Well maybe I'm a dickhead too. But I tend to agee with the second part (b). As do a large chunk of our fans
We're. either a big fish or we're not. And if we are we should always be looking to improve on what we have.

Indeed. He does give the ball away cheaply at times. I've noticed this for a few games now. Re-watched the game again and some of his passing was so casual, sloppy and on a few occasions bloody atrocious.
Like him, but he's gotta improve his passing (wonder passes against Chelsea aside)
Taking a leaf out of Josés timewasting bible then! ...though NOT sure it was needed!
Ha great work! Eddie the Eagle was another good one... But you can't win' em all. If I see a guy with a scarf tied around his wrist again I'll say hi!You're welcome...
T'WAS MEEEEEEE!!!!
I was particularly pleased with Eddie the Eagle.... (though the Maggie Thatcher one missed the mark a little!!)
Im glad you enjoyed my work!!
Though I was still reeling when Son got taken off, and denied the possibility of my DELE-KANE-SON chant... alas, I may never have the chance unless they all score in THAT order in a game... still, 2 outta 3 ain't bad... though it was like watching an accumulator fall with the last race!!
(If only I knew you were in 127alexwooty ... would have said 'Ello!) I'd moved from 128 due to the INCESSANT droning and moaning from a coupla blokes behind me....
He was cautious and nervous last night, first time cant remember him dribble pass players or even stepping in the opposition half.
Doesn't it just make the point that the market for football players is a very strange one? It does not behave as economists would normally expect a market to work.
I think it's because they are humans, and humans can do extraordinary things - not robots that just do the same thing to the same standard every time
a man of which was once said;
"Who?"
Of course Eriksen and Dele were the better signings but we didn’t know that at the time as both were unproven
I agree we paid too much for Sissoko but that was in a totally different inflated transfer market
As you know I like Sissoko but am aware of his limitations
Keep him out of either penalty area, let him run about a bit, covering and tackling up and down the pitch and he does a job which neither Eriksen or Dele does
But that’s ok as both of them bring other skills to our side
It’s about balance and Poch is getting it right but plenty to do yet
I agree, for example did we pay too much for Wilson Palacios?
Based on his ability probably, based on our need at the time definitely not.
May I point out that Lloris made some important saves for a below average Spurs performance. And VORM would have cost Tottenham this match had he played. He did in the FA Cup semi final.
Poch doesn't get everything right, and has his favourites, including his love-affair with Sissoko who booted it into row Z from point blank.
You cannot be sentimental in the big games, and playing Vorm was a terrible error which even the Sky commentator Bill Leslie said "It raised a few eyebrows".
Playing Vorm because he played the early rounds against Rochdale, etc, when they had much more important games in the PL and Champs League, was a stupid decision.

fuck this list is really hard to look at!
can pretty safely say we've been shit at buying.
about a 1/4 to 1/3 success rate! :S
I still don't get this - how exactly did Vorm cost us in the FA Cup Semi Final? He made some decent saves, and both goals were going past any keeper. Same would have happened with Hugo. Seems to be an agenda against him which is pretty unfounded in my opinion.
