It comes to something when playing the side seemingly Sellotaped to the foot of the table becomes a big deal. The reality is that football now exists in an Internet petri-dish and at the other end of the microscope, we have volatile baboons prone to rioting and frequent bouts of hurling unmentionable substances at the lens.
Should the serial winner Mourinho be able to best a side that have only won one game so far all season? Why of course, but in this surreal 202o/21 term, crazy results have kept the bookies smiling. Fellow strugglers West Brom have drawn with Man City and Chelsea; Fulham drew with us and Liverpool.
United are 15/4, Spurs are 3/4, and the draw is 13/5.
I expect Spurs to win and win comfortably. Sheffield United have drawn only twice so far and lost in 15 occasions. It’s little wonder that Steve Bruce was seething after losing at Bramhall Lane last week (although that was a VAR instigated penalty decision).

Would replace with Toby. Who is better in the PL – come on. Schar, Sais, Tarkovski, Mings, Ogbonna and those just from inferior teams. The top teams all have better than Eric.
Think Toby reads the game so well, he has another few years in him. Especially with decent players around him. I just don’t see Dier cutting out the mistakes. He’s gone backwards over the years, sadly. Not one of the top teams would take him in their back four.
Who in the PL would you sign ahead of him out of interest?
not allowing the injured VVD
Dier’s third or fourth name on the team sheet – going nowhere.
The closing credits are starting to roll for Toby, he’s cruising out his final season or so now. I think last time he got injured sort of told Jose to start easing him out, he can’t rely on him long term
Dier I think will be the future for the next couple of seasons at least, maybe Rodon too. Look how mad Jose was when he thought Dier had to come off vs Fulham. Dier’s a main man for Jose and he’s getting better imo
Sanchez I think is gone barring Ledley turning him around somehow
A side in the top 6 or 7 that is
There isn’t a side in the league not thinking the exact same.
Story of the league – its ridiculously open, ridiculously unpredictable.
All about who capitalises now and gets consistent through the closing straight
Makes too many mistakes for me.
A tad harsh me thinks!
Just reading about football and dieticians. Seems fennel tea is popular with the players especially before cup games. Very calming if goes to a fennel tea shootout apparently.
Anywhere but in the first eleven!
Agreed but where does that leave Dier?
So does Toby.
IMO hex deserves an extended run out in the side!
Silly, Stupid and Sad to be honest, that’s what makes it worse.
Looks composed
Impressed by Rodkn’s performance.
He’s been overplayed as usual but he’s just utter quality. Think how good it will be when he gets back to top form! Brilliant.
When you look at Kane’s chances the one he converted was probably the most difficult of the lot!
I know Moura was only a bit player, but he made a Bulls Ring of it when in 2 great positions. The Brazilian Winks.
The Killer is that there are only 4 letters in his name.
Sort out his Contract David!!!
The commentators love-fest is in full effect on yank TV. Haven’t even reviewed our game yet!
Please god puddle & manure draw nil nil.
And we didn’t lose control of the game.
He’s got it. A lot of it. Him&japh are the future and now
We were incredibly wasteful in the final pass , shooting or finish, otherwise it could have been 6 or more, that’s got to improve.
To think we’ve had a bad run and still only 3 points from the top, all those silly leads we’ve given away 🙁
I know what you mean, some of these clubs ‘roll out the red carpet’ for Man City or Utd sometimes and just roll over.
Then again, City only put one past them in this same fixture. Fulham also drew with Liverpool and looked decent against Chelsea until the red card yesterday.
It’s been a season of unexpected results so we can’t always think we’re a special case. Tough league, Sheff Utd are a strong ‘weakest side’ in a division imo
Played José and the boys. Ndom I salute you.
Yes and he was still going full pelt at the end.
How good was Ndombele! And Pierre came though without a booking, a very good afternoons work.
Good to see Tanguy given the full 90 minutes.
Still need a centre back upgrade and retire Davies.
Yes, don’t think it’s Jose’s tactics holding him back from scoring more at the moment – seems to be a bit casual with his finishing.
At least he’s smiling.
Just making the point the WestBroms, Fulhams play out of their skins against us. Poor as Sheffield are they have had a good few chances that better teams won’t miss.
Our conversion rate is one of the highest in the league I think, correct me if I’m wrong
Yes Kane should have bagged himself a hat-trick!
It was ideal time to put him on with 15 to go
😜😅😊
They’ve only lost by 2 clear goals a few times in the league this season?
They don’t get tonked 11-0 every week – gimme strength bringing out their best…one of their heaviest defeats!
Named on the team sheet.
See what happens when you stop becoming an attacking team, woeful in the final 3rd.
He runs around but that’s about all
I worked out Spurs would need to sell 3,700 Bale jerseys a week to pay his wages.
What was moura doing?
Cant see him from here cos he’s in China.
Agree.
HH said hd is injured!
Not giving up Sheff U fair play. I wish we’d stop bringing the best out of these teams.
Has been quite the return…..
He’s putting in a shift to be fair
Bale must be done. I can reach no other conclusion.
1000000000% better than Sanchez but we all knew that.
Pace to burn.
Ndom not off yet and we haavent fallen apart ,hopefully he lasts the 90.
Good to hear,cheers.
Ref could be the assist king we’ve been looking to sign
Best of the back three
Haven’t really been watching rondon as i I’m at work ,how has he faired?
Surprised we not made any changes yet
Swap Bale for Son or Bergy.
Chances ??
Whiskey!
Valium ?
eh?
You did fear the worst at 2-1☹️
Are you on the sherry, DD?
Tanguy’s GOLAZO here https://theboyhotspur.com/video-tanguys-peach-of-a-strike-puts-spurs-2-goals-clear/
Son a little off it today!
Didn’t think we are allowed to attack of leading.. Has anyone told Jose of rule change?
He’s hating this yeah
It appears that offensive play even with a lead has its advantages: Quality goal from N’Dom Belly.
I accept that, but 9 shots in 65 mins is not good enough against a team like this. We have scored almost every time we hit the target. They are looking scared when we attack… Yet we retreat and invite pressure.
We also nearly caught them on the break in that period, could easily have been another goal
Dier missed it lol.
Seems all we need is to shoot on target today.
Yes yes…yours is better 😏
No team in the PL attacks the entire game, c’mon
NdomPELE
Again… We Attack… We score. They looked petrified when we attack, yet tactic seems to be to defend the lead.
Good response.
What a peach!
Special
Davies once again involved in the conceding of a goal. Why is Toby on the bench ffs!
Ndom. Different class
He was just putting it back in the mixer though wasn’t he 😉
Ridiculous goal
So… Jose faultless again?? We seemed better before the half time talk… Again! What is being said?
Er Dier missed it.
Quality
You have just been Tangoed.
Goal of the season contender!
Stop le whinging again ;P
PElE’DOMBELE

I don’t see Maureen urging us forward.
They will bring on Sharp
