    Richarlison

    Let me stack rank the pure strikers first and then I'll try and think about where the elite line is. I'm too young to include Greaves. Kane Klinsmann / Lineker Sheringham / Berbatov Keane / Defoe Allen Adebayor / Kanoute Where I'm struggling is where to place Archibald and Falco, perhaps even...

    Fabio Paratici - Also Sporting Director

    And he did all this single handedly and with nobody else involved? He managed all the meetings and the negotiations etc himself? He went into the software systems and entered all the information himself? He was signatory of every layer of the deals including proxy for the finance team? Come on...

    Richarlison

    Q: Who was elite out of Keane and Defoe A: Berbatov Still gutted we didn't get Bellamy when Harry first joined. City snaffled him in that January and we ended up with Keane back. We'd seen the best of Robbie and he never really looked that great in his second stint.

    Fabio Paratici - Also Sporting Director

    In my mind this is the key part "Tottenham have not commented on the agreement, but sources close to Paratici stress that acceptance of the suspended prison sentence was made purely to reach the quickest possible settlement that allows the Italian to focus on his career in football and put the...

    Destiny Udogie

    It's always a good conversation. I somewhat agree with you. We're currently loaded up with Romero, VDV, Danso and Dragusin plus Vuskovic, Takai, Dorrington and Phillips at centre half. The chances are we end up with a very good quartet or quintet of centre halves. It is important to have...

    Alfie Devine

    Yep, as I said Alfie's camp were smart. They only accepted an extension of 1 year when the loan happened and the new contract offer came along. If not, he'd be out of contract at the end of this season. Signing up until 2029 or 2030 would have been madness for him based on the lack of...

    Richarlison

    I think critiquing any player is just fine. With the Richi scenario, I'm quite relaxed. I don't really recall too many number 9's being available in the recent transfer market to find a clear upgrade. I also see the club taking on punts on several younger players to create a pipeline for the...

    Destiny Udogie

    Yeah, not seen him this season and I know everyone was raving about his last performance. What I saw in the past was him being over zealous. He wasn't going to ground, just making it so easy for the refs to give fouls. They were absolutely fouls as well. I remember writing in the past that he...

    Destiny Udogie

    I believe Spence being around has been good for Udogie who I believe has a higher ceiling as a left back. I also think Frank being around will be another massive differentiator for Destiny. In my mind, Udogie has the highest ceiling at left back. If he can lose the petty fouling, work on his...

    Alfie Devine

    I think the reality was that the loan purchase option of £6m is just under 3 times the value PNE have ever paid for a player. What a story it would be though if PNE get promoted. Alfie was born in Warrington. He was picked up by Liverpool as a kid but released at the age of 11 and went to Wigan...

    Cristian Romero

    Yeah, I know this is a Romero thread but I'm not really just talking about one player. I'm talking about the system that impacted loads of our players over the last 2 seasons. Those situations where Romero and VDV were injured and it was Dragu, Gray and Davies trying to play artificial lines in...

    Cristian Romero

    Respectfully, you're still missing it and keep going on about the high line. I watched over and over as our defenders went to the nearest point that made the "line" in the deeper positions. It is very different from going to the man and marking, or going with a runner. Can you imagine telling...

    Cristian Romero

    lol - so it's a fan adjusting to suit a narrative when another fan spots something that you don't agree with? I didn't just watch goals. I watched tons of open play moments in that zone and the deep offside was a clear root cause of the discomfort of our players. I wrote a lot about it in the...

    Dejan Kulusevski

    I guess rotation and number of games will always negate that question a little. I'll run with it though. My CL final line-up in May would be Vic Porro, Romero, VDV, Udogie Palhinha, Sarr Kudus, Xavi, Kulu Muani Of course, Johnson will get the winner ably assisted by Madds from the bench.

    *** The official 2025/26 Premier League thread ***

    lol - the last thing we need is Villa, Everton and Toon all growing organically the right way following the Spurs model. Can you imagine having a top 9?

    *** Tottenham Hotspur vs Doncaster Rovers - Carabao Cup ***

    I guess Chris answered the question. If Biss isn't in contention then it's natural for Gray to slot into midfield. As for Destiny, back to back games after coming back from injury may not work. I guess only the fitness and medical team know what he can and can't put his body through.

    It's a good shout on Scarlett. He must feel a little out in the cold this season.

    *** Tottenham Hotspur vs Doncaster Rovers - Carabao Cup ***

    I have a dilemma about this one. Donny are 7th in League One and will put up a fight. I'm never a fan of changing an entire eleven but would think we have a better chance of making mass changes and performing under Frank than we've seen in the past. His system is more likely to stick with the...

    Yves Bissouma

    It will all be about the player / manager relationship and whether the player gets his head down in training. Biss hasn't just become a bad player and was our best player at the business end of the EL campaign last season. The difference this season is that we haven't got an injury crisis...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton & Hove Albion FC ***

    That is exactly what I'm saying. Those poor tech guys worked for years and years to bring a set of cool technologies that can help the referees get the on-pitch decision right based on the laws of the game. Then the stupid humans that run football negate all their hard work by implementing the...
