Don't want Mbuemo here anymore after seeing his penalty kick.

Are you being serious, or just making fun of the fickle people on here that wanted Howe out?

That was a hilarious interview So salty but too much of a wuss to just say what he actually feels with that "all things being equal". 100% beating his wife and crying himself to bed tonight.

Man City take the lead due to a bit of magic and some luck.

Yet how we got our first goal.

I'm glad we've tightened up our defending the last 4-5 weeks, fantastic to see Botman back, and some nice shithousing at the end. Great result. I wish we would have tried to push the team higher and pressing higher to kill the game instead of playing to Tottenhams strenghts all of the second half though.

We're begging for Spurs to score by playing such a low block. I get why we've done this while in the lead in other games, but we're literally letting Tottenham play to their few strengths here.

Time to get that yellow you deserve Joelinton and swipe Maddison off the face of the earth.

Taking off their best player this game. Fine by me.

Not much positive to say about spurs, but Bergvall is surely playing himself into their starting line-up. Great performance from him today.

It is so valuable to have the keeper as another reliable outlet in order to retain possession. We're so much more press resistant with him compared to Pope. It's difficult to quantify, but in theory we are avoiding a lot of unneccesary situations where we would either not pass to Pope and lose the ball to opposition team pressing, or Pope hoofing the ball out for a throw in and giving the opposition the ball. That being said, I still feel more confident with Pope in goal. Ideally we get a keeper in the summer who is as good or not far from Pope in goal, but on par with Dubs ability on the ball.

Suspect one of the Norwegian commentators is a spurs fan too. Most excited hes been this game was then Solanke won the ball when pressing Burn, and spurs goal of course. Been screaming for a Joelinton red too. Fuck him

Looks like he's caving in to the Tottenham crowd. Giving them much more now than the opening 15.

Is Sarrs only job to mark Tonali out of the game? Haven't seen much of either, but usually together.

Joelinton getting stuck in. Love it. Break them.

Weird seeing Botmans name in the line-up its been so long Break a leg lad.

Aye, having two seasoned CBs available is just the same as Spurs having to play an injured CB and an 18 year old midfielder at CB in his debut PL season

They have a decent attack available, but to say they are anything more than down to the marrow in defence is disingenuous. Their likely line-up is Solano - Taylor - Huntington - Edgar level stuff.

Feel confident that we'll get someone if they fit our profile and is available at a decent price due to expiring contract/not getting enough playing time/falling out with current management or similar, otherwise we'll wait until summer....so...you're probably right

We would still have 4 senior keepers on our books, so wouldn't think its a priority unless a really good deal is available to us.

@DahnSahf Picture please. Just want to know if I should bother caring about your opinion or not.

If Joelinton merks Maddison early he'll shrivel into his shell and disappear from the match and we'll "only" have to worry about Kulu, Son & Solanke. There will be goals. Hope we get the majority of them.

Guess it depends a bit on what you put into reaching a ceiling. I don't expect a player at 25, whos been playing top level football regularly for the last 7 years to suddenly become a better player. I think we've seen Isaks ceiling. For me its more the hope and belief that this and the next 5-8 seasons he'll be able to consistently perform close to his ceiling.

I hate seeing this thread so here is me bumping the thread to the top of the forum for the 500th time while not recognizing the irony at all.

Her not using make-up in match analysis/football videos just makes her go up in my estimation imo.
