Nah.....Nacer Chadli, was 22. I like your Davinson Sanchez No. 6 though.
Tripps was 16 before Kyle did a runner and he took No. 2
Ryan Mason was No. 8....

Watching Liverpool cruise thru this West Ham game, has refuelled my anger at letting that 2 goal lead slip against those muppets!

We need to get everyone fit and then take on City. Seems the rest of the league is dependant on us again, like last year when we ended City's run in October and then Chelsea's run in January. I think it will be a cracking game especially as they play more like Madrid and Liverpool rather than Man United or Crystal Palace. Bring them on.

I think you are old right old chap. Everybody and his hamster is saying the title is done and dusted, City can't be caught, but they can. OK, we are 8 points behind them at the moment but thumping them in December and April would make the gap less than a one game difference. We have to match or better what they do of course, but we have a team that can do that.
There seems to be a feeling among some folks that we are not doing so well in the premier League this season, that is bollocks. Last year was our best ever in the Premiership and after 11 games we had 21 points and were 5th, this season we have 23 and are 3rd (joint 2nd). Blimey! Proper Spursy thinking we have started the season a bit slowly eh?
Premier League Stats After 11 games - Tottenham Hotspur
The big question in my small brain is - do we have the squad and the maturity to give 100% in the premier league AND the Champions league? The geezers is human beans, young ones and who would blame them if a big chunk of their focus was the next big European game when they are travelling to the arse end of Burnley or travelling abroad to fucking Wales for the Swansea game? Are we going to see another January transfer window when an investment from Levy could make a huge difference or will Saha II and the new Admiral be arriving? Don't get me wrong, they were good geezers and top value for money (fuck bleeding all),but what might have been if he had splashed the cash that winter?

From Goal.com
Pep Guardiola has the most expensive team in Europe at his disposal, but it is Spurs star Harry Kane who is the Premier League's most valuable player
Manchester City have the most valuable squad in all of Europe's top five leagues, with Tottenham Hotspur a close second.
According to research from the CIES Football Observatory on the aggregate transfer values of each player in their team, City are one of four teams with a collective squad worth more than €1 billion.
With a value estimated at €145 million, Kevin De Bruyne is the most expensive player in City's team, but in Leroy Sane, Raheem Sterling and Gabriel Jesus, Pep Guardiola has three others at his disposal rated to be worth more than €100m. Overall, the current league leaders' squad is worth €1.196bn
The Premier League's most valuable player does not play in light blue, however. Yet again on fire for Tottenham with 13 goals in 14 games to add to four in his last four England appearances, Harry Kane is valued at €186m by CIES, though it falls short of the reported €225m Spurs are said to be demanding from Real Madrid.
With the star forward boosting them, Spurs' team is tallied up with a worth of €1.173bn, just €23m less than City, and €43m more valuable than Barcelona (€1.130bn).
Surprisingly, Lionel Messi is not Barca's most expensive star. Despite his struggles to find the net this term, it is Luis Suarez who tops the list at €134m.
Team Squad value (€) Most expensive player (value)
Manchester City €1.196bn Kevin De Bruyne (€145m)
Tottenham €1.173bn Harry Kane (€186m)
Barcelona €1.130bn Luis Suarez (€134m)
Chelsea €1.044bn Eden Hazard (€121m)
Manchester United €919m Romelu Lukaku (€165m)
Real Madrid €903m Cristiano Ronaldo (€96m)
Liverpool €901m Mohamed Salah (€101m)
PSG €864m Neymar (€218m)
Atletico Madrid €800m Antoine Griezmann (€147m)
Juventus €743m Paulo Dybala (€166m)
Napoli €721m Lorenzo Insigne (€105m)
Arsenal €666m Alexandre Lacazette (€89m)
Bayern €624m Robert Lewandowski (€102m)
Monaco €604m Thomas Lemar (€97m)
Roma €595m Radja Nainggolan (€75m)
Chelsea (€1.044bn) and Manchester United (€919m) complete the top five with Eden Hazard (€121m) and Romelu Lukaku (€165m) their top-valued players respectively.

So with a net spend in the black over the last, what, 3-4 seasons we still have the second most valuable squad in Europe. That is fucking incredible, even taking the massive boulder of salt with goal.com.

