14 is the best number in the game. Because of Daveed, though, not Henry.

20.38 on here, to Longstaff: ”WE’RE CLASS!” ?

Hit the lights. It's boner time.

24 hours ago I was one of the happiest men on the entire planet. Probably top 0.001%. That might never happen again. What a fucking day.

heh

There’s just no doubt when he goes through like that. He’s world class.

What is happening? Sitting here in stunned disbelief.

He’s filthier than Angela White this boy. Fucking unreal footballer.

Pope Trippier Schär Botman Targett (Burn) Longstaff Guimarães Willock (Joelinton) Almirón Wilson (Isak) Isak (Joelinton) — Dúbravka, Manquillo, Lascelles, Burn, Joelinton, Anderson, Ritchie, Murphy, Gordon. — 4-1

Spurs and Man Utd, for me.

If they end up losing at the weekend and out of the CL spots, with us in one of them, I’ll probably be able to get over Wembley I reckon.

Just a friendly reminder that Man Utd’s starting back five cost over £200M and are probably trousering near enough £1M a week in wages between them. Our equivalent would be Manquillo, Lascelles, Dummett, and Trippier out of position at left-back, based on this season.

Fourth, please.

Chuffed for Antonio, seems sound as fuck.

Hope you’ll be watching on Sunday at 2.

Looking like they might get the rogering we should have given them here. Christ.

Tonight I am Manchester United. (The more games they have to play the better it is for us, surely?)

Is that 26 televised league games with Chelsea (a) still TBC?

It's been a poisoned chalice for years now. Madhouse.

Come on

Of course, Paul Dummett.

Busiest agent in the game, that bloke.

Their financial year ends on 30th June for 2022/23 and the domestic transfer window is expected to open early/mid June. My understanding of it is that they effectively need to shift as many expendable players as possible to fellow PL clubs before 30th June, to recover this set of accounts for FFP. Anyone they sell that is an academy product or beyond the span of their initial contract will go down as pure profit in an accounting sense, as there's no amortisation element. Anyone with a low "book value" as far as amortisation is concerned is also on the block, as they just need to command a transfer fee larger than the book value to record an individual profit on that player. Obviously every other club in the PL and in world football knows about this deadline, so it seems a case of not breaking rank and trying to pick off bargains the closer and closer they get to the 30th. I can't see it happening, unfortunately. Clubs will still be desperate to get certain players that they consider game-changing for them, and might hang on a bit to save a few quid, but they'll be mindful of hanging on too long and allowing more competitors into the race. There's also the will of the players to take into account, of course. Should be fun to watch and we'll probably be a part of it ourselves.

The whole Spurs branch of our family is up for it, as usual, and I can't take a sixth year in a row of not beating them.
