Carragher actually talks quite a bit of sense which is easy to miss with that accent.
The Sky pundits in general are actually quite good, you Brits don't know how good you have it, you should see some of the morons we have to deal with over here.
Try listening to Scottish pundits if it’s morons you are looking for
Absolutely right. Reasons to be cheerful - not writing us off.
Well put. Thanks
Here you go - one example of what I mean. I’m a monkeys uncle if this is a proper spurs supporter.
Supports more teams than I have cars. Now I’m off to earn some coin. Have a good day!
“IMO he likes a striker who is relatively quick, aggressively presses, runs into space/behind defenders and can one touch finish low crosses.

Don't recall the last time we've had a manager that was so clear and open about his plan for the squad.
I think we'll get absolutely battered a few times this season, but doubt he'll shy away from it, or come up with some vague excuse.
He said we didn't create enough against Brentford. Loco and Solomon were unused subs !!
I agree and I really wanted Nagelsmann.
I like everything AP is doing. From his football to press conferences to the way he is dealing with Kane going, he's just what this club needs, no sulking, no excuses, just get on with it.
To be honest, Brentford were very organised and set up very well against sides trying to do what we were trying to do.
I re-watched the game yesterday they were so compact.
Kulu and Son will be better in other games but that isn't to say they won't be replaced.
There's a reason that Brentford have only lost twice at home in the last two seasons. They are incredibly solid defensively and fully willing to soak up pressure.
I do like Carragher, only downside is the weird bromance he has with that fucking Weasel Garry Neville. Having said that I do like the Overlap interviews but as a pundit he's a fucking whiny sanctimonious United shill, and I'd rather someone else presented that show.
Do you like the way he spits at people in the street ?
Eh, hardly covered himself in class with that incident but to be honest I'm more fed up with these twats who wind up celebrities on camera in the street trying to bait a reaction, they'd never be brave enough to front it up face-to-face with the camera switched off and no mates around to witness, so resort to cowardice. Note the twat driving the car was more than happy to put his daughter in the firing line so he could score a bit of "bantz" for his instagram.
EDIT: what's that age old expression, "chat shit get banged"?
You might be fed up with baiters but there is no defending or deflecting from what Carragher did. You said you like him?
I'm no Carra fan and think what he did was disgusting but there will be plenty that like him despite that incident.
I don't think any of us would like to be judged by our worst moment which is what you're advocating.
Remember what Daddy Ange says...don't tell people how to feel!
Maybe Postecoglou will do everything his fans say but how does anyone know at this point if his tactics will transfer to the Premier League? All this "Big Ange" stuff is good PR by a coach intelligent enough to play to the crowd. "Big Ange won't put up with Levy", "If they don't get on board Big Ange will run them off", "Players will run through walls for "Big Ange". The reality is Postecoglou will work well with Levy because he's willing to do things on the cheap. Probably was happy enough to see Kane off because he didn't fit his system. As for getting rid of players, how is that going to work? You have to sell them first and thatThings are different with Ange - forget what’s gone before for Spurs, forget Kane, forget any problems that have previously held you back.
I really don’t get the pessimism of not getting fully on the Ange-bus.
Get carried away because ANYTHING is possible with this man - I know I sound like a crazy brainwashed moron but it’s true.
Believe me, at some point you will get it and you will believe you can win the CL with him.
There is a reason the Aussies, Japanese and now the Celtic fans are following him!
Just enjoy the ride cause when he moves on you will be that heartbroken that you will act like an Uber fan-boy on another clubs forum
It's down to if his system works and we won't know begin to know that until the second time through the schedule. In the Premier League he's up against better coaches and staffs than he faced in other leagues and they will develop answers to his tactics. Whether he can adjust when that happens is an open question.
I suspect you are right about him not minding Kane leaving. With Postecoglou it is all about his system. But we don't know if that system works. We know what we had in Harry Kane.
