Kid Icarus

A very sensible choice imo.

No doubt in my mind that he's fickle and will turn it up to 11 if Conte's his manager. Watch his interview with Neville if you haven't. The stuff he says about ambition and about loving The Last Dance and if you've watched that he'll probably see Conte as his Phil Jackson.

Whatever happens it's going to be really interesting. Spurs either become a real force or barring a Levy fuck up, Conte takes a notch off his reputation.

I like it

Hindsight might show us that the alternative is even worse, who knows

Imagine having money though. I'd have been wearing capes and crowns and shit.

Can't even imagine the ridiculous shit I'd have worn if I'd had any money in my early 20s tbf.

Tifo did a Who should Newcastle sign in January? video. Guess who they left in. I like Ritchie because I know he's always putting the graft in, have a real soft spot for him from past performances, and just generally like him (knowing he called Bruce a coward helps) but my God he shouldn't be playing left back.

Dominic can you come on Monday Night Football and be a talking head? Dominic Calvert-Lewin: say no more

Sack him you cowards

Holgate strikes me as a bad footballer

Feels like a typical Rafa improved 2nd half. A 2-2 wouldn't be surprising

IIRC Stephen Hawking is dead and was paralysed from the neck down so if you're saying he still had more movement than Longstaff then he must have been really bad!

For the current situation it would be: Rafa Emery ten Hag Fonseca If I had more confidence in getting a tune out of our players, it would definitely be ten Hag.

An incredible case study in what quickly happens when football fans used to having nothing suddenly have the prospect of getting everything they've ever dreamt of. Some people are probably going to find out that they're just unhappy.

I was surprised when Liverpool went for Jota and not Jiminez tbh, he seemed perfect as a bit of a Firmino understudy. Jota seems to be doing really well though.

Genuinely tragic the way people like that try to make their own empty lives have a higher purpose of meaning by latching onto fairy tales from the past that have nothing whatsoever to do with them. Classy commewneteye advocate King Alfred ffs.

This is such a simplistic view on it, but it's absolutely right like.

I try to be cautious with what I say about other clubs considering how often fans of other clubs get Newcastle completely wrong, but it does seem like he was on a hiding to nothing at Spurs and, in the circumstances, his record wasn't exactly terrible. I watched them against Man United the other night though and that was as poor a Spurs performance as I've seen since the days of Chris Armstrong being their main striker.

Now we're talking. If it's not ten Hag and Rafa's a definite brick wall, he's who we need imo.

Wondering whether it might be ten Hag or Martinez is a really bizarre situation to be in.

Think I'm at about a 5 actually, solely based on the lack of other really poor teams like in most other seasons. This season it seems clear that the truly bad teams are Newcastle and Norwich, without any other clear candidates you could see going down. The new manager has a big job on their hands to keep us up, that's for sure.

That Ramsdale save really isn't all that.

Oof, Spurs are as bad as I've ever seen them.

Spurs getting rid of Poch looking every bit as ridiculously stupid as it did at the time
