You grow up other man on the internet. If you can't see how his ego changed after the world cup in the way he played, creating numerous mistakes and then trying to point and bollock other players, you've not been watching him that closely.

Also, humour.

Good day. Sir.


I've watched him extremely closely. I've seen that his performances have been largely shit. But that doesn't mean he's got, or acquired a big ego because he had a good world cup.

But what does imply that he doesn't have the ego issues you claim he has, is the stone cold fact that he came out & openly admitted that his performances have not been good enough this season. If he had the ego you're implying he has, he'd be saying fuck all because he wouldn't believe he'd been shit.

You're also forgetting the fact that our manager will absolutely not entertain big ego's or bad attitudes, which tend to go hand in hand. Yet our manager has consistently picked him.

Weird, huh?

Alasdair Gold has just released an interview with him where he's been saying that he's had a groin problem all season, and that with the amount of games he hasn't been able to properly rehab it. Although I don't rate him, it would explain why he was so poor this season relative to previous ones. Even more bizarre how KWP never got any minutes ahead of him then.

If all this is true then we should definitely get rid of KWP as he clearly has no future if he can’t get game time with an injured Aurier and Poch happy to play a half fit Trippier. Shit, even Foyth is getting time ahead of him

I think that Barca gane was it for Poch as far as KWP is concerned. Sad really.

TRIP SHELVED England star Trippier’s transfer to Napoli falls through as Italians decide Spurs ace is ‘too old’ at 28

KIERAN TRIPPIER will miss out on a summer move to Napoli - after the Italian switched targets to a younger right-back.

The Tottenham defender, 28, was dropped from England’s squad for the Nations League finals but a move to Serie A to get back on track is now unlikely.

Carlo Ancelotti’s team completed their season at the weekend and have been clear on their transfer targets this summer.

They want to bring a right-back to San Paolo Stadium but want a player with resale value further in his career.

A Napoli source said: "We will be pursuing a right back but will be going for a younger player, which is in line with the policy of the club.”

Trippier was a star of the World Cup last summer but his form has been mixed this season.

He has helped Spurs get to the Champions League final but by his own admission has suffered an indifferent campaign.

Trent Alexander-Arnold and Kyle Walker are now ahead of him in the pecking order for Three Lions boss Gareth Southgate.

But his market value means Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is still likely to ask for £40million to get him this window.

Total horseshit, Ancelotti confirmed they are keen, I'm sure he knew his age when he said it.

It does say 'switched targets'.

Why would a spokesman come out and say the policy of the club is to look for young targets after their own manager name checked a 28 year old. Clearly it's not a real source otherwise the scouting of Trippier would have ended when they googled his name.

Not saying it's 100% true but it's hardly beyond the realms of imagination that Napoli decided to pursue someone else, all Ancelotti said was that they were interested. Maybe a player they didn't think would be available is now someone they can buy.

Yeah of course, that can happen in any transfer but I'd say that the article is total horseshit as the logic of the article is ridiculous so I wouldn't give it any weight.

I choose to believe the article to be bullshit because I don't like what it says.

Oi come on pal, play fair.

You're literally the very first person to appear & mock someone for using/posting a questionable source, but then you come in here saying "Oh fuck" because of something in The Sun.

THE SUN.

Mate, The fucking Sun.

Seriously, mate, buddy, The mother fucking Sun.

Still love you though.

To be fair the Sun broke the Sanchez to Spurs deal and the Lo Celso link. They are bang on some of the time.

Yes. Because The Sun have been fairly reliable in recent windows. Sure, they come up with a lot of shit but so do all outlets. The Sun correctly called Sanchez, Gazzaniga and Llorente before anyone else, and were the first English outlet to report our interest in Lo Celso.

Theres no way Trippier will go abroad. I can see him going to Crystal Palace if AWB goes or Aston Villa, who will need to spend.
