Cameron Carter Vickers is vertically challenged and seems to be first choice right now, Lascelles is a great leaper. We went so far down the hill that we have started over. We're playing 18-22 year olds now.
I mean I doubt we will pick a sub par centre back cos he can jump. We’ve a load of players who are quality in the air. I think the World Cup going back has been perfect timing. Was reading the other day that Americans are the second highest buyers of tickets for the current World Cup after the Russians, so the interest is there. You must introduce promotion and relegation though, it’s essential to competition mate. Integrate the other league with MLS, to grow at football you’ve got to have both.
True mate i know feck all. Im just saying hes a class player and key to a very good Spurs team (As is Jordan to Liverpool), so it seems harsh hes barely had a kick yet.
Decent performance with a phenomenal score line. Set pieces required to break them down initially but no need to bring the team down. Defensively we will get rinsed by a good side but we have the attack to fight back. We won’t win the word cup but the euros could be interesting. Also, love what Southgate is doing. I was one of the very few who was over the moon he came in and I’m glad it’s working out. We could win something under him!
That’s my thoughts mate, genuine chance at the Euros. 2 or 3 of the next wave been through by then as well, Remember we’d likely be better at CB with one of Tarkowski or Keane had they not had injuries. Great shape for 2 years, if nothing else we’ve had a last minute winner and a great afternoon today, we’ve had some moments to enjoy regardless what comes next. It’s a shame I can’t post my snappy story here it’s ****ing brilliant, fanzone and 02, absolute bedlam and not a spot of bother, class day.
And on the pitch mate! Let’s not forget they played 87mins with 10 and only just lost. They are ****ing decent and we don’t want them last 16! But the birds....
They really are mate, the fluidity is like a Brazil team of yesteryear. They ship chances though and Ospina is an average keeper, but ****ing hell its a job defending against that. Fans are mental as well, exactly the kind of football and atmosphere you want in a World Cup. 30,000 of them? That’s gotta be 2k a flight. Still shifting that beagle then haha.
Agreed wholeheartedly. We can get at them for sure but I fear we’d ship too many! Defensively we lapse too much. The fans are something else. The women are even better!!!
Tried to explain promotion and relegation to the Australians... They just do not get it. They don't see that it holds the game back and makes their top league no competitive. Weird.
