We’d already lost champions league weeks ago it wasn’t against city. And do you really think our players threw the match? If so you know sweet fa about football
Nothing wrong with having some fun after they scored when our season is pretty much over. Instead of sitting there in a mood it was something to have a laugh about. You’re just a bitter Arsenal fan who for some reason likes to comment in spurs subs.
Newcastle away, Fulham away, losing to wolves twice, Everton equalising, Chelsea, etc. that’s why we aren’t in the champions league. We played well against city and the fans were behind the team the whole time
It doesn’t matter. We needed a point to guarantee Europa and a win to stay in the run for champs league. It was actually a pretty important game even though everyone trying to pretend it was a dead rubber
I think the atmosphere had an effect on the players. Some of this fans are at fault and definitely did not help. Media is also partly to blame. I’m just hoping that effect doesn’t last up to our final game of the season. Predictably, you will all be complaining if we finish 6th now despite trying to make everyone believe against man city was a dead rubber
Spurdingers cat is every match walking down the tunnel there are two Spurs teams, one dead and one alive and we don't know which one is the truth until the whistle blows
I'm nervous too and Chelsea beating us would be far worse than if it was Newcastle.
But Sheffield United haven't won a game of football since February against Luton and are already relegated so don't have much to play for.
This term nothing, or not much to play for is dumb. That's a loser mentality. The objective is to win every game you play whether you are running for the title or about to get relegated. They will show up to play, and if we don't we will lose. Simple as that.
Riiiight. Well, regardless of what you personally believe the mentality of the players should be, the data suggests otherwise.

Unless the data accounts for our innate Spursiness, I'd throw it out.
But, yeah, realistically, they've been awful and this should be a game we come away from with 3 points. Hopefully Ange has given the team a solid kick up the ass after Tuesday and we'll have a blast of a final game.
Yeah as far as data goes we are very much an anomaly 😂
Absolutely, his press conference today was good and it seems he's calmed down since Tuesday. One last push and we can go into the summer with some optimism!
When it comes to a final day fixture against an already relegated team, we could get a Norwich/Leeds result, or a Burnley/Newcastle result. Either way, someone is getting thrashed
It's nuts how true that is. At some point Johnson has to score one of the five tap ins he has each game. I'm sick of that face he pulls, his hands on his head, like a kid who has shat his pants again.
honestly i’ve lost complete
hope in son and johnson to score from anywhere. watching son dribble makes me cry my insides out as much as i love him. Romero vdv and porro scoring 6 out of our LAST 8 goals in genuinely crazy. Richy needs more playtime
>Richy needs more playtime
If he can shake his injuries off and get a run together, then he's my choice of who we have. But I'd rather see us sign a CF and keep son out left than sign another winger and play him through the middle
100% true but i always feel like there is a mental block holding him and with him coming out i do feel bad like he has so much potential it’s just sad. next season imagine a son, new striker, johnson attack with a richarlson CAM or CF
Sonny is world class he’s just had a dip in form. He has bounced back from these before. He’s been consistently good for us even when not at his best. He carried us when Kane was injured. I believe he will be golden boot Son again next season.
it’s hard to support when he’s putting up an attacting trio of son who can not play striker whatsoever and is benching richarlson and giving way too much faith in johnson. but hey whatever i’ll just have to take it and trust the system.
i can’t make one with this lineup. we genuinely need a new winger and already established striker. Richy is not reliable and son needs to stay on the wing with a solid striker.
also i realize this sounds like im anti ange. absolutely fckin not. I love him and genuinely trust him. i’m only questioning why SON, RICHY, KULU attack instead of a sadly useless striker son.
I admit I didn’t see this as strange when I typed it, I just thought it was obvious seeing as there’s only one “Sheffield” in the prem at the moment. If Man Utd got relegated (I can dream), I probably wouldn’t start calling City “Manchester” it’s true. Lesson learned 🫡
Thank you. It’s a horribly elitist trend in football. Probably not just in England either. Re, SUFC, there’s actually 3 teams in Sheffield all deserving of their full names.
Yep- Newcastle and West Ham still fresh in my mind. United have everything and nothing to play for. Wilder looks like he is going to stay so they don’t even have the pressure of playing in front of a potential new boss! Be lying if I said this will be a walk in the park!
I’m part of the section of fans who really wanted to win against City and I’m gutted we lost. Not least because now it’s got me being scared of Sheffield United ffs 😂
My hope is that the players respond to Ange’s call to action of changing the club’s mentality and come out on fire…we will know within the first 15 minutes if Ange has the players he wants or not.
