    Managing Director Football: Fabio Paratici

    Reports are that he marched out of the Man U Game and never came back. Looks like he stormed out and immediately got on the phone.......as things were happening the next day! I like that.

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    You always get a buzz when he's on the ball - you never know what he's going to do. Often he will trade the most pedestrian of passes and you think what's the point, and then he will score a goal like today. I think he needs to be renamed Ndombaby - the slightest of impacts has him rolling on...

    Ryan Mason yet to discuss his future with Daniel Levy

    Bit of a non article. He has probably just signed a contract - so unlikely to run to Levy for further talks right now. He needs to do some 'talking' on the pitch first.

    THST call for club's board to resign in wake of European Super League fiasco

    You would think listening to SKY that the proposals have no merits at all. Technology has reached the point where clubs can stream direct off their websites. Tottenham has 180M fans world wide. A subscription of only £1 per game has the potential to bring in £180M per match. Of course not...

    Leading European football clubs announce new Super League competition

    The premier league is nicely balanced in that there is usually something to fight for: avoiding relegation, fighting for both of the European Cups, fighting for the title. However the clubs can run pay to view direct from the their websites, cutting out SKY and BT, and avoiding the Fifa/Uefa...

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Dynamo Zagreb

    Best I have seen from Davies - better linkup with the forwards....less crosses hitting the first man....solid and intelligent defensively. I had thought Regulon the better option, but at this level of performance it makes selection a hard decision.

    Player Watch: Gareth Bale - Retires

    Bale is like a car with a dodgy choke. It takes a while to get going, and its all a bit hit and miss to start with......until the engine finally gets hot.....and we are cruising.......... and please dont stop! On the pitch (maybe not off the pitch!) there is a reticence to him. Why start at...

    Player Watch - Carlos Vinícius

    I wonder if Jose is pushing forward Dane Scarlet...as our second striker, rather than make Vinicius permanent?

    Player Watch - Tanguy Ndombele

    I have been trying to figure out what it is that Ndombele does that is different from other players. These are some thoughts: Firstly he hits the ball harder - as a norm - than any other player. He fires arrows into the penalty area with accuracy. If you have player like Kane with a superb...

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Wycombe

    Sissoko certainly not Man of the match, but deserves a mention. Jose placed Sissoko as RB to do a job. Most of the opposition threat was coming down their left wing. He moved Sissoko to RB and it all but stopped. Its clear that despite Sissoko being a bit low on flair, having a woeful...

    Spurs loanee Skipp is a centre-back's dream, according to Norwich City skipper

    Nicely done by Hanley! Why not boost the confidence of the young players around you. Also well done Skip.

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Sheffield Utd

    If you look at Tanguy in open play, you will see that he consistently hits the ball with a halfway position between instep and side foot. The ball comes off at an oblique angle - which is exactly what he intends. Now look at the replays very carefully - you will see that this is exactly how he...

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Sheffield Utd

    Ndombele for me. He passes the ball harder and faster than another player - often they are arrows into the penalty area. If the receiving striker has the touch to control the pace of the ball, they will often be in a excellent position as Ndombele is brilliant at spotting spaces between...

    Mourinho warns Spurs could refuse to play if further matches are postponed

    mmmm I thinks he wants to play their reserve/youth team....so do I!

    Match Ratings Ratings vs Leeds

    Incredible from Hojbjerg - always in the right place....and so many tackles! Davies was good....noticeably less attempted crosses....no bad thing as he always hits the first man, some great defending. Toby looks absolutely at home these days.

    Watching all the other draws in the premier league this weekend......the Wolves match seems more of a lost opportunity rather than a real disaster.

    Match Threads Liverpool vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 13

    I feel Kane was being pulled from behind, and hence is not quite as far forward as he wants, he then leans his head forward at the last moment to try and reach, and its at the wrong angle (your head tends to point down if you crane it forward). It was a subtle foul and there was little more he...

    Hmmmm as Spurs supporters we are all in that boat! Maybe some green shoots this time around?

    Match Threads Chelsea vs Spurs - Match Thread - Day 10

    Yes not the best footballer - especially when it come to shooting. However I can distinctly remember 3 or 4 occasions when he tracked (thundered) back into defence and made key interceptions. I think he is winning a lot of defensive brownie points!
