    Hugo Lloris

    Hugo has pulled of a difficult trick there: criticising without sounding bitter, negative or classless. Good job from him. I thought this line was interesting: http://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/hugo-lloris-criticises-tottenhams-lack-3447220#ixzz2zkizwFQ0 That sounds to me like the...

    Jan Vertonghen

    Re: Super Jan Vertonghen Official If Jan goes to a Russian team managed by AVB he's even more braindead than I currently fear he may be.

    Champions League thread 2013/14

    Lahm, Alaba, Alonso and Modric have all been quality IMO.

    Champions League thread 2013/14

    Absolute joke that Lahm kicks the ball out there. Totally, totally ridiculous.

    I don't under-appreciate our squad at all - I think it's excellent. Don't think I've ever said otherwise, save for obvious problems at LB/CB that we all agree on. As a matter of interest, who are the non-red flag coaches you're referring to?

    Ah here, hang on, my point wasn't literally about bloody press releases. I wasn't talking about media management, I was talking about the underlying substance behind any press release/public pronouncements we'd have to make. And that underlying substance being: anyone who isn't LvG, CA, FSW or...

    That's pretty much exactly how I see it. And I think there's a very good chance it's the way Levy and the board will see it too. > Do Levy and the board really have the stomach to hand Spaletti or Pochettino their full faith, emotional commitment and transfer kitty, knowing in their hearts...

    Europa League - Round of 32: Fiorentina (ITA)

    Re: The Race for Europe/6th Place Thanks for that. So I guess we're cheering for Arsenal to win the Cup! Being back playing in July would be awful.

    The decision to fire AVB

    Excellent post NWND, pretty much exactly how I see it. I think your characterisation of the final meeting - "nervous glances" between DL and FB - gives a perfect flavour of how it probably went down - an awkward weirdness as it dawned on DL and FB that AVB was not the man for the job, and...

    I believe it was a mixture of in the middle and on the (narrow) left. Which is actually kinda what he's doing now for us - starting left on the team sheet but spending a lot of time in the middle, swapping around with whoever is there. IIRC, most of his goals this season have been from a more...

    Fergie: Retired, Moyes: Sacked, LVG/Giggs: The New Super Duo

    Re: Fergie: Officially Retiring - Moyes Taking Over, Now Sacked! I think they are waiting to see what happens with Ancelotti first.

    Paulinho

    Re: Official - Paulinho Article says he "stole the show" and was MOTM, which is seriously pushing it. But there's no doubt there were definite signs of improvement in product and application.

    Aye, that's basically it, especially absent a clear, compelling reason to bring someone in from outside, precisely as you set out in the rest of your post. :) I think from Levy's perspective, previous mistakes will weigh heavy on his mind. But yeah, maybe Spaletti is the one name on the...

    It's really a process of elimination. Strip out the impossible, and what's left is the possible. Doing that, I'm left with LvG or Sherwood to Spurs. > Ancelotti Before today, I held out hope we might have an outside shot at CA simply because he doesn't seem to like La Liga, Madrid or, for that...

    I really don't think that's the takeaway from that piece GB, because the article pretty much rules out Pep and Klopp as realistic contenders. The takeaway is that everything depends on Ancelotti. He's United's No. 1 choice, followed by LvG and Simeone. I think Simeone - doesn't speak...

    Yeah, "cigarette paper" was the wrong phrase to use. Referring back to the original post, my point was really that holistically speaking, when you add in every factor - including the effort of taking Pocc from SCBC and the trauma if he doesn't work out - the relative difference between making...

    Just to say, I wasn't trying to make a case for Sherwood, as much as I was trying to highlight how silly it is to have a serious conversation about Poccetino whilst making lolz at the idea of appointing Sherwood. Anyone who would want one of them appointed should at least be prepared to discuss...
