    Match Threads Spurs vs Olympiacos - Match Thread

    Suspect Jose is going to be a lot less forgiving and patient with someone like Foyth than Pochettino might have been.

    Jose Mourinho

    I couldn't be happier about Mourinho joining our club. Literally every moment of every day and every little thing at our - and any - club is geared to winning football matches and Mourinho is a winner. Yes, it's not going to be pretty at times but i'll take an ugly win over a delightful draw or...

    Poch: In or Out? - You CAN change your vote

    His midfield against Sheffield United was Ndombele, Lo Celso and Sissoko. They were over-run and outplayed. That's not a question of talent, it's a question of tactics.

    How much of it can we keep together?

    Bringing on Lichtsteiner was a game-changing substitution for which Poch had no answer. I'd go the other way personally and highlight the times Poch has made tactical gambles that have invariably not come off. Son at left wing-back anyone? The fact that Pochettino has given us an identity we...

    The Mauricio Pochettino thread

    Now is the appropriate time. Sheffield United are a fine side but they made us look like mugs. Pochettino was thoroughly out-thought and the players clearly weren't playing for him because there's no way you're going to convince me our midfield of Sissoko, Ndombele and Lo Celso aren't better...

    Poch: In or Out? - You CAN change your vote

    Of course Pochettino should go. I'm not sure I can really understand the argument for keeping him at this point. The results are horrendous. The players aren't playing for him on the pitch. He was out-thought and his players out-fought AT HOME by Sheffield United, Watford, Newcastle and other...

    NY Cosmos Sign Robbie Keane (for a friendly)

    Sure. He was at my parents house last week and he's sold the rights. He may very well still be involved, but its not financially.

    NY Cosmos Sign Robbie Keane (for a friendly)

    Kemsley and Keane are very good mates, but Kemsley doesn't have any financial interest in the Cosmos anymore.

    You're a schmuck.

    Huddlestone

    Huddlestone? Good player, but not mobile enough nor imposing enough, in my opinion. Don't buy this rubbish about what a wonderful passer of the ball he is. Sure, he can smack the odd Hollywood pass 100,000 yards and land it on the players nutsack, but too often his passing of 10/15/20 yards...

    The Key to our new season - Ledley King

    Sadly, King isn't 'key' to anything anymore. He's a wonderful bonus when he plays, but his problems are well documented. Gallas, Dawson and Kaboul are perfectly ample, and, presumably if Bassong goes, they will look to bring in someone else.

    Squad Pages

    As far as I was aware, he was technically out of contract, but still training with the club and considering our offer of a new deal. Between him and Ranieri, can't help but think neither of them has a bat in hell's chance of making the squad.

    Modric

    Maybe never. But that doesn't necessarily mean he can't be replaced, by better or equal, (or someone fitting the team dynamic) for less or equal amounts. Manchester United sold Ronaldo. Arsenal are going to sell Fabregas. AC Milan sold Kaka. I'm not saying selling him without some sort of...

    Modric

    Don't see the fuss with selling Modric, personally - as long as they achieve the right sort of price. Either by retirement or transfer, he's going to go at some point, and anything above £30m more than replaces him. Although I fully appreciate his place as the heartbeat of the team, I don't...