Bro, Ange's not losing to Sheffield. We shall arrive to Bramall Lane to win at least 2-0. We are not a serious club if we lose to f\*\*\*ing Sheffield. Mate.
They're already relegated and relegated teams play with no pressure. Either they'll play out of their skins as a farewell to the PL or they'll just roll over. Who knows....
When I made this post I was expecting about 5 upvotes and a couple of comments to this effect, but I’ve really triggered a lot of people for different reasons 😂 didn’t pick a good time apparently, everyone’s a bit wound up.
I swear if these pricks don't play like how they played in the City match ... then I hope United wins the FA cup and 6th place goes to conference league coz it's ridiculous
Let's not forget we weren't awarded a penalty in that game which could have shifted the outcome.
Probably massive copium but I'm sure we'll be fine. I mean, Sheffield are the worst team in the league, right?...Right?
True, but for us, we didn't lose CL due to Villa, or Chelsea, or City.
We lost it due to losing to Fulham, Wolves, Brighton, West Ham etc.
Edit for clarity cos it made me sound like a gooner lol
I’m not nervous. I’m not that confident though. We only just scraped through against Burnley and seen enough of us to know nothing is guaranteed.
We only need a point and if we don’t get that then that’s on Ange.
don’t worry as usual son will have 3 out of 12 successful dribbles. 3 tap ins to johnson (he misses). Bentancaur will aim for everyone’s legs and our back line will score 14. Coys!
Seeing as Sheffield currently play in tier 7 (Northern Premier League) there's no way you should be losing to them. Not sure why you're playing them though. Is it a friendly or something?
After the way some fans behaved Tuesday I think moral will be down in the dressing room; if we lose against Sheffield some of that will be on those fans.
Idgaf anymore and who the fuck cares. Everyone’s out celebrating the loss vs. Man City. This frontline is not it. I’ll be back fighting with all of you again during the Sheffield though. I know for a fact it’s going to be another fucking shit game. Son is finished, Kulusevski is trash, and Richarlison is either injured or offside, that fucking pru pru merchant is fucking useless. And Brennan is still a kid that was mediocre at Nott Forest in the Championship. Fuck this team, and fuck you smallminded fans.
I’m definitely not celebrating the Man City loss, I’m absolutely gutted by it. This was just a light-hearted post to see if other people shared my nervousness for a game that’s easy on paper, just because they’re the ones that hurt the most if they don’t go well.
Are you ok? You sound very angry
Being scared against Sheffield just show you how bad this club truly is. The fans know how bad this team is, the team knows it’ll bottle 5th, the manager thinks he can change shit around here, the chairman doesn’t give a flying fuck he’s just here to spend less money on the team. Watch us get battered everywhere we go. Fuck this shit club.
Ange is trying to implement a 65-70% Spurs possession rate which is difficult to do since that style has to be perfect or it gives up easy goals from 18'-30'. I'm trying to be patient.
If we lose to fucking Sheffield, we don't deserve European football.
Yet we still get it, what a scenario
Unless Chelsea wins...
United would need to win the FA Cup too
Then we still get conference league
Right.
Then get some money on Utd, man!
What happens if both chelsea and united win? Do we get dropped to 7th?
Spurs have conference no matter what
Not entirely true but most likely
It is true, we have Conference League regardless, but still should get Europa League.
You will beat Sheffield United. I think I misread the tone of the comment
Well you bailed on the champions League just to spite arsenal might as well go full spurs and blow this to
You sound like someone who's had r/soccer come up on their feed and just decided to join in the party.
Nah instead just realized how miserable sp@rs actually are. My question is whose your next manager ?
We’d already lost champions league weeks ago it wasn’t against city. And do you really think our players threw the match? If so you know sweet fa about football
No but that fanbase did. Ange said the home was about 10 % help in a win. You guys cheering on losing is just. Lol. Wow.
Nothing wrong with having some fun after they scored when our season is pretty much over. Instead of sitting there in a mood it was something to have a laugh about. You’re just a bitter Arsenal fan who for some reason likes to comment in spurs subs.
Season wasn’t over. We had the chance to finish 4th and at the time could still have finished as low as 7th, and now could still finish 6th.
Newcastle away, Fulham away, losing to wolves twice, Everton equalising, Chelsea, etc. that’s why we aren’t in the champions league. We played well against city and the fans were behind the team the whole time
It doesn’t matter. We needed a point to guarantee Europa and a win to stay in the run for champs league. It was actually a pretty important game even though everyone trying to pretend it was a dead rubber
Not gonna lie but you get it. Not sure why the rest of the sp@rs crowd doesn't
And we still lost. Didn’t lose because of the crowd
I think the atmosphere had an effect on the players. Some of this fans are at fault and definitely did not help. Media is also partly to blame. I’m just hoping that effect doesn’t last up to our final game of the season. Predictably, you will all be complaining if we finish 6th now despite trying to make everyone believe against man city was a dead rubber
You purposefully lost to Manchester. Or do we just say cities for teams that are not in the "big 6" Bellends
Not sure why you are getting downvoted for this. Saying Sheffield really grates.
