I reckon as long as you beat City next week, and then Chelski 2 weeks after...the title is yours.

Looks like Tim Sherwood is to be let go at Spurs at the end of the season.

Shouldn't have been given the job in the first place.

They were waiting for Louis van gaal who is stepping down from the Holland job after the world cup.

Poor Steedeel. You guys got smashed in the second half yesterday. Wow. I didn't expect that. I hate to agree now, but you guys are done. I thought there would be more fight, more pride in this team than that. It's disappointing.

I have been saying that for a long time. We have looked done for a long time. We aren't a team and it showed last night. I was proud of one player only. Lee Cattermole. Gave it everything and looked furious and embarrassed at the final whistle. If the rest of the team had pride in the shirt we wouldn't be in this position. I don't know where to start with the problems. Vergini (I call him something different) is so obviously not up to premier league standard. Ki goes missing for huge chunks of the game IMO. Bridcutt hasn't stamped any authority on the midfield yet, Johnson only plays when he feels like it (IMO) and we have probably the worst strike force in the history of the premier league. Altidore is so bad he has been dropped from a team that already has their main striker out through injury. Connor wickham IMO, seems more concerned about his hair than our predicament. Gutless, spineless and they have let the fans down. The manager by the way, has lost the plot.
So, let's keep Cattermole and Mannone and get rid of this shambles of a football team.

As long as they leave De Boer alone at Ajax, they can go for whoever they want.

Trust me...whatever league your in next season...you DO NOT need Cattermole around.

He's a constant hot head, and for me, his performance last night was a one off.

I disagree. There is a good player in there somewhere and I think we need his drive in the championship. Plenty of teams will try to bully us next year.

It's a shame that he's the only one that seems to care. By the way, who was respobsible for putting together most of this squad? Just curious. And yes, you guys need a thorough makeover.

Director of football de fanti but I believe everyone has some element of blame attached. Di canio was a fiasco as well. Plus our director Ellis short must share some blame.

Director of football is a role that does not work in English football you only have to look at the way spurs did their transfer dealings in the summer.

Somewhere, maybe...just extremely difficult to find.

For me, he's just way OTT and hot headed.

His disciplinary record speaks for itself.

Let's face it though...barring John W. Henry at Liverpool...American's have never had much success when it's come to buying British Football Clubs.
