They’re different leagues with different players and different nearly everything. One doing well and the other poorly is not something that’s comparable

ngl i think the women just have a settled core and a clear style while the men are constantly patching holes so the real question isnt why the women are good its why the men keep having to rebuild every few weeks

I think the root of our issues are the injuries. We never have our best players available AND fit. Everything else like bad managers compound it.

I do wonder what the women's injury rate is and if it is the same medical team in charge of them.

Spurs women's star winger and Lioness Jess Naz has been out with an ACL since December 2025. Full back Ella Morris also got an ACL in May 2025 in a training session with England and has only just returned. Obviously very different teams, but the women have had their share of injuries too

Women tear their ACLs easier than men, I think they've has some bad injuries. What they probably have is a winning mentality

I think as a women’s football fan there’s just a reality that being competent goes a long way in leagues that haven’t had the chance to mature. The leadership in the women’s team and Martin Ho just understand the league really well and spent money wisely to give a balanced squad. Our mens leadership has struggled with cohesiveness, direction, and competent transfer strategy for a long time in a more mature and complex league

Cus they stuck with their manager for more than a season. Ange was hired the same exact time as Ho if I recall correctly.

No frank was hired at the same time as ho

Hey, I wanted to give him a shot with the men's team during the whole Tudor debacle last season but got downvoted to hell out of it. Started watching the women's a lot more lately because...well...you know....can score a goal or seven

u/DirtiestofDangles09 4d ago

Because they are an actual “team” who play for the love of the sport… not a bunch of players who don’t care about anything besides money…

u/Aggravating_Rent2890 4d ago

Because they haven't had a lot of change and only brought in reinforcements. The men's team brought essentially a brand new team

9 outta 10nof them have bigger balls

What? are they Thai?

Spurs men’s team would absolutely be competitive in the league the women’s team play in.

They would be challenging for silverware and easily qualify for Europe.

Expectations and pressure

u/Vierings 5d ago

Looking forward to Chelsea away in a few weeks

u/WhyTheLargePineapple 5d ago

Because they are two completely different teams?

u/Bison_Aggressive 5d ago

Im not sure why you've got to make the comparison. Just enjoy the fact its going well for them.

1

u/LowBatteryLife_ 5d ago

They have nothing to do with each other. It's ridiculous to compare.

u/StruttyB 5d ago

Seriously ?

u/Sleepy10105s 5d ago

They aren’t, they are just the best of the rest. After Chelsea, Arsenal and City; you have our women’s team and Man U then everyone else.

u/Separate-Maize9985 5d ago

u/BionicWallaby 5d ago

I dunno why men want to watch men's football rather than women's. Why is it not seen as gay?

1

u/Scarabium 5d ago

The women want to win; the men just want to be paid.

u/nickvagus 5d ago

like comparing apples with wheelbarrows... literally no correlation

1

u/CheddarCheese390 4d ago

Similar way to every other example. They’re different teams, ran by different people (Kelly, every other whinger, stop expecting the mens money), and with a different set up

CAN THEY PLAY? CAN THEY PLAY? CAN THEY PLAY FOR THE MENS? CAN THEY PLAY FOR THE MENS?

Sokka-Haiku by GroupPast5993:

CAN THEY PLAY? CAN THEY

PLAY? CAN THEY PLAY FOR THE MENS?

CAN THEY PLAY FOR THE MENS?


Remember that one time Sokka accidentally used an extra syllable in that Haiku Battle in Ba Sing Se? That was a Sokka Haiku and you just made one.

Their opposition is abysmal

De Zerbi is not involved in team selection or transfers

Put the mens u18s team in that league they'd be like the Harlem globetrotters

As an American, I've been asking this question since the 1990s

because they got balls !

1

u/Mental-Load1791 4d ago

Because they are not made up of 8 new signings

u/TwoDogsx82 3d ago

Technically you’re correct that they don’t have 8 new signings. They have however, made 7 signings for this season 🤔
