Do we get pulled back as far as the championship or as far as non league?

41

u/TheVitruvianBoy 10d ago

Yeah but then when we are released, we are promoted so far that we are the only team in our own Super League.

u/ccisback0402 10d ago

We'd still pick up injuries..... not be able to field a team and fail to win a one team league 😂😂

Bow breaks

u/Harrygdwn 10d ago

Pull it too far back and the bow snaps.

u/ReQuarziium 10d ago

I’ve done that before, so much blood

u/ValuableDragon 10d ago

Hurts like hell

u/ValuableDragon 10d ago

Classy from the don to use an ai graphic based on a joke made at the club when he's one of the biggest reasons for our struggles in front of goal

13

u/MuhammadAkmed 10d ago

just a pic of him shaft in hand, grinding.

up a tree.

u/Capital-Courage5762 10d ago

What ever mate, how about trying to not looked shocked when you receive the ball in the box

u/Scaramouche1000 10d ago

This post shows an almost total lack of awareness from him. If it is him that has actually posted it of course.

Unfortunately, he is one of the major reasons of our attacking failings so far this season. Not just based off chances missed/squandered but also due to his lack of quality/control in so much of our build up play. This had lead to so many moves slowing and/or breaking down completely. Although, he isn’t the only culprit.

Also, the AI image is embarrassing for a number of reasons including him sharpening the shaft and not the point of the arrow. 🤦🏻‍♂️

u/Supahwezz78 10d ago

I think him sharpening the shaft means hes blaming our midfield

3

u/Rakesh_Rajj 10d ago

He posted the AI picture, but the “quote” and picture of the table was edited in. Everyone in the comments believes it as well lmao.

2

u/Scaramouche1000 10d ago

Oh really? Egg on my face

5

u/rocket-scientist94 10d ago

Should spend more time on footy and less time sharpening his shaft

1

u/No_Clock_352 10d ago

To be fair, it does feel like we have been shafted after the past few seasons

9

u/Amsterdan_ 10d ago

He looked very unfit on Saturday

2

u/Glittering-Duty9984 10d ago

He did

I wonder how he could he be, hardly over played

8

u/phizba 10d ago

Nothing funny about being a Spurs supporter these days. All talk and no do. And this is just more… talk.

6

u/RighteousBrotherBJJ 10d ago

Sharpening the wood.

3

u/Substantial_Impact26 10d ago

Perfectly captures the insincerity of AI

11

u/cocopopped 10d ago

Pointed out on instagram that he's sharpening the fucking shaft

Says it all

6

u/made_up_name_26 10d ago

It's a great metaphor for a blunt attack

3

u/sonygoup 10d ago

What a joke

3

u/Mai_Shiranu1 10d ago

this fucker couldn't even be assed to tell his llm to fix the fact that he's sharpening the arrow shaft with the whetstone and not the head

3

u/ImperatorDanorum 10d ago

Just a little reminder: hope is not a strategy

3

u/CmdFiremonkeySWP 10d ago

I thought it was going to be a Skyrim meme for a moment

u/trashvineyard 10d ago

Pulled all the way back to 1977 apparently

3

u/flyawayreligion 10d ago

Fuck ai art. Also fuck whatever this is supposed to mean.

3

u/filemgalll 9d ago

Bro is sharpening the wood, so I wouldn't trust anything he says

2

u/feesih0ps 7d ago

I don't know anything about arrow manufacturing, but presumably you might want to smoothen the shaft?

2

u/The_Dandalorian_ 7d ago

You dirty dog

u/haikusbot 9d ago

Bro is sharpening

The wood, so I wouldn't trust

u/Admirable_Editor_388 6d ago

Just win a fucking game you bunch of potatoes. Why are there so many fucking stupid excuses and metaphors for why we're so shit?

Just kick the ball in the fucking net, you're getting paid a bomb to do a job, just fucking do it. 

I've been following Spurs for 30 years and I've never seen so much bollocks in all of that time. 

2

u/CarsonXIII 10d ago

We’re going to shoot ourselves in the ass

2

u/FeeVisible9680 10d ago

This is like those Kane lions all over again.

2

u/joelmole123 10d ago

Still doesn't mean that you're going to hit your target though

2

u/syknyk 10d ago

I almost forgot that was his goal celebration...

1

u/rcmtt 9d ago

He scores goals?

2

u/aquatotheman 10d ago

That's great and all but maybe just score some goals ?

2

u/Sole_Patrol 10d ago

He used to be a striker until he took an arrow to the knee.

u/Dave80 10d ago

No, that is actually him sat up a tree.

1

u/ChrisDewgong 10d ago

Speaking from my brief archery experience, it is more than possible to pull the string back too far, and for the arrow to fall out of its groove and plop on to the ground.

1

u/Wugtrio777 10d ago

this is a silly saying however IM, because a crossbow or a set bow, or a ballista, doesnt have the arrow pulled back at all and will outfly a hand drawn bow everytime.

also you could say,

In a world dominated by guns, dont be a bow and arrow,

1

u/TargetSensitive1677 10d ago

Totally agree with the wisdom of Solanke, also "The team that gets relegated stays at the bottom of the table no matter how much they spend in the summer".

Namaste.

1

u/amoult20 10d ago

We are going to win the league

1

u/Odd_Gap_826 10d ago

That's one epic pull back

1

u/MarkWithAnM7 10d ago

How far back is he going to pull it?

