| “Winners take responsibility, losers don’t.” — Trophy Series | Tottenham Hotspur Blog News |
Good morning to the winning mentalities and thank you.
To the rest, I’m laughing at you.
It’s all way over your head as yesterday’s article demonstrated the Yves Bissouma Situation, and oh, by the way, I have been talking with the club, yes.
Most recently the Head of Football Communication.
If I have criticisms of players, it’s only right that the club have a private contact for me.
I’ll explain all in today’s article, but before we do, let’s hear from Thomas Frank and take an excerpt from his first press conference:
“It is better to be positive than negative because it is very difficult to achieve anything or achieve anything big or do things that were not possible before if you’re not optimistic.”
🧠 Mentality Assessment: Anonymous Abuse
❌ The Mentality of Anonymous Abuse
Abusing someone anonymously is not just an act of cowardice — it reveals a deeper psychological profile that stands in direct opposition to a winning mindset.
Here’s what it shows:
1. Lack of Accountability = Losing Mentality
Winners step forward and own their views.
Even if they disagree, they sign their name to it.
They’re proud to stand for something.
Anonymous abusers?
They hide in the shadows because even they know their comments wouldn’t survive scrutiny.
They want to cause harm — without risking any of the consequences.
That’s the very definition of weakness.
2. Jealousy Disguised as Criticism
When someone targets your work — not with reasoned disagreement, but with personal abuse — it usually means your work is effective.
They see the momentum.
They feel your insight.
They sense that your voice is being heard.
And rather than compete with that by improving themselves, they try to tear you down.
That’s not disagreement.
That’s insecurity.
3. They Want Power Without Effort
Anonymous abusers crave influence, but they don’t want to do the work to earn it.
They don’t create content.
They don’t build audiences.
They don’t sign their names.
Yet they think they’re entitled to criticise those who do.
That’s the mark of someone who resents ambition — not someone who’s trying to achieve anything.
🕳️ What Hiding Says About Them
Let’s get to the psychology of being anonymous:
-
It removes the need for courage
-
It strips away any risk
-
It emboldens the worst in people — because they know they won’t be held to their words
This is anti-leadership behaviour.
True leaders are transparent.
They’re willing to be challenged.
They don’t need masks.
💡 Winning Mentality vs. Anonymous Cowardice
| Winning Mentality | Anonymous Cowardice |
|---|---|
| Owns their voice | Hides behind a screen |
| Critiques ideas | Attacks people |
| Builds something | Tears others down |
| Competes with respect | Tries to sabotage |
| Uses failure to grow | Uses abuse to feel big |
🧨 Final Thought
The abuse I’m receiving isn’t about me — it’s about what I represent:
-
Progress
-
Conviction
-
Vision
-
Courage to put my name to my thoughts
People who lack those traits often feel threatened by those who have them.
So they lash out.
But remember: nobody anonymous ever changed the world.
And nobody with a losing mentality ever won anything — except maybe a comment war they didn’t even have the courage to sign.
Anonymous people are proving they have losing mentalities by hiding and thus their opinion is worthless.
And I haven’t delved into the world of constructive criticism over negative criticism.
There’s a world of difference between constructive and destructive criticism.
One seeks to build — the other to belittle.
Constructive criticism challenges ideas, offers perspective, and respects the process of improvement.
It’s rooted in a desire to see something — or someone — get better.
Destructive criticism, by contrast, is cowardly and corrosive.
It hides behind anonymity, offers no solutions, and thrives on negativity.
It’s the voice of someone who’s never built anything — and never will.
To me, that’s a losing mentality.
And a losing mentality offers nothing worth listening to.
🙏 To Those Who Put Their Name to It…
Not everyone hides.
Some of you take the time to think.
To ask insightful questions.
To challenge ideas respectfully.
To add value — not venom.
You don’t always agree with me — and that’s the point.
Debate builds understanding. Criticism sharpens thinking.
But you put your name to it.
That alone sets you apart.
It shows courage.
Conviction.
And above all — a mentality worth respecting.
Winners take responsibility, losers don’t.
This blog is for you.
Thanks for raising the level.
