Quite like barton now

Just how shit do you have to be to get fired from Talksport

Considering Jim White... he must had done a line of blow off the tits of the station managers wife

 

[Dougal]

They are on a bit of a run so I'm surprised he even picked two. And I guessed which two they were straight away. You had me at Spurs tinted glasses.

Jesus Collymore sounds like a right wanker there. Just shouting and can't even answer a basic question.

You've just realised Stanley Victor Collymore is a wanker of Goliath proportions?

 

[Shadydan]

I hate these joint team things, so childish.

 

[fortworthspur]

he has borderline personality disorder according to his autobiography.

Asks different questions to try and prove this weird point, interrupting himself even. He's a a typical shouty tabloid egotist. Doesn't matter if he's right or wrong, point is that he's loud and fills the space.

 

[Wellspurs]

Forget his team, I didn't realise the reason Stan and colin Murray had left Talkshite. Murdoch now owns it along with The Sun and soon total control of Sky Sports... dangerously too much power over the game IMO.

Murray left saying he couldn't work for Murdoch/The Sun, as a Liverpool fan and Hillsborough campaigner (or something).

Collymore just didn't have his contract renewed.

 

[Gaz_Gammon]

He's plying his trade on Sirius channel 85 (a good footie channel by the way) and is trying desperately to become the slimmer version of the Alan Brazil show. The tripe he comes out with would sink him faster than the Titanic in the UK but here, many callers know as much about the PL game as Bob Bradley.

In short Collymore is just a chancer.

I think something like this:

Loris

Dave
Alderweireld
Vertonghen
Rose

Wanyama
Alli
Eriksen

Pedro
Costa/ kane
Hazard

Wanyama over Kante? Really? I like Wanyama but there is a significant gulf in quality between those two.

It depends on the formation. Their 3-4-3:

Lloris
Azpi - Alderweireld - Luiz
Moses - Kante - Eriksen - Rose
Costa - Kane - Hazard
​

Our 4-2-3-1:

Lloris
Azpi - Alderweireld - Luiz - Rose
Kante - Matic
Hazard - Alli - Eriksen
Costa
​

If it was just based on this season then unfortunately you would have to go Costa over Kane.

Luiz is also contentious, but he's been excellent so far this season and is much better than what many people give him credit for.

 

[Kiedis]

If only we had Victor Moses instead of Eriksen and Alonso instead of Alli, then our team might have been going places. Sigh...

They are a good, well rounded team that gives the absolutely briliant Hazard and Costa a platform to shine, and what Conte has done with the players he has available is very, very impressive. But they would have been even better with Walker and Rose as wingbacks, Alderweireld and Vertonghen in their backline and Alli or Eriksen as part of their front 3.

 

[Xeeleeyid]

The thing is this season so far you'd be hard pressed to get any players from any other team in that Chelsea team. As a unit under Conte they have so far looked unstoppable. They've only dropped points in three games so far this season, that's unbelievable. BUT, the same set of players were so off the pace the last two seasons and they've had no European football to.contend with. It's no coincidence that our form has improved dramatically after getting our players back fit and being knocked out the CL.

All things being equal, Alderweireld, Walker and Rose walk into that Chelsea team and Lloris, Vertonghen and Dembele wouldn't look out of place but you know I can see arguments for their Chelsea counterparts. Kane and Alli are as good as Costa and Willian but again its like for like. Yes, I'd take Hazard over Eriksen and Son. Lamela and Pedro is another meh toss up

 

[Ron Burgundy]

Twatty Stan's just trolling...he's probably taking a break from dogging.

That is so unfair...you have no idea what you're talking about

Stan never takes a break from dogging

 

[knowlespurs]

guy is a total idiot, was a dick as a player and is a terrible pundit
who cares what he thinks

 

[JimmyG2]

Made the Spurs Community front page
so must be doing something right.
It'll get a lot worse before we finally cash in
in 4 or 5 years time and we are top of the League
and have won the Champions' League,
and as Real are my other team it's a win win situation.
But if we achieve all that
he may decide to be one club man
with the two Harry's.

'Optimistic' away.

 

[dynamoSpurs]

Are Huth and Morgan better than Toby and Jan then? You could also say that Benzema is better than Messi if Madrid win la liga this season if thats how it works

Fair rebuttal but I don't think Lester are comparable with Chelsea in this respect

Not sure being a thread on Spurs Community is the benchmark of success. Judging by some of the things on the real front page, you could say the bar is quite low..
