Its not a rivalry. Its a mid table club trying to stay relevant against their bigger, better and more successful geographical neighbour. Arsenal's rivals are the other big clubs

When Tottenham had a decent team a few years back, they won NOTHING, an absolute fat zero, whilst Arsenal, despite being in the football doldrums, managed to win FA Cups. Well hey, the tide has turned, and suddenly Arsenal are emerging as a force again. It's pure jealously from Tottenham fans hence their hatred.

It’s not much a rivalry when Arsenal are light years ahead of Spurs.

The only thing keeping Spurs relevant is them forcing rivalry with Arsenal

The toxicity is all on Spurs’ end. Misery loves company.

"They gave them a game"... are you kidding me... jesus wept, give your head a wobble... watch that game back.. Spurs players pulled out of challenges, walked around, made absolute minimal effort to win that game.. and that first goal... was allowed to come across the 6yrd box... Spurs at the beginning of the season were frighteningly good... we had 2 really hard games against them... Son, who has the best Opta data for scoring one on ones and going around a keeper, shoots early and misses.... the whole thing stinks!!!

Spurs were never Gona win that game .. spurs have fooled everyone in the Media. Lol U honestly think spurs were gona actually try to win that? The player who scored the goal for spurs would have never been forgiven by the fans. The players knew that and done their best to not score when they got in the final 3rd.

Its toxic because Spurs cant accept that they’re a small club

remember when the media push that there had been a power shift in North london because Spurs finished above Arsenal for a few seasons amassing *check notes* 0 trophies

Spuds now need to lose to anyone who can stop Arsenal winning the League starting from next season.

Sounds like it’s time to call in the environmental groups to clean up the toxic mess. Hopefully the government set aside sufficient funds for this particular disaster.

People always bring up that Liverpool beat Blackburn on the last day of that season. However no one is saying Spurs did or should have thrown the game. But when Liverpool scored the winner that day there was stunned silence. It’s the exact same situation. The fans don’t want the rival team to win the title. It’s simple. It’s not toxic it’s football.

What a load of nonsense. What about the 4 losses before that where didn't even try? Wins in those would've made this game pointless for spurs and they could've put kids out

Social media have played a big part with both sets of fans having their say on their planforms, which earn them views and followers and of course money from you tube. Rivalry are for the fans the players who play for both clubs know exactly who their are.

Media are talking like Tottenham have played with their u18's team. If you see the game properly you can see the both teams were competitive. But City is one of the best teams in the world, so of course they would have advantage and end up find a way to beat Spurs.

Funny how all the comments are arsenal fans saying spurs are toxic yet they’re the ones commenting on everything 🤷🏻‍♂️

Flippin 'eck TalkSport is really scraping the barrel with these 2 in the studio. That little chat didnt deliver any original insight or new information at all it just regurgitated what everyone else has been saying for the last few days. Waste of airtime

Liverpool - You lost the league at Goodison Park 📢😀

THANK YOU!!! COMMON SENSE

The most one-sided rivalry 😂 For 90% of our 'rivalry' theres only 1 clear winner ! 😂

Cas going on about Liverpool beating Blackburn in 95'. Why didn't Redknapp celebrate when he scored that winning free kick. Thats worse than the fans opinions

This toxicity is one-sided cause arsenal fans would never put on city's jersey and celebrate against our own team and screaming at them to throw the game...

A very one sided rivalry. Someone needs to let Arsenal know

The spurs fan saying "we stopped Arsenal winning the league" the four points we got off Spurs is part the reason we took it to the last day, Arsenal were hoping City had a bad day, no one thought Spurs could beat even a 50% City team, they just scraped past relegated Burnley ffs.... at home!

It’s one thing wanting your rivals to lose, it’s another thing celebrating your own defeat.

Big Ange knows his players threw that game, he just can't say it publicly as it would damage the hell out of that club.... their fans loved it that they lost

It us what it is , when Arsenals supporters show their feelings about spurs club everyone expect spurs supporters to be spursy, when they stand up to their disregard of the Arsenals rivers of tears and disgust flow even from chelsea fans ,what go's around comes around

It's toxic more from spurs fans than arsenal fan's it's bcoz spurs are the least successful they are desperate for a trophy 😂😂😂

Spurs went for it on final game against United in 99 too which could have handed the title to Arsenal. Don’t think fans acted the same way back then. Maybe shows just how bad the last 25 years have been for them?

The difference is quality ,class , history They are just SPURSY .

Is there a trophy for bragging rights…..? It’s immature and pathetic.

this is all banter . what fans think really doesnt matter. do you think teams want to be relegated ? no , its what the manager and the players do. fans, will always be fans , win or lose.

