    The Guardian's pre-season assessment

    McNulty is a laughable Liverpool fan. Still recall him at the end of last season putting out an article about the Big Five, which obviously included Liverpool and not us.

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's All Laugh At West Ham

    Wonder how long Bilic will last. His time in Russia was a disaster, and so far it's total lack of discipline and injuries from what looks to be overtraining. Porn barons cannot afford a relegation battle.

    What our opponents' fans are saying

    No chance of Clasie being better than Schneiderlin, it's not just Schneiderlin's passing which is excellent, it's his defensive work and good physicality. Clasie is a good passer and decent work rate, but not in the same class.

    Spurs are interested in Chicharito

    His salary of around 90k a week is too high.

    Tottenham to bid for West Brom's Saido Berahino

    Berahino has knuckled down a lot in the past year, fired Aidy Ward as agent as well. He's nothing like Adebayor. Playing-wise he's also fully capable of playing wide-forward as he did with the U21s alongside Kane, where they were really good together. £20 million in the current market would be...

    Who was better at their best, Rose or BAE?

    I prefer Rose, so much energy down the left side like having a wingback. BAE was only ever a decent fullback at best. Rose needs to improve his crossing and build on last season to be clearly better though.

    Defensive Midfielder- Who should we look to?

    Xhaka was being heavily linked to join Bayern this summer, but Gladbach and Xhaka have refuted that. He signed a new contract earlier in the year and they are in the CL, could still be sold but would take a 20 million euro offer at least, and would need to persuade him.

    Temporary Home?

    Can't stand Scudamore. Such a corporate douchebag.

    Temporary Stadium plans "blown out the water"

    How is it "completely unfair"? Scudamore has always been in the pocket of the SKY 4, and especially United. He was practically demanding that they finish in the top 4 last season. Saying that, us playing at Wembley for a year and sharing with Chelsea is such an obvious move for everyone. If...

    Riding the wave of optimism

    Last summer we could have got him if the club had gone in a week or two earlier and offered 20 million. Dithered, tried to get him on the cheap and therefore lost out. The last minute stuff has often felt to me like an excuse not to sign players the manager wants. Not progressing rapidly also...

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's All Laugh At West Ham

    Astra should go through against Inverness, look a reasonable outfit on paper, unless the Spammers take them 100% seriously they could get turned over.

    Let's All Laugh At... Let's All Laugh At West Ham

    At this rate can see them failing to even qualify for the group stage, still got two more playoff rounds to go, both of which are played around the first few Prem games, and there's a big step up from this. Next playoff round could get a Vitesse or Brondy, and the final playoff round is the...

    Are we a team full of underrated players?

    After Gareth Bale I learnt that yes, most opposition fans are bitter and/or clueless. I lost count of the number of United fans who used to claim Nani was a level above him, and that even Valencia was a better winger. Then even at the point where we sold him to Real Madrid there were rival fans...

    What our opponents' fans are saying

    All the Southampton fans I know have Arsenal as their second team after Southampton got relegated. Bear that in mind, as well as Rupert Lowe's comments and now Poch/Mitchell.

    QPR have right-back Ryan Fredericks on their radar

    Well he can't leave on a free next year, unless he moves abroad, as being out of contract means he'd still be a tribunal case to another english club.

    Spurs to reignite Kevin Mirallas interest and launch £7m bid for Everton winger

    I can see him being pretty low on the list, he's not offering more than Chadli as a wide forward, not really a Prem striker either. So we spend transfer money (even if we outright swap for Lennon) and would have to pay a decent wage as well for someone who isn't a clear upgrade.

    Tottenham target Anthony Martial signs new Monaco contract

    A pity, but Monaco's coach in particular was adamant he wanted to keep him. Looks like the club backed him and getting a huge fee for Kondogbia took the pressure off needing to sell. This isn't a position where we're desperate, can afford to sign someone lower down the list as cover. It's CM...

    Rangers boss Mark Warburton seeks loan move for Harry Winks

    Warburton is a quality manager, but the footballing level is way too low.

    Tottenham close to selling Paulinho to Guangzhou Evergrande

    Paulinho and Capoue going gives the money for a top level midfielder, Schneiderlin, Imbula or similar. That would be a huge boost, two unneeded players gone and a starting XI player in. Trimming the squad and improving the team at same time.

    The All New Spurs U21, U18 & Other Youth News Thread

    Chelsea tried the same approach several years ago, looking to poach away youngsters for big money. It achieved nothing, none of those youngsters got a chance in the first team and with fat contracts none of them had any motivation to improve.
