    Ange in or out?

    Every manager faces those difficulties. My post referenced the availability of our first choice defence in the context of chopping and changing. Precise words were "We haven't looked solid defensively even with our first choice defence available." Unsure where the lack of balance comes in. I...

    Ange in or out?

    Goal posts constantly being moved with Ange: "injuries mean he can't rotate - he doesnt have a deep enough squad" to "too much rotation is the issue". Beginning of the season we did not look solid and constantly made defensive mistakes leading to goals and dropped points. Leaving Vardy...

    Ange in or out?

    We haven't looked solid defensively even with our first choice defence available. We've conceded 14 goals in our last 6 matches, for example. Romero, VDV, Porro and Udogie all look completely clueless. As to Pochettino there were significant periods where he had to do without key defenders...

    Ange in or out?

    I mean I'm not sure we are even sacrificing anything the lowest we can finish is 17th and the highest we can realistically finish is 13th (the highest we can mathematically finish is only one place higher - 12th). The league season is as good as over and has been since it was clear we weren't...

    Ange in or out?

    There you go. Ultimately under Ange we invariably have to score to get at least a point and we invariably have to score at least twice to get a win and that's just not sustainable at this level.

    Ange in or out?

    Poch's team was founded on the defence. His peak seasons, our goals against column was: 15/16 = 35 A (joint best in the division) 16/17 = 26 A (best in the division by quite a few goals) 17/18 = 36 A (3rd best in the division)

    I guarantee you that what you've mentioned there is wholly insignificant compared to the utter pit of cess surrounding the main parties. Context: there's an arrest warrant out for a Labour MP related to an investigation into a huge international corruption investigation involving the Russians...

    I think they are undoubtedly a political earth quake. Yes, local elections are often where people register a protest vote, but that protest vote has not generally gone to new or fringe parties. UKIP, nor the Brexit Party never got near what Reform just got. For the first time Reform actually...

    Austerity isn't actually necessary right now. At least not to the extent it is being implemented. It was necessary from 2008 - 2018 due to the specific nature of the economic crisis and the need to inject liquidity back into the banking system (government borrowing takes liquidity out of the...

    The OBR do not provide advice to the government on economic policy. They provide independent analysis of the impact government policy will likely have on the economy and provide forecasts based on current policy. It's ultimately down to the government whether they adjust course based on their...

    OMT - The Sh1tmunchers Derby

    Any individuality is drummed out of players at a very young age. Watching my son even back to under 7s, they start off 3 v 3, starting positions, drilling shape and passing. If they try beat a player 1 v 1 they blow whistle and tell them to go back to starting positions.

    Whichever party came in 2024 has a job to complete in recovering the economy. I happen to think Hunt and Sunak were doing a fine job of it and market confidence in the UK was increasing. It's now back in the toilet. Not quite Liz Truss levels of "confidence is at the bottom of a portacabin...

    It'd have been like 1997 though, yes, there's rubble, but there money and resources to rebuild and say "hey we are the good guys after the bad guys". What they've got in 2024 is they're taking over from the demolition workers with a contract to complete the demolition work prior to rebuilding...
