    LMS 15/16 - Champion: jts1882

    OK, Chelsea this week. The have to win sometime, right? And if they don't... I'll be too busy laughing to be worried about LMS.

    A worrying trend?

    I'm guessing you missed the Swansea game? Not saying Eriksen will score two free kicks in one game any time soon again. But clearly "once a game" is not "at best".

    Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

    Unless Doctor Who is a board-member, it's unlikely... given that the meeting hasn't happened yet (7pm this evening).

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Saudi Sportswashing Machine OMT ***

    Apparently I'm one of those ****s. And frankly today demonstrated (to me) that we should be rotating a bit more. Resting a couple of players and bringing in fresh legs with something to prove? I think we might have won today if we'd done that. But it's all just opinions, right?

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Saudi Sportswashing Machine OMT ***

    I'm not talking about giving some players a rest for one single midweek home match. This isn't about the Monaco game... I'm talking about a more general philosophy. I still do not understand why Kane (and others) flew out to Azerbaijan for example. Again - to reiterate - I'm a huge fan of...

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Saudi Sportswashing Machine OMT ***

    For what it's worth. And this is just my opinion. We dropped three points today because of a lack of squad rotation. The team looked dead on their feet by the 70 minute mark. I'm a big Pochettino fan, and I want him as our manager for years to come. But he needs to start using the squad more.

    Euro 2016 Warm Up Thread

    Crap. The chance of Ireland qualifying from the group stages was always going to be slim, no matter what the draw. But Belgium, Italy and Sweden? That's just unfair!

    *** Tottenham Hotspur v Saudi Sportswashing Machine OMT ***

    Given his constant work-rate, the knock he picked up on Thursday and the busy Christmas schedule, I would rest Dier this week. He's rapidly becoming an essential part of our team and I really don't want him to burn out. My team... -------------------------------- Lloris...

    The Official 2015/16 Premier League Thread

    I thought he held the ball up very well and provided a solid outlet for Palace during a 20 minute period of the 2nd half when they were under the cosh. I also thought his passing was excellent, as was his positional sense. Another case of the subjectivity of sports I guess.

    Saido Berahino

    Fair play. I didn't realise that had happened so late. That said, I think it's wildly optimistic to imagine that a loan (even a loan-to-buy) for Lamela* would have "balanced the books" on a 20m+ transfer. On this issue, I honestly believe Levy is likely to be more flexible with Pochettino than...

    I love the book. Am a bit wary that the TV series will miss the point.

    The Official 2015/16 Premier League Thread

    Thought the first half was a bit dull, but the second was enjoyable. Bolasie was excellent for Palace and Lukaku should have scored four. Good result for us in the end... means there's a little gap starting to open directly below us. Let's see if we can increase it over the next few weeks!

    Saido Berahino

    Well aware that we've had a zero net spend for quite a while. Pretty sure that's common knowledge. What I'm suggesting is that Levy is willing to make exceptions to that policy in specific circumstances to accommodate Pochettino. He appears to have a great relationship with the manager and - in...

    Saido Berahino

    I would agree with that if Berahino was genuinely only "a marginal improvement" on Chadli. But as a striker the Berahino of last season would be a huge improvement over Chadli. And he'd probably be a marginal improvement as a wing-forward. If we'd landed Berahino at the last minute (as seemed...

    The all new Striker thread..

    Bringing a 34 year old in ahead of Kane would be madness right now. And - IMO quite rightly - we will never pay Zlatan-sized wages for a guy to be second choice (at best "in rotation for first choice"). His pay demands would make Adebayor's look sane. We'd have a handful of wonder goals for...

    Serious relegation fears

    I actually feel more like we "dropped points" against Chelsea than West Brom... we lacked a cutting edge in both games, but you have to give a lot of credit to West Brom (IMO) - they played a disciplined defensive game and it worked for them. Chelsea on the other hand felt like they were totally...

    Milos Veljkovic

    Well, as I've said; I have seen him 6 or 7 times - each time paying close attention to his individual contribution. In my view, that's enough to get a sense of a player and whether he has potential (not if he'll fulfil that potential, but whether or not it's there). You might disagree, and...
