The Tottenham Way

Dan and Tom are not in the studio this week, so apologies for the scratchy sound, but the content is still fire emoji as ever. They discuss the weekend dismantling of Millwall, which despite the high scoring always contained a tinge of frustration with Harry Kane's early injury. We all know how bad this will be, but just what can we expect from the inevitable few weeks that our talisman is out? Will Son step up, or will Janssen's goal pave the way for a few starts for him? Or maybe Alli can provide all the goal-scoring that we need? We also discuss the FA Cup semi final draw, and who we want vs who will want us. We move onto Southampton, with the visitors having not much to play for apart from fancying a decent scalp. Can we survive without Kane and Rose? And, crucially, who would Tom take from the Southampton team, because we know you're all wondering? Finally, would you wear an Arsenal shirt for charity? COYS

Tom welcomes Dan back from his holiday in Thailand to discuss a record breaking ninth-straight home win for our impressive Spurs. The 3-4-3 has made a comeback recently despite the absence of Danny Rose, and with results like this, was Pochettino perhaps a bit too hasty in binning it off when the injuries piled up? We move onto Kane, the statistical miracle. The numbers don't lie, but we discuss how much more he us, the intangible qualities he brings to us every single game. Will he break records for us? And just how much longer will he not be rated by all corners? We then talk about our remaining fixtures, stopping short of full-blown predictions, but point towards the key periods in our bid to finish as strongly as possible. The home records is also discussed, with Dan considering it now a point of honour and pride for Poch to end the last season at White Hart Lane unbeaten. We also pick over Millwall a bit, and do some listener questions to finish. Who, right now, out of Arsenal and Spurs is the more attractive club for an incoming manager? Spoiler: it's us. COYS.

There's no Dan this week, but we have two podcast stalwarts in his place in Jack 'TehTrunk' Hussey from Rule the Roost and Oly Lister from behind the bike sheds. We start with the disappointing exit from Europe and the role Dele Alli's read card played in our downfall. How do we feel about that 'edge' to Alli's game? Was that the only reason for our European failure? And what do we do about our issues at Wembley? We move onto Stoke, and the glorious dismantlement of Mark Hughes' jobbers. We discuss the formation without Rose, but really the big talk is about Kane once again. He's the best, and we love him, and we hope this comes across. We close with some reasons to be cheerful.

Just Dan and Tom again this week in an El Classico podcast. We get stuck into Gent and the (lack of) reaction to losing at Anfield, and why a sluggish Tottenham need to snap out of their European slumber. A strong team suggests Poch might start taking the competition seriously, but what went wrong in Belgium? What would be do in the second leg, with a return to Wembley proving another hurdle for a stuttering team. Speaking of which, the FA Cup win over Fulham moves us closer to a potential Wembley semi final, with Millwall standing in the way. Did the line up and performance give us hope that we could go all the way? What now for the fringe players who didn't get a look in against lesser opposition? Do these favourable home draws pave the way to glory, and where does the rapidly improving Harry Winks fit into all this? All this ,plus: could you handle a possible FA Cup final against Arsenal, in what could possibly be Arsene Wenger's last ever game as boss of the scum? Time to make Wembley home. COYS.

The studio is out of action this week so the podcast retreats to Dan's new bedroom for a sobering discussion post-Liverpool. The guys are joined by Alex Brown, who first gives us an idea of what a Talksport show looks like between the hours of 1am and 6am. Is Alex the Alan Partridge of football radio? We move on to Anfield, and a disastrous first half from which we never recovered, with Ben Davies in particular getting a torrid time. Our record is terrible away against the top 6, so we look at why this is and what we can do to arrest the record. Is it purely back luck with injuries this season? Where does responsibility lie within the club? We also ask if the title is truly done, and whether this might feed into the way we approach an important week in the cups. With three games over two competitions coming up, what sort of teams can we expect? Will Poch see these competitions as an opportunity to end a slightly stuttering season with glory? We preview Gent and Fulham with this in mind, and also raise some listener questions about Lloris. Time to dig in. COYS.

