Oh yeah, no chance of signing him at the moment. They’d want mega money. Just hypothetically speaking that I think he’d be a good fit for Spurs judging by what I’ve seen. Part of me is hoping Bournemouth keep him for a while anyway, he’s got a perfect manager to work under there, he’d be silly to leave so soon and warm the bench most weeks at a “bigger club”.

100%, a few years at Bournemouth under Eddie Howe will do him wonders. He needs to be playing as much as possible for the next year or two and then he’ll go for a pretty penny (sorry Bournemouth), probably too pretty a penny for us to be in the running tbh. He’s one of those players you’d pay to watch though, for sure.

That 4-0 Chelsea shocker unfortunately reminded me of another shocker. Newcastle 5 v Spurs 1.Which gave Arsenal 2nd in the PL over us!

In a couple of years we'll have mucho pretty pennies - assuming we are into the new ground by then <whistle>.

It was ****ing hilarious to hear Sarri thundering about how Callum-Hudson Odoi should respect the Chavs' academy considering their academy is responsible for racially abusing trainees, sexually abusing trainees before the club attempts to pay off those abused so they keep their mouths shut, and failing to produce a single first team player since John Terry - and even if they did have a prospect with a high ceiling, they'd be buried under the mountain of overseas prospects they sign and then loan out to mid-table Eredivisie clubs for season after season until they forget that they're there

It's like the ghost of Christmas past...….and then we signed Sissoko for bad.....then good!
Could be the same with Llorente.

City don't look as invulnerable now and Chelsea look positively lightweight after that beautiful thrashing. Liverpool scraped by Palace at home and could only draw with Leicester at Anfield so too are looking vulnerable as are now Man Utd whose bubble has now burst. Arsenal scraped by Cardiff so the only creditable result was ours against a strong Watford team. The title race is far from over and I'll repeat if we can weather the injury storm which we started to do against Watford we will be in with a good chance.

Klopp has started making excuses i.e. pitch difficult, SURE SIGN of a coach under pressure and probably the beginning of the end for Sarri also.

That pitch was a bit water-laden (and no doubt added to the Mouser scroll of
excuses - to go alongside the Citeh pitch grass was 'too long' the other week etc) ,
but if players of yore could prevail with skill on far worse, than so should the
modern player be able to.
 
Chelsea captain, Cesar Asperusual, has gone on record that after getting tonked by Bournemouth, Chelsea's squad spoke as men about the loss. Unfortunately, the manager called out their best player for not doing what he was told and he and his 'big lip' were so sulky that he refused to get on the bus to go home.....<laugh>

Sorry about the dodgy film quality but I loved that band.

Certain teams are going to need the assistance of their 12th man more than ever this weekend.

Also good to see Liverpool playing last. Let's see them play three consecutive Monday night matches and none of their pundit fanboys mention that it's unfair.

What's interesting is 3 of the most fouled players this season in the PL are 3 Arsenal midfield players.

Of course, as always this is fouls given by the ref and therefore not necessarily accurate. In Hazards case , it's the amount of times he falls over.
No surprise that Hazard and Zaha are top, for me. They get hacked to **** every week.
There's quite a number of chronic divers in the rest of the list, though.
Isaac Success must be miles ahead of everyone on fouls per minute. He rarely plays 90 minutes.
