    Harry Kane tells club he wants to leave this summer

    4-5 years of world class front line firepower in a team that values movement and technique over athleticism (although it is given its appropriate due). A perfect fit for a striker that can play in multiple positions in forward areas. 150 million is a pittance for the returns it will guarantee...

    Harry Kane tells club he wants to leave this summer

    Agreed. To City would be the perfect replacement (and upgrade) to Aguero. Winning 2 to 3 premier league titles and potentially a few champions leagues, working with the best manager in the world and a relatively young world class team. Fair enough and I wish him well. He has been brilliant for...

    Harry Kane told moving to Man United would NOT be a step up

    Well it doesn't really help when he has Moussa Sissoko - giving away penalties in the first minute - in his team.

    Harry Kane told moving to Man United would NOT be a step up

    Totally agree. Harry is not looking to take a step up to the next level. He needs to be playing at the highest level. For me, I would not begrudge him at all being the Aguero replacement for a cool 175 million quid. Thank you for your services and good luck for the future - enjoy the Premier...

    Ryan Mason will become youngest manager in Premier League history

    Good pre-match interview. Sharp lad. Confident, articulate, said all the right things.

    Jose Mourinho sacked by Daniel Levy days before Man City Carabao Cup final

    Ah I see - didnt see the troll account. But it does seem a very Jose thing to do to leave on moral grounds. He is a football man.

    Match Threads Everton vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 32

    I posted this in a different context but the same thing applies. I dont disagree with your post in principle but when this same bunch of players get one top manager sacked and a managerial legend look past his sell by date, I start thinking the players may have some role to play.

    Match Threads Everton vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 32

    A good comparative analysis. Disheartening to see the level of quality in our team. And in terms of the squad - even with Bale, Dele, Bergwyn, Venicius on the bench; wouldn't see much of a shift. And the likes of Lamela, Winks, Sanchez, Davies; Le Celso are really mid table players at their...

    Well perhaps not just about one CB getting injured. But the loss of that CB played a huge rule in them struggling for top 4.

    Match Threads Spurs vs Man Utd - Match Thread - Day 31

    I thought it was good to have a managerial legend like him join our club. Today if I had to make a choice to keep him or keep Sissoko, Lamela, Winks, Dier, Dele, Sanchez, Lo Celso (quite a few other names as well), I would prefer to keep him. There is only so far players can take you. This lot...

    Well I always knew to a certain degree but how shockingly poor he is struck me as so obvious in today’s game. He simply cannot pass a football, his positional sense is non existent and he just athletically occupies space in a disjointed uncoordinated manner. He came on and we just gave up the...

    Summer Transfers

    Thanks Trix. I wont trouble you for clarification, but everyone else - does this mean that Jose is on the brink of exit and his list of players is therefore irrelevant. Or does it mean we are struggling for transfer funds?

    Players 'fed up' with Mourinho criticism

    No plan? So what did he tell Sanchez? "Make sure you pass the ball straight to a opposing forward in your defensive third so that we concede a goal"?

    Gareth Bale willing to boycott social media over abuse of footballers

    A someone layman question. Who defines “tolerance”? Is it a definition that is subject to interpretation based on the times we live in? Or is it anything that doesn’t/may not result in physical violence?
