    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Haven't read on yet so perhaps others answered this well. For me, it's quite simple. We have a stacked squad with 2 players per position. That includes LB where Davies takes the second slot. We cannot afford to bring new players in unless we sacrifice 1st teamers in the same process. That...

    What you talk about in your first paragraph is why Howard Webb wasn't the right replacement for Mike O'Riley who was absolutely useless. As a referee we all saw that Webb would happily ignore the laws, even when he saw it clearly. Just ask any Spanish fan in 2010. That has now permeated into his...

    I think you have to look at the laws. I'm no expert but I have never read that it matters what part of the pitch we're in. It also doesn't matter which minute of the game we're in. Most decisions that the refs get wrong are the ones not given. Easiest example is when the entire world knows it's...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    My bad. Been crazily business and not seen all these links. I mean that some exits are just expected. Davies as an example is end of contract. Richi will only have a year left and we're not providing him a new contract. So I don't see any surprises about him leaving. Others though are more...

    Xavi Simons

    I think my challenge has always been that VAR has been setup in a way that 80% of decisions are subjective. The "clear and obvious" determination nonsense is the best example of that. In reality at least 80% of decisions are not subjective, but only if your official is only using the laws of the...

    Thomas Frank - Head Coach

    Why do you think Johnson is leaving in Jan? Personally, I'd love to see some brave exits by the club. Vic, Bents, Dragu, BJ, Odobert are clear candidates above the obvious Davies, Richi and Palhinha. I often wonder whether Frank benchmarks Vic against David Raya. The latter was clearly a top...

    Fabio Paratici - Also Sporting Director

    All I can think is that a couple of years ago we wouldn't have been talking about those other players in the PL like we do now. That means there exists another pipeline of players coming through. Perhaps having a fantastic data model approach under Lange could help us become incrementally better...

    But you'd never want any honest football stakeholder anywhere to accept it. I would happily sit down with any pundit or official and call them out on their BS. At Sky, it is off the scale at this point. It reminds me of Trump and Putin in the way they make out that something that is absolutely...

    Cristian Romero

    That's interesting. So you're allowed to kick someone in the chest and it is only be deemed as a second yellow, not violent conduct. We do live in a crazy world with modern officiating. I've always been for retrospective action from the FA on these players. Just because you get away with...

    Fabio Paratici - Also Sporting Director

    I think you're right about players not choosing Spurs. I think we're over complicating things though. We have a stacked squad at this stage and there should only really be very few transfers at this stage of the evolution. Apart from speculating on some U21's, they should all be major signings...

    What would YOUR priority signing be in the Jan transfer window?

    I'm now thinking it's important to find both Palhinha and Bents replacements in the next 2 windows. Obviously, neither will go anywhere until the summer but it would be great to get one of them into the club in January. That is obviously assuming Devine, Hall or Abbott won't be a mainstay in...

    Cristian Romero

    Yeah, a real chance for Danso to get a run of games. Dragusin and Takai get ever closer to the action as well. What would be interesting to see is in the event of an injury whilst Romero is suspended, whether Palhinha drops back in or whether Dragu, Takai or even Davies get the nod.

    You talking about Ruben Neves? Gomes has played all season for Wolves.

    Feels like Joao Gomes is off to Utd for something like £45-50m. He'll make a difference there, like he would at our place.

    wtf is Neville talking about? That was clearly unavoidable contact and Bents took the pressure out of his foot. If he hadn't have done Isak wouldn't have got up for a while. Neville is actually out of order with his commentary.

    Yep, and if you put different colours in the Sky studio PGMOL would soon adjust.

    To me, VVD exemplifies the double standard and inconsistency that exists in PGMOL. Over a long period, he hasn't been refereed to the same scrutiny as most PL players Nothing to do with today's decision.

    Exactly that. There was also an elbow or two. He's scum.

    We should be booing him every season, every game. He's thrown elbows in these fixtures and he's crossed the line and the referees need remidnding. He's a nasty piece of work that deserves the full treatment from our fans.
