In other news the sky is up and water is wet ?

Its really annoyed me for years this media clamour and praise for how well Leicester are run and that all clubs should follow what they've done when anyone who has a brain and looks at their books could tell you they really shouldn't be.

Have money plowed into them from foreign investors, I won't question how they got their money but some would, and have a ridiculous wage ratio. Its the Chelsea and City model so what the hell is everyone talking about?

Really grinds my gears that


Except it's not.

Or simply select the front 3 purely for tactical reasons rather than them being our best three players? Stretching, penetration, getting in behind etc.


Nah. t's Spurs Community strongest 11 & anyone else is just making up numbers.

Unless one of those players is Winks, in which case the opposition manager would want us to play him.

Got slammed for my Tielemans love.

What's everyone's top 5 CM targets?

Phillips, Neves, McGinn, Tolliso, Bissouma . Don't know if this is my order, but they each could bring something to the squad

I really like Edson Alvarez. Selling Winks and replacing him with Alvarez would be a good bit of business.

Hmm, 24, 50+ caps for Mexico, Ajax play good football. Might be a good shout. I don't know anything about the guy.

What would you say are his strengths?

Don’t look at me. I’m irrelevant.

Think Jack Harrison would be a perfect fit for LWB: good age (25), Prem experienced, tactically diciplined, great engine, good defender, effective attacker, left footed, good crosser, powerful finisher, can slot into other forward positions if needed.

8 goals and 8 assists last season; he'd easily match that in a Conte system.

I heard a link to Maguire on football London podcast . Controversial but with a fresh start snd a properly organised defence maybe just maybe he could be our LCB? We need more English players too. Also loving the Phillips and Harrison links!

It is if you jump in it


Then it makes you wet, but is not wet in itself.

Water physically cannot be wet.

“In a liquid-liquid interaction, such as water by itself, we can say that water is not wet, as molecules are all bound together and not wetting one another.”


Riveting stuff! :cautious:

whilst I think he’s a good player in poor form just can’t see united letting him go for the sort of money we’d want to pay.

I love the last 7 words of your post.

I'm refusing to allow my mind to comprehend everything you said before that.

Old slab head, the world's most expensive laughing stock? I need a hug.