I always wonder how they come up these valuations. Transfermarkt give a much lower market value for us, but theirs is equally unrealistic as they value Dele at £53m and Harry at £72m - we all know that those two would not be sold for less than £250m! I don't suppose it matters as they would have used similar valuation methods for all the clubs in their list so the comparisons might be fair.
If I was feeling like a total cunt I could say we have got lucky, just for fun let's have a look at seven of our starting lineup against Real Madrid - Christian, Toby, Kieran, Eric, Dele, Harry and Harry, how much did that lot cost us? £41m. How much are they worth? I would geustimate around half a billion, £480m was my estimate. ! Lucky or fantastically shrewd signings / player development by Levy, my money is on luck because he's a cunt.
Really the value of the individual players is meaningless, a team of disgruntled superstars managed by that dutch 'genius' would be thumped by a team of drunk blokes selected from the stands by the Poch.

Yes precisely. A bit harsh on Levy who continues to transform the club to keep pace at the top of the tree in the modern football world. A cunt maybe but a clever cunt and our cunt, rather than some of the more genuine variety at other clubs. Better the cunt you know...I think that's how the expression goes?

Yep, I have been misunderstood over in Kiddy Corner many times for saying that I think Levy is a total cunt who I would never invite round for tea or do a business deal with, but I don't have an alternative under the fucked up corporate football we have these days. Personally I would like the season ticket holders to own 51% minimum of the club and the chairman would be an employee. He is a cunt, but all the other cunts are probably double-cunts.

From the club site (for anyone who is unaware, at half time in the recent EFL cup match and with West Ham losing 2-0, their fans left their seats and tried to break down the partitioning/segregation in the grandstand walkways to get to the Spurs fans at the East end of the stadium). I'm guessing a 2.15pm kick off on a Sunday is less than ideal from a police perspective. There won't be much 'goodwill to all men' and Christmas spirit being shown that's for sure. I wouldn't be surprised if the match was moved to 12.00noon and local pubs closed.

Problem is there is already palace city scheduled for midday on NYE,I guess sky or BT,plus MET police,TFL and national rail and then the clubs cant logistically sort it.So 4pm on NYE 3,000 west ham fans and +40,000 spurs fans trying to travel home on a reduced service (NYE and a Sunday),add to that policing and I guess Brent council having issues on one of the biggest holidays of the year,ridiculous situation the premier league has got itself in with tv scheduling.I even feel sorry for arse fans away at WBA in a game that finishes about 6.30pm,where are concerns for travelling fans by the people in charge?
The tail is wagging the dog,tv companies need football more than football needs tv coverage 7 days a week.We as fans are part of the game,all around the world people tune in to see the teams and experience the atmosphere created by fans,take the atmosphere away the product is seriously reduced,more so than if the playing standard dropped.
Latest idea being banded around by the premier league is 8pm sat kick offs,great for armchair supporters,not for travelling fans and their family life.Not sure who is most complicit here,sky/BT,the PL or the clubs wanting the money??Guess the clubs need it the most when Ozil wants over £300k a week,game is out of control as far as attending fans are concerned IMO.

I agree with your whole argument and points in principle, but I'm not sure the above is true, at least at the ever increasing obscene levels of wages and transfer fees. I don't know how to burst the bubble, or at least deflate it significantly, but if I had the required pin, I would apply it. it is a complete nonsense that clubs are now paying over £100m for top players and salaries on top at £200k + per week. That is a 25 year old earning over £10m a year basic, plus TV rights, sponsorships, endorsements, plus whatever. I know it's naive but these guys need to distribute some that back to agencies that are working for clean water, health, jobs, housing and education in the slums of Brazil, Argentina and Africa and needs elsewhere across Europe and the world. Fucks me off, whether it's ours (not yet, but £5m a year is more than enough) or anyone else's players.

Anyone else feel that Lukaku should have been suspended through retrospective action for kicking out TWICE at Bong?
The ref didn't see it & none of his assistants caught it either, but if they did, Young's deflected goal wouldn't have counted & ManU wouldn't have the 3 points.
I honestly still don't understand what the goal line judge's purpose is. I have never seen them make any call & this occurred right in front of him.
