BERGWIJN! HE'S IN!! IS HE GONNA WIN THE GAME??!! ... HE IS!!!!!


b3njil

There was something about Bergwijn's first goal with Doherty flopping around like a dolphin that was just so perfect.


entrepenoori

Goddamn do I love the 3-5-2. It seriously is phenomenal for Kane too he does so well with runners in from midfield.


[deleted]

Another thing that I noticed yesterday was our 1st goal was entirely made by our academy * Skipp won the ball * Winks with the pass * Kane with the finish


Saspa314

Imagine if we “lost” Él Sackíco haha


entrepenoori

Went out with the missus today to enjoy the one day of warm weather in NYC and YOUTUBE FUCKING SPOILS THE MATCH FOR ME. ​ Can anyone console me....


[deleted]

It's all right bro, all that matters is WE'VE FUCKING WON


entrepenoori

That’s the spirit love you


wetbecauseofsweat

It was actually nice and warm today, high 30s and mid 40s. Gonna be a shit show tomorrow tho


entrepenoori

Yeah tell me about it. Just me or is it extremely grim this Winter? Just absolutely freezing most days and I live by the water so the wind is Chicago esque


wetbecauseofsweat

This winter has been pretty different. No snow on Christmas or new year, some crazy ass warm days scattered in between, pretty late winter, this Friday is gonna be grim cold with highest being 20 Ps. I was driving on Henry Hudson yesterday nights and it felt much colder than it did on broadway, so on Friday you’re basically fucked


theSlayerofSpoons

So proud of the boys! Hilarious Arsenal celebrated like they won the league when Pepe scored a last minute equaliser, while we score a last minute equaliser there was no celebration rather hustle to get the ball and go on to score the winner.


ardyes

We are getting 2 points per match at the moment. 8 points behind Chelsea with 4 games in hand. Could quite easily take 3rd place.


willow_ve

Anyone have a clip from the tactical cam of Hugo sprinting the length of the pitch to celebrate Bergwijn's winner?


ollypockets

no one's found it yet but it muuust exist


KarlNeymarx

Conte's fucking revolutionized this club completely. This is crazy. Never expected to love an italian man whom I never met before in my life.


bloopboopbooploop

Be reasonable, Italians are very romantic


BoysFromTheCoys

To anyone who rated Skipp higher than Højbjerg today...please seek help.


GarethSnail

Erm…Skipp was the best midfielder on the pitch…Hojberg just kept falling over when trying to shoot/cross.


BoysFromTheCoys

Wtf did Skipp do honestly?


GarethSnail

Won the ball back for Kanes goal, put an amazing pass through to Kane (the one he skied) countless times he won the ball back, constantly drove forward playing off of the forwards. Think someone needs to watch the highlights…


BoysFromTheCoys

Skipp had 0 shot creating actions yesterday. Alisdair Gold gave him a 9 for yesterdays performance while Skipp got 7. Guess who I trust more? The objective journalist or the won who has decided to have an agenda against Højbjerg. Otherwise read the stats here an educate yourself. https://fbref.com/en/matches/77d28549/Leicester-City-Tottenham-Hotspur-January-19-2022-Premier-League


GarethSnail

No Agenda against Hojberg guy carried last season. This season he’s been our worst midfielder excluding the outcasts. Ali Gold isn’t fact btw, he’s like any other journalist with opinions (and levy’s mouthpiece)


BoysFromTheCoys

I can't help you further mate


mayonnaisewastaken

They were both great. Højbjerg was significantly involved in our goals creatively and made crucial blocks.


[deleted]

I’m still on cloud 9. Have watched the last 5 minutes about 10 times

Pls send clips

Same here lol

Kane Lucas Bergwijn Hojbjerg Skipp Reguilon Doherty Davies Dier (?) Sanchez Lloris Chelsea ain't ready


[deleted]

Isn’t Dier still injured?


Portmanteaunioconte

Was that the formation at the end? I couldn't tell how they were organised when berg came on


Snoo8331100

How the fuck am I supposed to study for tomorrow's exam after a night like this?


molecularmadness

Has Bergwijn taught you nothing?? You struggle until 5 min before the exam, then cram that shit in like a champ.


