I said that a few weeks ago, Doucoure under Poch would be dynamite. Currently kept out of the French side by Pogba, but his time will come, class act. He is exactly the type of player Spurs need, someone who will go past his man (or men) before making a cutting pass rather than passing it sideways or missing the target. A sort of Lamela+, Lamela tends to go past men and then launch it over the bar, Doucoure is far more productive.
So, if West Ham sack Moyes, Pulis is available........? They have Carroll already.....................this was meant to be.........................Hoof.
Yes but last week they didn't have a bus. They are now acquiring one. please log in to view this image
Didn't think of that. There's also the possibility of a Stoke return, which would free up another Wales candidate.
Bale has a long throw (remember the one in Madrid that VDV almost scored from ?? ) . With Pulis : a marriage made in (bread of) heaven.
We must hold some sort of record of facing the most teams in their first game under a new manager. I doubt they'll have someone in place by the weekend though and probably saw that fixture as a write-off anyway, giving them a good fortnight to find a successor. Bit puzzled as to why they didn't pulis the plug (sorry) before the intl break as waiting to play the reigning champions wasn't exactly going to teach them anything they didn't alreay know. My money's on Fat Sam.
Jamie Reid's Sex Pistols image would seem appropriate for any Pulis team........ please log in to view this image
Current favourites for the West Brom job are Derek McInnes of Aberdeen and Michael O'Neill of Northern Ireland. More of the same?
A big word of praise to Callum Wilson following his hat trick on Saturday. To return from one cruciate injury is difficult enough, but to return from two, shows a remarkable level of determination and patience. It's not so long ago that a cruciate injury almost certainly meant the end of a career, so well done to the player for coming back and playing at the top level again.
