Mata and Kagawa seem to have brought the best out of each other, but unfortunately Mata's cup tied, so Moyes will probably stick with the side that started the first leg, with Kagawa on the bench. Personally I'd play him because of his Bundesliga experience, and I'd also like to see Hernandez start, with his pace he would create problems for Bayern's high line, plus he's our most clinical finisher, important as we need to score a goal in a game where we won't get many chances...

His points record is actually good compared to other Spurs managers of recent times. But he's definitely been caught out tactically on a few occasions. His persona is also very confrontational and aggressive, I don't think that goes down well at any club.

I don't think LVG is a done deal as has been suggested. LVG was spotted with RVP at an Ajax game at the weekend...I'm saying no more... ;-)

If he leaves it will definitely be under his own steam. I had a hunch at the start of the season that this might be his last season, but that was more to do with the possibility of him becoming the manager of the French team after the World Cup. I see that at his last job in football.

Against Everton he looked a beaten man, did he even leave his seat to go into the technical area?

Arsenal should win the FA Cup, and I still think they will finish fourth, as Everton have a much trickier run-in. Failure in one or both will get the boo boys out in force. How many fans as a % would you say are against him SJ?...

I wouldn't dream of pretending to know a % RD - i just don't get along to games anymore so I'm reliant on forums and the like


up until recently my gut feel was about 20% of fans were vociferous in their anger towards Wenger, but I'm sensing it's a lot higher now


Either way, the man himself would be unhappy with even 10% shouting at him they way some are. Does he think things will be better next season. Man Utd fortifying in the summer, Chelsea replacing forwards, Man City doing what they do, Liverpool possibly defending the title, Everton pushing on?


Or does he think every little slip will see the abuse intensify and the possibility of a dignified exit diminish?


I think he will go this summer regardless of how well/badly we do (and I am not confident about beating Wigan at weekend at all)


all feels a bit sad to me

He's thinking of bringing RVP to spurs with him?

Doubt it, I don't think RVP's ready to make that step down just yet...

I would draw the honourable gentleman's attention to the current premier league table.

anyway- re the RVP being seen at a game with Van Gaal in Holland. RVP is a Dutch international, Van Gaal is the Dutch International coach, RVP is receiving treatment at the Dutch Internationl HQ. Gawd bless tabloid journalism.

      Excellent Christmas meal at Franklins!

      By Jenijenjen · Posted

      My memory, admittedly not very reliable these days, places the shop on the block on the left hand side just before Burgess Park going towards Camberwell. Have also found a reference to Franklins Antiques being located at 157 Camberwell Road which is on that block. This is a screen shot obtained from Google maps of that address which accords with my memory except the entrance door was on the right hand side, where the grey door is, rather than in the centre.

      The MFI was probably where Iceland is now. This post makes me feel very old - went to a 30th birthday party in the garden at the back. Oh to be 30 again!

      Wanted: smallish Smart TV in good working order

      By Sue · Posted

      Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!

      It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet.
