Spurs

[billyblue80]

Cos there ain't more than 6 teams who will finish higher.

Who can say after two games? I think plenty will be competitive this year. Spurs will be in the mix again of course with the players you have. But Jose doesn't convince me

And Everton finished in the bottom half of the table but what's that got to do with it?

Well it just seems unusual you would think you couldn't finish lower than 7th, or that thought may not have have entered Levy's head following an opening day defeat where you looked a bit flat.

I see Spurs as one of a group of teams who are probably around 3-4th to about 10th in the league.

Wouldn't know but if it's true I will have Gareth and a love heart on mine and as he is sponsoring Orient's shirts, I will have my over love Kane on that.

Any chance you could do some light translating for me matey?



What does Kane say at the 14 second mark? You've no doubt sat back and dreamed of his frothy lips on your bell so I figure you would be a good source.

You've suddenly became very flush!

I do wonder if the opening day of the season was a bit of a wake up call for Levy etc. To drop out of the top 4 would be one thing, but to fall out of the top 6 I'd imagine would be very damaging.

I saw you were linked with Das Bost. This fella is huge as well. Just my supposition but it looks like Mourinho wants a plan B to Harry Kane which ise sensible.

lol .He's a diver though, that lad

I think it's something like

" we kill that in minute 1, with we press, we pressing, ******* chances, scores."

Where is Everton in your thoughts?

You’re lively tonight aren’t you after your radio silence last week.

"Charge their skulls?"

I would say in a similar grouping, but probably further down than Spurs as they haven't had the same experiences winning as a squad as Spurs have.

I don't think we are miles better than say, Wolves, Leicester, the top 6 etc. Seems quite close to me. Maybe one of Palace/Southampton/Burnley may surprise and join the grou, but I don't see that really.

The top 6, + Everton, Leicester and Wolves to me seem in a bit of a group, with City & Liverpool a bit in front.

What do you think?

There was a funny moment after this, where Mourinho went up to him a couple of games later, and asked Kane who would make the talk out of him and Kane. Mourinho insisted he made it.

Lloris was good at them though.

Keep spreading your rumour cos the flock will happily believe it and then repeat it many times.
I was also very lively this morning as we and I lively when I came straight back on here in the morning after our horrible defeat to a lower team. The plus was that I easily batted back the many insults and digs.. I was also very polite by not making any reply to the all people saying that the Top 4 is on for Everton.

I had already wrote, "4th to 7th."

I think he was talking for some reason about Paul Scholes.

More just about Everton I suppose.

Either way, I think Spurs's range is probably a bit wider, more at the bottom end but also the top and Levy may have got a bit freaked after the opening day defeat. We certainly got kicked into action following our draw with Blackpool.

I should say, which I'd imagine is the real subtext of the question, I think Spurs are a better squad than Evertons. I would be very pleased to finish above Spurs, and said as much before your good win today. It's obviously difficult to predict what is "better" as it incorporates a whole range of factors. But the squad Spurs have, minus Vertonghen and now probably Alli got to a European cup final. Two games of promise for Everton doesn't match that-on paper yet to my mind.

Football moves forward though, and Everton's squad profile is probably a little better in terms of age. I think Son/Kane will be critical for Spurs. You can see how vital Mourinho sees them as by how dejected he was when they were injured. The squad trusted and are clearly lifted when they play. They also deliver in big moments, as you've seen today.
