That's a good point. Going there it would be a new language, they drink loads, it's crowded, smelly and a bit run down. But at least it's in the same country.

He'd be going to Manchester, not Liverpool

Kane would likely have a better time with injuries with a club like Man City, he's one or two knocks away from something which could ruin things IMO. I do wonder if potential buyers will have one eye on his injuries and if he's actually already missed the boat?

Couple of quotes from JM today raise a few doubts with me, I'll always back the manager of my club but it's a very different Maureen I am seeing now. I wonder if there are any performance clauses in his contract?

[Guvernator]

It's not really a different Maureen though is it. He's reverted to type, i.e. blaming everyone except himself. He's done it at pretty much every club he's been to when things start to go south.

They’re both going to feel rough after life in the golden streets of Tottenham

How can you say Kane is not 'as good' as Bale mk1?

Not sure what mk1 means and I understand that you'll always struggle to measure players individually, but look at their medals. Bale scored a bicycle kick in a UCL final.

Do you think Kane is twice as good as Bale ever has been?

Luke Chadwick has a Premier League winners medal and Harry Kane does not therefore by your logic Luke Chadwick is a better player than Harry Kane.

I said 'you'll struggle to measure players individually' and I said medalS - yes you get some players who have the odd one, Bale has 4 UCL titles - that doesn't happen by chance and yes he has been surrounded by betters players, he earned the right to be there consistently. Kane might have been able to consistently be in that environment too, Luke Chadwick was not.
Flip it round - my original point was the other poster saying Kane is twice as good as Bale ever was seems ludicrous to anyone but a Spurs fan

More articles seem to suggest Maureen is on borrowed time.

Next 12 days is crucial, looks like they will replace him in the summer as players 'tire of his tactics'

He may be convincing himself all is well, but it seems to be unravelling like Kanye West, with the defiant speeches and denials

I think Jose has figured out that once you are a 'name' then it is better to be a crap manager than a good one.

Put a multi-million exit clause in your contract and you can get sacked every 2 years and make a fortune. It must be much more lucrative than actually being successful.

These early Europe cup games are really annoying. 5pm WTF !? most people still have stuff to do at that time.

I read a comment on BBC Sport during one of your recent games saying Jose deserves congratulating on his incredible efficiency at Spurs in reducing the usual 2-3 year cycle from new job to big payoff.

Alli - Anything Giroud can do I can do better

[anonymous-user]

He'll be dropped for 3 games now, too extravagant

Flash git. Jose will be furious, the ball back to Hart was clearly on and easier.

Bring back Tim!

I was eating my dinner - were the second and third goals any good - wondering if it's worth looking up the highlights later.

I know Bale gets a lot of st on here but happy to see him on the score sheet again.

[mickk]

Are we playing tonight then?

[48k]

Good, professional result. Can't ask for more than that. They didn't give us much to worry about but Dele is starting to look back to the Dele of old, another good performance from Bale and great to see Vinny on the scoresheet again.

We've got a couple of - dare I say it due to Spursy - "easier" league fixtures coming up - wonder if we'll see Dele or Bale breaking in to the starting line up?

[mickk]

As soon as Jose sees the headlines of 'Start Bale and Dele' he will keep them on the bench.

Or play them right and left full back
