Not a bad winning goal by my boys today.

Wallop! Have a bit of that.

I wish I could see that from another angle. The control before the shot looks fantastic but it's hard to make out. Goal of the decade contender right there.

I think that is from the BT recording but if a different angle surfaces I'll post it. Looks to me that he hit it before it hit the ground. Very impressive, plus the goalie he managed to put it over is 6 foot 5 inches tall!

Really glad that the season officially concluded at the end of September.

The slow motion replay at the minutes mark shows the control was pretty goo; the ball doesn't touch the ground.

Poch gone!

It's not often a sacking or signing elicits genuine surprise but this one did.

As someone who traditionally hates Tottenham, I'm delighted.

It is a sad one. He did a great job not sure why it went sour.
Only thing I can conclude is that you have to win things. Doesn’t matter if it is FA Cup, League Cup, you can’t just keep qualifying for Champions League at the expense of everything else that is not success.

It's no Pochs fault. Spurs need to change their mentality.

Partly his fault. He never tried to win the minor cups and put all his eggs in one basket.
Mourinho and Spurs? How the hell will that work that is never a fit???
