    Putin & Russia

    Not to mention peace is a good thing. Not killing young lads is a good thing - seems lost on most. Not turning a nation into a waste land likewise.

    *** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v AZ - 6.3.25 ***

    Without Romero and VDV we are compromised. Not pushing up as highly and compacting the space.

    *** OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v AZ - 6.3.25 ***

    I guess the question is: what would other managers have achieved missing both CBs and starting teenagers? I don’t think even the best mangers would have done that well. And there is some silver lining in seeing Spence, Gray and Bergvall come through. The issue for me is the press and how open...

    Elon Musk buys twitter (again)

    The UK government bought a potential competitor. I think it’s part owned by an Indian concern but the low level satellites aren’t orbiting. Which must be a requirement!

    We do forget that we played four teenagers tonight. That’s a lot of inexperience. The team shape and coordination is lacking. No one looked in tune with each other.

    He’s rarely a leader though. He plays off others but isn’t the man to standup and dictate the play. He’s best playing off Maddison for example.

    Kulu, Madison, Romero, Bentancur, Solanke are our more experienced players, who you need away in Europe. We had Bentancur and 60 mins of Madison. We looked like a team of kids and players lacking leadership which is what we were. There are issues beyond the lack of senior players. Our shape...

    We have played 4 teenagers. But the lack of confidence in our shape. The lack of coordination in our press and the way it actually helps the opposition opening up space for them. These things are not good enough. I could see Levy act now if there was someone semi retired who could come in for...

    Only real mitigation is we’ve played 4 teenagers. And we are still missing our first choice CBs. What annoys me most is our sprinting uncoordinated press that leaves players free and opens up space for the opposition.

    Can we sack the manager mid-game?

    We throw away possession so often with missed easy passes.

    Out passing has not been good enough. Prefer Poro and Spence at LB

    Only player to run into and through them, jink, and make a valid opening at the end of the half.

    We need to show them less respect in attack. Only Maddison has done that so far. The rest a little timid. AZ are Championship quality. But we have 3 teenangers playing, and should be patient.

    I genuinely think it has as much to do with people’s aging and a lament for their youth. But nevertheless it should act as a warning of what is there in everyone - we can all be prejudicial. And we have to consciously act against it most of the time. An exception might be football, where you can...

    Yet it is more cathartic and useful that someone is honest about it. So much of what was said is hidden by most. It is there in all of us to some degree - people classify and stereotype things everyday and everywhere. But when it’s hidden there isn’t anything to work with. People being open...

    It is also fascinating how many of the most fervent Brexit backers were born and lived abroad. As it led to a romanised vision of England. The core architects of Brexit were ex-pats which is quite fascinating. They grew up with their parents colonial style patriotism, and it resonated with...

    Whilst I agree wholeheartedly re what might be called identity politics, I think what your post so honestly highlights - for the good - is how deep seated racism is. Humans are inherently racist. We classify. We stereotype. But we also have social norms, philosophy, societal standards which can...

    Okay so, we should let in Asian and black peoples but have a 1 out policy. And these ‘outs’ would be white. I’m simply applying the base logic of the right to the evidence. Of course such an idea is nonsense, as are the cries from those who slip into xenophobia. I do understand how populations...
