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.

LOL



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.

      Take care near frozen lakes - dog rescued in 2024 but another dog died today 8th January 2026 in Dulwich

      By beansprout · Posted

      Poor dog….how bloody stupid of owners who clearly have zero recall of their dog. Not good recall, don’t  let your dog off  the lead or have it on a long line. Why did you not hop over fence and get into water to try and rescue dog? Dies in cold water. Totally disgusted but then not surprised by people … No different from people walking their dogs on cliff paths when know might fall off…an  advised to keep on the lead.. do they pay attention….No… what is wrong with people? Don’t they have any common sense? And why wait for fire department? Not exactly strong currents like sea… RIP woofer… no sympathy for owners whatsoever…

      Recommending Andy (@Spoiltdog) | Andyman Handyman

      By shazza76 · Posted

      Andy came recommended by another Tradesman who also did a job for us.  And I am so happy for the recommendation.    Andy is very knowledgeable and professional in his approach to work. The cost of the job was very reasonable. He’s installed temporary ceiling coverage following a leak until the ceiling can be repaired.   Highly recommend Andy and will be using again in very near future! 👍   Thanks Andy!  Andy 07564 194 363.

      Another recommendation for Greg. Echoing pretty much everything everyone else has said. Friendly communication, good work, and clear pricing. Will be sure to use him again for any future plumbing needs! Thanks Greg!
