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 :( )

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.

      Xmas lunch at local pubs/restaurants?

      By Sue · Posted

      £30-40 for M&S Christmas food for two seems very low! And only £60 for food and drink for 8-10 people?  We have had M&S food at Christmas in the past, and it came to a lot more than that. I suppose it depends exactly what you are buying. We left it late to book a Christmas Day meal out last year, so there weren't many options left.  The Cherry Tree menu looked very nice. That was our first mistake. We also overlooked the fact that it was a Young's pub, with all that implies about the food. That was our second mistake. We don't have shedloads of money. We  took the view that we deserved a nice meal  out after working bloody hard all year. So it was doubly disappointing to basically waste a lot of money which could have been very much better  spent elsewhere.

      The Dean's Sermon, Southwark Cathedral - "God, I thank you that I am not like other people"

      No sweetheart. It is a fantastic sermon which should be shared. It is a rights-based sermon which received a standing ovation - if you can be bothered to get to the end.

      Welcome back. What have voting intentions got to do with this thread? And much as you may hate the present incarnation of so-called Labour, as do I,  I don't think it is true that they have "not done a single positive thing for working class people", is it? And how exactly are you defining "working class people", anyway?

      Is Sarah Pochin toast?

      By Earl Aelfheah · Posted

      I can’t bear the media “is this racist comment racist” angle taken to reporting it. I feel like she’s a useful out rider for Farage to test how far they can take their rhetoric - it’s not the first time she’s said things that cross over the line. Overt racism is becoming far more commonplace and it’s deeply concerning.
