    Harry Kane

    Kane, despite being the best English striker since at least Greaves, doesn’t deserve to win trophies. And that’s simply because football’s a team sport and trophies are won by teams. Being part of a team that’s good enough to get over the line and win a trophy usually requires you to be a...

    What Our Opponents' Fans Are Saying About Us 23/24

    Good God @Jgplk1, your fine work in this thread is widely appreciated, but you’re really taking one for the team with this particular barrel of lunacy. Don’t put yourself through any more of it! They’re totally deranged. One sensible line in there - they should indeed inform the on-field team...

    What the pundits & media are saying about us

    Exactly. Incompetence, yes. Conspiracy or corruption? No, hardly ever and certainly not this one. If you’re gonna be corrupt, you’d want to do it a bit more subtly than that! (Cue Matt Le Tissier saying “That’s what they want you to think” 👀)

    What the pundits & media are saying about us

    Puzzled by the fuss on MotD over the VAR monitor showing the freeze frame of Jones’ boot squarely on Bissouma’s ankle. Firstly, that’s the whole point - showing that the opponent had been endangered and it was likely serious foul play. Secondly, their own footage showed the screen then show it...

    Son Heung-min comes to Klinsmann's defense amid remote work criticism

    I hadn’t seen that this was happening. How often - with the exception of when player safety is at risk owing to war or threat of terrorism - do international sports teams play their matches in a foreign country?

    Let's All Laugh At... let's all laugh at United

    For public-facing employees whose actions could impact the image of the employer, especially something as high profile as being a Man U player, I’d expect the employment contract to include clauses around bringing the club into disrepute, or at least a broader definition of “gross misconduct”...

    ….and my secret second team is….

    Gillingham, my local team growing up. Acquired in the 90s by a self-interested, money-focused businessman, who could never see that he was largely responsible for most of the club’s problems as time went by, and was untrusted by almost everyone. However, unlike Spurs, the Gills had a change of...

    Not the only Small bid we’ll make this summer.

    Harry Kane

    Good point. I see it as if Kane stays, it can be spun as City are the bad guys, flashing their knickers at him, but not willing to pay the price. If Kane goes for the right price, people will accept it, No real bad guy given where we are, the reality is that this was always likely to happen if...

    Harry Kane

    Indeed. You can’t ever take an agent at their word because they act primarily in their own interest. Doesn’t matter whether it’s football agents, recruitment agents, estate agents, secret agents… Hell, even dealing with your local newsagent you should check your change ;)

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 7th August 2019

    Like an amateur, I managed to schedule a knee op for tomorrow, so will miss much of the deadline day build up and then spend the climactic few hours in a morphine/codeine haze. Visiting this page tomorrow afternoon in that state is going to be a wild ride and then some! :confused::ROFLMAO: Top...

    The Daily ITK Discussion Thread - 28th June 2019

    Gareth Bale 2018-19: the world's 7th highest paid footballer Gareth Bale 2019-20: the world's 2nd highest paid golfer :LOL: (Even if I think we'd be mad to commit to even half his wages, part of me would still have loved him to be back and I agree it's a shame for his career to potentially...

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    No, it’s Janet Jackson. She’s been busy over the weekend but now Glasto’s out the way she’s back on the ITK ??

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    The best suggestion for a song for Tanguy has to be be The Lion Sleeps Tonight. (Can't claim credit for it, saw it a couple of times on Twitter.) In the Tottenham, the mighty Tottenham, Tanguy loves us all; In the Tottenham, the mighty Tottenham, he hates the Arsenal; Ndombele, Ndombele...
