    Carabao Cup 25/26

    Yep, all day long Our game needs more black and white rules like this. As long as the referees follow the laws of the game, they can be as draconian as they like in my mind. That includes things like picking up the ball and running off with it when it's the opposition free kick or standing...

    Luca Williams-Barnett

    I love the way he said "I'm so used to the U21s" even though he's 16.

    Richarlison

    Offensively, obviously nowhere near the level of our 2 legends. Defensively, way better than our 2 legends at their current ages. We've just had back to back seasons conceding over 60 goals in the PL. A well known fact, but fans also forget we've just completed a hatrick of seasons of over 60...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Agree. For me, interchangeability was a missing ingredient in previous seasons. I saw a fair few narratives that we couldn't achieve that because of squad depth. For me, that was somewhat true but it was more about the tactical system that made it genuinely quite difficult to switch players...

    Tottenham Hotspur 2025 Europa League Winners !!!!!!!

    Yep - Chas Hodges will be turning in his grave at that rubbish.

    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?
