    We were due a bit of luck and thankfully we got it Today.

    That should stop the shipping from sinking until the next game but villa are a terrible team so let's not start slapping each other on the back juat yet.

    Delighted with Kane. what more can he do.. He has to start ahead of Ade in the next game

    Villa, you's were robbed. Tough shít. Young Kane took control of the free kick, looked a man possessed, even though it was a fluke. The man has balls. Becoming a cult legend. Ade fock off!

    Kane and Soldado would be a great pairing. They would work hard for each other. I'd hate to be playing with Adebayor when he is having an off day.

    And six points off 4th :P not really much in it in either direction.

    Make that 3 points off 4th, we're not playing well but lets not all throw the towel in just yet

    Capoue had a focking mare, Stambouli has got to push for a slot. Defense is a sham. Gotta stick with Kane/Soldado playing the weaker sides.

    Nobody is setting the pace, one team wins one week, and loses next week.

    Vertonghen's tackle (which he somehow got a yellow for) changed the game. It got our players going, riled them and made them fight for it more.

    Guys

    We were so lucky today. From pochetino's lame pre match interview to 75 mins of absolute drivel from us , it was a miracle we got anything

    Vert should 100% have been sent off and mason could have been sent off

    Soldado did ok and Kane is now our best player - to see his desire is so good compared to the other clowns

    I laughed out loud in the first half when the brainless adebayour takes off on a run and the ball comes out of the air and hits him on the heel while he is running- he truly has an IQ of 5

    Make no mistake - we were brutal today. It doesn't hide the problems and we have many more matches to lose this season

    We were dross like we've been all season. Villa wouldn't have lost that game if Benteke didn't have a brain fart. Kane has done enough to start ahead of Adebayor. Capoue needs to pull his socks up. I'd get Dembele or Stambouli in ahead of him at this point.

    Can't disagree more. Great tackle, well timed. It's a physical game and that tackle showed desire and commitment to me, not something I could say about vertonghen for a long while.

    Are you joking ? He went in high with both feet - that's a straight red

    Anyone who watched the replay will see that Verts tackle was a good one,a yellow card for that was ridiculous.just saw it again there now in slow mo,he had one foot on the ground and won the ball with the other foot.

    It was a yellow for me. He was off his feet with studs showing.

    A win is a win but I have had enough of the following players:Kaboul,Capoue,Rose(he may have improved but still can't defend for sh1te),Adebayor and personally I thought Soldado was muck whether he tried hard or not.even against ten men we created nothing.One bright spot is Kane and Mason look like 2 blokes who actually are willing to put themselves through the mill for the jersey

    Decidedly average, uninspiring and the worst spurs squad assembled in the 2000 ' s

    ... take any money we can get for Lamela, Paulinho, Townsend and Ade or Soldado and get in some players who have already proved they can cut it in the EPL

    ade had a one on one chance that was set up by soldado in the first half, he linked up well with lamella swell when he came on… I think that soldado is an easy scape-goat.

    Soldado doesn't get service yet Harry Kane is able to score on a regular basis. So how is Kane scoring regularly if there is no service to the strikers.

    Liverpool and Man United have had a ****e start as well though.

    It was the same this time last year for us. We were getting some results and keeping ourselves in touching distance of top 4. All the while not getting out of first gear.
