Lol. Citeh made you believe you were half in this, while in fact you weren't, not even close.

NFL pitch accurate Spurs description etc.

in buffering hell rn tbh but if city outplay us and let us equalise now then they get no more credit than we do when we do the same

lol talking seriously about spurs' pride/shame in merely qualifying for the CL as if Arsene doesn't still live and breathe

that was a pen...

yep

talking about cl qualification as a goal without reference to the competitive environment is idiocy tbh

its never been as tough to get 4th as it will be this season

that was a p good half. city gradually looked less comfortable, if only walker had headed it in

"Never been as tough"? Gtfo. I don't believe this to be true. City/Chelsea/Liverpool are locked for top three, but who else would compete for fourth with Spurs? Shakey arsenal? ManU, in total ruins? Surely not.

If anything, it's easier more than ever for Spurs to finish third/fourth, esp this season. Problem is Spurs fans, you too, seem satisfied with their team finishing fourth every year. Whatever floats yr boat iirc.

I think the Arsenal team that are currently in 4th are probably contenders for 4th

They're Arsenal. They're not.

uh, finishing 3rd/4th was kind of Arsenal's whole thing for a solid decade there

poor trolling this

Not really because (xp) is true.

City might win the league with 2 poor full backs but they are 2 poor full backs. Neither had a good game last night.

They'll probably buy a couple in January though.

Mendy is superb going forward (possibly the best crosser in the league) but yeah, he's a car crash of a defender

Should also be getting a ban if the FA revisit the attempted punch on Lamela

if only for the form

Mendy seems like a genuinely good dude but yeah he got skinned again and again last night, not that it made any difference in the end. I wonder if they'd have scored and dominated more with a more defensive LB and Sane on the pitch instead.

So who's going to RM? Conte? Mou? Wenger? Poch?

Poch is the favourite!

According to the BBC website, negotiations with Conte broke down

The fourth favourite is Bobby Martinez so I wouldn't put too much stock in those odds.

I heard Conte was demanding a highly paid valet to maintain his ridiculous hairpiece as part of the deal.

conte will you just sign the fucking ting

meanwhile dele's not going alliwhere (apols)

he and winks looked very good indeed after coming on last night

I wonder if Real will struggle to hire a name knowing that everyone's achievements will pale in comparison to Zizou's.

Imagine blowing the chance to manage your country through a World Cup just so you could manage Real for a grand total of two months.

Who would have thought that a system reliant on shady billionaires pumping vast amounts of money into clubs with little or no oversight of where that money comes from could be open to abuse?

Fit-and-proper-person test: how much proper money can you fit in 50 suitcases.

Good shady billionaire stock photography there as well.

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho will not be punished by the Football Association after it failed to prove that he swore in Portuguese during his side's win over Newcastle on 6 October.

are u sober yet buck

somewhat

maybe i'll book my apologies in now

yeah you better be coming in feet dragging and face floorwards with a bunch of flowers in the back hand lad

no league cup thread?

three remarkably stupid offsides and. two instances of non marking at far post so far

might be a fun night

good finish from lucky bounce from son

aurier really doesn't wanna play left back

eriksen getting all his bad out of his system i think

its good

Derby have scored all four goals in the first half and it’s 2-2.

this is strange cos even tho we are under the cosh from west ham the past twenty minutes you can still tell quite easily that west ham are utterly shit

not a lot of competence on show here tbh

including our second

the second time tonight alli has kicked a ball into a west ham defender to deflect into sons path for a one on one with the gk

good tactic

jesus awful goal conceded

its absurd to be so disappointed by a youth/reserve win away on a cup derby but this has been awful just awful

Beautiful stuff from Bournemouth right now.

David Brooks is probably the best footballer ever to look like a teenage Green Day fan.

Absolutely ripping us to shreds

There's simply no way he can survive the imminent annihilation from City surely