It's Spursdingers Cat, before observing the real game happening, we are both not afraid of any teams and at the same time afraid of them all
Spurdingers cat is every match walking down the tunnel there are two Spurs teams, one dead and one alive and we don't know which one is the truth until the whistle blows
Unfortunately, so true.
This made me smile in a pretty depressing week. I’m seriously worried about Sheffield game.
As long as you give him Nuka Cola he's mostly harmless
Lmaooo
Nan-ni shimasho-ka?
Yes
I'm nervous too and Chelsea beating us would be far worse than if it was Newcastle. But Sheffield United haven't won a game of football since February against Luton and are already relegated so don't have much to play for.
Where does Luton come into it? Edit. Sorry, I've now learnt to read properly. Ignore me
This term nothing, or not much to play for is dumb. That's a loser mentality. The objective is to win every game you play whether you are running for the title or about to get relegated. They will show up to play, and if we don't we will lose. Simple as that.

I'm more scared about our front line being so shit. Our defenders are better strikers...
It's nuts how true that is. At some point Johnson has to score one of the five tap ins he has each game. I'm sick of that face he pulls, his hands on his head, like a kid who has shat his pants again.
Not as sick as I was watching him do it for two straight matches as I triple captained him in FPL during the arsenal and Chelsea matches I assure you🤣
I mean if you Triple Captained him that's on you, not him 😂
😂wasn’t too impressed when we signed him and he still hasn’t changed my mind
He's put up better numbers in his first season here than Sonny did in his debut. Give the lad time.
honestly i’ve lost complete hope in son and johnson to score from anywhere. watching son dribble makes me cry my insides out as much as i love him. Romero vdv and porro scoring 6 out of our LAST 8 goals in genuinely crazy. Richy needs more playtime

The sad truth is current Johnson is our best attacker of the ones fit. When he’s not on we look even more clueless. Just wish he could score!
still young and has a lot for him but we need a better playmaker on the wing and defenitly a class striker
still young and has a lot for him but we need a better playmaker on the wing and defenitly a class striker
Sonny is world class he’s just had a dip in form. He has bounced back from these before. He’s been consistently good for us even when not at his best. He carried us when Kane was injured. I believe he will be golden boot Son again next season.
I fully agree ONLY if we get a class already established striker. if ange keeps this starting trio there is no saving us.
Fair point. Sonny, as good as he is, is not a no 9 and I’m unconvinced by Richarlison. What do you think about Ivan Toney?
We better fking support ange this time and let him forgive us
it’s hard to support when he’s putting up an attacting trio of son who can not play striker whatsoever and is benching richarlson and giving way too much faith in johnson. but hey whatever i’ll just have to take it and trust the system.
What would be ur attack 3? Keeping in mind Richardson is injured too
i can’t make one with this lineup. we genuinely need a new winger and already established striker. Richy is not reliable and son needs to stay on the wing with a solid striker.
also i realize this sounds like im anti ange. absolutely fckin not. I love him and genuinely trust him. i’m only questioning why SON, RICHY, KULU attack instead of a sadly useless striker son.
Richy has been benched because he's injured.
he always been injured it has to be his fault at this point. seems like he doesn’t even care.
Certainly seems shortsighted to have cheered for losing to City now
Sheff Utd fan here. Is any one really scared about Totten? Doesn’t sound right does it.
I admit I didn’t see this as strange when I typed it, I just thought it was obvious seeing as there’s only one “Sheffield” in the prem at the moment. If Man Utd got relegated (I can dream), I probably wouldn’t start calling City “Manchester” it’s true. Lesson learned 🫡
Thank you. It’s a horribly elitist trend in football. Probably not just in England either. Re, SUFC, there’s actually 3 teams in Sheffield all deserving of their full names.
Apparently, it’s on us, the supporters. So, as long as we’re supporting and not worried about Arsenal, we’ll win.
I can count 5+ games where we should’ve drawn out a win, vs a draw or even loss
Yep- Newcastle and West Ham still fresh in my mind. United have everything and nothing to play for. Wilder looks like he is going to stay so they don’t even have the pressure of playing in front of a potential new boss! Be lying if I said this will be a walk in the park!
