Winks -> Eriksen -> Winks -> Dier -> Toby -> Eriksen -> Jan -> Rose -> GKN -> Winks
Just like they drew it up on the training ground.

Jacqui Oatley is great, she is very fair and balanced in her opinions and you can tell she really does her research.Absolutely this. In our studio (TV 2 Norway) we've had Jaqui Oatley, Bianca Westwood, Johanna Frandën (Swedish expert) and a couple of other female guests on our Premier League shows in recent years and they have without exception been knowledgeable, good analysts and good speakers. These women are really paving the way for female pundits and the game and the profession is richer for it.
Aren't you the same person who was all made-up abut Hoddle or Keane or Ardiles saying "we" about Spurs?She isn’t the worst pundit about but anyone who is supposed to be neutral shouldn’t refer to the team they support as “us” and be totally deflated when their team loses as she did when Arsenal lost to us the other week. She also refer to us in the build up tactics talk as playing the diamond formation even though it was clear we were playing 3 at the back.
To be fair she is not the only one who does this on sky and I find their pundits on a whole as completely biased and unknowledgeable about many teams they talk about.
You Bastard! I was eating when I read that and nearly puked!I wouldn't trust that. He probably uses Jurgen Klopp's cum.
This is an interesting discussion. I think there's significant bias on both sides.
She's clearly not a "rubbish pundit" as he claims - she's no worse than anyone else on Sky for certain.
She is, however, absolutely bang average in her punditry still. She offers no better or more articulate insight than 90% of existing pundits, and she definitely isn't one of the better pundits out there. There are many far more interesting people talking about football floating around our tv's and radio's at the moment.
He also has a point in the fact that she's yet another Sky pundit with a genuine (and understandable) Arsenal bias who continually get assigned to our games, while Sky try to defend themselves by throwing in two non-Spurs fans who both had 5 minute careers at the club.
Ultimately Scott is a tv sports exec's dream - she's young, she's a good player in her own right, she's not white, she's pretty, and she certainly doesn't embarrass herself amongst the company of established pundits. She's therefore getting massively disproportionate screen time at the moment as all the networks seem to have signed her up to appear practically round-the-clock.
However, the bullshit that's getting thrown around about not having women commentate/offer opinion and the usual "snowflakes" cringe-worthy crap is ridiculous. She's perfectly capable of appearing on our screens and being a positive presence.
What I really hope is that her success opens the door to actual good female pundits to get their chances - regardless of their appearance/clubs/backgrounds etc. That would be real progress.
I don't care who talks about my football as long as they actually know what they're talking about and can offer interesting opinions and insight. About 80% of the current crop doesn't offer that, and Sky have the worst stable of all by far with the exception of Neville.

Even if you aren't I'm sure my point is clear.
I agree but there is only so much magic that poch can produce he can't keep pulling rabbits out of hats it's remarkable what they have achieved so far.We need to buy someone but can I see it? I'm unsure at this moment in time. We needed to buy in summer but didn't and winter is more difficult.
I have a feeling Levy will look at Son coming back in 3 weeks, the result today, Poch working miracles & the targets he wants, and decide to keep his wallet in his pocket. This could be a huge mistake.
All of us can see the urgent need for more quality but Levy sees things totally differently. I know it's a business for him but investing on the field (like Scousers), brings more rewards off it.
Thought Winks had a cracking game. Run the central midfield almost on his own and then scored a great winner.
Catching up on the highlights... I have to say that we should be thanking our lucky stars for Jan and Hugo. If not for them that could have been very embarrassing indeed. As if that wasn't the case every game anyway of course. Two absolute examples of their positions.
If that performance and the nature of the rexult doesn't prompt some movement in the transfer window, I really have no idea what will.
.. Ref was a proper ****.
..
The looks on some of the faces behind the goal are priceless
love the guy in the spurs beanie nodding it in.....
