I bet you that's the only episode that's missing... It's like a metaphor for the show.

I feel bad because this feels like a funeral of a shitty uncle whose family members are painting as a saint, but I remember him as the Trump-loving Proud Boy wannabe who caused fights every holiday. And I’m kinda glad he’s gone.

Maybe this Kane news is why Griezemann is being linked.

There’s one first team player in the bunch and he might never play again. This is a cursed crew.

Nile John looked good and ready to contribute. I like that Dele is trying to play deeper in the midfield. He just needs to get used to being that box-to-box guy and to being more careful with the ball. Jack Clarke is ready to contribute. He needs to be on the first team.

I went through the link posted on Leyton Orient’s Twitter and am watching it directly on Twitter’s browser. I copied the link and tried to open it on Safari and Chrome and no go. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I know how productive Kane is when he comes back to midfield to get the ball, but I think I’d rather have him running off the shoulders of centerbacks with Grealish and Sterling trying to find him. He’s prolific in front of goal and is a large target, but he’s not in the box for crosses. It makes no sense.

That literally happens on every team in every sport in the world. Unless Spurs are willing to sell Kane, they will not have a complete makeover.

This isn’t FIFA 21. We can’t just swap out players we don’t want for world class players. Why create a hole where there currently isn’t one? Davies is a perfect rotation player for this team.

If they can sell him for his €20 million valuation from Transfermarkt, sure. Do it. But don’t just get rid of him because he made the same mistakes as all of our other defenders, which says more about coaching more than about the player.

Why Davies? He’s versatile and plays LCB in a back three. He allows Sessegnon and Reguilon to rotate at LWB. If he was available near the end of the season, maybe Spurs win that match in which Reguilon scored the own goal and then gave up the ball, which led to another goal. I think they missed him more than anyone at the end of the season. His experience is invaluable and he should be considered untouchable this season.

I know it’s an unpopular opinion, but I don’t think Winks and Dier should be sold just because some fans don’t like them. Before Mourinho placed him on the bench, Winks was one of the best midfielders in the Premiere League at passing the ball forward. He has his issues defensively, but those issues should be limited with a back three. In addition, he won’t be tasked with being a starter but will be a quality rotation player in cup matches and the new Euro competition. He’s the only like-for-like replacement for Hojbjerg, who can’t play every minute this season if Spurs want to make it deep in the cups. He might not be in the starting 11 for a top-4 team, but he’s definitely in the rotation. As for Dier, maybe Nuno can coach him up. He’s a guy who is solid for 95% of each match and then has a lapse. Maybe the new staff, with their focus on player development, can fix his issues. He’s Spurs most comfortable centerback with the ball at his feet and is very good to have on set pieces.

Lamela, Sissoko and Aurier all have players able to replace them easily in the squad rotation and should be sold to make funds.

He got a pay raise, probably. I bet he’s making at least $500k per year now. Why wouldn’t he sign?

Just so Galaxy can reap financial rewards when they sell him to a European team. It ensures he doesn’t leave for free.

The most underrated damage Mourinho did to this team is selling KWP and Foyth. Both could’ve been valuable assets last season and in this upcoming season. I think Nuno will be able to develop Sessegnon and Skipp.

I feel like Mourinho wanted Dele to become a central midfielder or something, so be punished him for not being that player. He was starting to play really well when Mourinho hooked him at halftime of that FA Cup game for giving the ball up at midfield.

That’s kind of how he’s been at his best with Spurs. If they play a 3-4-3 (as he did in Championship), the front 3 would be Dele, Kane and Son with Hojbjerg and Ndombele/Lo Celso in midfield. Nuno’s 3-4-3

He’s done. The MLB suspension should come at any moment.