I love how many of these pundits talking moral this , moral that , it’s the right thing to do , when if you go to a lot of these games the police have to escort supporters to opposite ends so they they don’t beat each other to death half the time ! Like really ….. we gonna make a fuss about losing to inflict pain onto your main rival . Ahhhhh yeahhhh I think it’s not even a millisecond thought 😝

I understood it as an arsenal fan, from spurs fans perspective, a better team came to north london and won trophies so instead of being better they try and drag arsenal down to thier pathetic level 😂

This is pathetic! Is this even a point to be debated when there’s a potential champions league place available?

Spurs lost more than the match last week. They lost any little pretense of a rivalry. Arsenal are on their own until Utd and Chelsea get better. Teams should show that they actually try against City for that to be a rivalry. In any case Arsenal have to get 95pts or more to beat City. Trophies are coming to the Emirates soon anyway, chin up Gunners. The team is here for a long time. We'll do great things.

Spurs will never win anything 😂😂😂. They'll always be losers

Next season they be crying next season when they loosing. We’ll say I thought you like loosing. It will come back to bite them

No. What did u watch? Spurs players were pulling out of tackles. And son miss. Dun even start about that.

I was at the game and there was very little between the teams. 2 lapses from Tottenham caused the loss.

I bet West Ham beat City but then Everton will beat Arsenal 😂😂😂😂

All the virtue signaling, amazing, I thought football was a tribalistic working class sport. Why after we'd lost any chance of champions league would we want arsenal to win anything.

what's wrong with having rivalries, what is actually wrong with that ?

Calm down Cass

Arsenal has Spurs by the balls so tight to the point that they enjoy losing a game. How hilarious is that 🤣 😂

But spurs are not arsenal rival thete closer to luton or burnley arsenal win trophies bug difference 😅😅

Because of Arsenal fan tv's viewers and the people who appear on the channel.

Truth to be told Arsenal fans are more hurt and stubbed but that is what you can expect from your enemy............another thing, As Arsenal, you can't beat your rival in their own house and not expect revenge. So stop that nonsense and wait for next season

We didn’t want a favour from that lot. Nonsense talk tbh we hate them, they hate us. It’s already toxic but it’ll always be that way. We know what spurs are nothings changed

It’s always been a soft derby.

It’s so far from a decent rivalry because spurs have and will always be a sub par desperate club in Arsenals shadow. They are a laughing stock who once again next year will be a massive step behind again due to their spursy mentality from the fan base and through the club itself

Nothing can beat the rivalry between Manchester United and Liverpool.

champions leauge final, You never do that!

Tbh it’s nothing compared to Celtic v Rangers

Toxic 🤣🤣 they were arm in arm durning the week across utube praying for a City slip 🤣🤣🤣

They were terrible against City , please.

Not even the most toxic in London.

LOL He's right, and hilariously - as of today - we now know Tottenham *would* have qualified for the top 4 if they had defeated Man City (Tottenham won 3-0 against Sheffield United on the final matchday, and Aston Villa was *brutally* destroyed 5-0 by Crystal Palace simultaneously)! That officially makes Tottenham fans the first ever set of fans to root *against* their club making the top 4 and actually *succeeding* in rooting them to failure! XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD Yes, for those who didn't watch the game, it was a lot closer than the scoreline suggests! It was 0-0 at halftime, Man City struggled heavily, and Tottenham actually had *several* chances to score! It is *very* legitimate to think Tottenham *could* have yet again upset Man City (who always appears to struggle against Tottenham) if their fans were actually *cheering them on* to do so (but they were rooting *against* them *in their own stadium)!* XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD This storyline will live on forever! As a Liverpool fan, the one thing I *can* always say is that I've *never* actively rooted *against* my own team, *let alone* when my team needed a win to have a chance at a Champions League place (let alone *successfully* rooting them to failure)! Again, Tottenham fans are now the only fans in history to *purposefully* and *successfully* root for the *failure* of their own team to qualify for the Champions League! That will never be forgotten! XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD

absoulte rubbish it has nothing on West ham vs Milllwall london most feared derby by a mile

Another overhyped rivalry 😂😂 2 middle class small clubs going at it and they think it's toxic or even relevant.. what a JOKE! 😂😂

Cascarino always talks absolute bs when it involves Spurs. He’s never objective and can’t help himself but put the boot in.

We Gooners just laugh at the Shite in White. Because, and everyone knows this, at Shite Hart Lane it ALWAYS ENDS IN TEARS!!!! Oooooohhhh to be a Gooner!!

Both man city and man united have won trophies in recent years what have tottenham won.

I just pity them. I feel sorry for my friends who are spurs fans. Even they feel sorry for themselves.

It's like a fight of who can have the most clueless, deluded and insufferable fanbase in the world.

Battle of the mid. Bottlehood of losers.

Oh shut up Cascarino you haven't a clue

Spurs suck

Actually it isn't. It's Chelsea Spurs. The battle of the bridge proved that. Even West Ham has issues with Spurs.

They've both never won owt in Europe, small club rivalry 😂😂😂
