well, some dude on the Spurs show was hinting about his sexuality playing some part in all of this so at this point its starting to sound somewhat plausible to me at least.

I hadn't realised that being gay/bi/whatever impacted on one's ability to play football. That must be why there are no gay footballers. Now it all makes sense. There was me thinking it was the stigma and discrimination but it was lack of football ability this entire time. What a fool I am.

That's a bit glib, @HildoSpur - I think you know what @onthetwo meant, referring to the stigma associated with hiding one's sexual preference.

On that note, I still can't believe that so many players have to keep quiet. Unbelievable. Something has to be done about it.

What's the cure for that, then? Plutonium supplements? Foxglove? Woodlouse smoothies?

Perhaps growing up a little, same thing for you I believe.

In the soil health thread you said you could believe agriculture might start adding minerals to redress the balance, which I had demonstrated had been lost. That you are unable to understand that, in a world with depleted soils, endurance athletes (Which I'd class Lamela as) might need highly sophisticated mineral supplementation techniques to stay optimally fit, well I'm sorry you can't see it as obvious, the way I do.

Back on the field now. Hasnt returned to full training yet though. Its good news. The news, however, isnt as good with Rose.

I heard he's been stealing supplies from MoPo's office. Nothing major, just the odd row of staples and yellow highlighters.
Well my understanding is Bentaleb wrote a shopping list on a bit of paper that had a doodle on it Potch was really proud of, so we all know how this turns out

Haven't really been keeping up with this but have the club actually said what his official issue is? Has their story changed since he was first out of the squad?

So they've sent him to work....in a field....outside.

New theory. He secretly wants to be a farmer.
