Don't count on a good pre-season

With the likes of the current Champions League holders, Barcelona and Scottish giants, Celtic on our horizon, I do hope that we get modest results against them.

Can you imagine what it will do to our hopes if we thrash Barcelona and Celtic in the Wembley Cup?

All this "we're good enough for the top 4" nonsense really should stop. The truth is that we're nowhere near good enough. Even if Harry does strengthen us with "one or two players".

Let's get behind the side and hope that we can get ahead of the likes of Everton, City and Villa.

Finishing 5th this season will be the hardest feat yet. Let's just hope we're there or thereabouts.

  1. "The truth is that we're nowhere near good enough."

    Please do not use self-defeating circular logic.

    Your line of thinking will always lead to losing, whereas the complete opposite will lead to winning.
  2. I have to say i wouldnt mind getting a loss pre season because as i recall we were undefeated last pre season (including spanking Roma) and the season before that we had a brilliant pre season. (as did Darren Bent)

    Then the league campaign starts and we are still with our head in the clouds and show nothing of the form we were in pre-season (as did Darren Bent) hopefully we can pick up a few things from when we play Barcelona
  3. Just how is it".... self defeating" to discuss reality?
    You will not make the top 6, far less the top four and to express that opinion is ".... self defeating"?
    As if somehow, there is a relationship between the expression of an opinion today and the results on the field months from now.
    Now that is circular logic.
  4. Couldn't agree more with this post - I hope we lose every pre-season friendly, get the press and so-called experts and pundits off our case and start the season brilliantly, the exact opposite of how we normally do it at Spurs!

    Are you the Master Of Complicated Wording At The Unversity Of Difficultly Wording by any chance?

    Nice piece as usual on here.

    Perhaps 'Anon' you might giving it some thought next time before u get orl convoluted on our wordsmithing ass, n*gger.

  7. I'll be happy that we collectively "get it together" this off-season.

    I'd take a solid start to the season over a stellar pre-season any day.
