Indeed, especially Tim F-M. I don't think there's any coincidence that our best performance is when we play 4-3-3 for the first time this season. The same formation that we used last season when comfortably beating Spurs, Liverpool and City on the bounce. For some reason LvG totally abandoned it. Muppet...

Makes me feel so old as I was listening on the radio on the way up to Villa Park for our semi-final vs Forest (another FA Cup heartbreak :( )

Never mind, this result may be the turning point.......


That sees him* offered a new contract!? :)



*LVG

I didn't see the match but it sounded an amazing game.

One thing that has impressed me about Klopp is that he has been working with Rodgers' squad, and hasn't once used it as an excuse when results have gone against him. It's going to be a really important summer transfer window for him and a few other managers...

They've still got Danny Ings to come back as well. Either of those two would do me to play alongside Harry Kane.


While I'm here this is a very good article on the dearth of defenders being nominated for Player of the Year awards. Toby Alderweireld is definitely my Player of the Year, not just at Tottenham either.

I don't think it's a co-incidence that we've gone from having one of the worst goals conceded records in the top half of the top flight (consistently year after year) to having the best (by a distance) this year. Last season we conceded 53 goals in 38 games, so far this year we've conceded 25.


Alderweireld and to a degree Eric Dier & Lloris have easily been as important as Kane and Alli.

    • Callout for help from any local experts here. Looking to find out more about the history of the property on the corner of Whateley Road and Ulverscroft road (with the green glazed bricks). Now a residential property, i'm told it was a bottle shop in days gone (the house was built around 1900) by and i'd like to learn more about the history of the business that was once here - name, photos, anything at all really! Seems to be very little from open source research so i'm hoping anyone with history in the area can provide any insight!  Starting here before i contact Southwark Archives or similar orgs to get any information and pictures (any advice here also would be welcome). Thank you
    • Portable ramps are available for businesses to use in this sort of situation, aren't they? I don't know whether one would be suitable for use here, or whether they have the space to store one. Lots of people have  permanent or temporary disabilities which mean they have to use crutches or a wheelchair.
    • I can’t remember where I read that figure but this article in the Grauniad from 2023 discusses Ocado results from 2022. The average shopping cart fell to £118 from £129 the previous year. But Ocado lost £500m that year on approximately 20 million orders (circa 400k orders per week). So, averaging out to £25 lost per order. Ocado pauses building new warehouses as annual losses balloon to £500m | Ocado | The Guardian  Obviously, the £500m loss includes various factors. But Ocado has existed for 25 years and only made a small profit in a couple of those years. The rest have been huge losses. Yet it continues to raise funds and speculation sends the share price up and down. In that respect,  it’s like the UK version of Tesla. Meanwhile, the main growth in the supermarket sector has been for Aldi and Lidl, who do not deliver.
