Two-faced Spurs impersonate Jekyll and Hyde - Giller's view

So Spurs send us into the international-break week feeling disappointed, dispirited and disillusioned after yesterday's devastating defeat at Brighton. I have always avoided using the phrase, but this was 'Spursy' in spades.

It was like watching two totally different teams. In the first-half they produced football from the gods, touching standards that we have not seen since the peak-Pochettino days. Brengun Johnson found the net for a sixth successive game, and Maddison's breath-taking goal from a length-of-the-pitch movement started by goalkeeper Vicario was like something out of a classic textbook.......

Brighton v Spurs - 06.10.24

Thanks to Cassim Patel for the picture. There were fireworks before and during the game!

Spurs came into this game on a run of good form having won five consecutive games, two in the Premier League and three cup games. Brighton had a less than impressive performance at Stamford Bridge last weekend conceding four goals to Cole Palmer in the first half. They hadn't won any of their last four league matches.

Recent form suggested that this was an opportunity for Spurs. A win here would lift them into the group challenging for Champions League places. The first half gave grounds for optimism. Spurs dominated the half and went in two goals ahead.

The second half was another story. Spurs conceded within three minutes and a display of defensive ineptitude meant that Brighton had secured the points midway through the half. With 10 points from seven league matches Spurs are firmly anchored in mid-table. It is the lowest return since the 2008-09 season though much better than the disastrous start that season........

Ferencvaros v Spurs, 03.10.2024

Thanks to Eugene Gasper for this image

The club logo of Ferencvaros .....Although this was not a comfortable win, Spurs could give themselves high fives at the end of the game. This was a fifth successive win, and substitute Brennan Johnson scored in all five of those games. It's just as well he did, because Ferencvaros's Barnabas Varga scored a late goal to make us twitch.

Spurs had never played Ferencvaros competitively and had never played in Hungary, but they became the first English team to beat "The Green Eagles" on their home soil for 55 years.......

Man Utd v Spurs, 29.09.24

Thanks to Eugene Gasper for his picture

23 years ago, on this very day at White Hart Lane Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United side dramatically turned a half-time three-goal deficit into a 5-3 victory. That was a team which included members of "The Class of 92", such as Gary Neville, Nicky Butt, Paul Scholes, and David Beckham. It also included Laurent Blanc, Juan Veron, Andy Cole, and Ruud van Nistelrooy.

Today at Old Trafford, a United team managed by Eric Ten Hag and containing plenty of big names, but no starring performances was humbled by Ange Postecoglou's emerging and progressing team who gave their best performance of the season to date and achieved a result that could be pivotal to the destiny of these two sides........

Spurs v Qarabag, 26.09.24

The club logo of Qarabag FK On a sodden, windswept night when train lines and roads were closed, making travel to the Tottenham Stadium difficult, Qarabag arrived late, and kick-off was delayed until 8.35pm. That left most of the 51,757 (a good turn-out in the circumstances) fans in the ground worried about how or whether they would get home. Within seven minutes of the start, home fans were worried about the result after Radu Dragusin was shown a red card for preventing goal-scoring opportunity when he fouled Juninho.

Despite that major set-back the ten men forgot they were one short and attacked regardless, ultimately winning comfortably. The scoreline does not tell the tale though, as Spurs' passing fell short too often and the visitors often caught us out at the back with a turn of pace when Spurs over-committed in attack.........

Spurs v Brentford, 21.09.24

Despite falling to a 23rd second set-back when Bryan Mbeumo skilfully converted Lewis-Potter's cross from the left, Spurs went all out to get back on terms and succeeded with a positive performance which laid to rest the midweek doldrums (albeit a victory) at Coventry.

Dominic Solanke scored his much-awaited first Spurs goal and Brennan Johnson scored a second goal in consecutive games to be rewarded with the home fans chanting his name in support. We waited till late in the game for a third goal and a much-needed two-goal cushion, but it was a goal worth the wait, superbly executed by James Maddison (his first since March) and expertly crafted by a move from the Spurs half.

With this second league win of the season, Spurs returned to the top half above Manchester United who we play next Sunday.........

Spurs Odyssey Message Board

Spurs Odyssey Message Board

Visit the Spurs Odyssey Message Board

The most epic thread on The Spurs Odyssey message board was one which started in 2010. This provided the history of our new stadium applications (including the thankfully unsuccessful bid for the Olympic Stadium) right up to the present day with images of the completed new stadium. In the early hours of Saturday 20th October, 2018, our stadium thread reached 1,000 pages! There is a genuine community feel about the board, which is moderated.

Every Spurs match is covered with excellent threads, which feature images and stats from previous games. There is so much to enjoy about the message board which also has an off-topic section where non-football matters are discussed.

There is also a great archive of filed material with links to some great Spurs history and goals.

If you would like to become even more involved, then please e-mail me (webmaster@spursodyssey.com) stating your full name, address (Town and Country will suffice!) and desired user name, and I will do the rest.

I look forward to hearing from you!
