I know I am petty... But..
Woolwich are 2nd and..
"BlueCo Chelsea, a place where blaming the manager for the on-field spectacle feels a bit like complaining that the scientists inside the Chernobyl nuclear plant still haven’t washed up the canteen coffee cups." www.theguardian.com/football/202...

Still feel he naturally takes a turn back vs having that flex to be able to do both. The ankle injury from cash was a huge part of that.
Also agree, Frank's bullshit negativity has lot to answer for (as do those that hired him)

Matty Cash will always have a lot to answer for in my eyes. Lolo really struggled on half turn since then.

But not for someone who could play midfield, sit, and pass. Because why would you need to pass the ball through CM? that'd be madness. Why have passing 6s when we can have another running 8...

Remember. Lange had to balance the squad for European squad limits next year. Esp as we have 0 pipeline for qualified club trained players. His hands really were tied..

Oh, don't get me wrong. He pisses me off everytime I see him on the pitch. Mostly because it was so obviously a stupid deal for a profile we just didn't need. Him being chels and a bit shit don't help either.

Peak solankes press is insane. Not back to it yet but closer. And that was best I've seen from Gallagher (low bar.. But.. Credit where it's due)

Spurs should fire Lange and Vinai today. As a treat.

Thought Biss did an all too familiar half worldie half bozo performance..

Win next 4. Mathematically safe. Sing "17th I don't know how.. " for 90 mins giving 0 fucks against Everton. maybe with some "I don't care about Vinai" (or lange)..for good measure...

Maybe with a soft pen to win it...

Mate, that would be sweet!

(but fuck me, Vinai should be sacked)

Forest probably beat Burnley. That's the 5 pts. But, with Europa they have
Sunderland (a), villa (H) , Chelsea (a), villa (a) Newcastle (H), utd (a), Bournemouth (H)
We have
Wolves (a), villa (a but between Europa), Leeds (H), chavs (a), everton (H)
If we play like today, there's a chance.

Yeah. I'm the same. I think before today I was deep down convinced it was done. We were down.
But we played some football. Not great. But some. Beat wolves. Hope villa prioritise Europa (and that saps forest) and beat Leeds. And do better vs Everton than forest do vs iraolas farewell.

And just no back lift. Amazing strike.

I got selling brennan. We got good enough money for someone we knew wouldn't take us on. But then we did Jack all. It's like the no signing period. Mad.

Good Biss is midfield is a huge unlock. Always has been.
Given we don't get kudus maybe he is the unlock that means we aren't fucked. madders or kulu I don't buy. But if we don't change the team much I don't see a path if I'm honest.
#awaydays next season at least I guess...

Bergvall looked rusty, and like a box to box 8 playing as a 10
(wont keep piling on Gallagher..)

He just ran straight past and then didn't close for their goal. Loads of shit passing. Just generally shit. Because he's shit.
(for the avoidance of doubt, I'm not a massive fan of his..)

Yeah, I think if you swap Gallagher for Xavi and push bergvall back, and tel on left (prob push richy central and drop dom) and wed have done better.

"Well thought out and opportunistic"
Smacks of quality strategic thinking there..

Well. He spent money on Gallagher. So. Not sure I'd *want* any more lange panic signings...

I started looking at odds just for that. It's mental. The refs attrocious, and, we seem brain dead to it..

It came off the thigh of the Sunderland player who slid in. (and if it was because RKM kicked it it would be a goal kick not a drop ball)

I assume that's the rules.. But how the fuck can he say "Sunderland player touched the ball first" followed by "drop ball"???

Won't be..

We maybe shit. But wow. They really are a special lot aren't they...

Was it Alex Scott who's family are all spurs??

I think (maybe biased as Londoner with teens) that an initially opt in approach coupled with all new phones come with a "do NOT forget this" step on setup with very explicit opt out would be the best approach. I get it's not easy / without unintended concequences but does (naively?) feel solvable.
