    ***OMT*** Tottenham...Thursday Night In Frankfurt

    Agreed, Dier was massively for us. I think he actually ended up on the right of Toby in a 3 man defence towards the end of that season when we were battering teams. Son became the super-sub. I have a feeling that Wanyama and Dier both started 40-50 games. I have a sneaky feeling Davies played...

    ***OMT*** Tottenham...Thursday Night In Frankfurt

    Yep, from what I remember the double pivot had guys like Paulinho, Stambouli, Capoue around that time but the youngsters claimed the shirts. I might be wrong, but I thought Dembele was used more further forward when he did play. That was his Fulham position. I also seem to remember him having...

    Scott Munn

    It is, but now the smoke is about Munn getting canned. If that doesn't happen momentum will shift back in his favour as people appreciate his work. If it doesn't happen then he will be the spacegoat along with Ange as they walk out of the door together. Then when we do well next season and have...

    I think it took some time to convert / convince Mousa that centre mid was his natural place. At Fulham was an inside left winger and had even played number 9 earlier in his career.

    Yes, and Big Vic was his perfect partner, hence the 16/17 observation. That was also the summer we lost Walker. We were never as good again in my opinion.

    Careful, don't let the truth get in the way of a good story. I've always said 16/17 was the optimum of our club in recent times. That is when we were genuinely a good team.

    Scott Munn

    That's fair. The women's team is perhaps the exception there. Cullen has got the title even though to me Munn owns the entire thing. However, on stadium sponsorship, F1 karting etc the club has done well with the 3 amigos. I want to see everyone accountable for better football results...

    Scott Munn

    It was actually something Munn said in an interview that I'm still pondering over. He basically said that his exec colleagues remind him that the commercial side make the revenues and the football operations team spends them. Now that might be true for NFL or the go-karting, but the reason our...

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

    Our job in the January transfer market is to buy the right players for the long term and we only have 31 days to do it. We delivered 3 new signings who, at this time, all look like they match that criteria. Of course, they might turn out to be duds but you have to roll the dice. I'm just not...

    What you say is the frustrating part. We've had so many full-backs who can't cross the ball. Now we have one who can, he is declining the opportunity. I'm not sure it is all on him though.

    Scott Munn

    I hope Levy remains brave in his decisions to evolve the executive roles at the club. What is interesting is that all the talk is about Munn, but why should the roles of Collecott, Cullen and Caplehorn not be totally questioned? They sit as board members and are involved in the club's key...

    Absolutely hated that when I was a home and away England fan in the past.

    ***OMT*** Tottenham...Thursday Night In Frankfurt

    I think there would have to be an adjustment to Porro's game though. He just cannot keep declining the right time to cross the ball. It is so frustrating. I would love Ange to tell these guys to get the ball in. Porro misses that golden moment 9 times out of 10 and just passes short or comes...

    Ange in or out?

    I've always thought that great football brains and great attitudes to your chosen profession gets you a long way. I bet Ange has a way of finding these characters in all the leagues he's managed. Where I've always pondered is whether the football brains at the PL level are pretty much the same...

    Ange in or out?

    Great post. Wasn't sure whether you were talking about Kaizen above or not. I remember that well. Was that eighties/nineties? I don't agree with the last bit though. In my opinion, good managers have a great system. However, great managers work at all times with what resources they have and...
