I've said it all season, there is a steeliness to this Spurs side, they won't crumble. Arsenal are the ones under the most pressure and have shown in the past they are well capable of choking.

Whereas Tottenham have been there and done that, coolly holding their nerve when ten points clear of Arsenal in February 2012, and even more assuredly, seven points clear but with just ten games to go in March 2013. They won't crumble. They never do.

Different team and manager since then though Smat, you have the same manager and a some of the same players that have fallen short in the past. Someone will crumble, I don't think it will be Leicester or Spurs, but it could be Arsenal.

Ahhhh okayyy. You'd better hope Spurs don't field Walker, Vertonghen, Lamela, Eriksen, Rose, Dembele, Kane or Chadli in any of their remaining high-pressure games then because they will choke if so!!

The very thought of a Liverpool fan even trying to pick on Arsenal for choking is absolutey hilarious.

I think he is referring to this, mate...

I couldn't source the original footage so I had to go for that subtly edited version, I'm afraid.

Yep he probably was but it wasn't a choke though we you look at the big picture of the second half of that season. The reason they never won that year was due to the defense all season not what happened in that match.

It was the single biggest choke in Premier League history.

You are grossly wrong, but you keep believing that, and we'll see what happens at the end of this season when Wenger has guaranteed his 4th place trophy. ;)

Nah, it's cos Stevie Me fell over. Love how he decides it's not in the public's interest to see that cockwomble Suarez ball his beady little eyes out. Fantastic end to the season that was.


Are there any corners left to turn? I feel like you've done the lot at this point.

yep, i remember those chokes. though i'm surprised you do, given the inhuman alcohol consumption :whistle: but the fact is you were 1/10 on to win the title, somehow lost a game to a team that wasn't even trying to score, then gave up 3 goals in 10 minutes to the sheer brilliance of... erm... dwight gayle and company?!? i'm pretty sure that's classed as choking mate.

and we both know you "accidentally closed the window" on your final table prediction because newcastle weren't in the bottom 3. you're not fooling anyone soft lad :told:

This post is undiluted greatness.

Just give up, Saltire. You are dealing with a master.

Whats the current score with you lot and Midgey-land? ;)

It's 1-1 after 50 minutes but I'm not quite sure what that has to do with you being shown up as a fool by GB or one of the teams you support choking harder than you did on a piece of haggis when Djokovic bested Murray once again.

On here more than watching the match, says it all mate. :ds:

Absolutely - similarly, it puzzles me how you can watch every second of our season when you don't even support United!

Why torture yourself so unnecessarily?

Was flicking through the Spurs and Dortmund games and saw the scores come up. Didn't see a second of it - wish I did. :D
