The CEO is listening to his DoF…. As he should be.

The CEO may of course appoint a new DoF this summer. If we do then I hope the CEO continues to let the DoF make the football decisions.

Palhinha may not be a perfect midfielder and lack the quality we see in others but in most of the games I've seen him play he is trying to hold the team together with his effort and experience. I think we've missed that in games and he has set better leadership qualities than we have seen from our captains. At Fulham I always thought he's a walking red card but he's been very controlled here, sort of player I wouldn't want to play against but like him in my team.

I think Palhinha is an elite player at what he does, he gives a brick and we would be mad not to buy.

What I think most people haven't circled on, is that side yesterday had Danso, Porro, Bentancur, Palhinha, Gallagher, Richi, by choice or by realization, that's 6 of our most senior players, all of which will run themselves into the ground for the right manager. and they all set the tone.

Another very important aspect of yesterday's game, for me, was that we often looked like we had an extra player compared to Villa. Of course, they were probably more interested in their upcoming game with Forest while we were fighting for our lives, but we often had two or three players pressing for the ball and when they won the ball back, they had options around them to get out of the opposition's press. It's a major improvement in terms of mobility from Frank's team.

Either that or the yellow shirts made us more visible.

I'd also say yesterday Spurs had a "feature" I haven't seen in a long time, we looked like the kind of team you don't want to play against, Villa was suffocated in that first 60 minutes, no tea wants to play against that. Even when we were a good team, we had moments of being open or easy to play against. RDZ has us looking like one of his sides, awful to play against, pressing, intensity, traps.
