Ah jaysus though son was dreadful today until thatThat would be Son who's perfect free kick led to our only goal - right bench him?
He’s moaning about the final pass but left the three better midfield passers on the bench and waited until 70 & 83 Mins to bring any of them on
Playing them 3 times this month. And Woolwich. We will learn a lot about this team and Conte by February.It's nuts innit?
IF we win our 2 games in hand, we're only 3 points behind 2nd placed Chelsea.... that was almost unthinkable before Conte arrived!
Think I’ll side with keys here. Robert Maxwell wasn’t a nice man, so I’ve no doubt what he says in that tweet is true. THFC probably wouldn’t exist today if Maxwell had got his hands on us. I hated Sugar as our chairman but my goodness it could have been worse.
This crackers creature is a bit of a tool but he’s bang on here.
Do you trust our midfield though? We have seen Leeds waltz through.Complete disagree with him.
Is Woolwich going to play a total low block with 11 behind the ball like watford did?
No? They’re going to setup to try and dice directly through our midfield and we’ll play a siege midfield press and see if we can counter? Oh, then it’ll be a 100 percent different match than this weekends 2 and these have absolutely no bearing on it at all…
Agree.... remember Thames Valley Royals idea he dreamt up to try and merge Oxford Utd and Reading....?Think I’ll side with keys here.

I imagine he'd have tried something similar with us... North East London Utd merger with West Ham? awful, awful man!

The fuck it was. Super defensive cunts.
He owned Derby as well didn’t he. Thank goodness Sugar and Venables got along for the five minute to buy the club when they did.
At least a yellow for the wrestling.....it wouldn't have changed the game but at least it would have looked as though he cared. That is the most incompetent exhibition by a ref I can remember. Even the pundits were calling it! That guy should be hauled over the coals by the FA and sent to the championship. He has no business in the PL.I wonder if there isn't a tendency by officials to avoid making what might be a decisive call. In this case they call either the foul on Kane or the one on Dier and it goes from being a tight nil-nil game in the hands of the players to probably being over. In some ways you don't want a call to take the game out of the player's hands but you can't just ignore obvious fouls either.
Gets to a point where you lose countDier one was 50 times worse
The first chairman I can remember being "an issue" was Scholar, in the sense that in the 70s no one gave much of a monkeys about them across the board. They were names in the programme and not much more.Think I’ll side with keys here. Robert Maxwell wasn’t a nice man, so I’ve no doubt what he says in that tweet is true.

We played better v Liverpool than they did v City. Fuck them. They should've drawn, we should've won like 5-2 v Liverpool...Hate to say it but they are.
Watched Woolwich v City and then us. Not convinced they were playing the same game.
Utterly devoid of ideas on how to break down a defensive outfit (rather like Soton's 10 men). Relied on a set piece to steal 3 thoroughly unwarranted points.
Makes you pine for Trippier on the right. Emerson was truly useless.
Other than missing from the edge of the area, can't remember Kane doing anything. Son was hopeless for 100 minutes before delivering the cross.
Thoroughly depressing performance redeemed by the three points.
