I love how you say they struggle against lower mid-table clubs, right after saying they beat Manchester United 3-0, giving an example of a time they performed well against a lower mid-table club.
As an American spurs fan, I chose them because they are just straight up fun. I love the players, the kit, the chants, the way they play, etc. Being outside of England you hear some banter, but not to the point where I imagine it'd be living in London so from that perspective I don't mind it. Admitedly there's also a bit of a masochistic side of me that doesn't want to just pick the easiest route (ie City, Liverpool, or even other dominant clubs outside of England) and would rather support the underdog with the hope that one day they will win something (which even if it takes another 16 years I do genuinely think it will happen and I already know the mental high will be incredible). COYS
Being the only Spurs fan in nor cal where everyone is an Arsenal supporter. I've had fellow Californians talk shit to me at Disneyland with my family cause I was wearing my spurs jersey. Bring it on COYS
Let me clarify as a born and bred Liverpool supporter. Especially since I saw the First Division and saw the creation of the EPL in 1992 and saw the dominance of SAF's class of 92 and yanited..........supporting Liverpool in the EPL era...is NOT a bloody easy route😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 They blew hit and cold....... before Klopp/Mo/VVD/Ali......probably he squad with Stevie/Xabi/Luis/Dudek.....felt like the strongest......
Tottenham destroying Man City and losing to relegation clubs and giving them their first wins in the Premier League. It truly is the history of the Tottenham as one great Italian philosopher once said.😂😂😂
Okay, a man of broken English whose club has very little reputation, and that said club bottled it in CL finals, had no right to make disparaging comments about anyone.
@@ontheturningawayhe's won titles, his club won titles, as recently as last year in the Coppa Italia. Yes, Juve bottled the UCL final 7 times, but they've won it twice which Spurs can never say (Cup Winner's Cup doesn't count, and the UEFA Cup is more equivalent to the Europa League anyways). He can say whatever he wants when he alone has won 24 trophies, including the Euros; adding salt to the wound that Spurs hasn't won anything since 2008
@@humphreywolfe Juventus are a disgrace who deservedly were stripped of their titles and were relegated for cheating. Serie A is a joke of a league, crumbling infrastructure, no money, no competitiveness, Senegalese street criminals who harass you outside the stadium etc.
@ontheturningaway broken English is a measure of intelligence? I don't wanna hear a spurs fan talk about bottling. He's won more trophies than your entire club so he can talk
@@thephysicsfrontier3167 Pesky UA-cam removing my original reply. They didn’t like my comment about Senegalese outside Italian stadiums. Anyway, Calciopoli.
As a spurs fan, I think the main thing is that Ange's system requires every player to give 100%. This means that for games against tougher opposition, we play so well because they're giving everything, and in other cases (E.g. West Ham, Brentford) we only played better once they scored first, to try to overcome it. When it comes to teams like Palace or Ipswich, there's a hint of complacency, thinking that we'll win anyway even when they've scored, thus making us wake up far too late to make much of a difference within the game.
As a lifelong Liverpool fan, I am familiar with the inconsistency of form under Klopp. Spurs have to be patient, yes this is mid table form but we know they can win
Exactly what I’ve been saying to Spurs fans. Most of them know it too and they back Ange. They see some good fundamentals happening, most goals scored in PL and 3rd best goals conceded. It’s just a minority of social media whiners that don’t get it.
The spuds fans were already asking for #angeout and #sonout when they lost to the tractor boys. Ungrateful pos😂😂😂😂 This reflects why Jose was sacked......the heritage of spuds. No patience...wanting Pep's sort of immediate success.....was ridiculous.
If you look at how spurs conceded, alot of their issues boil down to individual mistakes, a defender ball watching or over committing has been their biggest thorn
A few things to nitpick about Vizeh here: - "wHy dO YoU suPPorT a cLUb tHat haSN'nT woN ANyitHing?" - bruh make your engagement baits a bit classier. Your club is your club, win or lose. - You say consistent when you mean inconsistent
Maybe the Spurs thing is coming from the point of view of bandwagoning and people starting to support teams not in their area cus of their top club status. I think what he's trying to say in that regard, "if you're after success and glory why did you choose Spurs?" Now while I don't support Spurs they are prolly my favorite club out of the top 6 out of a neutral perspective because of their style of play during the poch era and their somewhat easy likeablity and one of bffs is a spurs fan. The whole concept of the top 6 clubs comes from their success and performance in league tables overall, but compared to the others the outlier here is the lack off success to show for their reputation as opposed to their compatriots.
This the stupid taboo that needs to be broken once we win a trophy watch the world go mad and finally have some respect to our name. I’m just so tired of people when I say I’m spurs fan it’s so fucking annoying but for every non spurs fan I always find that one spurs to talk to in the pub
@@MrPallable Even though if my club dosen't win anything, I will still support them, it's that unwilling loyalty (from what I've seen) that separates other top clubs from the spurs, I have had many united and liverpool friends who have always switched clubs, 2021-Chelsea 2020-Liverpool When someone sports Spurs, It means that they do not care about trophies, its that loyalty that keeps me going
I’ve been asked by a lot of my Family and friends (of which support West ham and Palace) why I support Tottenham, I believe you sort of just know/ find out once you go, it can’t really be forced. Luckily my Dad was a Tottenham fan and I was so soo lucky I was born and got to experience the early 2000s. I new 100% that I was at the right place when I went to Defoe’s last game for my Birthday (which was a 2 - 1 win against palace with also Defoe scoring) and it was amazing the way everyone connected over one thing making you feel at home just has the most unforgettable feeling. I did fall a little out of Football during our stay at Wembley, but when the stadium was finished we decided to go back up there, went on the tour during the first week of it’s release, with also Tickets to the Pre season match against Inter Milan. I’ll say I’ll never forget the Pre season match, it was amazing the Football was alright that day but the Fans and the atmosphere I’ll never forget. I was lucky enough to go to the Kane Homecoming match this pre season and it was just as amazing as it’s always been, especially the way we gave respect to Kane for his service and loyalty to the club. Just making me realise I chose the right club to stick by, even if the road ain’t always perfect.
as a milan fan i understand. we beat inter then lose to fiorentina. then beat real madrid, but draw 3-3 against relegation side cagliari! good players can make a good team, but being 100% mentally every game is the most important. just feels like we just fall asleep against weaker sides.
It was the same at Celtic, always did well against teams that gave us a good go, but the hardest games to watch for us were always against the lowest ranked sides because they would just have 11 men in the box, it works well when the team you are playing against tries to actually play football but its shaky when they dont.
So as someone not born in England, I think spurs being the club I support was a good choice, like they are definitely good, but not good enough to just win trophies. So when they finally take that next step and get over the line I think it’ll be pretty satisfying. Also am I the only one that thinks Tottenham could’ve won stuff with poch if he actually got money? I mean the team they assembled from 2015-2019 was really good, but they never had enough depth since the new stadium was being constructed. Like it was the same story about not having enough int he transfer budget to get some more depth. Being able to challenge for the prem title twice and get to the Ucl final should’ve been the sign that this team could actually win things if they maybe have some super sub if they needed some goal when they were struggling. Idk I just think they actually could’ve won a lot had Poch actually had money to spend.
