🚨🎙️ #thfc legend Glen Hoddle has BERATED Spurs “Captain” Cristian Romero, after he has been pictured in Argentina this week! 🤬
“It sums his selfishness up. He can't be a captain and act like that. If it was for his family or something like that then fine but if this is true that he's going back to watch a football match, then let him stay in Argentina and get as much money for him as possible.
“When I think back to the captains I played for and the great captains who went before me, the pride that you have in being captain of Tottenham. Wow. It's absolutely scandalous.
“It sums up his character. He's saying let's all pull together. Ha. He's just shown his true colours. Incredible decision. Call himself a captain?!”
As we sit 90 minutes away from relegation, be grateful that we at least weren’t silly enough to make any stress purchases in January.
That would have been utter negligence.
🚨🎙️Gareth Bale on the Spurs vs Chelsea penalty controversy, explains the laws with regards under IFAB:
“If you slow it down frame by frame, there’s no world in football where that isn’t a penalty. You can’t grab a defender like that inside the box, regardless of whether the ball is technically ‘in play’ for half a second or not.”
Marc Cucurella was seen pulling down Micky van de Ven during a Tottenham corner, a moment that sparked immediate controversy after the referee awarded a yellow card for the foul but did not give a penalty, instead ordering a retake of the corner.
“The laws are clear under IFAB. If a holding offence like that happens inside the penalty area once the ball is in play, it’s a penalty, simple. You can’t punish the foul with a yellow card and then ignore the consequence of it.”
“That’s what confuses people. You’ve already judged it as a foul worthy of a card… so where is the penalty? That’s the inconsistency fans can’t accept.”
“That’s where football loses people. They hide behind ‘ball not in play’ arguments, but in reality, the attacking movement has already started. Defenders know exactly what they’re doing in that moment.”
“If that happens in the middle of the pitch, it’s a foul every time. But because it’s in the box, suddenly we’re rewriting when a foul counts. That’s why Spurs fans feel robbed and honestly, I understand them.”
“we need players with personality & character… otherwise they don’t play with me” — Roberto De Zerbi
what did Mourinho say?
“the teams of good guys, they never win ….. so be a cunt”
🚨Roberto De Zerbi says everyone at Tottenham Hotspur’s board ‘MUST BE ON THE SAME PAGE’ if he is to stay next season - irrespective of relegation:
🗣️"The problem is not the league. The problem is to keep the relationship with the board and to have the same ideas in the project."
