    "Let me get me book, marra"....... like it's prominently displayed on the end table next to the settee.
  2. Yup, he was the link in midfield and a constant threat for goals. Drew players to him that would create space for Traore as well. They've not been anywhere near the exciting team they were with Jota. To buy him now, I'd say he's closer to a £70-80mill player.

    @Dokko Right? They're the best enemies and the worst humans.

    @Abacus You weren't joking. Fucking legend.

    Aye, a lovely combo of wind up, funny and over the top.
  6. From Spurs or Conte's perspective? I don't see where they're going to get the type of money for players Conte would want, but shipping Kane could help.
  7. Players loved him, wasn't Jimenez fucked? They sent Jota to Liverpool, who was almost more essential to their attack than Jimenez.
  8. It's Levy pulling the strings, he'll cock it up eventually, probably around the time we become relevant again.

    I miss the war cry's of Sir Ricky Braggia Sbragia more me lyke, marra.

    creased at this. Only the bloodiest of casualties so MLF red could be seen from the heavan's lyke.
  11. Can't see Conte risking his profile on us without any sort of European football or a squad with good and elite players in it. (even in the situation you described)
  12. Conte doesn't strike me as a "from the ground up" type of manager. Rafa loves that, but it's not for everyone.
  13. ??this. Won't be able to attract his level of manager until we're amongst the league leaders, in Champions League and have built out the squad with much better players.
  14. I think Levy is detestable, don't really despise Spurs that much.
  15. What's remarkable about Ole at the wheel is the amount of times he takes a wrong turn, the bloke finds a shortcut back to the M1. (Come back against Atalanta, Spurs win)
  16. Can't deviate from his PFM supporting mandate and I imagine he'd love to snuggle up to them like he did Bruce. Also, Edwards knows it'll wind up most of the supporters. He's a cunt.
  17. Probably not going to win it with a new manager. We're fucking rank and it'll be impossible to turn around given the timeline. Jones has as much chance at a fluke win the same as Favre, Fonseca, whoever. So many on here too desperate for an appointment with the utmost immediacy. Have any of you hired or managed people in your profession? Hiring is fucking hard, hiring the right person is even harder and hiring a football manager is so niche. That's why setting us up for the short/long or term will take a month bare minimum. Ashley has fucked us since coming back up by not investing in the squad, keeping Rafa or being capable of properly running a football club for the past 14+ years. Bruce was the tip of the shit stick and his limitations have put us in our current predicament. Fuck that guy and anyone who said he did a good job here. I'd rather our new board take the appropriate amount of time, process, to hire the RIGHT people to shape this club to never be in our current position ever again. Even if they only last 3-5years, we need short term stability and foresight to set the club up with the proper infrastructure to be an elite club, not just in England, but throughout Europe. If we go down, so what, we build from the Championship with a youth movement and the right players to complement the spine of the squad that comes back up and terrorizes the Prem for years to come. I'm not deterred one iota by our current shiteness, because we'll be a force in the not too distant future if we have the right minds in place for sustained success. HOWAY THE FUCKING LADS!

    Q-Anon of the NE, marra.
  21. The excuses coming from him and Tyler were on another level.
  22. That away kit for Liverpool is class. Nice blend of classic styling and new.
