  • The way to get rid of it is to become, well, less Spursy.

    Points lost from winning position season to date:

    20th) Tottenham – 16 points dropped
    14 leads, 8 wins, 2 draws, 4 defeats

    Look at that number of leads! Fourteen. Nobody can match that. They’ve led in every single game this season except the 2-2 draw at Arsenal, which was still quite a silly game anyway. Most recently, of course, they’ve taken to going 1-0 up early in games and then bringing on all manner of self-inflicted misery to lose, a run they obviously snapped by salvaging a ludicrous 3-3 draw at Man City. Because, again: Spurs. And then they restarted it seamlessly at home to West Ham. Because, again: Spurs.

    Happy to let you know which team hasn't lost a point from a winning position this season if you are interested. (10 leads, 10 wins, 0 draws, 0 defeats)

  • Right and yet the term was born long before this season, were they the leaders in dropping points last season too? Certainly not. My point is that it's a tiresome term. Being Spursy is what every single team does in some respect...Arsenal last season for one.
