    For someone who prided himself in taking responsibality for everything, he's quick to blame others for his failures. Wonder what he's got to say about his time at Forest...

    Igor the Departed

    I don't follow Italian football enough to know whether that's still the case, but when Tudor was playing there, managers were highly respected people. Truth be told, I don't think he was too impressed with our players and our club culture which, at this point, was paradoxically closer to what...

    Charles' (or Wayne's, in this case) conversation was flat as a sidewalk, a place of passage for the ideas of everyman; they wore drab everyday clothes, and they inspired neither laughter nor dreams. (Madame Bovary, believe it or not)

    João Palhinha

    Same for me. Nobody deserves it on the course of the whole season anyway but Palinha, despite having objectively less reasons to care than most of our players, scored the goals that kept us up. Just look at Kolo Muani - who's way more talented as a football player -, think about what would have...

    Whatever happens, I probably won't be posting on here until Sunday night or Monday but I'd like to echo @harr1984's sentiment: this place has been one of the few bright spots in a season absolutely riddled with disappointment and, sometimes, despair. I'm a very occasional poster if not a lurker...

    Cristian Romero

    To be honest, he did a lot more damage when he (apparently) turned up late for training in my opinion. He's a quality player (although I still think he'd be a much better defensive midfielder) and I share some of his comments about the owners but at this point, he's as good as gone, and that's...

    I don't think anyone who supports this club will have a nice weekend, at least until 6pm on Sunday. Everton and Leeds are in a similar situation; there's very little to separate us from West Ham. We will start the match with a huge advantage, now it's up to the players to show that they deserve...

    I'd say the reaction to De Zerbi's first few games tells you all you need to know: everyone felt relieved. I wasn't into Postecoglou at all, but you can tell that despite finishing 17th, he will go down in the club's history as a much more beloved manager than Thomas Frank or Jose Mourinho...

    Many West Ham fans probably feel the same. Up until Wolves, they had momentum and we were going nowhere. The truth is, there's next to nothing to separate our teams. We're both very poor, for different reasons. Maybe they'll pull it off but, again, we hold all the cards at the moment. If we go...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea, Tue May 19th, 8.15pm, Stamford Bridge ***

    Think of it that way: would you rather be in our situation or in West Ham's? Out of the six possible results on Sunday, there's only one that leads to West Ham staying up. We might blow it - and I still think it would be a disaster for the club - but I've made my peace. When you play Russian...

    Let's hope the players have cooler heads than the majority of us on here! It's a shame we couldn't get the job done tonight but, more than ever, we remain in control of our destiny. West Ham have to win. They are very capable of that, but that's not a given either. Many people thought they'd...

    The we are staying up thread

    When you think about it, it's incredible to think that 80 minutes into the Wolves game, we looked as good as done and now we're one point away from safety. Let's not count our chickens but if we do survive, I really hope it will be a wake-up call and people within the club will use that horrible...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea, Tue May 19th, 8.15pm, Stamford Bridge ***

    It's the best result we could hope for, but I'll relax once that last point is in the bag. Anything could still happen, but the West Ham players must be massively disappointed after such a result. More than ever, it's up to us to finish the job.

    It's not looking very likely though as FIFA keeps on tweaking the rules (Wenger in particular). They obviously want to bring football closer to American sports, while using the controversy and so-called 'drama' to sparkle online debate. As far as I can tell, they either don't care about what's...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds United, Mon May 11th, 8pm, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium***

    The problem is that margins have become so thin in the PL that refereeing calls/mistakes can be the difference between safety and relegation or being champions/runners-up. Over the course of the season, there's very little to separate us from West Ham and yet one club will be playing in the...

    https://www.standard.co.uk/news/politics/sadiq-khan-west-ham-tottenham-spurs-taxpayers-london-stadium-b1281935.html You have got to be kidding me. When there's already a huge debate on refereeing, it's not a very clever move for the London mayor to go out of his way and basically say 'it would...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds United, Mon May 11th, 8pm, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium***

    It's hard not to feel down after last night, but we remain in the driving seat. Chelsea fans hate us, so it will be another test of the team's character. I really wished it hadn't come to this but like someone mentioned earlier, the injury after our goal sort of knocked the rhythm out of the...

    ***OMT - Tottenham Hotspur v Leeds United, Mon May 11th, 8pm, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium***

    Tonight, we will know if the win at Villa was down to their schedule of if we have really turned a corner. Only thing that bothers me is that we still have to win and Leeds have been doing extremely well for the past two months. I'd feel fairly confident of a draw, but they have a lot of...

    From what I gathered of De Zerbi's football, you need a goalkeeper who's good on the ball and who's fast enough to play in a sweeper-keeper role, a la Neuer. Being good on the line is a bonus. Pickford is a quality keeper but I'm not sure he fits that bill, although I'm sure we'll be able to...
