Oddly enough was just talking about this exact thing in my 121 with my manager and how far too many in the project management world are like this, yet complain when others don’t pull their weight. Instead of helping them fix and issue they just fix it themselves then complain that they’re always the ones doing it.

It's called hero syndrome. It's a very negative thing, in terms of high performance. It feeds bad behaviour and stops people from developing.

In fairness you see it from Spurs fans too and on here, so I'm not surprised other's get it wrong.

I don't mind it as a "oh, isn't he", it's more when you have Loudmouth McGobshite on another forum, acting as the encyclopaedia of football, and everyone having a dig because of that very incorrect fact.

Much like when people say we "didn't sign a player for 2 seasons" when it was 1, although that's extra annoying considering Real did the same thing last season and no one bats an eyelid.

Completely agree!

Surely this is inferring that if Kane isn't in the squad then A: He has requested to be omitted, B: Nuno has decided he's in completely the wrong frame of mind for playing and not selected him or C: The deal for City has been done which makes him ineligible but is to be announced after the game.
I think I'd have a small wager on C

Or D: He's hardly trained with the rest of the squad, all of whom have had weeks to get to know Nuno and what he wants. No matter how good a player is, you can't just lob him into a team who have all been coached to play a different way than when he last played with them and hope for the best. Especially if he isn't there, fitness-wise, after his little Florida stunt.

Manchester City:
Pep Guardiola has refused to discuss Manchester City’s interest in Harry Kane during his latest press conference, despite having already addressed their attempts to sign the striker from Tottenham, who they play on Sunday.

“I answered this question the previous press conference,” he said. “He’s a player from Tottenham, I’m not going to talk about him. I made an exception last time, usually I don’t talk about transfers.”

I’d put him on the bench on Sunday, just to make a point. Let him hear the crowds reaction to him and his brother’s bullshit shenanigans We can have nine subs anyway, keep sending the guy out to warm up in front of the fans every now and then. Make the guy fucking stew in his juices for an hour and a half.

Bottom line, they've got to pay the money. We will know if there has been a serious offer when we see real movement on our bids for a striker. Not lauturo, a proper striker. If that doesn't happen, Harry will be staying put.

Is that worth souring the whole atmosphere at the stadium for?

Let me translate what Nuno really meant.

“Eric told me what a pussy Harry was, of course I didn’t believe it, but then when I met him turns out Eric was right. He walked into the changing room with an Oasis T shirt on. Later when he was getting changed i noticed his balls were really small, almost like he had pioneering surgery to remove them, when I asked if during one of his surgeries, had he had them removed he said “no, I gave them to Charlie, obviously” - strange guy, he then wandered off singing blue moon”

Can you imagine the floodgates of opinions that will be opened and posted in the match thread seconds after the squad is announced on Sunday. I'll be fascinated to see what you all make of it from over here. Should be a nice way to 'warm up' the emotions just before the kick off
