    See my reply. Cringe if you wish.

    The Poch has been confirmed as manager thread!

    I don't think "spuds" is derogatory or irritating but each to their own. I know several arsenal fans who call themselves gooners too - and they're proud to be so. I guess I come from an older generation that was much more tolerant. I remember my late dad was in the army and to call your mate...

    Summer Transfer Wish List

    Think we need to improve our bench as first priority - which also means there'll be the players involved in the domestic cups, so there will be games for them even if we don't get many injuries again. Excepting the 2 full backs already covered we need to have 3 or 4 players of a similar quality...

    The Race to the Title

    I think every club wants to finish as high up the table as possible TBH. Many of them are playing for their future, particularly at Chelsea - new boss to impress and all that. If there is to be any throttling back it'll be subconsciously rather than intentional.There's also the euros hanging...

    Summer Transfer Wish List

    Fair comments about several of our sub players - our bench def needs an upgrade, but selling Chadli goes against my intuition, I think he's proved in flashes that he's got what it takes and more importantly can score goals against the big clubs. He's got the ability to come off the bench and add...

    2016/17 Kit

    It's not the kit it's who's wearing em that matters. Holsten brings back some good memories though.

    Alderweireld, Rose, Alli and Kane in Team of the Year.

    I think they've both (Eriksen) had quieter games (they're only human), but the second Alli got that worldy against Palace his position in TOTY was secure. His tackling back and focused aggression has also (mostly) gone in his favour. Of course cracking the PL almost instantly from league 1 has...

    This sounds like Santi Cazorla.

    The Race to the Title

    So the foxes have lost the leader of their pack for 1 or 2 games - let's blow the horn louder and close on them; #foxhunt.

    The Poch has been confirmed as manager thread!

    Ho Ho this is funny to read through. Of course not being here at the time means you can't check on me, but honestly I wanted MoPo from the start, though I can understand some fans apprehension - that's normal if you're a spud! My reasons being a combination of playing more attractive football...

    Alderweireld, Rose, Alli and Kane in Team of the Year.

    What they left some Spurs players out? I suppose they had to otherwise there'd been uproar lol. Looking forward to seeing England Hotspur thrash Gareth Bale, I mean Wales.

    What is the best thing about being in the Champions League?

    If the improvement under MoPo continues the way it has from last season to this, allied with our performances against the likes of City and Manure, also arse even though both games ended in draws, and especially Fiorentina who were riding high in Seria A at the time, then I honestly believe we...

    Summer Transfer Wish List

    Exactly - regards giving players more than 1 season, I think Spurs and Liverpool are proof of that.

    End of season sales

    His baptism in our league was a bit on the "red mist" side, but he's settled down since and fought and worked hard. If he could get a coach that could channel his aggression he could become a useful striker one day IMO.

    End of season sales

    Hey boys this thread is going loopy - we're not buying Andros back! Aside from Andros, it there anyone else you'd fancy? I reckon Mitrovic COULD BE a raw talent that would benefit from somebody to take him under their wing and develop him, I like his loyalty in fighting for his team as if his...

    End of season sales

    It's funny you should say that because one of my old workmates of many years standing came up with that name, except he replaced "town" with "toon" being vocally challenged that way! The background being how Andros could have been a part of this Spurs side and also England in the upcoming euros...

    Summer Transfer Wish List

    If we did go for Schurrle (presuming this isn't just newspaper bullshit), then he def SHOULD NOT be considered a striker, because like Son, Chadli and N'jie he most definitely ISN'T. That's why I'm a little doubtful about the whole thing - another wide attacker?

    The fact that we're not sure is a bit worrying as we've had Son all season...

    Well Jose Moanerinho royally f#cked up with De Bruyne and Lukaku, and I think Schurrle could be his hat-trick.
