Fiorentina players already having multiple lie-downs and we're only 5 mins in. Could be a long boring night, like the Europa League final.
West Ham fans are full-on brain-dead. West Ham fans; 'First European final in over 40yrs, you know what we should do?' 'Throw shit at Fiorentina players?' 'You read my mind.'
Citeh's Sportwashed Billions won the CL, and still have all those FFP charges hanging over them. Mehhhhh
City fans used to be great, back when they were shite. 30k in the 3rd tier is impressive. But a half-generation of riches has made them a bunch of unbearable, entitled turds. Not that ours wouldn't be just as bad. Hell, some already are. I pray that never happens to Spurs.
I imagine Grealish is kicking himself for not joining Spurs when he had the chance....wait, that was because Levy was quibbling over £5m wasn't it?
All you need is to walk in to a club with Messi, take over at the German team that wins the league every year, then land at a club who’s petro-dollars dumped a billion+ pounds in to players and you too can be “the breasted manager of all time” Ranieri’s title with Leicester is a more impressive achievement than anything Pep has done. … and yeah I know sentiments like this are just as tiresome as the Pep is the greatest
I'd be impressed with Pep if he won a trophy with Spurs. He'd be overcoming the most powerful Hex Curse of all time.
He will be available after the 2024-25 season - just in time to join us after AP gets us back into the CL and the new owners are in place. One can always dream in football.
I’d bet NYCFC. He loves New York and they’re opening their new stadium in 2025. That team has all the charm and interest of a rice cake and I’m sure Mansour isn’t thrilled with how utterly ignorable they are.
Rodgers rejoins Celtic. Bournemouth sacked O'Neill and got a Spanish manager. Darren Moore leaves Wednesday by mutual consent, despite getting them promoted via the play-offs and one of the greatest games at that level, ever.
They're all mystified up there. Some folks throwing out possibilities as to why, but everything seems a reach. I'm gutted. If there's a consensus on Moore, it's that, on the minus side, he doesn't seem tactically on top of matchday. If the setup isn't working, he's not quick to see it, nor to make the right adjustments. And on the positive side, he knows how to build a squad, with good balance, and more importantly, getting players that buy in and that work for each other. And moving up a division, it seems to me that his strengths are precisely what Wednesday need right now. It's absolutely an area where Wednesday have been poor prior to bringing in Darren Moore. Carlos Carvalhal built a decent squad, but that was during Chansiri's early, big-spending days. But they'd been woeful since ... until Darren Moore, that is. Dejphon Chansiri has often during his tenure as chairman at SWFC looked like he doesn't know what he's doing. Perhaps never moreso than now. More will come out in due course, I'm sure, so it'd be premature to make assertions already. But it's a bad look. Levy-haters, I swear to you - with 100% confidence - it gets worse than what we all complain about. Much worse.
I have also heard that one from a lot of the Levy apologists - meaning we should be grateful because there are worse than him out there, despite his own poor performance. Let me count my blessings then.
Kane got 2 for England. Saka got a hat-trick. Something about Saka. He plays with a big smile, like Son or Dawson. Can't help but like the lad, despite him being an Arsenal player
I believe Maddison has better stats for a team that got relegated. Rice is young, English, and the 'man of the moment'. If someone's willing to pay that kind of money, crack on. There's no guarantee a player will be a 'hit' though. Spurs and Arsenal have sent wads on slightly above average players like Pepe, Party, Ndombele etc.