I don't think it's the money bro. It's the culture. You guys sacked Mourinho DAYS before a cup final ffs😂. Your lack of winning starts from the top w Levy.
As a Spurs fan, it's been painful since the first day. We gain hope and then just lose it in the most pathetic way. This happened when we lost to Burnley and then won against City 2 years ago under Conte. If you're asking me why I support my club, I've been asking myself that same exact question for the last decade
lol my dad was one so I was grown up as a Tottenham fan.Our problem in my opinion against some teams is that they,every time we try to get space,10 players are spread out against us.We need to just run at them and when we have a counter attack,we don’t run at them but we wait abit,and they bring a whole army to defend.We need to just run at them for god’s sake.Our defenders are good,but we need a better set piece coach.But other than that,I think we are good enough but need that cutting edge
I grew up going to White Hart Lane a lot. I grew up in the late 2000s and early 2010s. I've watched players like Bale, Modric, De Foe, Kane, Son, and so on. Honestly, I probably say I wouldn't be a Spurs fan if it wasn't in the family. The joy and misery of supporting them is what makes the experience feel more real. And it's our history that made me fall in love with Spurs. We've had legends like Greaves, Mackay, Nicholson, Ardiles, Hazard, and so on. Watching the 100 Years of Spurs documentary probably helped, too. Whenever I put on that lilywhite jersey, I always do so with a smile. Don't know what the next game will bring, but I'll be there for Spurs no matter what. Through thick or thin.
Spurs fan from the US: I wasn’t able to watch footy until I was about 10-12 and when I finally was able to, the first game I watched was a Spurs game that Bale absolutely dominated. So I started watching them for him, but after he left I just kept watching them week in and week out and they ended up with the squad of Eriksen, Kane, Son, Dele under Poch and I fell in love with them. The colors, the stadium(s), the “classy” font, idk, something just felt right. I’ve thought about like becoming a neutral, since I’m an American who doesn’t really have a local MLS team, just to see if I could find a new team eventually, but I couldn’t stop following Spurs. They always FEEL like they can win something because they’re always good enough to make you believe, and that’s what’s exciting because the day they do win something the joy all the fans are going to get is going to be absolutely mental. Spurs just feel like my team, and I truly believe I’ll always feel that way.
I think spurs are the most misunderstood team in the league. Tottenham are definitly not a counter-attacking team. They are an ambitious team that use a constant attack mentality as a way to bring the team together. The players they use are to really exagerrate the style. The are still getiting better every game, still building, and i believe when you watch full games, you see the philosophy and how unique Ange has made this team. Also it brings a sense if belief too if anything, that anything can happen if they pushing, ie shieffeld united last season, mancity draw last season, first burnely game last season, first chelsea game last season. The proof becomes apparent.
I am a Tottenham fan because when i first watched them they were playing really good. That's an unpredictable club, that does magic like beating Ajax, getting Bergwejn score 2 on last minutes against Leicester, thrashing whole Manchester and etc. But yeah, these Ipswiches can't give us a good shot at any trophy competition. I still love this club tho, i feel myself at home here even though I've never been in London, England, any foreign country at all. I have a feeling we'll win a trophy this year. We sure can. We just. Need. Consistence.
Spurs just feel like the perfect underdog team from someone on the outside (who isn’t from Europe), there’s a tragic angle to it and there’s always real potential which makes it more exciting (and more painful). I used to really only watch international competitions and UCL big games, so when I started watching PL games I watched different matches from all the teams and I just liked something about the Spurs story, like they were a real protagonist in the merciless world of football. The other big teams felt wrong, like can you really celebrate a man city trophy if you were able to “choose” that team? Obviously yes, but you get what I mean. The other teams kind of blur together to casuals if you’re not English. Ironically I was rooting for Liverpool when Spurs were in that UCL final. Everyone from my part of the world wanted Salah to lift it, and I thought “oh those other guys have Harry Kane and Lloris and Dele freaking Alli, surely they win all the time”. lol Not sure I count as a fan, but they’re the team I’m currently following
Spurs went from a QPR or at best a West Ham level to being a "top 6" club. Unlike every other big club in the premier league, they did it with continued and building success, no* oligarchs or dictators or etc. Thats something a spurs fan should take pride in, growth by success. Not winning and lack of trophies is such a low hanging fruit point to make. Vast majority of clubs across the world won't make it to Spurs level. Slow and steady. Let the haters hate.
@@mikexstad1121QPR or even worse Wet Spam level is harsh man we were one of the biggest clubs in the country pre Premier League but the 90s and 2000s for the most part we weren't very good
Seems a bit weird to specifically criticise Spurs for not winning trophies when 95% of the other teams in England have also won very little recently. At least Spurs aren’t monotonous and boring. So to answer you question as to “why”: You can either jump on the glory hunting bandwagon and support one of the obvious teams because you’re a weak willed sheep. Or you could support one of the other teams who don’t win much and be bored by how consistently mid they are and how they play to scrape wins. Or you could support Spurs and ride a batsht mental rollercoaster every weekend where you’re guaranteed brave/stupid football, goals in either end, and endless bipolar drama. The question shouldn’t be why. The question should be why not. (there’s also another obvious reason: because local club/family ties, so asking why is just silly anyway).
Im a spurs fan cuz my mate told me to go for spurs cuz he does. I checked it out and found myself watching often, loving the players and community and as an aussie gotta love ange
ive been a barca fan my whole life and spurs are the team i support in england because of audere est facere. simple, beautiful philosophy that i found really attractive as a young idealistic cruyffista & i still see it as the core identity of the club, not everything surrounding "spursy". ange embodies to dare is to do better than poch in a way i have never witnessed before. its beautiful and i hope the trophies come with it. i really wish they got some silverware in 2016/17 though, beautiful season by a beautiful side that deserved more.
Spursy according to dictionary: "To capitulate for no apparent reason." They looked to achieve some notable feat, but then before they cross the finish line they start losing for no apparent reason.
Sadly a spurs fan. In highschool I tore my ACL and basically just had to quit soccer. I’m from the US so I really didn’t watch the sport only really played. All my friends watched the prem but me so one day after physical therapy I turned on a game. And saw this amazing player named Heung min Son. His style of played enlightened me as an ex winger and wished I had seen him play whilst playing. The smile he carried while playing was contagious. And ofc the one man army Harry Kane really made it a done deal. Now 13 years later I hate and love my team so much.
Spurs fan here You aint wrong I support my club because I didnt wanna be a bandwagon fan when i began watching in 2017/2018 As a Boston sports fan I have been spoiled in glory across the numerous sports teams we have, Patriots primarily- not great now but amazing as a kid back then Poch and plyers like Eriksen and Dembele made this team stand out, when it came time to pick my club for this new sport I wanted to follow Almost chose Brighton, almost chose City- I was verrrry close to city but heard they were the reigning champions and did not wanna pick them Then one day I caught a game of West ham vs Spurs and Tottenham just had this magical pull to me- I understood the flow of the game and the tactical understanding of our identity Pochettino instilled it- to a nonfollower like me, I learned about our history, the founding, the ups and downs, the heartbreaks But i still wouldn’t change it for any other club as insane as they drive me, Levy Out would be our greatest advancement if anything but until the we have to be masochists and support the club and the players for what I hope is the last painful rebuild and stick to a manager and break the cycle of inconsistency
I love being a Spurs fan, it has destroyed my life. We have an underdog flare that makes us hope and pray we can pull off what others have deemed impossible for us and I think the anticipation of something greater has brought us to this club. Do we experience confusion and suffering often? Absolutely. But the joy we feel when we win something with all odds against us is just so immeasurable I just couldn't see myself with another club. It's insanity but I love it. I hope we get a trophy one day because it does suck being made fun of all the time and I hate it.