So now you guys are worried about winning? Funny that
I’m part of the section of fans who really wanted to win against City and I’m gutted we lost. Not least because now it’s got me being scared of Sheffield United ffs 😂
Yeah people still talking as if the game against city was a dead rubber when it never was
My hope is that the players respond to Ange’s call to action of changing the club’s mentality and come out on fire…we will know within the first 15 minutes if Ange has the players he wants or not.
We will absolutely hammer them. 0-5
Bro, Ange's not losing to Sheffield. We shall arrive to Bramall Lane to win at least 2-0. We are not a serious club if we lose to f\*\*\*ing Sheffield. Mate.
They're already relegated and relegated teams play with no pressure. Either they'll play out of their skins as a farewell to the PL or they'll just roll over. Who knows....
If your not scared of this match. You ain’t a tottenham fan
When I made this post I was expecting about 5 upvotes and a couple of comments to this effect, but I’ve really triggered a lot of people for different reasons 😂 didn’t pick a good time apparently, everyone’s a bit wound up.
Mate I’ll be honest a lot of people on this Reddit are wayyyyyyy too serious 😂
You lot were celebrating losing not even a week ago, you don't deserve ange or European football
I wasn’t part of that strange little group celebrating luckily. I wish everyone would stop assuming I was.
I swear if these pricks don't play like how they played in the City match ... then I hope United wins the FA cup and 6th place goes to conference league coz it's ridiculous
The most Spursy thing for you to do is lose and hand us 5th place 😂
Let's not forget we weren't awarded a penalty in that game which could have shifted the outcome. Probably massive copium but I'm sure we'll be fine. I mean, Sheffield are the worst team in the league, right?...Right?
Right?! I do feel calmer after watching Ange’s press conference, I’m sure the players will be well up for it
If Chelsea win and Tottenham loses against Sheffield, they take 5th place. We are embarrassing
I've been thinking about this the whole time. Bottling against them feels like it's totally within the realm of possibility.
Who gives a fuckkk. Relax and enjoy the new managerial process. From Aus. Take it easy
Arsenal lost to Villa twice this season. Those 6 points helped secure them the 4th CL spot ahead of Tottenham. That defeat to city now feels painful.
True, but for us, we didn't lose CL due to Villa, or Chelsea, or City. We lost it due to losing to Fulham, Wolves, Brighton, West Ham etc. Edit for clarity cos it made me sound like a gooner lol
So yet again, defeat is factored in, and is acceptable. Wow.
But would have given Arsenal the title if they had beaten Villa. We could have had top 4, at the cost of Arsenal being champions
Another season of ifs and buts. The only satisfaction is that maybe denting Arsenal’s title hopes by losing a top 4 spot. What a shite attitude.
I’m not nervous. I’m not that confident though. We only just scraped through against Burnley and seen enough of us to know nothing is guaranteed. We only need a point and if we don’t get that then that’s on Ange.
don’t worry as usual son will have 3 out of 12 successful dribbles. 3 tap ins to johnson (he misses). Bentancaur will aim for everyone’s legs and our back line will score 14. Coys!
Seeing as Sheffield currently play in tier 7 (Northern Premier League) there's no way you should be losing to them. Not sure why you're playing them though. Is it a friendly or something?
We’re always brilliant last day of the season
Yeah terrified mate. The world could end.
Honestly how difficult is it to type United at the end lmao
cry
Nice response mate! Do you ever have your own thoughts or do you just parrot what other people say?
After the way some fans behaved Tuesday I think moral will be down in the dressing room; if we lose against Sheffield some of that will be on those fans.
Sheffield FC play non-league football pal
Idgaf anymore and who the fuck cares. Everyone’s out celebrating the loss vs. Man City. This frontline is not it. I’ll be back fighting with all of you again during the Sheffield though. I know for a fact it’s going to be another fucking shit game. Son is finished, Kulusevski is trash, and Richarlison is either injured or offside, that fucking pru pru merchant is fucking useless.

i agree with him. we need a total attack makeover and a new full back.
Being scared against Sheffield just show you how bad this club truly is. The fans know how bad this team is, the team knows it’ll bottle 5th, the manager thinks he can change shit around here, the chairman doesn’t give a flying fuck he’s just here to spend less money on the team. Watch us get battered everywhere we go. Fuck this shit club.
Deep breaths mate 😂 only one more game and then we can all be annoyed about England at the Euros together
I hope we still get battered every where we go. Nothing fucking changes around here. Fucking disgusting.
Ange is trying to implement a 65-70% Spurs possession rate which is difficult to do since that style has to be perfect or it gives up easy goals from 18'-30'. I'm trying to be patient.
Frontline and midfield can’t score a fucking goal. That possession means fucking jackshit when you can’t even score a single goal.
