Spurs are getting pumped by relegation fodder.
Brighton: £50m?? Well in, lads.
Chelsea: Pending results of The Operation
Leeds: Danj-Ames! Danj-Ames! Danj-Ames!
Liverpool: Because FM contract renewals are the best bit!
Manchester United: Ronaldo 1-0 (plus some other nobodies.)
The Villa: Young. 
Tottenham: Levy will be delighted to keep Charlie Kane around.
West 'Am: Big Mark Noble's presence is like three new signings.
You didn't list [somebody else] Webly, you cunt.
If we don't talk about 'tiers' ever again it'll be too soon.

Harry Kane
Can't keep the ball or make a decent tackle.
Did enjoy the tearful lost eyes of Fernandes yesterday, after the Konsa dive nearly helped us on our way back to the Championship two seasons ago.
Jose Mourinho.

That’s definitely a pen for Kane but didn’t get it because his teammates have spent the entire game throwing themselves to the floor.
Biggest takeaway from this game is that our left back isn’t our biggest attacking force for the first time since Wenger left.
It's pretty telling that as terrible as absolutely everyone in that Spurs 11 is, that's probably the strongest lineup and there is absolutely nobody on the bench to change the game.
Going from Champions League Finalists to that in 3 years is quite an achievement. You could put a vindictive Arsenal Fan in charge and they'd struggle to build a worse side. It's impressive.
Levy got too big for his boots and started listening to the super agents who pretended to be his mate so they could fleece him. buying big name players instead of good ones. 25 million quid for a Barcelona right back with 3 appearances was when you knew the project was dead.
Well, at least they haven't built a monolithic stadium that will weigh them down for a decade.
Yeah what idiotic club would think of doing that…
Pochettino once said something along the lines of "it's pointless having a nice house if you can't sort out the furniture".
Spurs are basically that idiot that won the lottery, bought a load of bangers to race in the garden and ended up back on the dole.
They're just far better at selling than they are at buying. Bale/Modric cash wasted on guff and they'd only have signed a load of nonsense if they sold Kane as well.
They've come close to buying quality enough times, they just decide against it and go for the cheaper option.
They decided on Gedson fucking Fernandes and Lo Celso rather than Bruno Fernandez, and they had Dybala all but signed until he wanted something to do with Image Rights included, so they signed Bergwijn instead.
That's the tip of the Iceberg too. Levy is the mum that always has a Pizza in the Freezer when you want a Domino's.
"We have a Ronaldo at home, right Harry?"
"Actually, I need to talk to you about something."
I can't pretend like I understand the Dybala image rights thing fully but it does sound like it's a bit of a nightmare; United pulled out of signing him for the same reason and it's not like we're averse to lobbing money around to solve problems.
What image rights as well? I don't think I've ever seen him on anything.
Indeed. I couldn't pick him out of a police line up.
Did he go to shit after or is it just how low the profile of Serie A is nowadays?
Can't believe you haven't seen Adverts for the Argentinian player who has spent his career in Italy. Absolute shocker that one.
Arsenal have apparently announced within the game that they will no longer take a cut of players image rights so they can get better players for lower wages.
Sergio Ramos used to be on bottles of Pepsi Max. If he was a big enough name to be rinsing English clubs for his image rights he would be on things outside of Italy and Argentina (and is he really on that much stuff in Argentina with his thirty caps off the bench?). It isn't 1987.
Real Madrid/Barcelona/PSG/Bayern in years they win are the only teams in town for the anglophone world. Italians don't register, even Ronaldo went a bit quiet in my consciousness while over there.
Dybala has been one of the headline players on FIFA 18 or something. Not on the cover but in-game/promo material.
Pogba is the only player to break that rule, although that's probably only because Man Utd were linked with him for a few seasons before "bringing him home".
Same with Sancho and German teams.
There used to be plenty of Serie A players front and centre in footbally adverts. Matey was about the fifth biggest name at Juventus at the time, and United will have been offering to double/treble his playing wages. No way were the proceeds from endorsing toilet roll in Argentina covering that, so there must be some dodgy third party aspect to it like there always is with South Americans.
I didn't realize at the time that Harry Kane both lost possession and then did the shitty slide tackle that set-up Arsenals third goal. Love it.
Also the MOTD commentator went big on Ramsdales pass to Xhaka for goal 2 being bad when the entire point is for Xhaka to turn and pass it on.
I think he scored yesterday.
It's OK not to be OK.
Maybe I should do this every time I skull one out of a bunker.
Not sure if it's just that thick-as-shit-dementia-ridden Keown driving it but the BBC are going heavy on this 'Arsenal could be back' narrative. They had an article up yesterday with a headline 'Arteta could be the new Wenger' which was apparently a quote by Clichy.
They comfortably beat Norwich and Burnley and Spurs were both fairly even games. Sit the fuck down.
I saw some comment on the BBC Livetext the other day to the effect that the worst thing about the opening weeks of a season is the desperation for absolutism in every outcome - City are fucked after losing to Spurs, Chelsea look unstoppable, Arsenal are going down after three games but BACK TO THEIR BEST after 6 - which I thought was pretty accurate. No point even looking at the table until November etc.
Yeah I'm absolutely sick of the media coverage where whatever happened last week is what will happen forever.
Jesus I just seen the Fernandes penalty on Instagram. He probably should indeed be getting some moral support.
Not to mention the podcast version in which Lars Sivertsen (there are others, but I'm hearing it his voice) smugly tells you he said this would happen all along, then the next weekend the opposite thing happens, and Lars is back on Monday to tell you, equally smugly, that he said that would happen all along, too.
I saw the back end of one of the league cup shoot-outs last week and it was marked by several players putting their efforts into orbit. Fulham v Leeds maybe? In stark contract to the other game, which I think was QPR v Everton where the pens were AFCON standard.
Stats-wise Fernandes must be pretty average at pens now, he's missed a few.
Giggles has instagram?
42 out of 46 converted says good old transfermarkt. 21 out of 23 for United. I was quite surprised to see United do the smart thing and keep him on them. Will be interesting to see what happens at the next one.
I thought he'd missed at least 3 for United. 23 penalties in just over a season and a half though? Maybe Old Jurgen was onto something.
I think I’ve read that exact post at least 4 times here. Probably once already from yourself too.Giggles has instagram?
That's 3 words short of his usual length of post too, the fucking melt.
I'm pretty sure it's Boydy every time.
I just thought it was his catchphrase like Jimmy's "heads have gone" or Kiko's N word usage on WhatsApp.
'Heads have gone' is also my irl catchphrase. I might take it on a theatre tour. If the Hairy Bikers can sell out G-Live then I can at least get it half full.

Come on, Gary. Put it together.
Has Gary Neville ever publicly endorsed (let alone proposed) a managerial sacking?
A few at Salford, presumably.
I did have a sense of déjà vu after I posted that. It is still shocking, to be fair.
He is actually Roy Keane.Giggles has instagram?