The biggest difference I would say compared to before is their Goal difference is standing out big now, they surely can't be far away from a run of some sorts, Ange has them playing alot different with their attacking first style, their main weakness is obviously against the lower quality sides and leaving open gaping holes for the counter attack and really it's the only thing they need to solve to transform the team at this point. It's very similar to early Kloop at Liverpool I would say.
my dad was born in the almost center of england (chesterfield a 20 min drive south of Sheffield ) growing up in the late 80s early 90s there was united and liverpool dominating for a long time. My dad in all his wisdom chose to put the rest of his bloodline in purgatory. he loved to watch gazza as a kid and names him the reason he and in extension i support spurs. (we still follow chesterfield and go to games, support your local) We can beat anyone but we can and will loose to everyone. its been better to watch anges style than jose or conte but sometimes it feels like watching england in the euros. passing around the box with little direction, putting a risky ball though to no one and being on the counter. Theres been quite a few injuries this year (were playing a welsh full back and a 22 year old Romanian as the centre backs)
Truly been a spurs fan since the porch arrival it introduced me to a new style of ball and the likes of A young Kane son eriksen solid first team and great matches even though they didn’t all end it W it was amazing and shout to that 19 CL season and being consistent on giving youth players a chance, and having brought in good prospects and good mid table players I feel the team is too comfortable with that and at times it does frustrate us but I feel we are just a winger away someone like a mbuembo from brentford
Ange is the right man to sort Spurs out. His mentality IS different. Ange is not “Spursy”. Give him the time he needs to change the clubs mentality. What other managers who would be available in the next 12 months could do this? It would be a very small list imo.
I started supporting Spurs in the early 70s when I was a kid, because all the other kids where I live supported Liverpool or United.Btw I saw them win 3 cups within my first 4 years travelling with them.COYS.
Leaving aside Newcastle and the gooners, which were two games they didn't really deserve to lose, and you may notice a pattern in the other 3 defeats they've had this season. They all came after Europa League games on the Thursday night, whereas 5 of their 6 of their wins didn't, the exception being a 0-3 win at Man U, who are also playing in the Europa. So Spurs play Roma this Thursday night, followed by Fulham on Sunday. Lets see if they struggle to overcome a team who just got battered by Wolves at home.
Spurs fans support spurs not because of titles, but because of family ties or usually location, both are my reasons. In terms of fans, i think we're the most hungry in terms of titles but also one of the most genuine football clubs for fans, no glory hunter will support spurs unless you were born in the 60's, 70's or 80's. Every top 6 side bar spurs bought their titles. We have never spent money like we are now, and even then, the money we have spent under ange, 50-60% of the players are prospects and depth. I think the timer is ticking down, i think the trophy drought will end sooner rather than later, may not even be this season, but it feels like we are going in the right direction.
I'm a Spurs fan, O started supporting Barca 2016 and Spurs 2017, I honestly fell for the style of play. Being a Spurs fan is hard you live with "what ifs" Right now the big what if is :( What if we held on v Brighton, Leicester and just beat Palace and Ipswich like a normal big team. Watching our games What I've seen is that the way to beat Tottenham Hotspur is to sit back park an air bus and wait for an opening and hurt them, like Arsenal and many more.
Tottenham is the death or glory team. As a fan you are always on edge. Spurs are always worth a watch. Everyone always has some comment about them. They are not boring.
Australian spurs fan. ITS A RIDE BABY. When we got Ange, it was like ya dad becoming coach, you just hope it works and it makes you feel ill with hope! Cmon Spuds!!
This exact stretch of games has made me tap out of club football almost completely. I can’t stand the inconsistency. How can I expect Spurs to rise to the occasion and win a trophy when they can’t beat Ipswich at home? Last year I felt amazing after the Villa game, then felt like garbage when they lost to Fulham. The Brighton away game that was embarrassing, Ange is in his second season and the new Brighton manager is in his first year with the club, that advantage should have been felt. Palace away and Ipswich at home were so infuriating. If they make it to a final, I will watch otherwise I’m staying out of it.
Timo is not too bad, he just can’t finnish but he is still what you expect from a playmaking winger, good at passing and that’s the good thing about him, we just need a big leader in the squad
Spurs just do spurs things thinking back to one of their best seasons 94/95 they had Klinsmann and Sheringham up front ffs and still won fek all! Nothing has changed in 30 years....😂
Not having this narrative, it just shows that no game in the premier league is guaranteed points, just people creating a narrative to cope with the fact that they assumed that these results couldnt happen and therefore they were wrong.
Spurs fan here, and while you did get some of the problems at the club, you missed out on some big points. Problem 1: we signed loads of young players. Although these lads will probably win trophies in the next few years(whether its with us or someone else), right now the wonderkids that weve signed are struggling to make a noticeable impact on our results. The one player that weve signed that isnt a wonderkid, dominic solanke, is having a huge impact right now which shows how much we still need to do in the transfer market. Which brings me to the second problem: lack of leadership. As much as i love sonny, he isnt a leader. Hugo lloris, harry kane, even hojbjerg, are leaders, but nobody in our squad has that kind of leadership mentality where they feel the obligation to set the bar high every game, no matter the opposition or the form theyre in. It has a huge impact that you can see in games like ipswich where nobody seemed to want to win. Once we do fix these problems though im willing to bet my life savings ange will end our trophy drought.
As a Spurs supporter, I think it has to be so boring supporting a club that always wins. Yes It blows watching an unrecognizable team lose to Ipswich, but every time they come back to tie or win in the final minutes of a match (like, all the time) then it makes it worth the heart palpitations. It’s that explosion of emotion and unpredictability that makes this game so entertaining imo. I’d almost rather watch a game on the edge of my seat waiting for a comeback than one where they dominate. Unless of course, it’s City 😏
It’s not that confusing. Styles make fights. They counter City’s possession style, but are bad against Chelsea, and then teams that play low blocks. Their way of playing football doesn’t work against most defensively sound teams that don’t play forward as much and rely on counters.
I support Spurs because they are my local club. The game of football started before the Premier League. Successes are cyclical for instance when Spurs won the double, Liverpool were recovering from relegation. Spurs were robbed in the European Cup against Benfica. That squad should have won the cup that season. John White being killed on the golf course in 64 effectively ended their dominance in that era. I do believe they would have won the trophy in 65. Spurs were a big reason why British clubs became more confident in European Cup Competitions against horrendously biased refs. This was caused by the fact that British clubs didn't take the European Cup seriously in the earlier days with clubs sometimes electing not to compete. It makes the achievements of Spurs Manchester and Liverpool over the next 15 years so remarkable. Remember too that Graham Souness was a youth player at Spurs at the time wasn't good enough to get into the squad ...No way he could replace Dave McKay but what he learned there was invaluable for his future career. Spurs are my club and I have watched football for the best part of 60 years. I resent the tags we get by hack pundits who's appreciations of the game are based on post Premier League narratives. The game now needs to change its name to Moneyball because it has lost its soul a bit like my club. Spurs were the first football Plc and Keith Burkenshaw said 40years ago "there used to be a Football Club here"...he was right.
