Figures 1-0 Football

Sadly it is only a matter of time before he loses his battle completely. Very sad.

I still don't see how anyone can say Sissoko is any good. A lot of running around and zero end product. 1 goal in 3,605 minutes of football this season across 49 matches (international and club). For an attacking player. He has 12 goals and 18 assists for Newcastle in 124 matches.

Would not put it past Arsenal, when they get desperate at the end of the window cos they've signed nobody again. If somebody buys this clown, it'll be a panic buy.

The fee is allegedly £5m with add ons. Villa fans must be inspired.

The FA really dont want England to be successful, do they? Sadly this will mean Fat Sam keeps his media storm of 'relegation God' name and the mackems get the opportunity to replace the fucking idiot.

Delighted for Sissoko tonight, deserves the misery of losing tonight based on his gutless performances for us. Only shows up when he wants, turns out even that cant win him anything. Cant wait for Liverpool to buy him for £600m now.

Devastating that is.

Even worse.

Looks like the start of a moth-horror movie. The world could end tonight, this could be it.

Who has the time to make all that shit up? Sad bastards.

Apart from Kane and Alli, no one chipped in with more than 6 league goals for them. Possibly in Pochettino's thinking. If they'd had Gini's 11 they might have won it. How does that make sense? In Leicester's squad, no one other than Vardy or Mahrez scored more than 6 goals, but they still managed to win the league. Gini would end up benched after he's found out to be the fraud he is, no other club would put up with his disappearing act like we did last year. People forget that of Gini's 11 goals, 6 of them came in two matches. He disappeared in every away match we played and impacted on probably 5 of our games all season. Exactly but that makes him worth 20m apparently. Baffling. The same crazy science that makes Mane, Benteke and Deeney worth £30m+

Them badges are horrific :'( A shame really because it's the nicest kit we've had in a long time.

He's earning £100k a week in China, mental.

I imagine Ready To Groom's average age is about 18, based purely on the posts I see on it. If it isn't, I'd imagine 80% of posters are mentally handicapped in some way.

But I think you'd expect people like Lamela and Eriksen to contribute more goals than what they did. You wouldn't with Leicester and they probably won't do what they did again. Spurs to go the final step need more than relying on Kane and Alli. Whilst I do agree, the original point you made is not why Spurs lost out of the league. Spurs shit themselves and couldn't go through with it, whereas Leicester could. The home game against West Brom and the away game at Chelsea where they lost the league, resulted in Spurs losing the title. Buying players like Wijnaldum, who will only impact as/when he fancies it, will not help their cause. Could you imagine Gini picking the game up by the scruff of its neck against West Brom or Chelsea and pulling out a winner? Not a chance. Townsend would have been a better option for them, which is ironic.

Blackpool are a right mess at the moment, I remember a good few years ago (5 or 6 maybe) when I worked in a hotel their owner was staying there (Owen Oyston). He was with some lass who must have been young enough to be his daughter, absolutely hammered in the hotel bar about 11pm on a school night. He tipped me £20 so I was quite impressed. Not sure if she was a regular piece or a paid for one, either way she was stunning.

Tottenham following up on bottling last season by buying one of the biggest bottlers in our squad last season Would take £20m plus a player all day long for him, very talented but no desire.

Not really sure what else Rafa could do to make me love him more. The optimism right now is incredible and long overdue. Imagine us going into this season with Nigel Pearson in charge!

If it is only being reported in The Sun, then we can probably just ignore it.

A really poor player this lad, at fault for so many of our goals. Will be delighted when we get rid.

To be fair, we're in a win-win situation with Gini and Sissoko. Keep them (due to no decent offers or whatever) - they then have to perform well for at least half of the season to have any chance of getting a move away in January. Sell them (due to a decent sized offer coming in) - we then have £40m+ to strengthen to squad. Personally I think both players have their talents, but both have such a poor characters that the bad days outweigh the good days.

Think they pretty much already had a Championship squad last year. Aye, but the problem for them is it wouldn't have been a very good Championship team Can easily see them failing next year if they don't shift a hell of a lot of deadwood.

Have Villa not sold anyone yet? They really need a good clear out, like we're having, if they stand any chance next season.
