    Levy's Plan

    A football agent that I trust told me a story that Baldini accidentally signed Benjamin Stambouli (he got the names mixed up and thought he was signing somebody else from Montpellier).

    Baldini?

    High press, man for man. Turnover the ball high and get players and the ball into the box early is one way. Mid block out of possession, long ball in possession is another. CMs job is just to run and tackle.

    Levy's Plan

    I think you’re the one playing dumb. I think he had complete control of how the club spent its revenue. Yes he had to operate within certain parameters (I.e. balance the books for the company he owned 30% of) but he still had sole control of a higher revenue and bigger wage and transfer budget...

    The "If we go down" thread

    In the last set of published accounts we had £337 of transfer debt and £852m of stadium debt, so close to £1.2b of total debt Against that we had £79m of cash and were owed £58m in transfer fees. That is an extremely scary amount of debt if we were to drop to the championship.

    Levy's Plan

    He had absolute power at THFC. He was the basically the sole decision maker at the club.

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    We were in 4th place the PL when Conte was sacked.

    Completely disagree with your first paragraph but agree with the second and third.

    I think he supports Daniel Levy.

    Looks like he has improved his link up play, which is good to see as that and his movement off the ball both needed a lot of work a year ago.

    You realise that Levy is one third of ENIC right?

    Levy's Plan

    I think where we are right now shows it was absolutely right to o get rid of Levy. He is the architect of this. If (when) we do go down then our huge stadium debt could see us go into administration if we don’t bounce back up first time.

    He WAS ENIC mate (30% of it anyway)

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    My thoughts are that the academy is putting an emphasis on producing winning youth teams instead of producing youth players that can be successful in the first team. I wonder if that is because those in leadership positions at youth level are judged on where there finish in the league/what...

    What was the trigger in our downward trend?

    The chairman stripping costs down to the bone in the recruitment department at the very time when we needed to be better informed and smarter than the rest of the PL. I think this happened because of horrendous overspend on the stadium chasing the illusion of an NFL franchise to boost the...

    The "If we go down" thread

    Good to see so many of you coming to your senses and getting on the train I boarded ages ago! I think, at present, relegation is more than 50% certain. If we can somehow beat Palace tomorrow then we probably move that back to a 50-50 coin toss. It is clear though that the rest of the...

    Remember that penalty against Bentancur...

    You tend to actually need to have touches in the opponents box to be awarded penalties. The only way we could earn penalties is from long throws, corners or our hoofs towards the far side of the box when we get free kicks anywhere in the opposition half (or even in our own half near the half...

    Igor the Interim

    If we're playing 3 at the back and wing backs then I would absolutely go with Souza. If we're playing a back 4 then I think I'd look to have another physical player in there so use VDV.

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    He's hardly going to say "I really don't care about the league, we're just going for the Cup" while the season is still going on is he?

    The Overlap - some interesting comments from Ange

    We kind of did. If you think we were playing the same gung-ho attacking football last season that we were the season before then we were seeing different things. As the season went on our football became less and less expansive. After the wins against Brentford and Man Utd, we were clearly...