It’s a mentality thing. If you actually watch our games you would realise the players legit dont take games we play against “lower” teams seriously. They play lacklustre and space out cos they think we’re 1) up or 2) just think we will win cos we have more talented players.
Don’t agree with the point about Brennan and Dom Solanke. Cherries played very modern football in which Dom excelled, proving to be pressing and goal scoring machine, he plays great for Tottenham. As for Brennan - Ange likes to use fast wingers that do the low cross or arrive late to the box and finish. Johnson is exactly this type of player. The whole point is lazy to be honest. Look at Klopp’s Liverpool, they’ve bought Mane and Van Dijk from Southampton, Robbo from relegated Hull and Salah from mediocre Roma. All of those became the best in their positions.
Never a dull moment supporting Spurs. Imo- all football clubs are on a roller coaster. But Tottenham Hotspur is like the scariest ride at the theme park (which is consistently where you find the longest queues to get on board). So Tottenham fans might just be a big bunch of thrill seekers.
I am a spurs fan because I have followed Ange and his second season wonder patterns. We won't win the league this year but he's excellent at rebuilding teams.
But spurs aren’t a counter-attacking team anymore. They are a high-pressing team now, rigid in their methods and won’t budge for anyone or in response to pressure
for my eye, there's two major things Spurs need 1. depth, I'm Australian, I know what Ange is like from his time with our NT, and you need players to rotate through, they will get tired, they will need time, especially over an entire season, it's exhausting, their depth rn, let's be real, is shit, they have a first 11 that could win the league, it's that strong but unlike the teams that do win the league, that's where it stops, how many players from their next 8 could win a league? cause if the answer is less than 5, they won't, and that answer is what? 1, 2 if we're generous, so a few injuries, especially to key areas in the spine, as shown especially with VDV, they're in trouble, and it's not a unique to Spurs issues, it happened to Arsenal when they were building under Arteta, Liverpool under Klopp, Spurs is in that same bracket, a good team, but without the boundless wealth of City, United, Chelsea, so it takes time to build the team, but moreso the depth but the second issue 2. they don't have that one player who can just go "goal somewhere" and just turn those draws into wins, losses into draws, now don't get me wrong, these players aren't easy to find, they did have one for a long time in Harry Kane, but they just need to find another one, whether they try to find an unearthed talent in their academy, or maybe an even riskier play of trying to pull a young player out the Championship, cause I doubt they'll be able to sign a proven made player like this cause they're the ones with the biggest pricetags, so to try to get one it will be an incredibly risky move if they do, but if it came off it'd work wonders overall, I don't think Spurs fans need to be worried, but I do understand their frustration, if Ange can even get an EFL Cup this season it'd do wonders to keep morals up in fans, so if we do get to pointier ends of the season, maybe throw everything at the Cups if that's the only way silverware will come, but outside that, I think, like Arsenal with Arteta, just time is needed
Tottenham are basically at the phase of the project where they got to get the talent to get the system to be second nature. Johnson is basically the poster of the process here. These are the growing pains you go through before you take that next step with a system. Firmly believe they win the EFL Cup and Euro League with how they are progressing.
Became a Spurs fan coz they're good, but unique... and they're underdogs in comparison to the traditional top-4... always striving for success. Being trophyless sucks, but the journey has been amazing - you learn to be grateful and not a spoilt brat like so many online Madrid or Barca fans (who aren't even from Spain). Lucas Moura's 90+5 min goal vs. Ajax was the pinnacle of it all. Dreams!!!
2 league titles. 8 fa cups. 4 league cups. 7 fa community shields. 1 european cup. and 2 uefa cups making them the 6th most successful club in england so hardly trophyless.
I support Atleti so i emotionally go through it constantly, but Tottenham us a beast I will never tame. Never ask such people the reason for their support
For me I never really liked football when I was kid but seeing an Asian player sonny, as a half Asian myself I felt such a connection to the game and I picked spurs. But as I got more into football. Spurs is the prime example of a club that’s not a sell out to any oil money and they have no sketchy sponsors. No matter how many hate levy he is a brilliant businessman and I hope he gives more power to Ange now. Ange is a beacon of hope. And I do pray we win something this year. I’m so tired of hearing spurs this spurs that weird taboo jokes over and over again.
It was so wonderful seeing him grow the Asian community. I know there’s been other Asian legends but undeniably sonny bought the community to the next level. Kinda like the Japanese baseball player. Just shows there is exceptional talent in the Asian community.
why are you a spurs fan? what type of question is that. A fan is fan because they love the club . They are fan not a glory chaser. You are a Burnley fan for Christ sake.
The heart wants what it wants my dear . Not because of trophies and achievements ... But they give something that reflects your real life, you can't always win . Sometimes , take that as a lesson and prepare for next
Lets just say Tottenham is the Robin Hood of the PL right now😂😂 Taking points from the big rich clubs and give them to the poor smaller clubs…that’s major charity work
6th generation Spurs supporter, we started before 1901. Remember the 60s side. Jewish. Love their appreciation of flair and intense characters. We will win....everything. Again.
Best night ever when I was in manny watching the match in the pub and one guy had to audacity to stand up “what do you think of spurs” while 2 nill down😂😂

Nice, well played😂
As an American spurs fan, I chose them because they are just straight up fun. I love the players, the kit, the chants, the way they play, etc. Being outside of England you hear some banter, but not to the point where I imagine it'd be living in London so from that perspective I don't mind it. Admitedly there's also a bit of a masochistic side of me that doesn't want to just pick the easiest route (ie City, Liverpool, or even other dominant clubs outside of England) and would rather support the underdog with the hope that one day they will win something (which even if it takes another 16 years I do genuinely think it will happen and I already know the mental high will be incredible).

Well said.

Let me clarify as a born and bred Liverpool supporter. Especially since I saw the First Division and saw the creation of the EPL in 1992 and saw the dominance of SAF's class of 92 and yanited..........supporting Liverpool in the EPL era...is NOT a bloody easy route😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
They blew hit and cold....... before Klopp/Mo/VVD/Ali......probably he squad with Stevie/Xabi/Luis/Dudek.....felt like the strongest......
Yeah, being a Spurs fan is fun. Wembanyama is a one of a kind player.
Oof. Wrong sports.
Tottenham destroying Man City and losing to relegation clubs and giving them their first wins in the Premier League. It truly is the history of the Tottenham as one great Italian philosopher once said.😂😂😂
Okay, a man of broken English whose club has very little reputation, and that said club bottled it in CL finals, had no right to make disparaging comments about anyone.
@@ontheturningawayhe's won titles, his club won titles, as recently as last year in the Coppa Italia. Yes, Juve bottled the UCL final 7 times, but they've won it twice which Spurs can never say (Cup Winner's Cup doesn't count, and the UEFA Cup is more equivalent to the Europa League anyways). He can say whatever he wants when he alone has won 24 trophies, including the Euros; adding salt to the wound that Spurs hasn't won anything since 2008
@@humphreywolfe Juventus are a disgrace who deservedly were stripped of their titles and were relegated for cheating. Serie A is a joke of a league, crumbling infrastructure, no money, no competitiveness, Senegalese street criminals who harass you outside the stadium etc.
