You only get to boast once fella!
Griezmann had 20 goals in 49 combined appearances appearances this past year(16 in 34 in the league). 2 years ago, he was about 1 in 3. Depay was 14 in 43 in all competitions this year. Konoplyanka was 13 in 36. The 1 in 3 thing being a strike against AG is rediculous when its actually better than that and is the best of the bunch. Either the club is taking the piss or JJ is, honestly. If the club is going for 1 of the 3, which it sounds like they are, I'd hope they go for AG then Depay then Konoplyanka

I think I've just proven that one can boast twice easily.

As mentioned earlier, nothing groundbreaking but something for punters to mull over and maybe get cocky over towards Chelsea fans.
So my ex missus had a housemate who I knew well who regularly waitresses for the spurs boardroom. She was there for several years and grew accustomed to her being there and openly talked about all sorts of things in front of her and, often, to her. Apparently chairmen of different clubs actually meet regularly to discuss various things, which I guess makes sense.
However, Abramovich has a LIFETIME ban from the Spurs boardroom because he refused to obey one of Daniel Levy's strict but simple rules: that EVERYONE must wear a tie. It's just a a lovely bit of info as our little bald guy has basically stuck his middle finger up and told an insanely powerful Russian [likely] criminal to do one. Bit of a David and Goliath story I guess.
Also, a massive reason for Redknapp and Levy & his boardroom falling out was that whenever Spurs lost, Redknapp would talk to the media and then storm off home. He would outright refuse to talk to the board and often his own team regarding the defeat.

Haha nice stuff Forehead, always enjoy little tidbits like that, fascinating stuff 
So the fact that Abramovich stole billions from the Russian people AND poached Frank Arnesen had nothing to do with the boardroom ban....

I have never heard any reports about Griezmann comment on poor consistency nor have I watched enough Sociedad enough to form my own opinion about it but it is possible to score goals and play crap (Dempsey and Siggy have done it).
Also, if you look at when he scored his goals in the season, he scored 12 and assisted 2 in a 12 game patch and then only scored 4 assisted 1 in 19 games afterwards (4 games no goals or assists before). The season before, he scored half of his goals (5/10) and almost half his assists (2/5) in an 8 game patch, so maybe he isn't as consistent as we think.

That's ridiculous. If people can't afford to help, they shouldn't be shamed. And listing totals only creates an arbitrary pecking order that is undeserved and not good for those that run this place.
We know this because it was done on the old software.

Sadly, that story reflects better on the kleptocrat than on our very own Blofeld. It's a wanker's rule, isn't it?
