I hate hearing the same old crap....

I just finished watching the Spurs v. Sunderland game, and as a Spurs fan, there are several things I am sick of hearing from the commentators.

Bale was Shutdown
Just because we don't score off of a Bale cross doesn't mean he was shutdown. Tonight, Bale was decent, but I'd argue that he wasn't taking people on because in the Prem, all he does is get kicked when he does that. Nedem Onuoha did not shut him down. He got some good crosses in, but since we gave up early on playing in the center of the park, he didn't have the space to run past them and Sunderland packed the box as soon as he got the ball, so we didn't score that way.

Bentley was from Arsenal
Bentley was at Arsenal at academy level. But he is a Spurs fan, his family are Spurs fans.... We don't care about his weak tie to Arsenal. The reason fans get on his back is because they don't like him because they don't think he's good enough. I am a rare exception, but that's why... not cuz he was a gooner.

Always bringing up Juande Ramos
Please, shut up about Ramos. We're over him, it was two years ago and we're in the Champions League. Don't have anything to say about him.

The only way we get back into the CL is by winning it
We are still right around fourth. Arsenal and City are struggling. Chelsea and United aren't looking great either. We still are in it in the race for fourth again.

Now, this is gonna come off as a bit mad, but why can't we win the Champions League? I don't honestly believe we will, but it's not impossible that we could win it. We beat the European Champions. We can beat Arsenal, Chelsea and City. We are a good team and can beat anyone on our day.

I know we have been a bit disappointing, but we've been Spurs. Consistently inconsistent. Beat a big team, lose to a small one. I honestly hope we can get on a run, but we're not out of either the race for fourth or the Champions League. Stop hating.