@ontheturningaway broken English is a measure of intelligence? I don't wanna hear a spurs fan talk about bottling. He's won more trophies than your entire club so he can talk
@@thephysicsfrontier3167 Pesky UA-cam removing my original reply. They didn’t like my comment about Senegalese outside Italian stadiums. Anyway, Calciopoli.
As a spurs fan, I think the main thing is that Ange's system requires every player to give 100%. This means that for games against tougher opposition, we play so well because they're giving everything, and in other cases (E.g. West Ham, Brentford) we only played better once they scored first, to try to overcome it. When it comes to teams like Palace or Ipswich, there's a hint of complacency, thinking that we'll win anyway even when they've scored, thus making us wake up far too late to make much of a difference within the game.
I think the amount of games you play too doesn’t help, rotation is not helpful to you at all
Spot on
As a lifelong Liverpool fan, I am familiar with the inconsistency of form under Klopp. Spurs have to be patient, yes this is mid table form but we know they can win
That’s good point actually, I can see the similarities
Exactly what I’ve been saying to Spurs fans. Most of them know it too and they back Ange. They see some good fundamentals happening, most goals scored in PL and 3rd best goals conceded. It’s just a minority of social media whiners that don’t get it.
The spuds fans were already asking for #angeout and #sonout when they lost to the tractor boys.
Ungrateful pos😂😂😂😂
This reflects why Jose was sacked......the heritage of spuds.
No patience...wanting Pep's sort of immediate success.....was ridiculous.
@@isthatmysatay no they weren't...
If you look at how spurs conceded, alot of their issues boil down to individual mistakes, a defender ball watching or over committing has been their biggest thorn

Maybe the Spurs thing is coming from the point of view of bandwagoning and people starting to support teams not in their area cus of their top club status.
I think what he's trying to say in that regard, "if you're after success and glory why did you choose Spurs?"
Now while I don't support Spurs they are prolly my favorite club out of the top 6 out of a neutral perspective because of their style of play during the poch era and their somewhat easy likeablity and one of bffs is a spurs fan.
The whole concept of the top 6 clubs comes from their success and performance in league tables overall, but compared to the others the outlier here is the lack off success to show for their reputation as opposed to their compatriots.
This the stupid taboo that needs to be broken once we win a trophy watch the world go mad and finally have some respect to our name. I’m just so tired of people when I say I’m spurs fan it’s so fucking annoying but for every non spurs fan I always find that one spurs to talk to in the pub
@@MrPallable Even though if my club dosen't win anything, I will still support them, it's that unwilling loyalty (from what I've seen) that separates other top clubs from the spurs, I have had many united and liverpool friends who have always switched clubs, 2021-Chelsea 2020-Liverpool When someone sports Spurs, It means that they do not care about trophies, its that loyalty that keeps me going
@@blizWashere475 I think most people who go and support a team has this same attitude. Vast majority of clubs don't win anything.
I’ve been asked by a lot of my Family and friends (of which support West ham and Palace) why I support Tottenham, I believe you sort of just know/ find out once you go, it can’t really be forced.
Luckily my Dad was a Tottenham fan and I was so soo lucky I was born and got to experience the early 2000s.
I new 100% that I was at the right place when I went to Defoe’s last game for my Birthday (which was a 2 - 1 win against palace with also Defoe scoring) and it was amazing the way everyone connected over one thing making you feel at home just has the most unforgettable feeling.
I did fall a little out of Football during our stay at Wembley, but when the stadium was finished we decided to go back up there, went on the tour during the first week of it’s release, with also Tickets to the Pre season match against Inter Milan.
I’ll say I’ll never forget the Pre season match, it was amazing the Football was alright that day but the Fans and the atmosphere I’ll never forget.
I was lucky enough to go to the Kane Homecoming match this pre season and it was just as amazing as it’s always been, especially the way we gave respect to Kane for his service and loyalty to the club.
Just making me realise I chose the right club to stick by, even if the road ain’t always perfect.
as a milan fan i understand. we beat inter then lose to fiorentina. then beat real madrid, but draw 3-3 against relegation side cagliari! good players can make a good team, but being 100% mentally every game is the most important. just feels like we just fall asleep against weaker sides.
It was the same at Celtic, always did well against teams that gave us a good go, but the hardest games to watch for us were always against the lowest ranked sides because they would just have 11 men in the box, it works well when the team you are playing against tries to actually play football but its shaky when they dont.
Agreed.
So as someone not born in England, I think spurs being the club I support was a good choice, like they are definitely good, but not good enough to just win trophies. So when they finally take that next step and get over the line I think it’ll be pretty satisfying.
Also am I the only one that thinks Tottenham could’ve won stuff with poch if he actually got money? I mean the team they assembled from 2015-2019 was really good, but they never had enough depth since the new stadium was being constructed. Like it was the same story about not having enough int he transfer budget to get some more depth.
Being able to challenge for the prem title twice and get to the Ucl final should’ve been the sign that this team could actually win things if they maybe have some super sub if they needed some goal when they were struggling.
Idk I just think they actually could’ve won a lot had Poch actually had money to spend.
I don't think it's the money bro. It's the culture. You guys sacked Mourinho DAYS before a cup final ffs😂. Your lack of winning starts from the top w Levy.
@@dryames4319 the same levy that hasnt had a penny off joe lewis in 24 years to buy footballers.
As a Spurs fan, it's been painful since the first day. We gain hope and then just lose it in the most pathetic way. This happened when we lost to Burnley and then won against City 2 years ago under Conte. If you're asking me why I support my club, I've been asking myself that same exact question for the last decade
As an Ipswich fan i would like to thank spurs for giving us our first prem win in 22 years
Dr Tottenham says you’re welcome
No worries lad. Anytime
A Burnley fan telling me why i am a Spurs fan is gopden.
Right, people now realize why we so emotionless during Poch we had our golden era now it’s numb ange hopefully can get things right
we didn’t lose 1-0 to Luton away, we won 1-0 and Bissouma got sent off.
lol my dad was one so I was grown up as a Tottenham fan.Our problem in my opinion against some teams is that they,every time we try to get space,10 players are spread out against us.We need to just run at them and when we have a counter attack,we don’t run at them but we wait abit,and they bring a whole army to defend.We need to just run at them for god’s sake.Our defenders are good,but we need a better set piece coach.But other than that,I think we are good enough but need that cutting edge
I grew up going to White Hart Lane a lot. I grew up in the late 2000s and early 2010s. I've watched players like Bale, Modric, De Foe, Kane, Son, and so on. Honestly, I probably say I wouldn't be a Spurs fan if it wasn't in the family.
The joy and misery of supporting them is what makes the experience feel more real. And it's our history that made me fall in love with Spurs. We've had legends like Greaves, Mackay, Nicholson, Ardiles, Hazard, and so on.
Watching the 100 Years of Spurs documentary probably helped, too. Whenever I put on that lilywhite jersey, I always do so with a smile. Don't know what the next game will bring, but I'll be there for Spurs no matter what. Through thick or thin.
hazard???
@@damoparker Micky Hazard
I really need to watch Spurs next 3 Premier league games I want to see something.. This club basically the Fiorentina of England.
