    Davies joins the list of players on the shelf, Romero to be assessed today.

    More nonsense from the manager in his pre-match presser.

    Postecoglou also defended Tottenham's decision to sign predominantly young players over the summer.

    "We needed to do that because it was a team that was coming towards the end of its cycle, and we were rebuilding not just the squad but the playing style, and you couldn't replace experience with experience because that is not a rebuild," he said.

    "The decisions we made around signing young players are the right decisions for this club for where we are at right now, and they will bear fruit."

    End of a cycle? What cycle? We have been shite since 2020. The last cycle ended with the CL final in 2019.

    Rebuild? Really? You already had a decent squad, a team that finished 5th in your first season. That's not a rebuild. You just needed to add some quality players, but you wanted Timo Werner.

    Young players? You don't play them regularly or send them out on loan.

    What a tosser.

    What do you want him to say? 'I'm an idiot and the chairman's a c*nt'?

    You know what ... don't answer that. We all know it, as you say it at least twice a day.

    Chelsea at Spurs. I've been to a couple of these*, and the atmosphere is always cracking. That won't last, of course, if the performance isn't significantly better than what's been on offer of late. I wish I could say I was more confident of that than I am.

    Make a fist of it, lads. COYS!


    *I've know Jum's been to one, as well. I'm pretty sure that went well, if memory serves. :mad:

    Nope. Just be honest and not insult the intelligence of the supporters.

    My team in the other league wins the championship. Other results in the Premier League were good.

    I’m not going to watch this shit show and ruin my weekend.

    Johnson pounces on a loose ball in midfield, takes it up the right, and crosses to Solanke for a very tidy finish.

    1-0. 6'.

    Maybe I should be watching. TBF my threat was rather weak since it’s not showing on any service I have so wasn’t going to watch regardless.

    Romero off in the 14th through injury. Not good, that. Dragu on.

    Even AT can't dismiss that one! Although Chelski did get an amazing phantom foul call go their way just a minute before.

    Normal service resumed. Christ o hate Chelsea, but they have flown a bit under the radar and deservedly second.

    Another penalty to Chelsea.

    To give Ange some respite from my criticism, there's about 8 injuries to first team players.

    However, if that's the case maybe change the tactics to suit the players you have available, not the ones you wish you had available.

    Really admire Palmer as a player. I mean, we've made him look god-tier, but he really is good.

    Boy, I hate to keep coming off contrarian with you, Jum, but I was just thinking he needs an elbow to the back of his head.

    Jamie Carragher couldn't have said it better on comms describing Ange: absolute rubbish (insert Scouser accent here).