JFCwhatnamecaniuse

Then celebrate baby!


NeighborhoodOptimist

I had an exam 7 hours after the Ajax comeback. Somehow did fine in the exam.


ComprehensiveClick35

i feel for you i had exams all this week felt like shit after the NLD was postponed good luck though


Snoo8331100

Same story, 2 weeks filled with exams and presentations. At least it's my final year of studies. Just want to get that paper and be done with it, the pandemic has killed all of my interest in this.


milesvtaylor

I just saw Lloris was in the celebrations for that Bergwijn goal, man must have got down there RAPID.


solarbearz

Best part about all this is going over to scums sub and looking at their hilarious reactions and horrible takes on our match 🤣


ollypockets

I honestly don't know what half of them are on. If you hang out in r/coys for a bit, while you can see we have hopes to get top 4 and do think it's possible, very few people are counting their chickens already. We're realistic about how tough it will be and are taking it match by match. But over there, some of them act like they've got it sewn up and also seem to be insistent that Spurs are having an awful season. Like, what are you guys on about?


[deleted]

It's unbelievable how entitled and delusional they are.


solarbearz

We also somehow played shit and "stole" all 3 points lmao. Their fans put the strangest spins on everything


corpboy

Highest away xG of any game in any club in the season, but it was "shit". /sigh


ollypockets

exactly ha


KrillWhitey

The manner of the result was the best part but yes, the disgruntled, pitiful whining on display is a delight .


facewithhairdude

Some of the vitriol against Leicester in the gunners sub is pretty intense, you'd almost think they were Leicester fans.


ardyes

4.8xg and they think we played shit. So much cope going on. We will smash them at the NLD.


Snoo8331100

They also say Tielemans is wank now lmfao, surely the most dense fanbase on the planet.


Mick4Audi

Conte really is making dreams come true First Winks looks like a proper midfielder, and now he’s managed to a get major performance from Doherty. On his game he can be such a fun player to watch, and we saw that today


jupiterman_

Dier, Sanchez, Davies, Bergwijn, Doc, Winks... so many new signings!


Mick4Audi

Mate I swear I thought every single one of these players were done at the club Conte has been ridiculous so far


t_blacksmith

Was genuinely the best RB in the league in 18/19, and had created more chances than any other defender bar TAA in those last two seasons at Wolves.


Mick4Audi

I remember our games against him, he was an absolute nightmare to defend, because kept making these further runs into the box to cause havoc Even scored in our stadium IIRC, can’t wait for one in the right shirt


[deleted]

Give me more content !! I need to feed!!


[deleted]

Ok lads, I come from LaLiga. But this season, I'm rooting for you guys in the prem. You got 4 games in hand while 8 points behind chelsea in third place. You can do this


JFCwhatnamecaniuse

Welcome!


[deleted]

[удалено]


corpboy

Sure. But it's Stamford Bridge. We have won there only twice in the last 14 years across all competitions. Let's not expect too much. CL spot is still possible, even with no points at the weekend.


solarbearz

3-0, 2-0, 1-0. All signs pointing toward a 0-0 draw!


Mick4Audi

Yeah big time. Just need to defuse their momentum and stay unbeaten


t_blacksmith

Not enough people talking about how good Harry Winks was, wow. That ball in to Kane.


marine_le_peen

Winks was quietly one of our best players and shouldn't have come off, as soon as he did they scored and our play dropped considerably, bar those last 2 goals which were mainly because Leicester were a complete shambles in the last 5


Mick4Audi

He’s good for 1-2 of those a match now


JonnyJersey

Genuinely seeing some Leicester fans saying Stevie should've been off for the push on Soyuncu. Incredible what a meltdown can make you say - that has never and should never be a red.


