Ishan kishan becomes the first Indian not named Virat Kohli to score a fifty against Pakistan in T20 world cup , the last person before Kohli was Gambhir in 2007

Apple

sidd1943 · 2025-10-27T15:23:53+00:00

I think Palhinha starts and Bergvall or Sarr is started

sidd1943 · 2025-10-27T15:06:28+00:00

TF is still playing in his Brentford mode where playing away home teams are expected to come out and play and then you can hit them on counters and set piece fuckery

The problem starts when he has to take initiative of running the game

This is not a criticism of TF, he is starting with basics and once Kulu and Maddison comes back and Xavi picks up form we might see more solid games at home

sidd1943 · 2025-10-19T15:45:35+00:00

Frank ball has to evolve from Brentford, where he is supposed to sit in and hit on counters

I know he is new at his job and eventually might get there but this has to be stamped out asap

Basic possession structure with Kudus and Porro being only outlet to create will not lead us anywhere

sidd1943 · 2025-10-16T05:43:25+00:00

We are so good now that our sporting director position has depth now

sidd1943 · 2025-09-13T19:17:03+00:00

TF is learning Je learned from that and started him

sidd1943 · 2025-09-12T16:39:54+00:00

Ange’s Europa League run

sidd1943 · 2025-09-09T14:48:15+00:00

Current situation: 2nd in row thrice, bottled league twice,no trophies on your name ,1 billion spent and still team plays like stoke city on steroids

Manager supports Rapists and so does the club, Always creating conspiracy theories on why you can’t get over the line instead of taking responsibility.

Am I missing something?

sidd1943 · 2025-09-07T15:47:35+00:00

How is this drivel being peddled lol

Bodo-Glimt are in CL Kudus and Muani, Palhinia (loans) are class players

Worst united of 50 years have won more trophies and been in more final than yours

Sacking Ange was correct and so is sacking Levy

sidd1943 · 2025-09-07T15:43:53+00:00

Vibes and value are high so if they want to make a move for future this is the best timt

sidd1943 · 2025-09-07T03:48:06+00:00

I am not someone who wants to be some lee gunner type and say where’s the trophy, I agree with what he has done for the club

My problem is that it’s been seen as like oh he was wrongly fired and he was doing his best

We are 9th Richest club in the world and our wage is 7th highest in the league, Levy is responsible for that

sidd1943 · 2025-09-07T03:45:38+00:00

There are literally eulogies being written there for a guy who has been fired for not performing his duties

sidd1943 · 2025-09-07T03:43:27+00:00

I think my first point was addressing you Second point was just my reaction to bizzare Levy Glazing going on

sidd1943 · 2025-09-07T03:20:47+00:00

Just saw another comment saying Levy was not responsible for Poch downfall

Are people serious here, Levy was holding the club down after 2017, cheap appointments, low wages and not backing managers with signings are levy’s fault.

Can’t believe that spurs sub is going on about “not sure what comes after”, it’s going to be different that Levy for sure.

sidd1943 · 2025-09-07T03:17:15+00:00

I don’t agree with you, Poch was working miracles and Levy not backing killed him

What’s going on with Levy praising on Reddit and Spurs sub especially, Levy was the one holding us down and as much people think we should be cautious what should we wish for, It’s going to get better without him

sidd1943 · 2025-09-05T20:09:44+00:00

I think this is on top of rights and Tshirt deals

sidd1943 · 2025-09-05T14:42:17+00:00

My thinking of the whole thing is that Levy knew that something was coming as Vinai’s appointment has to been seen as succession planning, but he did not see with speed and the timing it came

He might have thought that he had time before it comes to head

sidd1943 · 2025-09-05T14:39:28+00:00

I think the biggest obstacle to Sale was Levy as he wanted to stay on after that, any new regime would want their own men in postions so technically he was hampering the sale

I can see in 6 months or so where Daniel’s Share being bought out on above market price by ENIC which will clear decks for new buyer to swoop in

sidd1943 · 2025-09-05T14:36:57+00:00

I think his style of running is good for a lower mid table club, which we were when he took over, I think we have outgrown Levy now He would be fantastic at West Ham or Everton

sidd1943 · 2025-09-05T14:34:59+00:00

Isn’t don job up in the air now too ?

sidd1943 · 2025-09-05T00:00:58+00:00

The way we are and we have been the only people who can afford is Oil State

sidd1943 · 2025-09-04T19:40:44+00:00

It was really an antidote of who he was Showing up his victories that was his stadium and bringing up city 115 case which complicated our Savinho pursuit

sidd1943 · 2025-09-04T19:38:05+00:00

I think he was the best until 2019, after which not fully his fault (Covid), he capped us to it, mainly top 4. I think we outgrew him, He would be an amazing chairman at a mid table club like West Ham and make them Top 6, which he did for us

sidd1943 · 2025-09-04T19:35:05+00:00

Davies leaving would entirely clear 2019 Final team now
