Very much an on his day type. Too few and far between - in these league at least.

100% this On board with this. Any 'negativity' I have stems from the Shelvey incident and Ashley circus fraying an already very weakened hand in terms of harmony and the club and transfers.

Any excuse to bot Spurs. Tottenham BotSpurs if you will.

Well fair dos he might not be Christ incarnate but he's certainly not here because of the money or status.

he thinks saying ' please lets finish mid table' is doing enough to make it happen. Exactly. 'I know it's not what noocarsel fans want to hear but let's have a comfortable mid table first' THATS WHAT WE'RE TRYING TO MAKE SURE HAPPENS YOU BELMER!

Optimistically, this could see Clarke in at that position with merino in quicker which gives IMO a far better constructive option that a dummett colback setup. Mbemba then has to play with Lascelles. Get injuries and we're fucked though. Welcome back Jack

Haven't seen them touch the ball.

He's got a proper man child vole face

Yeah it's not anger really. Think he's the sort that if he was a rugby player would be pulling hair and gouging eyes at worst. not a good sportsman

Give it to the Walthamstow pele

Games moved like a carnival float when I saw him at reading. Would be worrying.

And will lack for the next few games because of his brainlessness. It's what science calls the twat paradox

Looked fed up. His answers implied he doesn't want to see or talk to Mike Ashley. Or simply about.

Bald people can't be trusted.

He already seems to have shaved shelvey ahead and eyebrows in disgrace

Both correct there IMO. Shelvey is the more obviously given.

Interesting few days eh? Disclaimer: this isn't a meltdown - I'm not predicting relegation or the we'll be fine either and I thought there were some real positives in atsu and manquillo. I also note our dear leader in attendance and my observation regarding him is this. He can make benign speeches about fans 'not going to like this I want a comfortable season' and misrepresent our expectations or delusions of grandeur all he wants. That game was a potential season in microcosm. Lose shelvey we'll struggle creatively (he was poor fwiw) a few injuries in key positions and we are still a lot weaker. We look very toothless up top too despite some talent.It's clear we need further strengthening. It's one game against the runners up in the league and there are positives. Ashley needs to stop deluding himself if he thinks we're expecting top half and if he hopes to have a 'comfortable' finish. All his 'apologies' have done is confirm he is glibly unaware of this though. Let's hope for a better week and window.

Eek.

Manquillo has done alreet

Pretty sure I could elbow someone in the face without looking at them

Rest assured that's going.

Might as well go for it now.

Typical slytherin behaviour
