Ignore his bias.
Challenge his bias.
His posts are fair enough.
His opinion is as valid as anyones.
Different opinions are OK.

“Ignore his bias”
What bias? Is that not true? Our 3rd top scorer this season .. wow that sounds reasonably impressive, till you break it down.
The manager doesn’t rate him. I guess he’s “biased” too. Or maybe he just sees a passenger as well.
I’m not against selling Brennan but there are 2 worse wingers
Prob no offers for them

I agree.
The poster and I have bounced different thoughts.
Views only change through persuasive evidence or change of position.
To go round in circles on a point with anybody is wasted energy, although once every so often that's still what I do.
Late sub against tired legs?
Main problem with Brennan is that he is not a winger. Does not have a trick to beat a defender. His strength is finishing but under the current system he never gets into the middle so he can finish. Would do ok with Palace because he would be in Sarr position as one of 2 number 10s behind Mateta. Anywhere around 35-40m I would sell him. Might be a bad move for him if he did go because their manager almost certainly leaving in the summer, contract up and not signing another at the moment . System would likely change if he left.
1 more than superstar Xavi, and 2 more than Kolo Muani
One more than a 10 who has clearly badly struggled to adapt and has been a huge flop and 2 more than a guy who we wondered if he even existed for most of the season. Wowzer.
The same as Palhinha I assume.
yet they are the ones getting the minutes
Because they can play football outside of goals
How many points do you get for that?
Are you implying that footballers who don’t score don’t contribute to goals happening? Play 11 Brennan Johnson’s and see how many goals you score.
I guess Zidane was terrible - didn’t score as many goals as Brennan. Brennan scored more than Yamal last season, I wonder who is better??
You get points by scoring goals but it’s a team sport and brennans contribution to goals is 2 yard tap ins.
Did you forget what you were arguing about?
You've made your own argument here:
- Brennan does score goals, and more than RKM and Xavi who are in the team ahead of him
- But it's okay that they don't score, because there's more to football than that
- Meanwhile, we're losing games without Johnson and not scoring goals
Weird how we won a Europa final with the thing that Brennan does, rather than whatever the fuck everyone else was doing
He’s scored 2 league goals in 13 games. That isn’t nearly enough to make up for his total lack of doing anything elsewhere. That’s why he’s been dropped to the bench. It’s also why Wales benched his ass for a while. Simon’s and RKM don’t score much but their technical ceiling & what they can offer mean they get games.
We lost games with Johnson too. In fact we finished 17th. The fact he existed at the back post and a ball bobbled off him doesn’t make him good. Djimi Traore started and won a CL final. Big deal. United were shit last season!
He’s a fucking shit player who will end up an impact player wherever he goes unless he drops down a league. Deal with it.
BJ needs to get more game time!
Kudus, such a frustrating player, and for the most part hinders over overall game

Time for BJ to get a run out.
At least he guarantees you a 17th place finish.

People say Frank wanted Johnson when he was at Brentford but, to your point, there's been not much sign of that at Spurs.
