The away kits are fantastic, the haters are all just Boomers.The home whites are fantastic. The away and third kits are shit.
He’d bring a lot of pace tbfTrue. Jason dozzell would slot nicely in the current teams midfield & not look out of place.

can you name the 13 good players?I think we have a very good 13 players. Our manager is just poor. He’s not awful but he’s not going to improve the squad. Put in a top manager with this group of players and we are easily 5th in the league.
Its not the last 5 years though is it?
YesCan anyone give me a credible explanation of how we are going to consistently win games
Improve upon thatThe passing has been horrendous. Literally champo level.
The Jets and Falcons are at the same level in NFL as we are in football.Arguably the best stadium in world football and a team hoping for top 8 sounds odd but it will all make sense when the Jets and Falcons roll into town.
Are the both mid table shit as wellThe Jets and Falcons are at the same level in NFL as we are in football.
We have come full circle.
Ok.Its not the last 5 years though is it?

Question, did the club have to spend 1bn quid on a stadium?Jesus.
Do any of these numbers include the cost of building a stadium in that period? I’m not referring to the debt component which is fixed and paid over a long period, I’m referring to the equity. typically on these types of build there is a 25% to 30% equity component (banks won’t finance the whole thing). That is, THFC have to put in 25% to 30% of the project value (not just the construction value). ENIC made no loans for this equity component so this was funded by THFC - shirt sales, tickets, tv revenue, etc
You guys are looking at a 3-4 year period when Spurs made a major investment that will pay off over30-50 years. Is this whole forum full of brickies and milkmen? Does no one understand finance?
I bet half of the people who are angry about stupid shit online have not even been to a frigging game.
Ok some might say I am being optomistic but I truly can’t see there being any chance whatsoever of the current group being dragged into a relegation battle but the whole point of spending began what is a magnificent stadium was to eat at be very top table and here my realistic take on matters is that this group are a country mile from being in that positionThe most worrying aspect of it all though is I just cant see a way out for this squad.
Can anyone give me a credible explanation of how we are going to consistently win games by any competently achieving any of the following;
A) Press and not concede at the back?
B) Defend and play effectively on the break?
C) Play possession football and work the ball, break their lines and score?
D) Lump it up field and take our chances.
E) Any other recognised game plan?
We just look absolutely clueless at the moment. The passing has been horrendous. Literally champo level. No one believes in this team or this manager. I'm worried we are heading for a dark place. Because for all I don't believe they can do any of the above...... I am absolutely certain that they will not rise to a relegation battle, Not this lot.
I think we have about 8 good players, some massive cracks and not enough depth. We need quality either as depth or in our best 11.I think we have a very good 13 players. Our manager is just poor.
