    Cann we?

    Well, I guess we'll need 4th for CL then. On the up-side, Arsenal aren't going to win Big Cup and Emirates Marketing Project don't have to worry about fixture congestion.

    Manor Solomon

    I'm with you on that one. IIRC, Solomon has had just one injury since he signed for us. It's just that it was a fairly severe one and he's taking longer than expected to heal. I'm not going to label him as a sicknote just yet.

    Pape Matar Sarr

    gonad*s. Realised I'd forgotten Keane, decided to add Gerrard too, and didn't update the number.

    Pape Matar Sarr

    If he's half the player that Vieira was, we'll be doing well. Much as it pains me to say it, late-Vieira Arsenal was one of the best teams the Premier League has seen. He was one half of a 2-man midfield pairing that dominated Prem midfields, often playing against a 3. Is it fair to say that he...

    Radu Drăgușin

    Okay, I thought he was on just after the second goal, but it seems not. Subbed on at 49 minutes, 50 the first goal, 53 the second, 65 the McGinn red. Still, he'd have had a much tougher last half hour against 11 men.

    Radu Drăgușin

    You know, having seen a couple of interviews with Dragusin and seen how he (allegedly) conducted himself during his transfer, I suspect that he views that as a challenge -- to come in and do as well as VdV, maybe even take either his or Romero's place on merit. As people have said, he had it...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur vs Aston Villa ***

    Sure, Kulu looks ungainly (runs with a stutter!) and can be guilty of losing possession, but he's been involved in all three goals today.

    Timo Werner

    As someone said earlier, we've been thoroughly spoilt by Sonny and Kane these last few years -- get either of them 1-on-1 with the keeper and it's usually a goal. But they are both world class finishers. Going back to Keano and Defoe, it seems to me as though they'd mess it up a lot more than...

    Son Heung-Min

    I think the "problem" with Haaland is that he makes so many shooting opportunities himself by muscling defenders out of the way. Once he's clear, he's got a pretty high xG shot to put away. Whereas Sonny is generally a two-touch (or fewer) finisher, rather than driving forward to a more...

    Son Heung-Min

    I'm sure he is very proud of his achievements for his country, and rightly so. But at the moment, he's hurting. I can't even imagine what it's like to be the one that millions of people look up to, to make the difference between having a bad day and running through the streets in celebration...

    Guglielmo Vicario

    Why do one thing when we can do two? I'm sure Vicario is already working on things in training. But why shouldn't we do what Brentford are doing in that video and put a man on protection duty? One of the shorter players who wouldn't be a key defender anyway. I'm no expert on zonal marking, but...

    *** OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Everton FC ***

    Indeed. Much more chance of a late goal if you're going up to 98 minutes rather than 94. Including first half injury time, football matches are now getting played to 100+ minutes rather than 93-95. That's a significant leap, with players getting that much more tired and therefore that much more...

    Troy Parrott

    Yeah, that scoring record is good but not exactly prolific - not the sort that would make any of us look at him if he wasn't already a Spurs player. Unless he seriously kicks on in the next few months, time to sell on at a fair price, with a hefty sell-on clause.

    Spurs-related AFCON and Asia Cup chatter banter

    Given the pressure, that is an absolute worldie of a free kick.

    Also, put your house on Eric Dier signing for Bayern Munich. Yes, really.