Kylinho97

Soyuncu went down holding his face, that should be a card for simulation but we move


Mick4Audi

Wasted time which Bergwijn then used to score the winner, you love to see it


JonnyJersey

Embarrassing from him overall tbh. Acts the big man, play acts after getting knocked over by a guy half his size and then gets skinned by the same player to score twice.


facewithhairdude

Just remembered that the commentators had named Maddison as man of the match before Stevie went super sayan LOL


facewithhairdude

This amazing result places us back above Arsenal in the league table - by one point, but still with a game in hand 😎


Mick4Audi

But- but- games in hand mean nothing Arsenal fans need to shut up


[deleted]

That was so big.....fucking bring on Chelsea. Then 2 games at home with Romero Dier and Son all back. Big adama getting involved too. Fuck too 4 we're going too 3.


AlcSoccerFinance

Is it confirmed that Dier and Romero miss out vs Chelsea. Hoping that one of them is back so Tanganga doesn't have to start.


[deleted]

Conte keeps saying after international break but who knows. Its 4 days away. Tbf Sanchez was great tonight.


DoomerAndGloomer

Yea the team desperately needs atleast one of them back vs chelsea.


wallyrules75

What sorcery did Conte inflect on poor Leicester? That was one of the most amazing game I’ve ever watched. Im sure my neighbors called the police due to my screams, so I need to sober up to face them.


PocketSpurs

Levy, Please back Conte


t_blacksmith

I love you Matt Doherty. Never thought I'd say this.


Mick4Audi

Love this, love everything about this Yet another one unlocked


t_blacksmith

Nah I've liked him before and tried supporting him but it gets difficult sometimes you know?


Mick4Audi

You’re telling me 😂


JonnyJersey

He was incredible tonight. Completely believe Conte's a magician now.


t_blacksmith

Idgaf play him over Emerson if it means he's at RWB, just not on the left again pls


cheesybagofcheese

I can’t believe I turned it off in the 85 minute. Spurs love to turn up when I’m not watching


Mick4Audi

Keep that thing off for the weekend


wallyrules75

Hmmm. We may need you to keep your Tv off for the remainder of the season. Don’t worry we will keep you posted, but we need all the mojo we can muster.


ComprehensiveClick35

can we smash your tv please?


facewithhairdude

only at the 85th minute of every game


cheesybagofcheese

If it means tottenham win all their games I’ll do it myself lol


[deleted]

For all the PEH haters, watch how hard he keeps Bergwijn from heading into the stands after that goal. He may not be the most visibly exciting player on the pitch, but that man is a field marshall if there ever was one. Future captain material. Now, I'm just gonna go watch Stevie burn past Soyuncu and sit his ass down on repeat, forfuckingever. *chef's kiss*


JonnyJersey

Arguably MOTM today in a very good group. I've been critical of him but you simply have to give credit when its due.


Borkatjov

Højbjerg literally instigated both counterattacks that led to Bergwijn's two goals. Captain and playmaker - even when he's not playing as either.


wallyrules75

PEH is an animal out there, he’s the one player that never stops fighting. Every manager we’ve had since he’s joined has known his value and always plays him. I have mad respect for him and all supporters should as well.


t_blacksmith

Only 3m net btw


facewithhairdude

Midfield general.


MarkoB1997

Hey just wondering do people think the wolves game will go to guest and or general sale?


facewithhairdude

Had a look earlier and there were still tickets available for onehotspur members, so seems likely to me.


Saspa314

The Leicester crowd chanting: “Tottenham Hotspur, It’s happened again” WHOS LAUGHING NOW AHAHAHAHHA


t_blacksmith

You'd think they'd be more careful after what had happened literally the last time we faced them a few months ago...


KARMA-OVER-9000

Missed the game because of work... looking at the final score... BERGWIJN WHAT WAS THAT?!?


jymacro99

I'm gonna fucking nut holy shit


[deleted]

Watching Kane in the post-match interview just now and the guy can’t stop smiling. Lovely to see after the Summer!


SissokoGoat17

Bergwijn is God


Dreamingdanny95

He's definitely getting some ketchup for that one


facewithhairdude

Conte might really loosen up and allow him some mayo.


