From today's Arseblog, on yesterday's TOT 0 - 2 AVL game:
In this incredible world we live in there are sounds that just feed your soul. Rolling thunder. Songbirds in the jungle. The majestic roar of a big cat. The ocean crashing on the shore. And Sp*rs fans booing their own team in a stadium that’s just way too big for them. Glorious.
Emery is a good manager. He came to us at a bad time, and he was not what we needed. But he's got Aston Villa on a roll. Villa has Emi Martinez (who did not play yesterday and was not needed) and Calum Chambers, two ex-Gunners I always liked. Plus, my wife loves the claret and blue kits worn by the Villans, West Ham, and Burnley (who will be in the Premiership next season). So when they aren't playing us, I root for Villa. Needless to say, I'd root for the flesh-eating aliens of Glormak 7 if they were playing Tottenham. Conte's interview after his team's loss was pathetic. Despite all the money spent on players he wanted, he was saying they needed more, that he was "building a foundation." He had the foundation. Spurs have been very good since before he came. But he seems to have "lost the dressing room" as thy say. They don't believe in his management and he is not getting the best from them. Roman Abramovich would be looking for his replacement now, but of course he's sailing around on a gargantuan yacht somewhere trying to avoid the law.
Spurs had their nearly moment four years ago when they narrowly lost the Champions' League final to Liverpool. Otherwise, they haven't been close to silverware for quite some time. That said, there has been no St Totteringham's Day since 2016, an outrage that I expect to end soon.
