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.

      Cllr Williams to stand down

      But I don't think that was what you meant, was it? But he can hardly be held responsible for what somebody else did! Just discovered I forgot to post the above  last night, and now it's overtaken by long posts.  I don't have sufficient knowledge  to counter some of what has been said above, some of which appears to be opinion rather than facts, so it would be pointless for me to say anything else.

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that

      Rude Evri delivery in SE22

      By Angelina · Posted

      If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.
