I don't recall ever seeing him do that?
What he does do, is lead by example on the pitch.
It is a bit weird from Perez as he knows the reaction it will get. Maybe that’s the point? He’s trying to get fans excited by Poch’s return and is whipping up a bit of momentum before the game today.
Hopefully he doesn’t need to do that. Hopefully we will be chanting “He’s magic you know” and “Daniel Levy get out of our club.” The fact is if Poch and his team would even consider coming back Levy should be willing to walk over broken glass to get them back.
It maybe a disaster but at least a good proportion of the fan base wants it and seems Poch and his team want it as well. The fact is him leaving did not make Spurs better if anything it made us worse over the long run.
A fool and his money....
I'll grant you that Leicester have performed worse than I expected this season. I had them pegged for lower mid-table on the periphery of the relegation dog-fight but ultimately having enough quality to avoid any significant risk to their Premier League status. My only caveat with that was their failure to sign another goalkeeper to replace Kaspar Schmeichel. I'm not a fan of two back-up keepers fighting to be number one and that seems to be where they've come unstuck.

Shearer: Players ‘taking responsibility’ isn’t as easy as it sounds - especially when times are bad
It's easy to call players selfish – because they often are – but their inability to stand up in times of trouble is complicated

Ward was in the form of his life before the WC though.
Not replacing Fofana was a big miss for them.
Used to do it at least once every game.
Was he?
Indeed he was.
Had him on my fantasy team. Otherwise wouldn't have a fucking clue what Danny Ward was doing.
It's happening.
He's been terrible this season, probably the worst keeper in the league.
I doubt football insider live up to their name but after reading their article I actually think it’s less likely. Briefing press to return, Perez’s post yesterday,
1. Here is Pep talking about playing 3 atb with the FB tucking into MF to control the middle of the park.
2. The moment we get a manager that plays 4 atb and we don't play scintillating stuff, the same people complaining about 3atb now, will be complaining about not playing 3atb.
Mick McCarthy just became a free agent.
Yeah he was on form. He was a calamity for a while but then became more assured. Guess that’s normal for a new GK
I had a dream last night that I met Martin Jol and he got emotional when I said he should come back as manager.
Get him on the list!