Fiorentina are the Tottenham of Italy.... Tottenham and all English clubs are much older than all Italian teams
Spurs fan from the US: I wasn’t able to watch footy until I was about 10-12 and when I finally was able to, the first game I watched was a Spurs game that Bale absolutely dominated. So I started watching them for him, but after he left I just kept watching them week in and week out and they ended up with the squad of Eriksen, Kane, Son, Dele under Poch and I fell in love with them. The colors, the stadium(s), the “classy” font, idk, something just felt right.
I’ve thought about like becoming a neutral, since I’m an American who doesn’t really have a local MLS team, just to see if I could find a new team eventually, but I couldn’t stop following Spurs. They always FEEL like they can win something because they’re always good enough to make you believe, and that’s what’s exciting because the day they do win something the joy all the fans are going to get is going to be absolutely mental. Spurs just feel like my team, and I truly believe I’ll always feel that way.
I think spurs are the most misunderstood team in the league. Tottenham are definitly not a counter-attacking team. They are an ambitious team that use a constant attack mentality as a way to bring the team together. The players they use are to really exagerrate the style. The are still getiting better every game, still building, and i believe when you watch full games, you see the philosophy and how unique Ange has made this team. Also it brings a sense if belief too if anything, that anything can happen if they pushing, ie shieffeld united last season, mancity draw last season, first burnely game last season, first chelsea game last season. The proof becomes apparent.
I am a Tottenham fan because when i first watched them they were playing really good. That's an unpredictable club, that does magic like beating Ajax, getting Bergwejn score 2 on last minutes against Leicester, thrashing whole Manchester and etc. But yeah, these Ipswiches can't give us a good shot at any trophy competition. I still love this club tho, i feel myself at home here even though I've never been in London, England, any foreign country at all. I have a feeling we'll win a trophy this year. We sure can. We just. Need. Consistence.
Nathan Connor said it best, "Dr.Tottenham" they either fix you or make you feel more pain.
3:47 why? lad come on! Why are you a Burnley fan?
Exactly 😂 just throw the fucking word back at him
I used to live in North London... I have moved back to Australia now. But you can't just abandon your team! I am not a plastic!
They are very much consistent at being inconsistent. A very weird club indeed. 😂
Spurs just feel like the perfect underdog team from someone on the outside (who isn’t from Europe), there’s a tragic angle to it and there’s always real potential which makes it more exciting (and more painful).
I used to really only watch international competitions and UCL big games, so when I started watching PL games I watched different matches from all the teams and I just liked something about the Spurs story, like they were a real protagonist in the merciless world of football. The other big teams felt wrong, like can you really celebrate a man city trophy if you were able to “choose” that team? Obviously yes, but you get what I mean. The other teams kind of blur together to casuals if you’re not English.
Ironically I was rooting for Liverpool when Spurs were in that UCL final. Everyone from my part of the world wanted Salah to lift it, and I thought “oh those other guys have Harry Kane and Lloris and Dele freaking Alli, surely they win all the time”. lol
Not sure I count as a fan, but they’re the team I’m currently following
"its Tottenham its the history of the Tottenham" famous quote by Chiellini

They're fun to support - thats it.
Trophies/titles are cool too but i just want to have fun when i like something - watching football that is.
Most egregious inconsitantcy from Spurs: beat AC Milan away in the CL Round of 16 in 2011, then lose that weekend to Blackpool.
I'm a spurs fan from America, if you look into Minnesota sports, you'll understand why spurs are a perfect fit.
Spurs went from a QPR or at best a West Ham level to being a "top 6" club. Unlike every other big club in the premier league, they did it with continued and building success, no* oligarchs or dictators or etc. Thats something a spurs fan should take pride in, growth by success. Not winning and lack of trophies is such a low hanging fruit point to make. Vast majority of clubs across the world won't make it to Spurs level. Slow and steady. Let the haters hate.
@@mikexstad1121QPR or even worse Wet Spam level is harsh man we were one of the biggest clubs in the country pre Premier League but the 90s and 2000s for the most part we weren't very good
Seems a bit weird to specifically criticise Spurs for not winning trophies when 95% of the other teams in England have also won very little recently. At least Spurs aren’t monotonous and boring. So to answer you question as to “why”: You can either jump on the glory hunting bandwagon and support one of the obvious teams because you’re a weak willed sheep. Or you could support one of the other teams who don’t win much and be bored by how consistently mid they are and how they play to scrape wins. Or you could support Spurs and ride a batsht mental rollercoaster every weekend where you’re guaranteed brave/stupid football, goals in either end, and endless bipolar drama.
The question shouldn’t be why. The question should be why not.
(there’s also another obvious reason: because local club/family ties, so asking why is just silly anyway).
spurs are fun to watch it feels nice watching the underdogs play well.
They brought solanke cause he has the best pressing stats in the league which is what Tottenham need?
Im a spurs fan cuz my mate told me to go for spurs cuz he does. I checked it out and found myself watching often, loving the players and community and as an aussie gotta love ange
The Chicken on the ball Logo is best looking to me in the pl lmao
ive been a barca fan my whole life and spurs are the team i support in england because of audere est facere. simple, beautiful philosophy that i found really attractive as a young idealistic cruyffista & i still see it as the core identity of the club, not everything surrounding "spursy". ange embodies to dare is to do better than poch in a way i have never witnessed before. its beautiful and i hope the trophies come with it. i really wish they got some silverware in 2016/17 though, beautiful season by a beautiful side that deserved more.
Spurs being spursy
How Spurs jinx it must be studied in universities
Spursy according to dictionary: "To capitulate for no apparent reason."
They looked to achieve some notable feat, but then before they cross the finish line they start losing for no apparent reason.
Sadly a spurs fan. In highschool I tore my ACL and basically just had to quit soccer. I’m from the US so I really didn’t watch the sport only really played. All my friends watched the prem but me so one day after physical therapy I turned on a game. And saw this amazing player named Heung min Son. His style of played enlightened me as an ex winger and wished I had seen him play whilst playing. The smile he carried while playing was contagious. And ofc the one man army Harry Kane really made it a done deal. Now 13 years later I hate and love my team so much.
Spurs fan here
You aint wrong
I support my club because I didnt wanna be a bandwagon fan when i began watching in 2017/2018
As a Boston sports fan I have been spoiled in glory across the numerous sports teams we have, Patriots primarily- not great now but amazing as a kid back then
Poch and plyers like Eriksen and Dembele made this team stand out, when it came time to pick my club for this new sport I wanted to follow
Almost chose Brighton, almost chose City- I was verrrry close to city but heard they were the reigning champions and did not wanna pick them
Then one day I caught a game of West ham vs Spurs and Tottenham just had this magical pull to me- I understood the flow of the game and the tactical understanding of our identity
Pochettino instilled it- to a nonfollower like me, I learned about our history, the founding, the ups and downs, the heartbreaks
But i still wouldn’t change it for any other club as insane as they drive me, Levy Out would be our greatest advancement if anything but until the we have to be masochists and support the club and the players for what I hope is the last painful rebuild and stick to a manager and break the cycle of inconsistency
I love being a Spurs fan, it has destroyed my life. We have an underdog flare that makes us hope and pray we can pull off what others have deemed impossible for us and I think the anticipation of something greater has brought us to this club. Do we experience confusion and suffering often? Absolutely. But the joy we feel when we win something with all odds against us is just so immeasurable I just couldn't see myself with another club. It's insanity but I love it. I hope we get a trophy one day because it does suck being made fun of all the time and I hate it.
