Re: Postecoglou to Tottenham

Back on the subject, at least Ange (too hard to keep typing his surname) has identified our weaknesses (which were glaringly obvious) and has moved to address them. More than the previous two managers could do.

Bye bye Harry :wave: All this noise is paper talk because he's got one year left on his contract and Levy is doing his usual "I won't sell for any amount" BS, there's no way he'll write off that much cash next year, but I have still not heard a single word or direct quote from Kane saying...

Re: Kevin Nesbit transfer to Millwall

Good to see that you agree he was injured just after he failed a medical. Some might say that the medical team saw an issue and that's why they didn't sign him. Some may even take the words of the Hibs manager taljing about the instability in his knee as a sign that there was an issue as well. Some...

Re: Champions League 22/23

ManCity outplayed by Inter for long periods in the first half, but did enough with Rodri’s second half strike to win this Champions League Final. Haaland was strangely quiet, forcing only one save by Andre Onana. Inter’s Demarco hit the crossbar late in the second half, then Lukaku missed an absolu...

Pretty much every Spurs fan thinks the same. Lloris has never been the same since he smashed his elbow, needs to go. We should have spent £60m on a keeper, not Richarlison.