It's an El Classico pod this week, with Dan and Tom sailing alone. We start with a chat about Kane, whom Dan met for an ESPN interview, on his growing maturity and status as a Spurs spokesperson. We move on to Boro, who provided stern but meek opposition at the weekend. How did we cope without Rose? Is White Hart Lane a more patient crowd now? Does a win prove any title credentials? We then look ahead to Liverpool at Anfield in the evening kick off on Saturday, and wonder if their terrible form in 2017 can be a springboard for us to achieve our first win away from home against the top 6 this season. What should we expect from Klopp's team? Is this a good time to be playing them? We then do some listener questions, including a classic Dan KillyP story that makes Tom cry. Enjoy. COYS.

This week, Dan and Tom are joined by pod regular Oly Lister to discuss a weird week at Spurs. We start with the Cup win against Wycombe, a game that made Dan think a few at Spurs are on borrowed time. Where does that performance, coupled with our progress in the cups, leave some of the fringe squad? We discuss the future of Nkoudou, Vorm, Trippier, Davies, Janssen, Son and Wimmer, but most notably young Josh Onomah. We move on to Sunderland and an insipid and stunted performance. What could we have done differently, and was it just one of those games? Is the biggest problem not the first team, but our inability to change things from the bench? What the hell are we going to do without Danny Rose? We move onto the transfer windows past and present and take a trip down memory lane with Alli, van der Vaart and Crouchie. Be warned, we got a bit drunk and sloppy, perhaps in honour of our last two performances. Enjoy the meandering. COYS.

This week, Dan and Tom are joined by Ben Pearce, Sports editor and Spurs reporter for the Ham & High newspaper and at the heart of all things Spurs for the best part of a decade. He tells us about early days of Mason, Kane and other youngsters, and his years covering the club under various managers, from Ramos to Pochettino. The guys pick over the weekend half-smash & half-grab at Man City, where we were dominated but defiant. How on earth did we dig ourselves out of that hole, and what does it say about us as title contenders? We look at the issue in defence where Vertonghen was badly missed, and the incredible contribution of Victor Wanyama. We look at the performances of Harry Kane in the 'big' games, and why criticism is unfair, as well as the virtues of having a player like Son on the bench. We then look forward to Wycombe in the FA Cup and ask what Pochettino could have done for a player like Huddlestone. This episode goes out to Ryan Mason, an ex-Spur who was badly injured at the weekend playing for Hull. One of our own. COYS.

Dan is ever so ill this week, so Tom is joined by pod regular and Goal.com journalist Harry Sherlock and debutant Alex (@biscuitbeck) to discuss the weekend dismantling of West Brom. But first, we pick apart another hilarious week at West Ham. Do we underestimate Levy as a chairman, considering how things could be with absolute imbeciles in charge? We discuss the glory to be found in breaking the West Brom hoodoo, including the roles of Kane, Alli, Eriksen and our brilliant defence. Is creating this system for our players the best thing to happen to Spurs in years? Would we continue using it even without Vertonghen, especially with City on the horizon? Where does this leave the likes of Lamela, Sissoko and Son? All of this plus an optimistic Man City preview, including the rivalry since 2009 and how our record stands up against them and the other title challengers. Listener questions to finish as usual, including who we couldn't exist without, whether Pochettino can match the Bill Nick dynasty, and why we love Tottenham. COYS.

Dan and Tom are joined by Jim (@stylishriot) for a chat about the FA Cup win against Aston Villa which sees us face Wycombe in the next round. Are easy home draws the only way Poch will take it seriously, and when does he have to accept that we have a chance of winning it and start playing the first team? We talk youngsters, with Winks and Carter-Vickers putting in promising performances, but there are serious concerns about Vincent Janssen. What does he need to do to turn this round? We move on to West Brom, with Tony Pulis rolling back into town with a view to spoiling another party. Will the Baggies hold us again, or are we hitting form just at the right time? Do we stick with 3-4-3? All this plus chats about cups, transfers, Jermaine Jenas and United's derisory £50m interest in Danny Rose and Kyle Walker. Double it and you're still nowhere near, Jose. COYS.
