    *** The Official 'No OOMT for Sheriff?' OMT ***

    Fergie and Guardiola. Entertaining football has nothing to do with the old days. Yes Mourinho and Mancini won the title in recent seasons playing some of the most turgid football, but they also were in charge of bankrolled teams. The other two teams that have been mega successful in the...

    Going backwards

    If we had stifled them to no chances, then I'd agree. But we got away with it. That was no masterplan.

    Going backwards

    That last statement is a contradiction. It was our desire to dominate that cost us in the first half. They were pressing leaving gaps behind them, but rather than try and play the ball quickly behind them we tried to be patient and ended up playing ourselves into trouble time and time again...

    *** The Official 'No OOMT for Sheriff?' OMT ***

    That's because he hires a Manager and then interferes. And because he wants a big name Manager. What he really should do is hire one of Rodgers, Hoddle or Redknapp and stick them in charge. He'd have his entertaining team then, and with the money at their disposal I don't doubt they'd be...

    I will refer you to the great Danny Blanchflower. We aren't the Arsenal of old or Chelsea under Mourinho. Winning under those styles means **** all, despite what the idiots that support those clubs think.

    It wasn't an attack. You are AVB's biggest champion on this forum, so I can understand why you are continually sticking up for him even though, in my opinion, the evidence points to the contrary on a lot of things. Does it take time for a Manager to come in and change the playing style ethos...

    I know you are AVB's biggest champion, but the same thing happened at Chelsea. Chelsea under AVB, poor to watch. Chelsea under RDM? Exciting to watch. The basic truth is AVB doesn't set his team up to entertain. He may try to pretend otherwise, but his strategy is the same of Mourinho's...

    Wenger also allows his plays freedom to express themselves. AVB prefers a much more tactical unit with players who don't deviate from their instructions too much.

    *** The Official 'No OOMT for Sheriff?' OMT ***

    Agreed. It amuses me how people often claim other teams park the bus against us. The reality is most of the time they don't. The reality is that our approach play is so laboured that we allow teams to get back into a defensive shape, and because we don't play with any great width we can't get...

    *** The Official 'No OOMT for Sheriff?' OMT ***

    The results HAVE been flattering us though, and that is why there is concern. If a team continues to play well and not get the rub of the green, then sooner or later the results turn positive. The opposite is also true. Our performances have to improve considerably if we are serious about...

    *** The Official 'No OOMT for Sheriff?' OMT ***

    Playing a few youngsters against this opposition may have been the best tactic. They'd want to impress and show some urgency. I look at this XI today and now Dawson is on, it's not that far removed from our strongest XI. Soldado, Walker, Rose and Townsend are missing, and that's it (Paulinho...

    Thank GHod we are playing a very poor team, otherwise we'd be getting hammered here. AVB needs to sort out this high line, because they are getting in time and time again. Eriksen a shining light, but still not in the game enough. Good run out against weak opposition for Lennon to get his...

    It never ceases to amaze me how two people can watch the same game and have a completely different impression of it!

    The "Official" 2013/14 Other teams matches thread

    Pretty much this. Much is made of the vaunted partnership between Berbatov and Keane among my fellow Spurs fans, but it actually wasn't a very good partnership at all. Berbatov on his day can make any of his strike partners look excellent but in reality him and Keane rarely linked up well with...

    Fergie's book

    "He tells the story of the great Dave Mackay going “right through” him in a game between Queen’s Park and Hearts Reserves, where Mackay was making a comeback from injury. Not daunted by this brutal early softener, Ferguson retaliated, only to be asked by Mackay, coldly: “Do you want to last...

    Ignoring the Other Team

    If that is the case then AVB needs to start reading quotes from our halcyon days and at least try and have us attempting a Tottenham style of play. As demonstrated by our second goal yesterday (ironically from a long ball originally), the Tottenham way CAN work.

    Roberto Soldado

    Re: Official - Soldado Can we dare ask you why not? His link up play is excellent (certainly better than Adebayor and Defoe) and his movement is by far the best out of our strikers. And I don't doubt he is a bitter finisher also. So what about him is it you don't like?
