    On the plus side, Napoli have decided to make us feel better about ourselves by conceding four times as many goals to Milan in 67 minutes as we did in 180...

    I don't necessarily agree with boehlys transfer strategy but if i had to put money on Chelsea getting another trophy first or spurs i reckon we could buy one before you

    Tbf i wouldnt totally blame him for our mess and the fact that he is an excellent coach when he has been given time is exactly the sort of coach spurs should be going for. Someone who will take players and improve them and craft a team.

    However, i think it would be a bad appointment now even though he is the sort of coach you want as he will now be tainted goods having "failed" as a chelsea manager. I reckon the spurs supporters will have cooled on him with that tag so they would turn on him should he have a rough start when hes shown at every club he will put things correctly with time.

    Unfortunately for him, teams at the top don't give their managers time (to their folly) imo.

    Yeah I think most Spurs fans have understandably had enough of Chelsea thrift store castaways.

    I agree.

    Chelsea have the "right stuff" to attracts the Romans of
    this world to buy them (just as the Spanners have the
    "right stuff" that attracts the D1ldo bros of this world) .

    Broke the record the biggest Wembley crowd for a match between 2 sides from the third tier of English football 79,389 beating the 76,935 that attended the 2000 play off final between Gillingham and Man City.

    Apparently ten Hag is becoming increasingly impatient with Sancho.

    We know how you feel, pal. We’ve got about 7 or 8 Sancho’s of our own, just maybe without £75m price tag.

    Anyone looking forward to Sky’s game tonight - the mid table clash between Chelsea and Liverpool?
    If Chelsea win, they might to be able to push on for a top half finish<doh>

    Chelsea have picked a team that appears to make sense:

    Not sure about Liverpool's, but Klopp's made some changes:

    The FA have appealed Mitrovic's ban, presumably because they want it to be longer.

    Just seen the Leicester-Villa highlights. Ashley Young is truly a maestro at diving. Peerless in fact.

    Great finish by Ferguson. Opened his account for Ireland during the international break, too.

    He's got star quality and a real eye for goal.
    Love watching Brighton. Dare I say they have a look of 2016 Spurs about them....<laugh>

    I'd say 2014 Swansea for now, because it's not entirely clear how much of what they're doing is down to Potter and De Zerbi, and how much is down to the structure they have in place making the managers look better than they are
