He's had some poor moments, but he'd been the main outlet we've had there, he'd been in an absolute shift this game
-
Good to see the refs are looking after man City, who are obviously needing the support
-
Thought refs were supposed to be clamping down on dissent, Grealish just having a go at him all the time
-
Lucky Gordon isn't sent for that
-
Been looking forward to this all day, feeling unusually confident about this match
-
Never feel like we're getting the win against City, but this at least feels like the best time to play them to try and get something out of it. Worst case though it's over and done with and not going into the end of season run in still needing to get through this fixture.

This is it, at 18 his career is ahead of him, and he looks quite the prospect, with Livramento on the right, and Botman in the middle it's a backline that could remain relatively consistent for nearly a decade as we inevitably transition to life after tripper and schar at some point.

Well done Lionesses, definitely deserved that win, alot more clinical in front of goal. We've not taken our chances in front of goal this tournament as much as we should, still the Matilda's can hold their head high, they've definitely changed the view of football and women's sport in Australia, hopefully it's not forgotten about come Monday morning though.

Work rate from him was brilliant, moment tracking back in the first half to being the last defender and cutting the angle for Diaby was immense. Really think he's got the ability to become a top player, and the humility and workrate to actually get there
-
Bruno's role has changed a lot since that first 6 months with us, he's still the most gifted player we have, but with alot more people focusing on him, it makes his game alot harder. Also with alot more quality in the squad he doesn't stand out the way he did. Hes still the first name on the team sheet for me, and with Tonali now I think he's going to start to gain some space back again
-
Klopp, something something club financial ceilings. Fucking hypocrite.
-
I think the development and conditioning he will see from embedding into Howe's style of football will be more important then getting him playing for Leicester. Not to disregard them or their coaches, but their intensity isn't the same. After 12 more months of working around our first team he may be ready to pay, or then we can look at loaning him out, at his age there's no rush.
-
Probably will come to regret saying this, but I struggle to see their league ever being anything more then a novelty. They're signing amazing players, but it's still a handful of players across a whole league. Buying top quality defenders will never seen as exciting so I can't see them doing that, so we may end up with world class attackers playing against part time defences. Their clubs will still need to build the entire infrastructure and depth that most professional clubs have and this will take time, even with unlimited wealth behind them. The whole thing with their league just feels soulless
-
He will be coming in with a higher base level of fitness then others, so may not have to ramp up to more intense training as quick as others. So while he's not having much of a break, I trust the trainers are going to give him the right routine to get him ready for the season while not burning him out

James Maddison (now playing for Tottenham Hotspur)
wiseman replied to The Prophet's topic in Football
6 months ago I would've though Maddison is the best we could get, after the last week I'm now not worried if we miss out on Maddison as Ive got faith that management will find someone to do the job anyway. -
Imagine telling us 2 years ago we could have a midfield trio of 2 Brazilians and an Italian International
-
Admittedly I know fuck all about him before the last 72hrs, but as a now YouTube expert on him, I'd expected us to find cover for Longstaff after his injury last season showed how vital he is. I didn't think we'd be able to find a replacement for his work rate with more skill as well but it shows how little I know about football these days
-
New Zealand vs Qatar abandoned as New Zealand refused to come out in the second half after ref did nothing regarding racial abuse of Michael Boxall by a Qatari player. Great to see a team actually do something about it
-
That's exactly how I feel, one of my favourite managers since he managed the roar, was some great seasons then. But I can't stand Spurs and never wish them to succeed.
