Hopefully Doherty was just a dead leg as he has become an important player for us. I never thought I would say that!!
And Royal had a good game today he was solid and good going forwards. I still think we could strengthen in that area but we do have some good options now. Reguilon and Sessegnon would get into most premier league teams bar the top 3.
I would love Eriksen back as him with that front 3 has then potential to be awesome

I think he's a very solid RB in general, just perhaps not really a RWB or a "Conte-RWB" anyway. He's more Corluka than Walker if you get what I mean. Been linked with Atleti a fair bit lately and that'd be an excellent move for him if it happens, especially if Conte pursues a new RWB in the summer which I think is likely. He's too good to be a third choice option here and if we can recoup or even profit on what we paid in the summer whilst bringing in a player more suited to Conte's needs, it'd suit all parties I think.
 
He would appreciate the bully boy tactics Villa tried to employ. The fact that Spurs stood up to them and went on to win is not to be underestimated. 'The Lads it's Spurs' label has been severely challenged and I put that down to Conte.
If we'd had that mentality the season when Leicester won the league it might have been us at the top.

Is rcl about? whisper it ....... If Conte is with us for a couple of seasons we will be challenging.

I never said that! It wasn't me guv.

My family come from Trinidad so I grew up eating Saltfish.

I'm 55 yrs old and I have never experienced anything as salty as Souness crying after the game on Sky....

"But What MORE could Villa had done...they deserved to win for their first half performance."

Yeah .... errrrrr.... was unfair of our Keeper to do his job and make saves and how dare we score 4 goals... <laugh>
