    Christian Eriksen

    Fergie would've had someone of similar level ready to come in to replace him. We don't - imagine the inquest if we'd lost 2-0 with Eriksen starting on the bench. No-win situation for Poch. Drained or not, I thought Eriksen was very poor on the ball and his work-rate way below par.

    Moussa Sissoko

    Similar thing happened in injury time. Zaha had the ball and was twisting and turning Aurier and looking to work inside to get a shot away from the edge of the box. He had tricked his way past Aurier but Sissoko had dropped in, shouldered him off the ball and ran off at speed before drawing a...

    Moussa Sissoko

    Personally thought his passing was very, very good last night. Up a level on what its been previously.

    Serge Aurier

    This approach from Aurier probably won us the game against Dortmund. In that game we were pretty timid and sat behind the ball for long periods of the first half, turning over possession on the rare occasions we did win it back. In the 2nd half Aurier was very aggressive in leaving his...

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    I know what you mean - it just seemed even worse that it was sooo obvious that he was going to pass sideways or backwards. Swansea knew it as well. When he was on the right there was always the threat that if he got the ball in the right position he might be able to put in a great cross. Its...

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    Trippier switched to LWB was even worse. All he did was play 5 yard passes inside whenever he received the ball. Absolute madness that tactical switch. It was like playing with 10 men/a cone for the whole of the 2nd half. Poch said in the press conference that Dembele was tired after Wed. He's...

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    I also wonder if our performances are, to some extent, reflected in or influenced by the fitness and motivation of the opposition you are facing. So - at the start of the season all clubs are pretty toned and fit. The Poch method of pressing/wearing down/war of attrition in possession seems to...

    Champions League 2017/18 - Round of 16: Juventus

    I am thinking about doing the same thing. Did it in Madrid a few years back and it was easy enough.

    Yep tickets auto-allocated - no option to choose where you want to sit. A minor gripe, just glad to login and get a ticket.

    Danny Rose

    A very good point. I do think we've become a lot more streetwise over recent years. We certainly put in a few robust challenges again yesterday (Dier & Verthongen)

    Danny Rose

    I think Davies is good enough to replace Rose. Different player but he's done enough since the end of January to earn the shirt long-term. Our league performances have not dropped without Rose. I don't see a way back for him as first choice personally.

    Danny Rose

    I wouldn't deal with Chelsea - no matter what they offered. Same stance as Levy had with Modric. Good to see you back Nayim.

    Mauricio Pochettino - Sacked

    You'd have to say that looking at that little list - there is clearly value to be had waiting for the end of the window to strike. You'll win some and lose some.

    Fixture & Ticket News 2017/18

    Hope the club are doing another package deal for the CL home games. A few of us came down from the North East for each CL game last season, great fun with beers & an overnight stay.

    Politics, politics, politics

    On this point, I note a lot of people jumping up & down shouting that the NHS is underfunded. I have very little knowledge on this other than some brief reading but aren't there lots of NHS Charities, trusts & funds which individuals can contribute to? So, instead of imposing tax rises across...

    I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

    Lamela defying science - now his 9 month "injury" finally makes sense!

    Harry Kane MBE

    Its ok I get it. I had similar power with mint crumbles I've been taking to the Lane this season. They ended unbeaten but didn't cut the mustard at Wembley or when watching on TV.

    The race for 86 points

    @SteveAWOL & @the dza - great posts - feel slightly better now that 86 points would quite often mean you come 2nd. Our aim has to be repeat this performance next season. I think we could easily drop 10-12 points at home so we need a massive improvement away from home. I just can't see us...

    Danny Rose

    if that's true why have we waited this long to operate? I'm all for the rehab route but he's been out nearly 4 months - surely we could've made the call 2-3 weeks ago?
