    Jan Vertonghen retires from football after the end of this season

    Injury-wise, Van de Ven definitely has the potential to rival Ledley...

    Ange in or out?

    It sure seems like nobody's interested in discussing him any more. I believe it's the first time I see a thread about the current manager turn into a debate on a totally different topic (but, admittedly, I'm a long-time poster but not a regular one).

    They're not geniuses (well, maybe they are who am I to judge?). It's just plain logic. One mitigating factor, though, is that if he had kept Kane on the bench and we had still lost the game - which was a very likely outcome considering Liverpool were the better team -, the backlash would have...

    Contingency planning : When Ange is sacked, who should replace him?

    Let's have a laugh and ask aria who should be the next Spurs manager!

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v The Cottagers ***

    I'm still on the fence with the clips. Sure, they're not a good look for the players but they also need to manage their output throughout the game. Nobody can run around at 100mph for 90s. So, rather than criticise their attitude, I'd say maybe they weren't very clever about - they didn't pick...

    Ange in or out?

    I believe another important aspect is how damaged our reputation was after sacking both Mourinho and Conte. We may think whatever we want about them, but their names still command - rightly or wrongly - a lot of respect in world football. There aren't that many people who'd be willing to bet on...

    What I do find interesting is that you put the blame solely on the whisperer but don't seem to hold any grudge on the sucker who took the bait. It's not a dig, by the way. I've had the same conversation a week or two ago with a young man on a more dramatic topic (a woman being under the...

    Not at all and I certainly wasn't trying to imply that you have but let's just say I wanted to make the pass he gets in these parts from some more believable! :D In other words, that's just me being obnoxious...

    You've been one of the first to say that some people's judgement on Postecoglou was clouded by personal feelings (and rightly so, in my opinion). I'd say the same applies to you and Mourinho, wouldn't you agree?

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v The Cottagers ***

    Loans are well and good if a player isn't ready but, in my opinion, there's no substitute to testing them at the level you want them to play at. In England, people think being sent on loan for four or five years is a mandatory step in any player's development. Maybe it is in England, because the...

    OMT ** Tottenham Hotspur v AZ 13.03.2025 **

    Defensively, he's never been a world-beater (funny thing is, I talked with an Argentina fan not long ago and his assessment of Romero was the polar opposite of the general consensus on here) but his ability to beat the press is a huge asset, in my opinion. Still think he'd make a much better...

    OMT ** Tottenham Hotspur v AZ 13.03.2025 **

    1) Yes! Since the Liverpool thrashing, I don't trust my gut feelings anymore but it's not unrealistic to think we could beat AZ. 2) Danso made a decent start to his Spurs career but, quite frankly, I think we're missing peak Romero (not Romero's shadow who played against Bournemouth) a lot more...

    With all due respect to your right to feel disgusted (it's a tongue-in-cheek comment but seriously, I respect all opinions so, please, don't be offended), I think the exact same words were used towards Mourinho, Conte and Espirito Santo, to name but three recent managers. Hell, I remember...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Emirates Marketing Project ***

    The only difference being that Mourinho had two of the best forwards in the world. When left with a lot of freedom, Son and Kane were almost unstoppable. Unfortunately, the rest of our team didn't have what it takes to thrive in such a system but, at least, I can understand the logic of giving...

    Ange in or out?

    I believe that's why they're called opinions in the first place and not 'facts' or 'truths'. You didn't ask for it but in my opinion, this is one of the biggest problems of contemporary societies: we (collectively) can no longer entertain the idea that people think differently or have a...

    Putin & Russia

    I'm not sure I understand the reasoning. If Russia is massively weakened, then how is a threat to all of Europe? There's a lot of propaganda on both sides of this war, but Russia is definitely winning a war of attrition here. What makes you think they are on the brink of collapse? If anything...

    I agree there's no way Levy is going to sack him if he wins the Europa League. He'd be crazy to do so anyway. Just imagine the backlash if the next appointment turns out to be bust... Having said that, winning the EL - while a great achievement - would not necessarily change my opinion. What...
