NUFC's record against City is an embarrassment.

This man is genuinely the best striker in the world at this moment.

Duran to Saudi just makes me think that the links to Real Madrid, PSG, etc. were agent talk and that there was not a move available in the near term. Those would still take priority, imo. Boniface made more sense as he'd regressed somewhat this year, has two serious injuries, was being pushed by Schick at his club. Grabbing the money maybe the move for him. Arsenal would have to break the British transfer record by a significant amount to sign Isak right now. This will not happen.

Too involved with fatherhood related activities to find a stream for our match, but half watching the beating Bournemouth are distributing to Forest and it certainly makes me feel better about the previous match. They might finish above Forest this season, tbh.

There are young boys playing under Third Mainland Bridge after spending the morning hawking plantain chips who would make less mistakes in goal than Onana. Completely different player to the one at Inter.

Eight of the previous ten titles have been won by Manchester City and Chelsea and now there are suddenly rules preventing massive external investment from clubs that do not have massive revenue

It is a shame this PSR nonsense arose as soon as Newcastle had money to spend. Minteh and Anderson are good young players who would have easily transitioned into impactful subs or starters this season. Both have a place in the squad right now, tbh. Sold to improve some nonsensical financial metric.

Tbf to Ange, if Spurs have to continually play Dragusin and Archie Gray in defensive positions, they will concede massive amounts of goals. I suppose the deeper issue is the he has no ability to adjust the system to fit the players available, but those two are not serious at this level and are incredibly exposed.

There is not too much to take from this match, tbh. The team has been playing extremely well, but came out looking ragged and tired against a side that worked hard and was well-drilled. There are times you can overcome this, but you will not when the opposition is finishing like that.All four goals were very well taken. The sloppiness today was poor, but is only really a worry if it spreads to the next few matches. The question is if the team can regain positive momentum after getting their ass viciously beaten in that manner

Quite mad that NUFC has roughly two of the top five strikers in the world at the club a year 18 months ago.

Ange is an odd character to be manager of a club like Spurs. Guy is arrogant and unpleasant with the media, but also has very little history of success in his career to back up this behaviour. You would think he was a young, headstrong manager with the way he acts, but this man is older than my parents, lol. I don't really understand him or why Spurs fans back him and his "project" despite mediocre results. The man seems over-matched, tbh.

Badly need to bring Longstaff or Willock on, the team is lacking legs.

I hope people remember days like this before they enter this thread to disparage him the next time he goes a few matches without scoring and is missing chances. Striker is the most inconsistent position by nature; all of them will have cold spells. The reality is that Isak is easily one of the best forwards in the entire world when he is "on" and that is a very good amount of the time. Even when he's not scoring, his general play is incredibly valuable to the team. Easily the most important player in the team; the success of the remainder of the season will depend heavily on his availability.

If this results holds, it puts us behind Fulham and Bournemouth, and this wouldn't be out of step with how the team has looked this season. Generally, they have played at a similar level to those midtable sides. The lack of solidity they showed after taking the 2-1 lead is concerning. Looks with the ball, easy to play through. You don't compete against top teams that way. Edit: Fuck all that shit I just said

There are countless avenues to express these things that do not put their players in this position, tbh. The entire situation feels unnecessary to me.
