Where Have All The Good Vibes Gone

The category of this blog entry is CRUSHING because it’s about Tottenham whom I usually crush on (like have a crush). And yet, it’s also apt for the current feeling of crushing defeat. So I thought the category was still pretty damn apt.

Bottom of the Top. Out of the Top 4 — which means out of Champions League and barely hanging on to Top 5. I knew the post Pochettino years would be brutal but I didn’t realise how hard it would be. Watching the team struggle week on week, with another interim manager — a leftover from the Conte era — is still hard to watch.

Between the manager meltdown, the replacement manager, the injuries and the fact that Kane and Lloris could walk at the end of the season, it really feels like something drastic needs to happen for things to get better. I was talking to Toby and Acid (on our pod, shameless plug), and though it seems bleak, there are still positives to get at.

Like the fact taht we’re even in fifth place despite how poorly things have been going. It’s not the first time we’ve lost a bunch of games, but the atmosphere is just pretty bad. It doesn’t help that the fans are being obnoxious (booing players) and ENIC is being weird with the search for the new manager, I don’t know how we’re going to stay at fifth. A part of me is hoping for a total meltdown just so that people wake the fuck up that things are not great.

It feels so incredibly different from the Tottenham of 4 years ago (just a mere four years) wherein it was all happy and good vibes (and it wasn’t like we were far from where we are now). I get that it’s dog years at the club but I’m really hoping for a turnaround. This season has not been our best but I’m hoping the last 7 games have a change in atmosphere. I don’t even expect wins. I just want the good vibes back.