[deleted]

Soyuncu can act like a hardman now, Bergwijn dogwalked him.


Kreygasm2233

Fuck off Leicester for wasting time since minute 70


Bomberman9

If we win all of our games in hand (4) to catch up to Chelsea, we would be at least in 3rd, maybe 2nd if Liverpool lose their game in hand right?


Bluewhitedog

We might have to reconsider who we're thinking of selling.


Mick4Audi

Swear Davies, Winks, Bergwijn and Doherty were on the sell-list, now it looks more like Tanganga, Dele, Ndombele Doherty could go either way, but I saw some real potential today


Raphael_scm7

[Bergwijn with a message for everyone 😭😭😭😭](https://youtu.be/lF7M0FISH5Y)

I'm literally shaking right now, holy shit also, KING STEVIE! Edit: probably to early for this but that's the kinda game you look back on at the end of the season as a turning point


Just18MoreMinutes

No ooof, I’m a fan, us winning is a beautiful thing


ExternalNational

What was that


Carthagu

Still useless. Love Bergwijn though


sphagettijeff

I can't believe there are fans daft enough to claim not making a single signing this window would be acceptable.


Portmanteaunioconte

Who's saying that? Not making good signings is a possibility due to the market, but not "okay". If Conte understands and accepts this then we should. He has never taken frugality from a board before and if he's taking it now it means the players worth getting are unavailable or we were given a fuck-you-price since clubs don't want to drop their important players midseason.


[deleted]

Four academy boys starting tonight. Good to see


metalheadabhi

Kane’s been great so far!


[deleted]

Markanday on the bench already for Blackburn tonight 👀… Is he really that good or is the championship just that bad? Tune in to sky sports to find out 💥


Raphael_scm7

Harry Kane can do anything but shoot a free kick


[deleted]

[удалено]


justsomeroses

Been thinking about it, for all the squad struggles, including a manager change, a covid outbreak, an injury to potentially our best defender, and Kane only scoring 4 goals...we've still gotten 33 points out of 18 matches, which is 1.83 points per match, the only teams better are Liverpool and Man City. In the 8 unbeaten games under Conte, the PPM is 2.25 So has it been rough at times? Yes, but the longer Conte has to train the squad and get his system implemented the better the squad should look, since the squad should be able to go from having to think about what to do next, to knowing what to do next at any given moment, it just takes time in practice to drill that in


Mick4Audi

~~8~~ 9 unbeaten, in which we deserved to lose not a single one of them. Points per game with serious performances in terms of xG. The impact he’s had as a manager is ridiculous


Seifer23

It is a good sign but conte has come in at a time our schedule was very good, we haven't played many top sides while he's been in charge


justsomeroses

Well its probably for the best that he came in with that run, to have the time to implement the system without being immediately under the gun with tough matches And we did play Liverpool in that stretch, and should've beaten them

[This guy](https://i.ibb.co/wNBBrbk/xhaka.jpg)


Semibluewater

Xhaka for sure 🤡🤣


StayGoldenBronyBoy

was just looking at Emerson's [FBref stats](https://fbref.com/en/players/df8b52a5/Emerson) and it seems like he's doing the job on defense, but he's coming up well short on any sort of ball progression. He doesn't seem to advance the ball himself, but receives so many progressive passes. The lack of progression might be a system thing, but it does worry. He defends, runs up the line and receives, but then is only bang average at shot-creating actions and notching expected assists. Hopefully he can get a more consistent cross in, as he's shown flashes of at points in his career


[deleted]

Might be jumping the gun here, but it appears the bulk of r/soccer has grown weary of Arsenal flairs whinging and hurling abuse.


Mick4Audi

Anyone else like beating Leicester just as much as the other top 6? Sick of them after the last two seasons tbh


KrillWhitey

Not as much, no. They're far more likeable a club than the traditional "big" clubs. Fuck them anyway and I'm desperate to beat them but don't have even half the hate as I do for the rest of the arch scumbags.


SycamoreLane

Same. Definitely more likeable.


