    2023/24 - The Race For..................

    We've got more gears in us and we're still picking up points. Loving that. Cut out some of those silly errors as well where we're gifting goals away and our defence will massively improve. Feeling good.

    Will FFP finally put spurs where they belong?

    Other clubs making upgrades or building entirely new stadiums are also doing so in a totally different economic environment right now. The interest rates and insurances they'll need to undertake those projects will be vastly more expensive than we paid, and that's also not considering we're now...

    Match Threads Nottingham Forest vs Spurs

    If Romero had done half the stuff Yates has this half, it’s all we’d hear about for the next week.

    2023/24 - The Race For..................

    Might be a tad too far this season, but Liverpool will be missing Salah and Matip for the AFCON. That's arguably among the most damaging miss(es) for any of the top teams and I'd be hugely surprised if it doesn't impact them to some degree. Man United as well. Onana and Amrabat are two starters...

    Player Watch Player Watch: Cristian Romero

    He knew he nearly fucked up today. Usually he slinks away after a bad challenge like nothing happened. Today he made himself immediately visible. Something of a learning curve. It was the second kick out that I didn’t like though. He was late to the ball initially but then instinctively...

    The ousting of Daniel (COYS)

    I’d also thought the club were making balanced decisions over the years and how the stadium would be a game changer, then COVID, etc. but I think it’s becoming clear the intention isn’t and hasn’t ever been to actually win. The boards goal is football at the top table - be that CL or a Super...

    Harry Kane

    Kinda relieved ngl. If reports were they put down £100m + add-ons or something like that, I think we'd be getting the 'here we go' soon enough. But if it's £75m ish up-front plus minor add-ons, there's a good chance Kane stays. Bayern aren't striking me as the sort of club to burst in with a...

    Edmond Tapsoba

    Feels like more of us are getting super pissed off with the clubs recruitment and this deal, and our wider approach to get a CB, are at the heart of it. Fed up with deals for players at clubs who need money, one year remaining on their contract, using a loophole or part of a relegated team. It...

    Edmond Tapsoba

    If we were being quoted £60m+ behind closed doors, I could understand reservations about doing a deal (and we should have moved on by now) but if we talking £45m for a highly rated CB who fits the new system, how are we not doing that deal? This quoted price might not be 100% accurate so pinch...

    Different players though. Skipp and Sarr feel like options on the opposite side of a Maddison/GLC when we want a bit more defensive cover in the midfield. Both good players but I think we all like the idea of GLC + Maddison along a holding mid but that might not work against a bunch of teams...

    Harry Kane

    If we have a clause to buy him back, you can just see Levy not investing properly into a striker replacement because he'd be expecting to shell out again in 2-3 years. Can almost guarantee it. The entire problem, and why we've done a disservice to a once-in-a-generation academy player, is that...

    We also swapped Conte's wages for Anges, which won't even be close. Can likely call that a £10m saving per year, before we've sold other players and sorted loans out. There should be the money to bring in both VDV and Tapsoba here, even with us not being able to get proper market value for a...

    Pre-Season 2023/24

    Nice to look like the team with an extra man on the pitch again. Imagine if we had some solid defenders.