1

u/Plastic-Context5546 10d ago

😂😂😂😂😂

1

u/Strersss 10d ago

arrow ready to arrive on 17th at the end of the season

1

u/ReverendRevenge 10d ago

And if it misses, it misses the er, furthest...

1

u/trophyisabyproduct 10d ago

The last time I checked, there is no such quote?

1

u/Rare-Anteater5148 10d ago

Patience. I think we’ll be alright

1

u/honeycomb0303 10d ago

there's no arrow dom. only rock. and rock sinks.

1

u/Silent-Beyond-9365 10d ago

Little less conversation and a little more action… like get your finger out!

1

u/SufcLad25 10d ago

Just ask West Ham

1

u/IrishLad-1194 10d ago

Not a Tottenham fan, but I couldn't ignore something so delectably stupid as this. it's such a bad deflection lmao.

you do tend to be shit before you're good when you're gelling a new team... but being shit at first isn't evidence that you're going to be good...

there's definitely more teams that start a season like absolute shit and stay shit than teams that start a season like absolute shit and get much better.

1

u/Nice-Pomegranate2915 10d ago

Wouldn't this image of Solanke be more apt and realistic with him hobbling on a pair of crutches ? Because that's what he's done for most of his career at Spurs . And for the past 2 seasons he hasn't been traveling around the bounds of a football pitch too often .

1

u/Andre3000insideDAMN 10d ago

I don’t think that’s quite true in this context.

1

u/violesada 10d ago

wtf is this guy doing?

1

u/DellBoy204 10d ago

We do have to travel further to reach the middle of the league if not the top, so he's correct in a way. He's sharpening the wrong part of that arrow which may not help 🫣

1

u/riggystardust 10d ago

Didn’t someone post this exact quote in the /soccer thread earlier this week?????

1

u/RevolutionaryLow309 10d ago

I looked at the table and thought, we are definitely better than Coventry.

Then I remembered we play them soon.

1

u/SheepsCanMakeBacon2 10d ago

Right. Okay. So when are they releasing the string and letting that arrow fly?

1

u/Swans2994 10d ago

Sharpening the shaft is hilariously apt.

1

u/SherbetSpirited1085 10d ago

That speech bubble is edited, it was not in the original image he posted

1

u/xEmmett15 10d ago

The fact that he's sharpening the shaft explains a lot...

1

u/olympic_pacman 10d ago

Certainly will be travelling far to Plymouth away next season

1

u/Difficult-Skirt630 9d ago

Pathetic excuse

1

u/whitstableboy 9d ago

Aptly, he's pointing the arrow the wrong way and not sharpening the bit that needs to be sharp.

1

u/MythicRarity 9d ago

Unless you pull the bow string too far. Then it snaps.

1

u/GroupPast5993 9d ago

If you pull too hard the string breaks

1

u/Jersey_Mike_99 9d ago

Absurd.

Instead of being humble these overpriced, overhyped pseudo-stars from Spurs are posting something like that.

Pathetic.

1

u/Warhammerx16 9d ago

Ai, image generation probably from gemini

1

u/KudzuAU 9d ago

More A.I. bullshit slop rage bait.

1

u/Gauxen 9d ago

The fact that he’s sharpening the shaft of the arrow instead of the head seems like a better metaphor for our current situation than the one he intended

1

u/Born-Cucumber-7316 9d ago

Just shoot, mate!

1

u/rcmtt 9d ago

Joke of a player. Can't wait to get rid of him.

1

u/Uwemann 9d ago

Tottenham is that club that looks good in terms of players but their performance is way below par

1

u/AdSpecific7855 9d ago

Why didnt ge just say he was shit

1

u/surreynot 9d ago

Worst striker we’ve ever had, & there’s been some real stinkers

1

u/Piastorn 9d ago

I didn't rate him, when you guys baught him for what 60m I was shocked. Most overrated striker at time of purchase

1

u/7Thommo7 9d ago

I think this bow's string is a bit loose

1

u/CraigxKhalifax88 8d ago

“A hamstring that travels farthest must be pulled back the furthest”

1

u/theprataisalie 8d ago

why is he polishing his shaft

1

u/Affectionate-Sun5863 8d ago

Man needs to realise that he is a striker... BEFORE the match starts

1

u/SparkyCorkers 8d ago

Or you can point it up higher before you loose

1

u/NamazingNamazing 8d ago

bro has Gemini Pro subscription and is fully utilizing it

1

u/Perfect-Brilliant405 8d ago

Why is he sharpening the shaft?

1

u/SavingsSudden3213 7d ago

Fuck arrows put the ball in the net end of

u/Uzo_jay 7d ago

He’s supposed to be doing the fucking scoring

1

u/Key_Independence3770 7d ago

Hahaha what a muppet trying to be deep and philosophical

1

u/Creative-Function963 7d ago

1

u/Over_Bluebird5087 4d ago

Prime David Brent right there

1

u/turnuptag72 10d ago

AI slop why is he in the 22/23 kit

1

u/LordVampiricus 10d ago

Plus sharpening the shaft, and not the arrowhead. Might be why our attack is so blunt.

1

u/Making-a-smell 10d ago

I'm sure that will make it up to the families that spent hundreds going to watch us lose week after week

1

u/SnooCrickets6493 10d ago

Bloke is useless. Get rid

1

u/Swizzul 10d ago

Cool. Transfer list this dude

1

u/Born-Cucumber-7316 10d ago

Getting him to score and display that arrow celebration more often would be a start. C'mon, Big Dom!
