Bottom of the league is ludicrous for this team

Keep your heads up Spurs fans. Good analysis in here. Winning games is the only way our ‘mindset’ improves and I think it will come eventually 👍 youtu.be/nLAf4zImkKU?...

Really respect Gerrard’s analysis of us, it’s often very balanced and he understands the actual issues rather than making random shit up.

I’ve always defended us against the ’Spursy’ tag. But I’ve never seen us more Spursy than right now. A laughing stock. Meek. Chaotic. All bark and no bite. Teams play us and score worldies because they think ‘why not?’ Guts, killer instinct, intelligence - all missing. There are no excuses left.

Christ, Van Hecke is like cargo ship when defending dribblers.

Kudus is not a 10, repeat not a 10. How many times do we need to see it?

Ah ffs, he’s taken Fernandes off…. Why not Solanke off?

The players are trying, really really trying, but you can tell they’re too clenched up and trying too hard. Not relaxed in front of goal, frustration at every ref decision. Reminds me of end of last season when everything felt so desperate. Just need something to fall for us

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 15/09/2026
What’s the point. Team’s regularly score worldy’s against us. Same shit, different day!

Udogie is fantastic (when fit). A duelling monster

Senesi is a gorgeous footballer, so many subtle line breaking passes. And they’re so well waited for the guy receiving them.

Why do we refuse to play through balls?? Marmoush is on his bike and no one is seeing him

Difference between a very good finisher and Bergvall who found a way to miss from 2 yards instead. This team is infuriating!

Kudus ALWAYS over hits his crosses 🤦‍♂️

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
Listening to the game on the radio, can’t really tell who’s playing well or not. But I’d happily take a 0-0 draw at this stage!

Are we lacking…. physicality and athleticism? The thing we all thought we had too much of? 😂

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 19/06/2026
You're telling me they've randomly picked these fixtures out of a hat?

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 19/05/2026
How is that Delap foul not a red btw? Looked at him, then led with an elbow to the head 🤷‍♂️

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 19/05/2026
If we lose to Everton and West Ham beat Leeds then we deserve to go down. It’s as simple as that. But I do think we’ll get at least a point against Everton. It’s incredible that we only look remotely threatening with Madders on the pitch. Genuine (& expensive) quality is what wins you games.

Not sure I’ve watched so many Spurs players in one team incapable of making competent decisions on the ball.

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 19/05/2026
One chance, one goal. And we can end this nightmare 😬

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 19/05/2026
Again, that front 3 is just so lacking

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 16/05/2026
Any Spurs fans a little worried watching this Chelsea team?? Their form may be iffy, but I forgot how absolutely stacked their squad is. In a combined XI, no current fit Tottenham player gets in.

Kinsky that is superhuman, wow

This is utterly unbearable

Our team is unrivalled in making terrible decisions in matches

Wtf is Tel doing there, just utterly clueless

What a save from Raya, wow. What the hell are Arsenal doing?

Sums the whole thing up. People that voted for Brexit did their best to screw things up for the country, trying again by voting for Reform.

A sign of more incompetence by our football operations team: We are massively underperforming in the metric that most accurately predicts success in the PL - wages. 7th highest wages, and we were 17th last season, 18th this season.

Another week, another injury crisis. And I know it’s boring to talk about. Ultimately, whether we had Frank, Tudor or de Zerbi in charge, these injuries will be the main cause of relegation (if we are).

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 18/04/2026
What an insane gut punch. That’s our best performance playing actual football as we know it, for 7 months. I have faith we can win games now, but we may not have enough games left.

Great video from Adam Cleary. If you want a slice of positivity, watch from 10:39 onwards. There are some attempts to change shape and find solutions, but the confidence levels just let us down. I’m certain we’ll see a little more on Saturday. youtu.be/YNUV7wIQQXk?...

We all watched Xavi Simons waltz through Atletico in our stadium a few weeks ago. They’re now in the CL semi finals. Surely RBZ has to just commit and select him for our remaining games?

How bad analytics built a Tottenham team that might get relegated
Tottenham are really bad and looking at the way this team has been constructed, one thing clearly stands out: This team is really bad at passing the ball, and that may explain their present malaise.

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 12/04/2026
This club 😭 I can’t remember what a win feels like. I can barely remember what a goal feels like. When was the last time a player had an 8/10 game in the league? Xavi v City? We are literally the 3rd worst team in the league, like Leicester, Luton or Burnley in recent years.

Industry Season 4 is 10/10 television. The characters become the sharpest, nastiest, most immoral selves in this series, and you’re kept guessing on their end-game. Superb stuff!

Have been at my niece’s first birthday and not seen the game at all. Seeing a lot of anger online. This ‘altogether, always’ thing has to carry on, we can’t turn on the players, there’s no choice at this point. As fans we have to take the hits and keep going till the end.

Best performance for… 6 months??

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 18/03/2026
Fantastic from the lads tonight. I think we were the better team over 2 legs tbh. We literally through the ball in our own net 3 times. But great to get the win at home. Some massive guts being shown in that team right now 💙

I love that from Dragusin, absolute pure Simeone-style performing

Why is Gallagher right wing instead of Porro?

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 05/03/2026
Palace weren’t good until the red card, sorry Joe Cole

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 05/03/2026
So who’s playing where now? And why did we need to take Souza off??
000
Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 05/03/2026
Why would you dive that way when the penalty taker is stuttering like that, they always need power and go left in that instance. FFS

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 05/03/2026
Oh give over Joe Hart, just give us some love on comms for once

Joseph Rivers @josephrivers.bsky.social · 05/03/2026
Palace are giving us an opportunity here, it’s whether we can grab it
