    The bit from around 43:10, where he talks about just "walking through" ... has Frank impressed on them that's not what they're supposed to be doing in the actual games?

    *** Tottenham Hotspur Vs Forest *** OMT

    It's definitely not the way I envisaged things going, but I would argue our league position could actually be more precarious than last season's. As many have pointed out, last term's bottom three pretty much always looked doomed regardless, so we never really looked vulnerable to the black swan...

    I'd stick with your original 'tons', rather than adopt the metric unit, as I think the expressions, 'tons on here' or 'a ѕhit-ton of people' would predate mertrification. 1 ѕhit-tonne (1000 kg) ≅ 2200 lb 1 ѕhit-ton (long, UK) = 2240 lb 1 ѕhit-ton (short, US) = 2000 lb 1 ѕhit-tonne ≅ 0.9842...

    I assume "...not a quick fix" is code for "I need players."

    *** Tottenham Hotspur Vs Forest *** OMT

    If I had to place a bet on where we'll finish, at this point I'd probably say 14th. Finally getting the likes of Kuluševski and Maddison back might lift us a few places higher (I don't honestly see Solanke having a major impact on things) and .there's always the hope we might bring one or two in...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur Vs Forest *** OMT

    I think it was that accidental period where the players still didn't quite understand his "philosophy", so they were still getting into defensive positions sometimes out of habit and managing to look like they had a clue as footballers ;)

    I just think we need to own and use the middle of the park more. We need an old-fashioned midfield general in the side: a Mickey Hazard type character. We haven't had that for fuсking ages. Bentancur might be supposed to be that player, but he just isn't.

    Somehow clawing it back twice with your main CB assuming centre-forward duties ... it's entertaining for the neutral (I expect the sight of Richarlison arriving in the box about 3 seconds too late for the first was particularly amusing), but these performances are just bewildering to me. Frank's...

    So far, this has looked like the football equivalent of two drunks swinging at each other in a pub car park.

    You do feel there's something up. There'a a video online, I think posted by that Cowlin guy, of Frank walking onto the pitch after the final whistle Saturday: he goes and shakes hands with the ref and linesmen, then he seems to spend more time interacting with the Fulham players (handshakes...

    At this rate, Frank is going to be under pressure sooner rather than later. There seems to be precious little pattern of play and no-one really taking responsibility. The final subs tonight seemed to do more to kill the momentum than add to it. I really hope he gets some better quality to work...

    *******Spurs v PSG*******Official OMT*******

    That's a gross oversimplification. For example, there are also different ways of modelling the flow field and pressure distribution across a wing section under different conditions, at different Mach numbers and so on. They won't necessarily produce identical results in terms of raw numbers...

    *******Spurs v PSG*******Official OMT*******

    That's just a reflection of the fact there's different methodologies for modelling chance creation and coming up with a 'quality' measure. The numbers don't have to be identical across methodologies, as long as you stay internally consistent.

    Some people like to analyse data to see whether patterns emerge. There's no more to it than that, really.

    *******Spurs v PSG*******Official OMT*******

    There's more to it than the quality of your finishing, surely. An individual xG stat (ie for a single goal attempt) is a measure of the quality of the chance, so (xG total)/(shots total) measures your average quality of chances created in the game. If a goal is scored from a chance created, then...

    I started watching with the lowest of low expectations. We didn't do as badly as I'd feared, tbh, but setting this alongside other recent results, I can say there are very few in the squad right now I'd be at all bothered about losing. Richarlison, I'd happily swap for a second-hand lava lamp in...
