeds have a system and play it very well and work hard

Tottenham do not

Have some humility in your victory .....all I’ve seen is nose rubbing of the highest order

Let’s see if you can stay in the league for a few more seasons before touching yourselves
----------------------------------------------------------------------
no body else gets it you are not the only 1 lad, we have been out of top flight football for 16 years, think a bit of tounge and cheek, which you lot have gone over the top

Yep I agree which is why I said what I said

I’d worry if I was a Leeds fan and you lost your manager

He has you playing well above your players ability

I haven’t even heard of half your team yesterday

But fairplay he has you playing really well

I genuinely think if offered the chance he would manage tottenham

But I’m sure you won’t agree with that and that’s okay!

We have bigger potential than Leeds but are in a very bad place

Bielsa wouldn't leave to manage Tottenham. You yourself have admitted a lack of knowledge about us as a club, and that clearly relates back to Bielsa. He didn't have to take us over in the championship. It was a massive coup. He did because he liked the project, because as far as clubs go Leeds are, and I hope this doesn't sound egotistical, as I am more than aware of our limitations, as good a match for Bielsa as I think you will find.

He's turned down the chance to manage better placed clubs than us before because he didn't like the project, or he didn't trust the owners to fulfill their promises. Multiple reasons therefore why I don't think he'd leave us for Spurs.

Didn’t expect a Leeds fan to agree with me

Just my opinion

Definitely agree that your board is better than ours !

I've always found Spurs fans on the whole to be quite realistic with a gallows humour like ourselves but having never experienced the pain of relegation since the 70s or administration, points deduction and near liquidation of their club it is quite amusing to see them depressed and feeling their club is a disgrace and the players are not fit to wear the shirt because they haven't qualified for the Champions league or won the league since 1961.

I think Spurs with Harry Kane always have a chance of champions league football and winning a domestic cup. Without him Spurs will struggle and I don't think they can afford to sell him if they want to be top 6.

If I was Levy I would offer Kane the same wage as Messi as he is that important to the success of the club.

He is pure class and yesterday could easily have had a couple of goals but we should have scored a couple more too so I think the scoreline was fare and Leeds were worthy victors. VAR or no VAR.

this is what you don't get, he definitely would not, you have no idea about the man, it is not about disagreeing at all it is a fact, he is a great man of pride integrity & can honestly say when he leaves leeds he will not manage another club in the pl.

how can you have a bigger potential than us? that's just daft.

To be fair, on the Spurs vlogs I've been on, the Spurs fans have admitted we were easily the better side and I haven't witnessed much bitterness about the defeat. I do think Blackpolespur is a bit deluded about Spurs having more potential than Leeds but we all see our clubs with rose-tinted glasses. My personal verdict is we played well and the 3-1 was just about right - no more, no less. Quite rightly Spurs fans, to a man, are pretty incredulous that their team, with a European place to play for, were lacking both energy and ideas. On on my part, I don't see a reason to gloat.

I don't get the point of this article. I think most Spurs fans would acknowledge that Leeds were the far better team. Just because we are very down on our own performance and team and where we went wrong, isn't some sort of belittling of Leeds. All teams' fans will look at what their own team did.

It's like a few Leeds fans are crying because we didn't praise them to the hilt.

Tbh I agree with you Spurtle. Most Spurs fans have been pretty magnanimous in defeat so don't see a problem. Just move on.

Another thing that really peed me off was the arrogance of the Spurs coach, Neil Harris wannabe, basically comes out and says without the VAR ruling we would have won this game. Twat.
Show a bit of humility man.
We have had our fair share of VAR decisions that didn't go the way we wanted. From day one.
Bielsa has never once blamed the result on the officials. Spurs' manager needs to grow up a bit and admit, on the day, you were beaten by the better side.

Can Bielsa speak English?

Would be nice to hear an interview in English

Yeah, the OP couldn't wait to sprinkle some extra salt on that massive chip on his shoulder.

I thought they preferred gravy on chips oop north but this guy is particularly salty.

Leeds have done well and Bielsa is very well matched to them. I don't think he'd take the Spurs job because he seems to crave a different experience over and above pure ambition to win trophies/top 4/join the elite.

What will be interesting to see, and its happened a lot with mid table teams in the league over the years, is that in order to progress up the table you need the bigger better players, the ones who come with bigger egos, bigger expectations and are different to the more impressionable younger, less experienced player that got you where you are now. It then becomes a different experience for the manager, different expectations, a different challenge in managing egos & very highly paid stars.

Its a transition lots of teams fail to achieve and after a good couple seasons, they spend a lot of money but kinda rip the heart out.

Will be interesting to see how Leeds develop and if the manager maintains the carte blanche he seems to have when the owners and may be the fans may start to develop bigger expectations.

Lorra, I did say I don't agree with this artical but I put simple thoughts out there against things that I find a bit strange, not meaning to bring anyone down like it seems all sides like to try all the time!..

Devonshire, Bielsa has managed big players before, he's one of those that says my way, or sit it out, I don't think big player has any place in his world!..

The Spurs job, I think its more the owners than the club, Leeds have a board that work with him not against, there are others out there that if treated correctly could do a better job but dimwits that want the say don't give them the chance to prove themselves!..

On that basis, Spurs and Bielsa are a match made in heaven.

He speaks English but it is a work in progress. I am struggling to learn a language and whilst I am a few years younger than Bielsa, struggling sums it up. If you really want to listen to what he has to say, it might be quicker for you to learn Portuguese Palmers.

‘have’ to

Maybe try that again, Maf.

Sounds like you’re struggling with English yourself.
