Did quite like a comment on Tottenham Forum from a guy saying that he's starting a Southgate Out Thread now, just in case.

I’m no Southgate fan
But I’d put Good Money on him doing a better job at Spurs and Man United than the current managers they have

JJ is not a natural finisher, on replaying all his chances he kept his eyes on the ball all through the strike, he had no awareness of the positioning of the keeper and hit the ball straight at him. He did well in general play but he has to learn the art.

I think he was a very good finisher before his injury - always found the corner and rarely fluffed a chance - I think some of it is part of him getting his confidence / match fittness.

If like a winnable away tie, with enough ticket allocation to have a chance of going.
Man Utd are shit and Man City aren’t what they were, but want to avoid them ideally. Also would like to avoid Forest and Bournemouth at the moment.
Preston, Plymouth, Cardiff away perhaps, or if not any of them three at home


We’ve taken care of WHU and Totteringham so why not Millwall and Palace …so long as it’s at home please?

At last a domestic cup tie that we took seriously and showcased some lovely attacking play. Got moved out of my usual perch in the North Stand Upper and have to say the seats (especially legroom) and facilities in the Trinity were much better.
Not sure if I missed something but have they deleted all traces of Jhon Duran from the goals compilation that gets aired just before the teams come out?

Anything that fucks Spurs up is fine with me. Ive never gotten over the way the press and BBC were giving them a rim job for winning the FA cup twice beating such footballing superpowers as exeter and coventry along the way while a certain club from Aston won the League, European cup and Super cup and by comparison got ignored. I hope Ange takes their arses down.

The position he plays he tends to find most of his chances fall on his weaker foot. I still think he's a half decent finisher. One of my favourite current players.

That Porro is a snidey little shit. Got done with a nice bit of skill and chased back just to foul. And he's a whiner too.
That Bergval is also a right dirty c***. Constant fouling then had the cheek to look hard done by when he finally got yellow carded.

If you watch that back check out Tielemans' face when Bergvall starts starts complaining, the "who the fuck is this twat?" vibes are strong.

Took a break from my usual seat in the Witton and tried the Holte Upper, right up the back. Blimey, those stairs were a killer.

Of their squad i think I'd take ven der ven, Kulusevski, Bissouma (personal life aside) and possibly Bentancour.

Kulusevski is the only one I'd consider.

You'd think that if those chances fell to a fit Rashford, coming through the inside left channel in a 1-1 with the keeper, we might have been rather more comfortable at the end there.

First two would be decent squad additions IF we don't keep Rashford or Asensio and decide to sell Mings. However the latter two I'm not so sure on.
