    After El-Crapico last week, our league form now looks like how I'd pronounce Lidl after 10 pints.

    If Micky is injured because Ange rushed him back again, the manager needs to be hanged from whatever lamppost the club was formed under in 1882.

    'Monitoring his minutes'??? WTAF.... He had 45 midweek and is not even on the bench today. We have the most important game of the season on Thursday, so you would think that maybe another 20 today might be worthwhile? (Accepting the unproven fact that he was/is ready to return at all)

    We are ****ed, arent we? <doh>

    Yes, it doesn’t make sense at all. Surely he needs minutes to get match fit.

    Sounds like a man who’s got our number for the day

    Brentford manager:


    "I expect a lot of transitions, open situations for both teams. For us, it's to minimise the open situations going against us, so try to have plus one in the rest defence all the time when possible. And to try to exploit Tottenham when they're open.

    "Tottenham are really good in transitions, almost close to be as good as Liverpool. [Against] Liverpool we really managed that well but we had 10 very good situations where we didn't benefit from. Hopefully we can do that today."

    I actually think this is the first sensible decision the club has made all season.

    Today will be an extremely difficult game away to one of the in-form teams in the league with a powerful front line.

    If he'd played today and aggravated the injury, there'd have been an uproar.

    New Brentford goalkeeper today, we all know that means he will have a blinder today.

    Optimistic view that he will need to!
