Only one of them didn't tip us for relegation! :clap2: Sensational comments too. It's amazing how so many of them thought Spurs squad was settled, rather than stale.

I just don't see any value in it when you're playing against a team with one striker. There's absolutely no need for it and we always look far better balanced when we've got a more conventional back 4. I would say we've played more games with a back 4 than 3 at the back, but it might be pretty...

Why? My team would be; Ryan Montoya Duffy Dunk Bernardo Pröpper Stephens Jahanbakhsh Gross Trossard Murray Subs Button; Webster; Mooy, Alzate, Bissouma; Connolly, Maupay :albion2:

Sounds good - quality over quantity is definitely the way to go. I was talking to a friend yesterday who is doing London as her first marathon and is intending to do two high pace sessions every week and was amazed when I said that almost definitely wouldn't do her any good come the big day. Her...

I assumed that Louis Van Gaal had taken up a new career. :glare:

You didn't climb back up the ladder to 1200m again? ??? :lolol: Good, tough session. Is that in preparation for Brighton or are you tackling another?

I don't really care what people who don't watch us often say. We know more than the results - and we know last season was horrific to watch and we stayed up courtesy of some miserable performances in incredibly fortunate 1-0 wins in November/December and then a Knockaert miracle goal at Palace...

:lolol: That is a candidate, but it was actually £35m (rising to £40m if, by some miracle, he hits performance targets). He's young enough to have a resale value/come good under the right leadership though. Torres was basically the equivalent of Michael Owen, past his peak but still being...

:lolol: You need to take about a tonne of salt with anything posted by Crodo! If Man United get £20million for him - that will be arguably the greatest footballing theft since Liverpool snatched £50million for an expired Fernando Torres. I believe that his agent will get him a move, lest we...

I've seen 7 films in the cinema this year (Cats; Frozen 2; Jojo Rabbit; The Gentleman; Just Mercy; Seberg; 1917) and for me, Jojo Rabbit, The Gentlemen and Just Mercy are all level at 8/10 for me. Just Mercy was Screen Unseen last week at Odeon, where you don't know the film you're going to see...

Totally spot on in my opinion. I don't think it deserves Best Film ahead of Joker, comfortably the best film of last year in my opinion, from Once Upon a Time in Hollywood and Knieves Out.

:ohmy: Puts running in the UK into a different perspective for sure!

Sure, but if you pass the ball directly to the opposition on the edge of your penalty area then you're being stupid and deserve the criticism. Even Man City will play long if they're pressed in at the back, and that's with their strongest players available. If you've got a patched up team, why...

Have you seen the goal? I know they had a manchild in goal, but when your opposition are camped out on the edge of your area, you give the ball a shoeing and hit Callum Wilson. That's just simple stuff, it's stupid to play it short in that circumstance and there is no chance at all that Smug...

100% go and see it - it's incredibly well filmed and an intense experience. I completely agree with your boss - I was disappointed with it overall but what you can't fail to be impressed if not amazed by is how it is shot as a single take. You're experiencing everything with the characters...

And just looking at that list - I really can't believe that ANY of them would have been a competitive 5k runner. Peter Smith maybe, he loved his marauding runs from full back. He might have been a challenge, I seem to remember John Westcott having a bit of pace about him (absolutely no ball...

I think they'll keep him because of his history with them - he deserves a bit of leniency, mainly because of the past but also because they've got a whole team out injured at the moment. I do think he's been wasteful with the funds he has had available, and seems to fall out with players who...

Some of the players big nuts and I reminisced about probably haven't been spoken about in years. :lolol: The glory days of Ian Culverhouse playing sweeper wearing number 7, Glenn Thomas' nightmare at Brentford, Mark Ormerod just in general! Marvellous and a good run - not to mention unusually...

That was a Junior Seagulls day out game - I was there with half a dozen boys from the Portslade Dolphins. On the bus ride up there I was trying to convince them that we were a better team than they thought and that supporting Man Utd, Arsenal and Liverpool was a pointless exercise because you'd...

Wonderfully, I was up and out of bed in time to cycle over to Worthing for their parkrun today. Obviously the wind was a serious factor in the first almost half, but also a touch of laziness set in. It was clear that I wasn't catching the guy in 7th and wasn't likely to be unable to fend off the...
