@CaL__THFC @alitweedale @AllyPallyKieran I'd like to get actual stats on us winning corners after a long throw. It's certainly not something I have felt is true

@alitweedale @AllyPallyKieran Tottenham have won so many corners from them, and we’re elite at scoring from corners this season. I don’t want us to be that sort of team, but there are far more pros than cons, otherwise the professionals wouldn’t persist with it.
English
Tottenham have chucked in 74 long throws in PL games this season, and haven't scored a single goal from any of them.
Are long throws more trouble than they're worth?

@hamptonism @perplexity_ai You have Yahoo data and think you are “head to head”. Shut the absolute fuck up.

@lbondboy1 @SektionUK @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC That 10 listed includes 2 international games so he has been out for 8 Spurs games. The 8 Spurs games includes 1 Champions League game, so injured for 7 not 10 as well as the terrible positional profiling done on him this season. The vast majority of his benching was tactical
English
@borgy1981 @SektionUK @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC So out of 26 games he’s been injured in 10 started 10 and a couple of those bench appearances wasn’t fit to start leaving probably 3/4 bench appearances due to tactical reasons
English
🚨 Tottenham Hotspur rebuffed enquiries from rivals for Lucas Bergvall in January. Chelsea + Aston Villa made contact to check situation while looking to strengthen midfield & amid 20yo’s reduced role but #THFC clear no plan to consider exit @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/70456…
English
@lbondboy1 @SektionUK @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC He really hasn't, got injured recently (~ 3 weeks) but was just warming up the bench for most of the season. His treatment this season has been diabolical

@SektionUK @David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC 10 starts in the league this season says you aren't watching the matches very closely

@checkingoutie @BardiTEI Not just a controversial one but a shit one too. Get this dickhead Frank out of my club
English
@BardiTEI controversial take:
relegation, sell every senior player, hope the board fuck off
id honestly keep frank ahead of these players. they have shown themselves many many times before this season
English
Breathtaking.

Top interview this with Thomas Frank by @MichaelBridge_. TF never makes excuses, never deflects or overly-defends; just head down, stay calm, work hard, keep improving. The long-term at #Tottenham needs that honesty, graft and commitment. It can’t be all on him. #thfc

@jezzajones33 @tommorris32 @sirswampthing SEN were talking about it when Bethell was in his early 70s. No copying on this one
English
Jacob Bethell is the fifth English player ever (and first specialist batter) to score his maiden first-class century in a Test.
Others:
Henry Wood v SA (1892) - WK

@borgy1981 @AlfieJo030181 @vkon1 @GeorgeHilder5 @FA_PGMOL Actually, I stand by it—the IFAB 2025/26 Law 15 requires part of *each* foot on or outside the touchline. No change there. If you have a source saying otherwise, I'd love to see it!
English
@grok @AlfieJo030181 @vkon1 @GeorgeHilder5 @FA_PGMOL Hahaha got grok involved and was still embarrassingly wrong
English
@AlfieJo030181 @vkon1 @GeorgeHilder5 @FA_PGMOL Based on the IFAB Laws of the Game 2025/26, Law 15 requires the thrower to have part of each foot on the touchline or on the ground outside it. vkon1 is correct; the rule hasn't changed to allow only one foot.
English
@simonyemane 4 of our 1st 5 games were over 1xG.
So if your stats are right that means 10 of our last 11 games has been under 1xG
English
v Forest
0.37xG
11th game out of 16 in the premier league where Spurs haven’t been able to even reach 1xG
Simon Yemane@simonyemane
v Newcastle 0.79xG 10th game out of 14 in the premier league where Spurs haven’t been able to even reach 1xG.
English
@filip_fric21013 @LilywhiteLab That's not even close to being correct. Not even in the top 10
English
@LilywhiteLab He only spoke facts and a whole lot of you are rattled 😂 not only 17th, we also hold the record for the least amount of points for a team that wasn’t relegated, in premier league history
English
Yeah I would’ve accepted this apology until he added that last line in
The Spurs Express@TheSpursExpress
🎙️| Thomas Frank: “I want to apologise to the fans. We are very disappointed and unhappy with the performance today. Definitely a lot to work on still. It's worth remembering that we finished 17th last season.”

@James_Schiano Can you get any useful stats from the World Baseball classic? I know he struck out on 50% of his at bats in that tournament. Low sample size obviously.
English
@dcooke1989 Pretty hard to get up to speed when you don't play, he will adapt once given consistent time.
English
@ben_bowman_ And they scored from that chance which means they converted xG to Goal
English
“Generated” bro it was a tap in to an empty net 😂 honestly this narrative that it was some sort of smash and grab today is quite bizarre to me, we had to suffer at times (Leeds haven’t lost at home in a year), but we deserved that win
The xG Philosophy@xGPhilosophy
Leeds generated more xG in this one moment than Tottenham did all game.

The Dodgers have lost a no-hitter in the ninth inning for the second time in three nights

@johneld61671772 @VinceRugari Lol shirt sales will be non existent for a 20 year old CB
English
@VinceRugari Why is it racist?, just a fact the the fan bases are immense in that part of the world and shirt sales will be off the scale. Specify where racism came into it
English
Signing players from Europe and South America is good, but if they’re Asian it’s about shirt sales. Just straight up racist. And that’s before we get to confusing two different countries lol

I wish any one of these football “influencers” would ever stand on their business instead of folding and deleting their posts the moment people call them out.
