Kentucky fried apples?Maybe if he had stuck to apples we'd have won the fuckin league.
But your life isn’t football. His is,always has,loves the game and wants to do it. What the fuck is wrong with that? How anyone can be the slightest bit bothered by this and looking for a reason to have a pop is embarrassing.
They approached him, along with the BBC. He didn't seek anything.
What does he give FULL focus to, the empty changing room while they're all away on international duty?
Give it another coat because the paintwork is looking a little jaded?
SU could have scored 3! Alarm bells should be ringing!Our "totally risk averse" defense last season was Lloris, 3 from Dier, Sanchez, Romero and Davies with Royal at RWB and either Sess or Peresic at LWB
Our defensive unit, even when Romero played was like watching the 3 stooges most of the time. If Dier wasn't playing opposition attackers through on goal, we had Lloris throwing it in his own net or Sanchez getting booed off the pitch after the worst 20 minute cameo in PL history.
This season we've had a keeper that I believe made no errors leading to goal all season, 2 top quality CB's at the top of their game, and pretty useful FB's. And we still conceded almost as many goals. I would, on paper at least, expect the current unit to concede 15-20 goals less over a season than we did tbh.
Half the time! Cuti was out for 3 games from red then I think he got injured for one game or so. I’m sure he hasn’t been missing much. Porro and destiny like wise. Only VDV was longer around 2.5 months.We also had 4 FBs playing in a back 4 half the time and Royal having to play LB pretty often.
That’s before you ignore the excuse not taken of 3 of the back 5 playing their first prem season and Porro converting to a new position
This! If the FBs are inverted up field then this is what happens. It’s purely the tactics and system. Our defensive coach have worked on nothing other than VDV bailing us out.I think we conceded as many as we did because we played wide open football with little regard for defense.
It's as simple as that. Park our players in the opposition half and we invite teams to play a quick ball behind and catch us out. Which they did. A lot. And then expose our inability to defend set plays.
The transfer market and ensuring that we don’t buy any more duffers like Johnson and Werner?
Could be wrong but isn't that Johan's role?The transfer market and ensuring that we don’t buy any more duffers like Johnson and Werner?
It's amateur, naive defending, if the manager is determined to succeed in this league, that will resolving as a matter of urgency.This! If the FBs are inverted up field then this is what happens.

Yeah football people live and breathe the game.I’ve been lucky enough to meet quite a few coaches.
After giving up their time to do a training season they will go out for a meal too and just talk football.
It’s mental that a place where people come to talk about football can’t get their head around the fact pro coaches just literally live for the game.
Tbh I think the whole place is fully autistic.
What a very silly, uninformed post.Honestly, the guy is a bigger wideboy than Redknapp and thats saying something. LOVES waggling his arse for the media. It’s all a bit cringe. Iv never seen a manager talk so much about himself yet achieve so little. Atleast Redknapp earned his stripes and had been in the top flight for decades and earned that bit of limelight, and is actually funny. Guys been in top flight football less than a year and is already booking punditry gigs. If he was a seasoned manager in his 4th season with the club youd say okay fine enjoy yourself., But not when youve just finished ur first season with the club where you pretty much tanked the second half of the season and then wet ur pants at spurs fans during a game.
Honestly dont like nor trust the guy. Dude thought he had won the league mid season and was gassing himself up for the Liverpool job, tells me all I need to know.
I assume it's satire? must be, no one could be that dumb
No he wasn’t. You’re talking shit. You actually honestly think he was gassing himself up for the Liverpool job??? You made that up in your head and you think it’s true.Honestly, the guy is a bigger wideboy than Redknapp and thats saying something. LOVES waggling his arse for the media. It’s all a bit cringe.
