dylanisabaddog 4,961 Posted August 26, 2023 Bournemouth Spurs first up. I know it's lunchtime and it's on TV but there are a lot of empty seats. It's against Spurs FFS. No wonder they don't bother with a new stadium. Anyway, it will be interesting to see Max. James Maddison already looking good at Spurs Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, I suspect that if he wasn't such an insufferable twonk he would have been signed by a top four club , for lots more. Having a good game today . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ken Hairy 3,774 Posted August 26, 2023 Got it on in the background, every time I look up Maddison is at the heart of everything good happening, can't say I've noticed Aarons at all, but like I say not 100% paying attention Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BroadstairsR 2,189 Posted August 26, 2023 Spurs looking better than they have for a couple of seasons and Maddison is one major reason for that, he's been top class. My (very) second team Tottenham, that is if I have one. With us now Chumps they'd be my preference in the PL, and as I said are looking good. There is an argument to suggest that the absence of and reliance upon Harry Kane for so long might actually have given them a new dimension and be of benefit. Strange to say, but comparisons might also be made with Pukki at City. We now seem more full of goals than we have for some time, with the ones that we are scoring being of greater variety. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have 2 friends who are big Spurs fans and like seeing them do well. Kane is probably the best in the world at what he does but they look so much better without him. The only one that doesn't convince me is Richarlison. It might help if he looked like he gave a damn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Richarlison is a decent player but there's no doubt but he has his issues. Clearly rather hot headed and quick tempered and has been known for some behind the scenes drama from time to time. If he gets his head on right he could be great but how many players have we said similar about in the past?

They can only be STs holders not turning up. Very odd. Can't make it v Spurs and you don't know anyone who would want a ticket ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whilst his on-field persona certainly comes across this way, he is supposed to be a very good egg off the pitch, giving a lot of time and money to charity and good causes.

It's happened quite a lot in the past, where teams lose a star player and then improve as other players take more responsibility. I still think that Kane instead Richarlison in this team would improve it, mind. I really like Postecoglou as a bloke and a coach, and I hope Spurs do well this season. Hopefully the job doesn't prove too big for him, in the same way that Chelsea was too much of a jump for Potter. With that £100m they received for Kane still in the bank, it'd be nice to see Levy approve a big signing or two which would improve the team and help Postecoglou mould a side in his style.
