Huntelaar's still playing?

Yep.

Dirk Jan Klaas "Klaas-Jan" Huntelaar
― findom haddie (jim in vancouver), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 17:59 (four years ago) link
His goal scoring stats are pretty phenomenal.
― Ned Caligari (Tom D.), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 18:00 (four years ago) link
xp there's a magnificent clip out there somewhere, where when he was just playing for Milan, the pundit keeps shouting "Jan Klaas Oentelahr! Jan Klaas Oentelahr!" after him scoring, mixing up his two first names.

So what'll be Spurs' strategy tonight? I think a good way to start would be, wait for it, Mou-ball. 2017 EL cup final Mou-ball, when ManU won the EL. Chasing Ajax, hoofing the ball to Llorente in this case, skip midfield. Think Ajax will play how they always play (they can't adjust even if they wanted to), but Spurs have the ability to change tactic.
I'm already killed at least ten times in this sordid build-up, from supermarket selling "Tottenhamburgers" to the worst possible punditry, so COYS.

xp WAHT?! Really?
Just when you think you can't respect Nahk more etc
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 18:41 (four years ago) link
OT: do we have a "footballers who really shouldn't become pundits after their playing days" thread? Or would it break the board? Bcz VdV, srsly.
Amazing.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:17 (four years ago) link
Looked offside but that might just be the complete lack of a defence.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:18 (four years ago) link
Think it's prob the latter, yeah
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:18 (four years ago) link
Very lucky not to be two.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:19 (four years ago) link
Pffff
xp yeah!
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:19 (four years ago) link
Van de Beek had so much time to tip that in, I think he grew his first hair on his chin during that time. smdh
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:20 (four years ago) link
Crisis at the moment.
Think he was just on but there was only one replay.
― FernandoHierro, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:20 (four years ago) link
(Fernando are you LG in disguise? Have to ask, sorry)
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:21 (four years ago) link
Ajax 66% possession ffs
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:22 (four years ago) link
They’re making Spurs look like a League One team. Absolutely wouldn’t bet against them turning Barca over.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:23 (four years ago) link
this is like watching an FA cup game with two divisions between the teams, absolute humiliation
lol xp
― Terry Major-Ball Will Tell You (DJ Mencap), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:25 (four years ago) link
xp otm. What are Spurs even doing? Can't detect any actual plan or tactic. Or want.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:25 (four years ago) link
Dang. This will end 0-3, at least.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:26 (four years ago) link
Tbf Spurs have no outlet or pace up front with the injuries.
― FernandoHierro, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:27 (four years ago) link
Worst game of Son's career to miss out on.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:29 (four years ago) link
Oofff. Vertonghen is bleeding to death :(
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:34 (four years ago) link
We have nothing in midfield either, Wanyama can't pass and Eriksen is too far up the pitch.Oh and our centre backs are both dead now, yay.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:34 (four years ago) link
Llorente has actually done okay given his ludicrous unsuitability for the task the circumstances demand.
― FernandoHierro, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:35 (four years ago) link
I am weirdly relaxed about this given how ludicrous the idea of Spurs in the Champions League final is.
― Matt DC, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:35 (four years ago) link
Where the hell is deems btw
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:36 (four years ago) link
Amsterdam.

i'll fill in for deems:
the ref - who is a cunt - is biased against spurs (for no reason)

p sure the authorities would've notified me in advance tbh xp
xp lol
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:38 (four years ago) link
keen to see the Dele Alli heat dot at half time
― Terry Major-Ball Will Tell You (DJ Mencap), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:39 (four years ago) link
Poch out, surely? (xp)
― Ned Caligari (Tom D.), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:40 (four years ago) link
Jan is properly half dead.
Sissoko will save us.
― ShariVari, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:41 (four years ago) link
That was slightly disturbing, watching JV in that state.
― FernandoHierro, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:42 (four years ago) link
If this is anyone's game it's Sissoko's tbf
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:42 (four years ago) link
Yeah that was really horrible, vertonghen's reaction, hope he's ok
xp
― or something, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:49 (four years ago) link
Similar but slightly lesser incident with Fabinho against Cardiff. Football needs some sort of head injury protocol.
― FernandoHierro, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:50 (four years ago) link
There are protocols iirc, but they won't help if a club sends a player back on the pitch. Protocols aren't needed really, common sense should be enough.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:53 (four years ago) link
I guess by protocol I meant it would demand they have to take players off, similar to rugby, that sort of magic sponge vibe there doesn't seem very safe at all and it can't be a team or a manager or a player making the call.
― FernandoHierro, Tuesday, 30 April 2019 19:55 (four years ago) link
medical staff clearly has no influence whatsoever in football. (or are morally and monetarily corrupt, :P )

Spurs more lively now, finally.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 20:15 (four years ago) link
Ajax neutralised in the second half now. Shame Spurs don't have any firepower. Not even a tiny bit.
― Uptown VONC (Le Bateau Ivre), Tuesday, 30 April 2019 20:21 (four years ago) link
Trippier = wasteman
