    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    Question for those familiar with Ange’s style of play. From what I understand he plays with a specialist sitting DM. Who in our squad is best suited to that role? Bentancur, Bissouma, Skipp are more box to box. PEH isn’t suited for that. Sarr would be great but it’s too soon. I guess we’ll...

    Sales

    I think the issue is that we get quoted a larger sum because we are an EPL club and they think we have money. And that’s perfectly fine. I also think it’s perfectly fine for us to negotiate this down rather than just pay whatever they want. Regarding sales, just because they’re undesirable to...

    They operate a different model. Their owner adds their personal wealth to the budget on top of what they make. I hope in time the new regulations will even things out more but I’m not holding my breath

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    I think the reason people thought he resigned (or instigated the ending of the contract) was because he flew off to Italy shortly after the press conference. There was a short break I think and when the non-international players returned for training Conte wasn’t there and Mason had to take it...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    Richarlison was our most expensive signing of the summer and he confirmed Conte contacted him to convince him to join: “Antonio Conte called me during the negotiations and expressed how much he’d like to have me on board – that was vital for my decision.” At least with this we can say it was...

    Welcome Ange: To Dare is to Didgeridoo

    I think PEH is likely to stay this summer as insurance for Bentancur whose initial return date is November. He’s back in light training already so may come back sooner but with Ange’s expected high intensity pressing game it might be a risk to rush him.

    Fair enough. Personally I prefer Kulu, Bentancur and Bissouma. But each to their own. On another note, I have really high hopes for Sarr. His potential ceiling is huge. With the right development and a bit of luck he could become a really good player and would be an astute clever under the...

    More rotation with Richarlison would have helped too.

    Daniel Levy - Chairman

    I see where you’re coming from and the points are valid. I guess the question is what would you like Levy to have done when presented with a difference of opinion between between DOF and manager? I think what you’re saying is he should have stayed out of it and let them both sort it out...

    New New Manager Poll (The Lets Get It Right This Time Edition)

    I think @alekaras is right tbf Nuno was on £7m per year. For context that would have put him as 6th highest this season in the league. Conte, Mourinho and Poch were also on big salaries. I don’t think Levy cheaps out on managers wages.

    The Immense Struggle to avoid the European Conference League

    Yeah and tbf I think we’d all like to be in Europe every year. The question though is if that’s what’s actually best for us right now based on where we are as a club. There are 3 things to consider: This team has a mentality problem and has shown an inability to deal with pressure. A season...

    Daniel Levy - Chairman

    Good question. The way I see it is that Munn is ‘working’ right now. The DOF reports into him and implements his vision, so in the interim I imagine he’s picking up some of the key responsibilities of that role. Just like any other business if a key director leaves, others step in. It ensures...

    Harry Kane MBE

    Interesting viewpoint and discussion. Personally I see the cups as the icing on the cake and the individual honours as the indication of how great you are as a player. In other words Kane has shown repeatedly how much better he is than his peers.

    Ryan Sessegnon

    Perhaps the issue is finding the right position for him. At Fulham I seem to remember he operated as LM/LWF, frequently getting into the box with excellent timing of his runs and finishing well. For us he’s been asked to operate more defensively. Also there’s been an expectation that he should...

    Webb says he doesn’t know why the deals didn’t go through. Tough to then conclude the decision was wrong

    ENIC

    Is it really that controversial? A chairman saying no to deals that aren’t value for money? The alternative being saying yes to deals that aren’t value for money. That approach will quickly see is run into difficulties. I think the happy medium would be a willingness to slightly overpay if...

    New New Manager Poll (The Lets Get It Right This Time Edition)

    I remember as a kid I wanted to buy some US sports merch because I thought it would be cool. I ended up buying a Yankees cap and an LA Raiders top for no particular reason other than I’d heard of them. The Raiders one was because of some association with a person that wasn’t even part of the...

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    Ajax CL semifinals? Also this season don’t we have the most points from losing positions? Still I agree with your general point though. Too many times we’ve shown a softness with our mentality across different managers

    Antonio Conte - officially NOT the coach of THFC

    On the face of it, this all makes sense. If this was his intention then why has he gone to Italy and not turned up for training this week? Ryan Mason has been taking training but you would think Conte would want to see a reaction from the players not on international duty at least

    Arnaut Danjuma

    I see it slightly differently. All transfers are a risk you never know if they’ll work out or not. The loan route serves 2 purposes, emergency cover and the ability to evaluate a player without the risk of a long term contract. The other thing to note, particularly with this whole club signing...
