    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers, Molineux, Sat 25th April, 3pm - ***

    Fully agreed. The effort was absolutely there. The fight was there. They struggled at times with controlling their frustration about the thing, but that's only natural I think. But our struggles don't look like a lack of caring or trying. So much quality lacking through injuries it's unreal. Us...

    The we are staying up thread

    While there are obviously things that can be done to impact confidence and belief away from results I think getting results is the only way to really shift the needle on confidence and belief. For the first time in ages we'll go into a league game having won the last league game. That will do us...

    The *WHEN* we go down thread

    That period of the game when West Ham were winning, Simons getting that injury, we fell apart a bit for a while there it looked to me at least - didn't find a way to play. That period it felt like the title of this thread... But not without a fight we won't. Really well done to the players and...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Wolverhampton Wanderers, Molineux, Sat 25th April, 3pm - ***

    fudging hell we needed that. What an emotional roller coaster of a game with the changes to the West Ham score, injuries, is looking good at times looking like we may fall apart at times, the goal, the save at the end. New injuries will make things difficult, but a win should boost our...

    Luka Vuskovic

    I don't know what the best plan is with him. I do think our plan should be to get players here used to winning games too next season...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Don't think later years Kane could physically do what he could do earlier in his career. Kane to me seems the closest we've had to a model pro at the club in many years. Since Bale/Modric/whoever. The expectation of him to be perfect regardless of the circumstances is part of what I was...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    To me "giving their all" will absolutely be influenced by belief in what the manager is trying to instill. To me that just seems like human psychology. Doesn't matter how much money they're paid, how professional they're supposed to be. If there's real belief there that will get more out of the...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Porro and Romero for me will be key for De Zerbi to play the way he wants to. Romero already does the "opponents decides our speed" thing. If we can get Porro more passing options instead of giving him the ball in difficult situations asking him to do the very difficult things he and we will...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Ignoring his handling of Greenwood I think he's a fine appointment. I don't see how he's good enough to warrant top money on a 5 year deal, but guess that's the desperation of the situation. But years is not the perspective right now anyway, just need to stay up.

    Interim manager thread 2.0

    Fully agreed. Just to add... Hired someone for a very public job with a lot of media visibility.

    Interim manager thread 2.0

    I don't know which quotes specifically they're referring to. Quite the false dichotomy you're setting up there.... As I said in a previous post most of us will draw that line in different places. I'd say it would be a good idea hearing out those supporters groups first before dismissing it?

    Interim manager thread 2.0

    What virtues are you signalling with the second paragraph there?

    Interim manager thread 2.0

    Complaint from the Supporters groups that have spoken out seems to be that he defended Greenwood and doing so in a way that downplayed what happened. I think it's very much fair to have issues with that from a manager.

    Interim manager thread 2.0

    I think almost everyone will have a line, but as you say it will be personal. It's OK that we don't all draw the line in the same place.
