    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Absolutely. Employing one now is about 15 years too late! However, it's possible that the club did have one, or even a small team, who were bought in / consulting rather than being full time Spurs employees. I really hope that's the case, rather than us not having any at all. It would explain a...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur v Brighton, White Hart Lane, Sat April 18th, 5.30pm***

    Because whatever Ange was doing was deemed to be an absolute disaster long term and we needed to do something different. Rightly or wrongly, I can see that reasoning and so did a lot of others on here at the time. I will hold my hand up and say that I was absolutely delighted with the Frank...

    Seriously mate, are you even a Spurs fan if you have to make statements like that? OF COURSE we could fail to beat (or even lose to) the dire Wolves. That's just in our DNA. Mate ;)

    The one defender I'd usually trust to just boot it out. Typical. It's been all Brighton for the last few minutes.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Journalists being sensationalist? Whatever next?! But yes, some pragmatism would be great. There's a tune to be had from this squad, especially now that some of them are returning from injury.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    Just read this article on BBC Sport: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cvg3kxy221xo Given how the season has gone so far, I'm absolutely terrified of lines like these: We're fudged, aren't we?

    Also Ginger Pele plus anyone lucky enough to be partnered with him!

    You know, I miss the days of the "big man, little man" strike combinations. No matter how good peak DESK was, I'll still think back fondly on the days of Teddy and Sir Les :-)

    Luka Vuskovic

    While it's easy to get great defensive stats when you're in a lower-table team, he seems to be (literally) head and shoulders above the competition. What I particularly like is that he seems to be the type to identify shortcomings and actively deal with them. Employing an athletics coach to...

    Jesus, mate, don't spread it. Aussies have had their passports taken away for that sort of behaviour.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    I agree with the first bit, mainly because I've never bought into the theory that the crippling lack of transfers was purely down to Scrooge McLevy. Poch has to take some of the blame for failing to replace his ageing stars. My heart simply cannot countenance relegation being a good thing, however.

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    He may well have shut the door until the summer, hence the Tudor appointment. But with relegation now being a very real possibility, the club's #1 priority has to be avoiding that at all costs. The losses incurred by a season (or three) in the Championship far outweigh any release clauses or...

    Tottenham Hotspur Stadium - Licence To Stand

    Interesting. Up here in Manchester, the downturn in Manchester United's fortunes (and, no doubt, the brickness of their stadium) has resulted in lots of fans turning to local lower league teams instead – they get their football fix a lot cheaper and feel much more connected. It makes sense for a...

    ***OMT Tottenham Hotspur Football Club v Nottingham Forest***

    Richi, Tel, AND Solanke? 4-3-3? Or a slightly wonky 4-4-2? EDIT: Oh, of course it's a 3-4-3. Very attacking.

    Speaking as someone who took part in a penny farthing race a couple of years ago, those things are absolutely terrifying.
