    Compromise and conformity are two different words. I believe compromise is always the way forward. Conformity leads to bitterness and eventual fallout whatever the situation. IMO.

    Yes he was. I agree. And have said so MANY times here back in those times. I know you would not have seen those. His laziness to take up the various fights and debates necessary in Brussels and beyond (using the vague notion that if there were no referendum, the far-right would get serious power...

    Who said anything about being 'dim' or 'uneducated'? If that is what you solely extrapolate from the word 'manipulation' then that is yours to own. For someone who rallies so hard about how the opinions of others are consistently an 'attack', your repeatedly defensive and hostile posturing...

    You know, I consider Nigel Farage to be the person who has created the current global situation we find ourselves in. He showed that you could, in fact, succeed with a set of metrics others had thought impossible even by previously extreme political standards...taken dispassionately, Brexit was...

    Politics, politics, politics (so long and thanks for all the fish)

    It was an individual choice brokered off the back of limited knowledge, the refusal of people to accept that whatever you might want you cannot just 'take it' (i.e. there are systems and -however undesirable one might find them- protocols in place), generational anger at past horrors done to...

    I first complained about the way in which Southgate was'adapting' Dele back at that time. To accommodate Lingard/an extra attacking player. Had he played Dele in his natural position, I think we could've won the whole thing. In many ways it marked the start of something which is now...

    If you're honest, you'll read back the posts you've written on Kane and admit that you are blaming him for (as you have put it) not giving his all in various situations. Thus why I responded with a list of 'blamees'. I am not sure if it is your point or @Bedfordspurs , but the rest of what...

    American politics

    Yes. Which, by the way, you didn't answer directly. Instead you told me about the Iranians you know. So I thought I'd share one of the Iranians I knew. Again, I dislike making assumptions and try not to (strike rate of about 60% there LOL but better than it used to be!) so I have PM'd you a...

    With regards to Kane I think it was a combination of preservation and tactics. I think you're suggesting he hid at times; I vehemently disagree. The Eriksen point is really interesting and I must say I can absolutely see what you're saying there 100%. Dele's a little different for me in so much...

    OK, this Kane business. Blame the club. Blame Mourinho. Blame Conte. They're the ones who essentially set us up to feed Kane primarily, Sonny as well albeit not to the degree of Kane. You talk about Poch; Poch was the one who had a team, built a team, and made sure we produced from all sorts of...

    ENIC

    Fair enough, cannot argue with that, that's a pretty clear example. I hope Catholics weren't offended by Fulham's omission of the crucifix.

    I have to say, I will always find your agenda against Kane bordering on breathtaking. As for Eriksen/Sissoko, are you trying to say you think over-accomodation of Sissoko led to Eriksen becoming ineffective because he was covering for Mousa all the time? That is distinctly not how I remember...

    Roberto De Zerbi *OFFICIAL*

    No mate, we just endured one of the most risk-averse and timid managers in our history, someone who actually sapped that sort of instinctual movement and bravery out of the players. They have had the confidence battered out of them. That's been absolutely clear to the eye-test. It really is that...
