When was he rude to staff? What did he do? I missed that story
When you behave like he does, that's rude and out of order to everyone at the club...the owners, the board, the coaching staff, the medical team, your teammates...and the fans.

And it ain't just Spurs, he's had issues with Mali too. He got dropped as captain a year or so ago...think he wasn't even getting picked no more. Can't say he shone at this year's AFCON either, getting sent off stupidly and letting his team down...again. There were also attitude issues at Lille.

I'm just sick and tired of him...but mainly of the club not being decisive enough when faced with such bad apples. And before some on here say I'm not charitable, how many chances has he had?! But I guarantee you if he plays vs Spam and/or Burnley and does well, all will be forgiven for some and they'll say give him a new deal.

As for his alleged mental heath issues, I ain't buying it. I fully believe Richy has his troubles, but Biss is just using it as a cop out and a way to clean up his rep.

Ben Fucking Davies has shown exactly why he has been played recently. Its notable the balance he offers the team, and he should have been playing a lot more than he has been.

Udogie is perma-crocked, and so of course Spence has been used to cover him (especially as Davies was out too)

He has been selected for the national team, I think, because of this exact utility. Great for intl squads to have someone who can play multiple positions (and notable he isnt first choice, isnt it?)

Part of the reason Porro will be preferred at RB Ive already stated - he is much better going forward. That is what Ange wanted from a full back, and what Frank NEEDS from a fullback

Ive said also, I want to see him play RB more, Im just not seeing anything deeper than the obvious, thats all

We should have been buying a left back first week of the window. It’s arguably the weakest part of our team
 
My theory is he has a clause that when he is fit he has to play.

I also think his histrionics and poor form have more to do with Romero and Bentancur's new pay deals than anything else.

If Porro contractually has to play, and (deliberately chose) to give less than 100%, until he got better remuneration or a transfer, he is holding quite a strong hand.

Strongest evidence yet that the Spurs fanbase remains undefeated in the face of adversity and hasn't descended into Qanon levels of insanity instead remaining calm, rational and even handed about the difficulties we face. :cautious:
 
They are still shit at corners and without Mavropanos it will be Kilman and Todibo trying to cope. Nuno is virtually forced to play Soucek just to give the a chance at set pieces and he is one of the slowest players going these days.

In theory this should be a favourable match up for us, but my prediction remains 0-0
Fuck that. It better not be. Wasting 12 hours round trip if it is

:contesmell:
 
FIFA played , this time on the Xbox X as I’m in Blighty and I only have EAFC25

We absolutely twatted them 13-4, Johnson with a brace , Tel 3 , Deki 2 , Solanke 4 , Madders 2

Rather Disappointingly Kudus scored for them

Ange played a blinder tactically


:ange-arms2:
 
Vinny baby’s notes in tmw program is interesting, a lot of acknowledgment for we are not where we should be & that we have to change our wage structure

Lots of words but until it happens it’s just blah blah
 
Surely you win this or Frank is a goner do you lot think?

I'm hoping the double blow of Guehi and Glasner about to leave puts the Palace camp in a downer we take advantage of.

Do you lot hate Palace much?