The biggest difference I would say compared to before is their Goal difference is standing out big now, they surely can't be far away from a run of some sorts, Ange has them playing alot different with their attacking first style, their main weakness is obviously against the lower quality sides and leaving open gaping holes for the counter attack and really it's the only thing they need to solve to transform the team at this point.
It's very similar to early Kloop at Liverpool I would say.
Dr Tottenham at your service as a spurs fan I am crying with laughter spurs at there finest
4:16 They were the first team I picked in Fifa 17 and WON! Kane was so deadly man, but him leaving ain't gonna sway me
We have a problem of consistency and we keep turning off for no reason
my dad was born in the almost center of england (chesterfield a 20 min drive south of Sheffield ) growing up in the late 80s early 90s there was united and liverpool dominating for a long time. My dad in all his wisdom chose to put the rest of his bloodline in purgatory. he loved to watch gazza as a kid and names him the reason he and in extension i support spurs. (we still follow chesterfield and go to games, support your local) We can beat anyone but we can and will loose to everyone. its been better to watch anges style than jose or conte but sometimes it feels like watching england in the euros. passing around the box with little direction, putting a risky ball though to no one and being on the counter. Theres been quite a few injuries this year (were playing a welsh full back and a 22 year old Romanian as the centre backs)
Its not that deep pal. It's called sport and circumstances.. you edgy little boy
Truly been a spurs fan since the porch arrival it introduced me to a new style of ball and the likes of A young Kane son eriksen solid first team and great matches even though they didn’t all end it W it was amazing and shout to that 19 CL season and being consistent on giving youth players a chance, and having brought in good prospects and good mid table players I feel the team is too comfortable with that and at times it does frustrate us but I feel we are just a winger away someone like a mbuembo from brentford
Ange is the right man to sort Spurs out. His mentality IS different. Ange is not “Spursy”. Give him the time he needs to change the clubs mentality. What other managers who would be available in the next 12 months could do this? It would be a very small list imo.
As a spurs fan, i really do feel like were a killer away from winning a trophy that means something
I started supporting Spurs in the early 70s when I was a kid, because all the other kids where I live supported Liverpool or United.Btw I saw them win 3 cups within my first 4 years travelling with them.COYS.
Leaving aside Newcastle and the gooners, which were two games they didn't really deserve to lose, and you may notice a pattern in the other 3 defeats they've had this season.
They all came after Europa League games on the Thursday night, whereas 5 of their 6 of their wins didn't, the exception being a 0-3 win at Man U, who are also playing in the Europa.
So Spurs play Roma this Thursday night, followed by Fulham on Sunday. Lets see if they struggle to overcome a team who just got battered by Wolves at home.
Spurs fans support spurs not because of titles, but because of family ties or usually location, both are my reasons. In terms of fans, i think we're the most hungry in terms of titles but also one of the most genuine football clubs for fans, no glory hunter will support spurs unless you were born in the 60's, 70's or 80's. Every top 6 side bar spurs bought their titles. We have never spent money like we are now, and even then, the money we have spent under ange, 50-60% of the players are prospects and depth. I think the timer is ticking down, i think the trophy drought will end sooner rather than later, may not even be this season, but it feels like we are going in the right direction.
I'm a Spurs fan, O started supporting Barca 2016 and Spurs 2017, I honestly fell for the style of play. Being a Spurs fan is hard you live with "what ifs" Right now the big what if is :( What if we held on v Brighton, Leicester and just beat Palace and Ipswich like a normal big team.
Watching our games What I've seen is that the way to beat Tottenham Hotspur is to sit back park an air bus and wait for an opening and hurt them, like Arsenal and many more.
Tottenham is the death or glory team. As a fan you are always on edge. Spurs are always worth a watch. Everyone always has some comment about them. They are not boring.
Australian spurs fan. ITS A RIDE BABY. When we got Ange, it was like ya dad becoming coach, you just hope it works and it makes you feel ill with hope! Cmon Spuds!!
This exact stretch of games has made me tap out of club football almost completely. I can’t stand the inconsistency. How can I expect Spurs to rise to the occasion and win a trophy when they can’t beat Ipswich at home? Last year I felt amazing after the Villa game, then felt like garbage when they lost to Fulham. The Brighton away game that was embarrassing, Ange is in his second season and the new Brighton manager is in his first year with the club, that advantage should have been felt. Palace away and Ipswich at home were so infuriating. If they make it to a final, I will watch otherwise I’m staying out of it.
Win against good clubs, lose against bad clubs? Sounds like a regular Fifa Career mode.
Timo is not too bad, he just can’t finnish but he is still what you expect from a playmaking winger, good at passing and that’s the good thing about him, we just need a big leader in the squad
Spurs just do spurs things thinking back to one of their best seasons 94/95 they had Klinsmann and Sheringham up front ffs and still won fek all! Nothing has changed in 30 years....😂
94/95 one of our best seasons? If we finished 7th and lost in the cup semis this season fans will be calling for Ange's head
We’re so up and down but I’m here for the ride I pray we actually win something this year. Great Vid mate portrayed how most of us spurs fans feel 😂
Not having this narrative, it just shows that no game in the premier league is guaranteed points, just people creating a narrative to cope with the fact that they assumed that these results couldnt happen and therefore they were wrong.
Spurs fan here, and while you did get some of the problems at the club, you missed out on some big points. Problem 1: we signed loads of young players. Although these lads will probably win trophies in the next few years(whether its with us or someone else), right now the wonderkids that weve signed are struggling to make a noticeable impact on our results. The one player that weve signed that isnt a wonderkid, dominic solanke, is having a huge impact right now which shows how much we still need to do in the transfer market. Which brings me to the second problem: lack of leadership. As much as i love sonny, he isnt a leader. Hugo lloris, harry kane, even hojbjerg, are leaders, but nobody in our squad has that kind of leadership mentality where they feel the obligation to set the bar high every game, no matter the opposition or the form theyre in. It has a huge impact that you can see in games like ipswich where nobody seemed to want to win.
Once we do fix these problems though im willing to bet my life savings ange will end our trophy drought.
Ange gave me one of his ham sandwiches once while I was sitting next to the dug-out at Tannadice. Top Aussie bloke.
Spurs are the most unpredictable club I've ever seen😂💀
It’s so weird, how do these guys not win anything they beat the top 6 all the time but fail to win even a league cup smdh 🤦♂️
@@Footb_All111Chelsea, the emirates and Anfield are still our cursed places. We’re comfortable at the etihad and old trafford
As a Spurs supporter, I think it has to be so boring supporting a club that always wins.
Yes It blows watching an unrecognizable team lose to Ipswich, but every time they come back to tie or win in the final minutes of a match (like, all the time) then it makes it worth the heart palpitations. It’s that explosion of emotion and unpredictability that makes this game so entertaining imo. I’d almost rather watch a game on the edge of my seat waiting for a comeback than one where they dominate.
Unless of course, it’s City 😏
Im a spurs fan for the sheer chaos it creates and how it has boosted my mental aptitude
It’s not that confusing. Styles make fights. They counter City’s possession style, but are bad against Chelsea, and then teams that play low blocks.
