Noisy neighbours no better than last season

“Ange Postecoglou has improved Spurs in a short space of time
“Ange-ball the future”
“Spurs no longer Spursy”

The truth is, Tottenham are no better than last season. Do not believe me?

Taking into account that they have scored one less, conceded one more, do not have European football and were knocked out of the League Cup at the 2nd round stage for the first time since 2005, I would actually say Spurs are in a worse position than they were at the same stage as last season.

Yes, an injury time winner will always be celebrated like mad. Limbs everywhere. Every fan will do it. But the media praise for them needing a last minute own goal to beat a team that played with 9-men for half an hour was a bit OTT.

Meanwhile, we get on with our business quietly.

The Arsenal continued the slow start to the season with a 4-0 win away from home. It was a comfortable run out. We never looked like conceding and, on another day, could have scored 6.

And do you know what, I do not really care that we are being ignored by the media.

After last seasons hype, it will actually be nice for us to go about our business this campaign without the media bluster. It will show that we are back where we belong.

For Arsenal, 17 points from 7 games is not longer considered an exceptional start. For Tottenham it is one of their best starts in their history. And Liverpool, with 16 points, are back to their best under Jurgen Klopp.

Last season it was Arsenal that the media did not stop speaking about. Week in week out being praised on how good we were. The turnaround by Mikel Arteta. But Manchester City quietly kept winning. Kept on our coat tails before accelerating in that final straight.

At the moment, it feels like we are that horse in the Grand National that everyone has forgotten about. We are sitting in the leading pack but the commentator has failed to mention us. We are keeping up with the other front runners and just waiting for our opportunity to hit the front.

The media can hype up Tottenham as they always do whenever they have a half decent start. But we know how that story will end…

If Tottenham being back is a last minute own goal against 9-men at home, the opponents having a fair goal ruled out for offside, one player gets a debatable red and the other sent off due to a yellow given to an opponent tripping himself up, then so beit.

We keep going.

Unbeaten in the league.
Unbeaten in Europe.
Unbeaten in domestic cups.

No other top flight English side can say that. On to Lens…

    A typical gooner I am a season ticket holder at spurs and I actually said to people around me when you played us last season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. You were a very good footballing team. Shame you’re not big enough to say the same thing you’re not Piers Morgan are you?.

    You really don’t get the point here do you!
    It’s not about having same points as last season, the fact is we have had to have a reset regarding every aspect of our club, new coach, removal of dead wood players, change of style & mentally & instilling a new belief so I suggest you put thought into your article or write some pointless drivel about your own club.

    The Kangas are carrying the luck at the minute, everything is going their way. However, in fairness to them, they seem to be playing for each other and have a bit of spirit about them but lets see how they handle one or two setbacks before getting carried away.
    I actually thought they were garbage on Sunday, Liverpool were the better team with 10 men, got cheated and even when they went down to 9 I thought they looked comfortable. I can never cheer a win for that lot but come the end of the season, I reckon that later winner for the Kangas might be seen as a good result for The Arse. We`re different class to Spurs, I sat in a boozer watching the game and after 80 minutes, I turned around and told my pals that I thought Liverpool would go very close to winning the League this season. Thought they were magnificent and a later OG doesn`t change my mind. They`ll be up there next May.
