Anthony cut my hair and gave the beard a trim last time. He did a pretty good job. Not crispy tho, fam, not too sure what crispy feels like.
 


no player signed, no stadium, no trophies

What is Tottenham doing to do this year? No big new players, if I recall. You think they’ll compete?

Also, given that BBC article, Liverpool would have finished 3rd without some of that bad luck

If all left footed goals scored between the 33-37 minutes and right footed / headed goals between 84-90 minutes were revoked, United would have won the league.

I like ladies WC footy, but can’t be bothered to watch season play.

I’m with you. I usually enjoy some of the Women’s World Cup and Olympics, but I’m not under the delusion that it’s anywhere close to being on par with the men.

Players Poch signs dont usually get to start games until the following window. So he has Moura & Aurier ready to compete this yr. They've got Winks back now too. It would cost Spurs 50-60m minimum to bring in the level of player that would walk into their starting XI rn. Liverpool(Naby), Utd(Fred) & Chelsea(Jorginho/Kovacic) scooped up the cream. Even City lost out. Lazio wanting 120m for Milinkovic-Savic is out their price range & French club wanting 50m for Ndombele was too much.

Hard to guage which Spurs transfer rumours have legs nowadays anyways. We were all convinced Toby was off to Utd but Ed never even put a single bid in for him. TM is nuts at the moment.

I think Spurs will compete. They've a strong starting XI, ok depth & a great coach.
 


Roma pulled off Nzonzi :eek:

What a squads Juve, Inter and Roma have managed to put together.

As strange as it is to say about a bloke who has won 3 CLs in a row, he's still unproven in many ways.

100% spot on.

Don't watch much la Liga but I read a lot of pundits question his tactical nous.

Yes. Madrid played some ugly football and it was just them solely relying on a stacked squad. Zizou didn't give any indication he was a tactical genius by any chance.

You think Alderweireld will get back into the starting XI eventually?
 
Caught a CSL game today on ESPN+, pretty fun 5-2 with some big names -- Renato Augusto, Jonathan Viera, Cédric Bakambu, Yannick Carrasco and Nico Gaítan.

Bakambu blew some clear shots on goal despite completing a brace.

Those Chinese players are pretty bad and the attrocious MLS-esque defending though.

Unless he manages to get the PSG or Bayern job next you have to fancy him to struggle at his next job. Would not be confident he'd do well at United.

He's told Toby he gets a reset.

He'd struggle to get in their back 4 right now though cuz Davinson is playing well & is like grease lightning. He walks into a back 3 tho.
