    Sort of proves my point. I've only ever constructively criticised Davies during his time at Spurs and I've always praised him when he has put in a good shift. You won't change my opinion. Only Davies can do that, and he hasn't done it for years of me watching him. He's a decent player and a...

    No, "slagging off" is your narrative, not mine. I'm just calling what I've seen with my own eyes. I don't rate him and don't think he gets rated fairly either because of the makeshift tag. He gets away with mistakes that others simply don't because he is a good egg and popular with the fans...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa FC ***

    I thought he started at LB recently in EL. Then Ange swapped him and Gray during the match.

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa FC ***

    Davies also played against Villa last season in the November loss. They piled their big men forward for set pieces, ate Ben up and spat him out. He was incredibly ordinary against Watkins and Diaby in open play as well. Villa would be the last team I would put Davies in the line-up against...

    Davies should finally got judged as a centre half. He is forgiven so much because he is a good egg playing out of position. Trust me, being judged the same way as Romero, VDV and Dragusin won't work in his favour. It will be even worse the way Ange wants a high line and sprint recovery in open...

    LOL, we definitely took over from Arsenal at the top of the league for wasted salaries.

    Squad

    Yep, it's ridiculous that EFL clubs can have >5 loans but only have 5 in the match day squad. When Donley went there, he was the 4th in. Then on deadline day they signed Josh Keeley from us and a LB from Oxford. Out of the 6, they have 2 keepers and their only other keeper is 19 from what I can...

    I would think there is a gap between the Son and Rice salaries before bonuses. Havertz earns even more as their highest earner. My instinct that the on target earning (base + salary) of the top Arsenal earners is still higher. Logically, our revenues are similar but Spurs have the stadium...

    Exactly, but when it peaked in 2017 we were subject to a very minimal net spending. Players were getting older and we needed to refresh the squad. We couldn't because of where we were on our journey. My point is that if we can get this squad back up to the 86 points mark in the PL, then we can...

    You sense this could be an important few weeks for Dragusin. It was on Monday, 6th November 2023 when VDV got injured in that now famous Chelsea match. We didn't have Dragu at the time and we then saw the club get 1 point from 15 including the Chelsea match. Can this time be different with...

    I guess the question I would ask is should an employee have a bank account, and should an employer be forced to pay that employee online? Should customers also pay companies (sole traders or limited) online rather than with cash? In a world where we cannot impact too much on the big 3 - income...

    Have you thought about the the big changes we see all the time, prior to trophies? Poch got 64 points in his first season, and only climbed to 70 points in the season season. He inherited the fantastic 7 - Hugo, Walker, Rose, Verts, Dembele, Eriksen and Kane. He bought Davies, Dele and Dier to...

    They all are but we cannot let the clock start from 18 months ago. It just doesn't work that way. (not saying you were btw, but some fans do). Poch's 3rd season was the 16/17 season. Just as we've had new signings in this current squad from about the 21/22 season, so did Poch. The signings of...

    The irony here is that when we got 86 points and finished 2nd, this was the squad: Lloris, Vorm, Lopez Walker, Rose, Trippier, Davies Toby, Jan, Wimmer, CCV, Dier, Wanyama, Dembele, Winks, Eriksen, Dele, Lamela, Sissoko, Onomah, Nkoudou Kane, Son, Janssen Does it sound familiar that we didn't...

    When there is £2m TV prize money between every place in the PL, you. can see why. Just in one season the winners of the PL get £32m more than the 17th place team. When you look at the compounding effect of multiple seasons, you can see why the top 6 can keep buying themselves back into the race...

    Great question. He's not slipped back into the U21 line-ups from what I can see.

    Oh, I see where you're coming from. I only meant age diversity, that's all. Nothing vile, at least in my head and I'm not related to Bentancur. Metal gear stated "age diversification" in the post I was answering to on succession planning, so I just used his language. Make sense? Saying that...

    Yeah, but Son is 5 years older. He has Johnson, Yang, Moore, Odobert etc as his diversity Solanke and Richi have Scarlett, Lanks, Veliz and the other younger strikers as their diversity. The subtle difference is that Son's successors are active in the first team. It's interest that our number...

    My words were "live in hope". Well an example is Zuckenberg in the Senate a few years back. It became very clear in that high profile exchange that retrospective action will be taken by governments on the big tech companies if they don't start taking a bigger moral and social responsibility...
