    In Wenger's 22 years as manager the club have 3 titles and 7 FA Cups.

    In that time Spurs have won

    it was the lasagne's fault!!!

    They don't serve lasagne anymore, clearly Suzie worked in London and Johannesburg. I don't think lasagnagate cost us anything more than a UCL place and avoiding St Totteringhams day

    "Anything more than?" That's, like, your entire trophy cabinet.

    In our stadium we have a cheese room instead of a trophy room

    I haven't heard. What was the turmoil in the stadium? West Ham fans going off?

    @hooroo na it won't be mate, it's really bad. The fans are extremely angry - couple of them at work and jeeze do they go on.

    The core is that they didn't want to move to the Olympic stadium and they were sweet talked with the idea of becoming a bigger club, bigger spending etc.

    And they haven't done shit other than put prices up and try and fleece the fans out of more money in various ways. So they fans feel they are paying more and getting much less

    They aren't angry with Moyes or even the players (well maybe a little with the players) - it is the club itself and specifically the owners Gold and Sullivan. Any periods they have had of respectable results has only soothed them for a short time.

    The problem with moving to the Olympic stadium is that it isn't a football ground - fans tend to grumble anyway when clubs move from their old grounds but at least they should be moving into a purpose built, modern football ground.

    @kiwipie I think moyes was pretty much so point they are making ...

    After a string of failures, he was viewed to be safe and a little dull, but quite cheap.

    Thst and the selling but not really replacing of Payet ... the board are clearly more about $$$ than anything else ... not necessarily wrong but they seems to have forgotten they are running a football club, not just a business

    At least it is only the fans on the fields and not the armed owners ....

    From the Guardian

    And yes on Moyes - they don't blame him for their predicament but do blame the owners for appointing him (noting that West Ham's good form in his early days appeared to have rehabiliated him after the Sunderland debacle)

    cheers to Spurs for pretty much guaranteeing Liverpool top 4.

    The table this year seems a very accurate reflection of the state of the teams. City a mile in front. Man U, Spurs, and Liverpool all pretty close, but in the right order, and a fair way behind the leaders. A gap to Chelsea, and then to Arsenal, with their managerial "issues"

    Then the rest all being differing levels of shit, meaning Leicester in 8th are as close to 19th as 4th.

    West Brom are gone. But everyone from 19th -12th could easily go with them.

    City winning the league at Man U this weekend would be pretty cool.

    That would be sweet. I still remember watching Sylvain Wiltord's goal doing the same for Arsenal in 2001-02 EPL.

    Mou will be parking the bus and anything else he can find.

    Nice to finally win at the Bridge. 27 years is a long time!

    Spurs vs Chelsea was a fantastic game. Both sides had loads of opportunities in the first hour, but once Alli got the 2 in 4 mins, tactics changed and it sort of petered our.

    Eriksens strike was amazing. look at how far above the crossbar it was about 5 metres out from goal. Incredible strike.

    I expect Conte to go soon, but I hope not. Been a funny old year so far. Mourinhos golden touch seems to have left him as wel. This weekends game should be an invigorating watch.

    Forget about this weekend. How about the Champions League QF on Thu (NZT) - Liverpool vs Man City?
