The Power of the Bench
Another week, another exciting fixture awaiting Tottenham Hotspur. Its a local derby, a team in the bottom three, a chance to move into the top 4 and the opportunity to condemn our rivals to another week spent in the relegation zone. Yet, on our part, I didn't sense much in the way of enthusiasm before the match. Recent hammerings have sucked some of the fun out of our game and with West Ham coming to town, the first team not just to breach our defence, but beat us outright at our new stadium, the same West Ham that stole a draw here 3-0 down with 10 minutes to play, the negative headlines had begun to write themselves. On our part, I detected only antipathy leading up to the game. That was until 3.30 in the afternoon.

But football fans know better. Especially those who support Tottenham Hotspur; a club who's own brand of defensive haplessness is its own sub-genre of comedy. One keeping visual gags and physical farce well and truly alive in the roaring 2020s.

Leicester - Tottenham is a special fixture. There is some form of a rivalry there. One that started in 2016, with Tottenham's ill-fated title chase and Leicester's infamous title win. Since then, the fixture has produced an inordinate number of goals (62). No doubt you'll remember Kane's haul in the 6-1, Son's cameo in the 6-2, the 5-4 at Wembley, Bale's 4-2 and Bergwijn's miracle last year. Its a match of goals, drama, error and entertainment. 25 minutes into this one and it was clear today would be no different.

Its The History...
Poch did it in 2019 as part of that infamous and dramatic Champions League tie in the Quarter Finals in 2019. Then Jose did it twice 2-0. Even Nuno managed it on his debut. And now Conte's done it. There's nothing quite like a shut-out at home to, what used to be, the best team in England. Its tradition. Its like Spurs going to Stamford Bridge for our annual humbling.
