GLORIOUS DAY.

Spurs 3 pts clear of that other North London team and just straight dominated today despite the 2-1 victory. When that guy makes the map for this game it'll be ridiculous how many xG Spurs earned but just couldn't finish.

 

EDIT: it's in, and yep... :lol: domination.

Opportunity.

It has been 55 years since Tottenham Hotspur won a league title.

By the end of today, a win could have Spurs in first place in the Premier League with just 10 games to go. The Lilywhites have been lifted by an unbelievable seven game winning streak that has pushed the team towards the league lead as the likes of Arsenal and Manchester City have fallen off. Spurs just keep finding ways to win, as unexpected goals by Nacer Chadli and Danny Rose lifted Spurs to a massive 2-1 comeback win over Swansea on Sunday. But with another London derby looming, the test will be on to see if Spurs can rise to the occasion.

Spurs travel to the Boleyn Ground to face a West Ham team that sits in sixth place, just four points behind Manchester City for fourth place. The Hammers have been solid in attack and defense this year, as Dimitri Payet, Manuel Lanzini, and Michail Antonio are threats in attack, while the central defensive pairing of James Collins and Angelo Ogbonna has remained strong.

The biggest test may come in the center of the pitch, as West Ham will try to get the better of a tired and depleted Spurs midfield.

Can Spurs break into first place with a needed London derby win? We shall see.

Hey now, you should be thanking Liverpool for kicking City's ass so your loss wasn't as bad. Fuck you, City. You take our cup, we take your title chances away!

Still not recovered from the L knew it was probably gonna happen ahead of the Arsenal match in a couple days. Didn't start our typical midfield and got bodied in it by Payet the gawd. Who is still all he's been advertised he created the only goal with his great corners. All it took was that snipe at 7 minutes, no more goals after. Atleast in the 2nd half they battered them with attacks and it was competitive but gotta beat Arsenal now just to keep up with Lester. :pls:

Welp, since Detroit doesn't seem like the whole MLS thing will happen anytime soon, I've decided since I live in Oregon and already have Timbers hear, I'll start cheering for them. So I now have an MLS team.

Should of had 3 in the first half but Guzan went God Mode for most of it. Crazy saves, paired with some bad finishing luck.

Guzan is incapable of being competent must have been mostly the latter.

Prepare to get slaughtered. Seriously, Spurs played weak squads against them basically waving the white flag to focus on the League Title but Dortmund is by far the best team Spurs have played this year. They're really good.