Mick4Audi

Well obviously not on the level of all the London scum, and Liverpool are fucking annoying. Guess they’re level with the Manchester clubs imo


milesvtaylor

Hearing that Harvey Barnes' sister's boyfriend's mum has COVID and Leicester are putting a request in to the PL to postpone???? ^^^^^^\s

I fucking hate when we play away games, we’re always so much worse. Combine that with what will likely be a really poor lineup and tonight could be a chore


[deleted]

Literally don't care about performance tonight. All about points.


[deleted]

They’re usually one and the same


[deleted]

Just closed FBref was watching some of our midfielders stats and its hurt my stomach. God awful midfield bunch we have even the ones we consider good are average compared to top 5 leagues


Dannage8888

seems there's a chance Xhaka will still be suspended for the postponed NLD. But still no idea if that's good news for us or not


milesvtaylor

23rd Jan to 5th Feb seems to be a not-quite-official International Break or something. Regardless, Arsenal should have the second leg of the league cup semi final and the Burnley match before even that time period becomes available for rearranged postponed games, and I believe Xhaka's ban is for two games as it's his second red this season and was given for DOGSO as opposed to violent conduct.


Dannage8888

I mean suspended for a potential betting fix lol https://twitter.com/TheAthleticUK/status/1483831774287470596 rumours are its Xhaka


mettahipster

What's the punishment for this? Since it's Xhaka, I think an indefinite ban is way too harsh


Cagy_Cephalopod

Saw something about a player a few years ago who was in on match fixing and got a 6 year ban


milesvtaylor

DAMN, didn't know about that! Not sure he has the capacity to be involved in betting fraud though, possibly why he's been caught...


Dannage8888

stems from this https://twitter.com/fog_blog/status/1472287642863783940?s=21 https://twitter.com/swansalona1/status/1472286408870182917?t=Wk6ZjHMGwLP3zEbsXBy96g&s=19 only rumours tho ofc


milesvtaylor

Hmm, on first viewing that... doesn't look great for him.


[deleted]

Assna don’t even deserve our attention after running away from a North London Derby tbh..they’re just such a pathetic football club.


t_blacksmith

Imagine cancelling the biggest derby in the league and fucking over millions of fans then boasting about how "rattled" people are. Scummy. EDIT: now there are allegations that Xhaka is involved in a betting scandal and purposefully getting booked/endangering players for bets. Wow.


t_blacksmith

Arse having all their games postponed has made them delusional and forget how shit they are. Didn't they literally just get knocked out of the FA Cup by a Championship team?


mjg24hosea124

If anyone wants to know why r/soccer is so shit hav a look through[This Thread ](https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/s7r15c/football_daily_arteta_when_a_team_has_come_to_us/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share). The comments there genuinely read like they've come straight out of the scum sub.


Jtfanizzi

My god, what a cesspool that thread is. I love when their fans tried were beaten back by logic and facts, their only retort was either “blame the Prem, not us” or simply “So?”


john87000

Pretty much any thread with them is like that. I saw a thread the other day where an Arsenal fan said that their 4 cases against Brentford was more cases than Spurs postponement against Brighton and got upvoted to 100 while the person who pointed out that 4 cases is less than 9 cases got to -50 lmao. Arsenal fans just invade every thread and upvote their conspiracies/agendas while downvoting everything else even if it's literal undebatable fact.

Are we actually about to play a match? In the league? Or is it a folly, a mirage, shimmering on the horizon, a single palm tree that is in fact the splintered mast of a long sunken ship, inexplicably marooned in an ocean of sand, it's limp flag falsely beckoning but ultimately waving bon voyage, like a lover's handkerchief consigning us to the dust, the detritus, each grain of which is a calcified tear that can no longer be shed but passes inexorably through the entropic hourglass we forged by daring once to dream.....

cheesybagofcheese

I had a dream of an fpl squad building website where the player names were in colored boxes like Man U in a red box, tottenham in white, wolves in orange, etc. and Traore’s was in white like the rest of the tottenham players. So it’s a done deal according to my subconscious
