    Keane makes for a good pundit, just for the over the top reactions and heartless comments. His managerial career never really took off, probably for being too hot headed. I'd rather have people like him on sky, than idiots like Redknapp and Merson.

    Damn straight. Keane is a misery tbf, but I think without that attitude he wouldn’t have won as much as he did. Losing wasn’t an option. Imagine if Pogba had that mind set.

    I’ve just seen they are eying up someone that was at Benfica actually. I understand re fans but they can influence owners. I don’t feel Puel would have been binned so fast if our knuckle heads fans hadn’t turned against him despite him turning our squad around. The same people will let Brendan do what he wants without voicing concerns because of how white his teeth are so it will put no pressure on the owner. but yeah Villa’s will probably pull the trigger.

    Micah Richards is very good but may get fired after he dared to say Man Utd or Chelsea don’t have a god given right to top 4 and would have to suck it up if they missed out pre match yesterday. Doesn’t fit the sky narrative!

    He’s shown as a pundit why he never made it in the field of management. The guy was a winner on the pitch but he completely lacks perspective and comes across like he’d have the man management skills of a 1970’s prison screw.

    I think he took a lot from Clough. Clough would bomb in today’s world of footballing fannies. Your Keanes, Sounesses and Fergusons have been replaced with tusses like Trent, Bobby and Dele.

    Jose Mourinho says he intends to get Tottenham back "where we belong"

    Bad news for Spurs fans with Jose aiming for mid table from that comment.

    Defending from the front to snatch draws away to West Brom.

    Superb maths work there mate <laugh> ... suspect I've watched much more of him this season than you have, and he is not showing any signs of slowing down, plus he seems to be becoming a more rounded footballer ... so you'll forgive me for dismissing your opinion as "the usual drvel laden frustration" ...

    He keeps himself in great nick and, like Ian Wright before him, coming late to the top table appears to be working out very well for him and the club ... certainly can't see any of your current bunch outscoring him next season ... can you?

    Levy must have been ****ing desperate when he brought Maureen in. There's undoubtedly a massive severance package written into that deal.

    Love or hate Klopp, this was funny...

    Pre season tour Pep and Jose are also there.

    Klopp being interviewed.

    Journo. What are your aims for the tour?

    Klopp. To make Jose Mourinho smile.

    Funnily enough Wrighty hit 30 goals for Arsenal at the age of 33. He then dropped off rapidly and left a year later, but Vardy won’t age obvs....ever.

    Yeah I can btw, I’d take Richarlison to outscore him in the league next season (excluding penalties)

    What's that got to do with anything ? We've had a calamitous season overall. I'm surprised we ended up in 8th after that **** show.

    The point was that when Maureen signed that contract with Spurs, he would have had Levy over a barrel.

    it's funny how closely intertwined you two "north" london clubs are.

    Both new stadiums, both riding the top 4 gravy train, both mid table clubs.

    Mourinhos got levy by the balls. Ozil and soon to be aubamayang soon to become billionaires.

    both owned by unambitious billionaires.