Their way of playing football doesn’t work against most defensively sound teams that don’t play forward as much and rely on counters.
I support Spurs because they are my local club. The game of football started before the Premier League. Successes are cyclical for instance when Spurs won the double, Liverpool were recovering from relegation. Spurs were robbed in the European Cup against Benfica. That squad should have won the cup that season. John White being killed on the golf course in 64 effectively ended their dominance in that era. I do believe they would have won the trophy in 65. Spurs were a big reason why British clubs became more confident in European Cup Competitions against horrendously biased refs. This was caused by the fact that British clubs didn't take the European Cup seriously in the earlier days with clubs sometimes electing not to compete. It makes the achievements of Spurs Manchester and Liverpool over the next 15 years so remarkable. Remember too that Graham Souness was a youth player at Spurs at the time wasn't good enough to get into the squad ...No way he could replace Dave McKay but what he learned there was invaluable for his future career.
Spurs are my club and I have watched football for the best part of 60 years. I resent the tags we get by hack pundits who's appreciations of the game are based on post Premier League narratives. The game now needs to change its name to Moneyball because it has lost its soul a bit like my club. Spurs were the first football Plc and Keith Burkenshaw said 40years ago "there used to be a Football Club here"...he was right.
i love spurs just because of the pure chaos too be honest. the banter was always expected
It’s a mentality thing. If you actually watch our games you would realise the players legit dont take games we play against “lower” teams seriously. They play lacklustre and space out cos they think we’re 1) up or 2) just think we will win cos we have more talented players.
Don’t agree with the point about Brennan and Dom Solanke. Cherries played very modern football in which Dom excelled, proving to be pressing and goal scoring machine, he plays great for Tottenham. As for Brennan - Ange likes to use fast wingers that do the low cross or arrive late to the box and finish. Johnson is exactly this type of player. The whole point is lazy to be honest.
Look at Klopp’s Liverpool, they’ve bought Mane and Van Dijk from Southampton, Robbo from relegated Hull and Salah from mediocre Roma. All of those became the best in their positions.
I’m a spurs fan because my grandparents used to own a shop on white hart lane and they were the first team I ever saw play football
Never a dull moment supporting Spurs.
Imo- all football clubs are on a roller coaster. But Tottenham Hotspur is like the scariest ride at the theme park (which is consistently where you find the longest queues to get on board). So Tottenham fans might just be a big bunch of thrill seekers.

Being a spurs fan is one of the few things in my life that reminds me I still have emotions.
I am a spurs fan because I have followed Ange and his second season wonder patterns. We won't win the league this year but he's excellent at rebuilding teams.
With some more investment and 3 or 4 more quality players, the inconsistency would improve. The problem is that Levy is too risk averse
considering levy hasnt had a penny off joe lewis to buy footballers in 24 years i think levy has done a fantastic job.
Lilywhite that’s why mate
But spurs aren’t a counter-attacking team anymore. They are a high-pressing team now, rigid in their methods and won’t budge for anyone or in response to pressure
I've been a Spurs fan since 1993. I got used to this.
Maybe they can win a trophy this year if they don't do a spurs
for my eye, there's two major things Spurs need
1. depth, I'm Australian, I know what Ange is like from his time with our NT, and you need players to rotate through, they will get tired, they will need time, especially over an entire season, it's exhausting, their depth rn, let's be real, is shit, they have a first 11 that could win the league, it's that strong
but unlike the teams that do win the league, that's where it stops, how many players from their next 8 could win a league? cause if the answer is less than 5, they won't, and that answer is what? 1, 2 if we're generous, so a few injuries, especially to key areas in the spine, as shown especially with VDV, they're in trouble, and it's not a unique to Spurs issues, it happened to Arsenal when they were building under Arteta, Liverpool under Klopp, Spurs is in that same bracket, a good team, but without the boundless wealth of City, United, Chelsea, so it takes time to build the team, but moreso the depth
but the second issue
2. they don't have that one player who can just go "goal somewhere" and just turn those draws into wins, losses into draws, now don't get me wrong, these players aren't easy to find, they did have one for a long time in Harry Kane, but they just need to find another one, whether they try to find an unearthed talent in their academy, or maybe an even riskier play of trying to pull a young player out the Championship, cause I doubt they'll be able to sign a proven made player like this cause they're the ones with the biggest pricetags, so to try to get one it will be an incredibly risky move if they do, but if it came off it'd work wonders
overall, I don't think Spurs fans need to be worried, but I do understand their frustration, if Ange can even get an EFL Cup this season it'd do wonders to keep morals up in fans, so if we do get to pointier ends of the season, maybe throw everything at the Cups if that's the only way silverware will come, but outside that, I think, like Arsenal with Arteta, just time is needed
Tottenham are basically at the phase of the project where they got to get the talent to get the system to be second nature. Johnson is basically the poster of the process here.
These are the growing pains you go through before you take that next step with a system. Firmly believe they win the EFL Cup and Euro League with how they are progressing.
Became a Spurs fan coz they're good, but unique... and they're underdogs in comparison to the traditional top-4... always striving for success.
Being trophyless sucks, but the journey has been amazing - you learn to be grateful and not a spoilt brat like so many online Madrid or Barca fans (who aren't even from Spain).
Lucas Moura's 90+5 min goal vs. Ajax was the pinnacle of it all. Dreams!!!
2 league titles. 8 fa cups. 4 league cups. 7 fa community shields. 1 european cup. and 2 uefa cups making them the 6th most successful club in england so hardly trophyless.
I support Atleti so i emotionally go through it constantly, but Tottenham us a beast I will never tame. Never ask such people the reason for their support
For me I never really liked football when I was kid but seeing an Asian player sonny, as a half Asian myself I felt such a connection to the game and I picked spurs. But as I got more into football. Spurs is the prime example of a club that’s not a sell out to any oil money and they have no sketchy sponsors. No matter how many hate levy he is a brilliant businessman and I hope he gives more power to Ange now. Ange is a beacon of hope. And I do pray we win something this year. I’m so tired of hearing spurs this spurs that weird taboo jokes over and over again.
It was so wonderful seeing him grow the Asian community. I know there’s been other Asian legends but undeniably sonny bought the community to the next level. Kinda like the Japanese baseball player. Just shows there is exceptional talent in the Asian community.
VIZEH IS MY HERO
When people talk about us being spursy they often forget about dicking the top teams, that's part of it too.
"..City away 4-0.." still hard to believe
why are you a spurs fan? what type of question is that. A fan is fan because they love the club . They are fan not a glory chaser. You are a Burnley fan for Christ sake.
The heart wants what it wants my dear . Not because of trophies and achievements ...
But they give something that reflects your real life, you can't always win . Sometimes , take that as a lesson and prepare for next
Lets just say Tottenham is the Robin Hood of the PL right now😂😂 Taking points from the big rich clubs and give them to the poor smaller clubs…that’s major charity work
6th generation Spurs supporter, we started before 1901. Remember the 60s side. Jewish. Love their appreciation of flair and intense characters. We will win....everything. Again.
Best night ever when I was in manny watching the match in the pub and one guy had to audacity to stand up “what do you think of spurs” while 2 nill down😂😂
