    For once us Spurs fans are hating the international break rather than wishing for it.

    BRING BACK ANGE-BALL!

    Tedious days football for me yesterday, dreadful game at Priestfield where the current kings of the 1-0 scored a 96th minute winner with their first shot on target to go top of the league and then the 2nd half of the England match that was somehow worse than the game I had seen at the Gills.

    Rashfords substitute appearance was right up there with Winks at Everton as one of the worst ever.

    It was really appalling, wasn't it! For a guy who has been in decent form at club level, the curse of the Southgate Stagnation hit him hard! <laugh>

    I can't remember the players, but the subs in the AC Milan game at the lane ,even the management team did not have a clue as to what was going on ,Mason shrugging his shoulder to the team <doh>
    Maybe in hindsight it was no wonder Kane did the offshi
    So many bad things keep on coming back to me in flashbacks

    Hansi Flick has been sacked by the German national team after their 4-1 friendly loss to Japan.
    He's expected to be replaced by Julian Nagelsmann.

    Edit: First Germany coach to get the sack in the 123 years it's been a role.

    Herr Flick is not the Madonna, but that result was a big boobie.

    I still think that he can do a job for us, in the short-term at least.

    Of course he can.

    However the irony is rather than being run into the
    ground like last season, with no UEFA land etc
    this season Spurs will be struggling to keep his
    and others legs stretched until mid december.

    I'll be surprised if he doesn't play some part in virtually every game.
    I doubt he'll be too happy with being a regular sub, though.

    You don't want to discourage physical play,
    but CR7 is nowhere close to making contact
    with the ball.

    So make it a red : reckless play - no malicious intent.

    It's Serious Foul Play, for me. Endangers the safety of an opponent. Could have got him in the eye.

    I hear that match was played in Nevada's most famous city

    Don't believe me? Google "Ronaldo assault Las Vegas"

    Eriksen 9.92?
    Did he do something with loaves and fishes?
    Or was he running the 100m?
    That’s insane
    A Spurs/Utd midfield <laugh>

    It's based on the average of the two games, and Eriksen basically filleted San Marino

    He shouldn't have even been playing. It's a friendly. He's a guaranteed starter in competitive games. What is there to learn?
    ****ing stupid. Klinsmann out! <grr>

    He's starting the ludicrous game at St James in 45 minutes:
