The determined criticism is making me pro Big Dan B now. I don't think he's our long term answer, but to begrumble him being caught out against a rampaging skillhound like Traore or a nimble artiste like Salah seems bitterly unreasonable.
Guaranteed penalty now of course, but so be it.
I like the idea of a Brunorphanage, in which young and lonesome talents from around the Spanish-speaking world live in his large, slightly eerie, mansion, being fed and bettered as a person/footballer.
Failing that, and painfully similar, mutant footballers who find refuge and purpose in the...
I've noted Gross. He is so slow, physically, but at least twice as fast as any Tottenham player, mentally. And so deft. It was a classic Gross performance, and there he is at the end running his old people's home socks off.
I recall in the mid-80s one of those minute tornadoes forming on a mildly gusty day on a corner on Lewes Road, and my 11 year old self suddenly engulfed in a maelstrom of cranial and vaginal perms and greased knockers.
Glad the Velt-man getting applause. He was outpacing someone today, which I don't recall before, but overall he had an excellent blend of toughness and chic. Class.
Thank f*ckarama for that. A proper performance from a team fighting, in a slick and purposeful fashion, to survive. Very proud of them, after a knackering week.
Tau looked good, but an inauguration of 90 minutes in the Premier League, on a big pitch, with another game just days away, does seem too much. Fit and ready for the weekend. Bingo.
Good advice i'd say.
Sprinted a lot in the half he had, but generally looked chaotic and ungainly. Has some work to do to get into the rhythm, and mature to know when and where to scarper.
I hope that is 2 individual halves that guide Potter forward with our season. Dan Burn has to have a break as he can have his magical times and be madcap, but is not a consistent top-flight defender, and certainly not a wingback either. For a player impossibly tall he doesn't seem to dominate in...
It doesn't seem logical to me to dispose of an experienced keeper that isn't quite cutting the mustard, with us seeming to want to cut our wagebill, bring in a youngster who seems to have the attitude and potential to see us through the rest of the season at least, and then spend a small fortune...
Not exactly a fascinating 24 minutes, but semi-interesting to hear about him trying to give players in the squad their chance. He said that was out of fairness, and i didn't realise that had much of a place in football, and certainly not in the industry itself. I hope decency doesn't prove to...
A frustrating outcome to a game i thought we could control and nab. With that line up of oafs what else could happen but balls flung in the box. Annoyingly, of course, their 2 subs could fling them in dangerous areas. Difficult to defend against in moments, but we didn't look confident in...
expecting a sub or two soon from the sourpuss. His plan to really harass the right side of our defence with 82 year old Mark Noble doesn't seem to be working.
They seem bobbins, but a chance or 3 will come about in the second half, and a second goal and collective strength against these bland...
Am in that there Spain this Christmas with the missus' family. When heading to a Carrefour today i messaged to say: can you see if they have any IPA? Beer.
I had been hassling her to get some glue for our 3 year old to stick some stuff together with and she glanced at the message, presuming it a...
Not until i was 28 and circled by a gaggle if unruly, be-cycled youths in that there Hackney, where i unfortunately was rather similar to their schoolpal Fatty Bighead. The onslaught of these 12 year olds continued for a good 15 minutes or so, before i disappeared into a pub and the cry of Fatty...
