How can it be that, two seasons in a row, we are down to literally one available centre back?

Well eff me sideways that was about the most Spurs five minutes I've seen in a long time.

Er, thought they didn't give reds with penalties anymore? o.o

*Obviously* I'm glad it was called offside... but that is ridiculous. Palace robbed of a goal there*.

(*thank god)

Unfortunately I can only see this match going one of two ways -

It's either going to be an improved but still inconsistent performance leading to a nervy win by the narrowest of margins...

Or we're going to utterly batter Palace.

COYS!

9️⃣9️⃣ more days of posting a poorly drawn World Cup moment every day until the tournament kicks-off or until we forget to post one

Today: it's 1998, and CuauhtΓ©moc Blanco introduces the world (and some especially alarmed-looking Chilean defenders) to the 'Blanco Bounce', the bunny-hopping little scamp

1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ days until the World Cup, so here's one poorly drawn World Cup moment every day until the tournament kicks off or until we forget to post one (I give it a week)

We'll start with Diana Ross failing to work the goalkeeper. She'll be disappointed with that.

For top laughs, at one point we were 5-1 up and yet they were leading on xG (1.05 vs 1.57) which is just... I don't even understand how that could possibly work unless were hitting nothing but worldies.

A screenshot of FM24 showing the post-match summary and stats of a cup match between Tottenham Hotspur and Grimsby Town, in which Grimsby somehow generated the same high xG as Spurs, despite having very little possession.

Of all the bullshit matches I've had in FM, this ranks among the bullshittiest. We're top of the Prem and on a 15 game winning run, they're in the Div 1 play-off zone. They carved out FIVE clear cut chances and generated very nearly the same xG as us from less than half as many shots. And the cards!

One was a builder, the other worked in a cotton mill. Generation before that included a railway worker, a carpenter, a farmer, and a don't-know-cos-he-didn't-hang-about-and-great-grandma-didn't-like-to-talk-about-him,.

This bit in the From Russia With Love game made me laugh out loud. You've got a fairly grounded, low key fight based on the one in the movie, then the most video game looking fucker of all time slides into frame.

I am confident that Serena Williams even now, at the ripe old age of exactly the same age as me but still doubtless many levels of fitness above me, could absolutely annihilate me at tennis while playing left-handed and blindfolded. My only points would be from double-faults.

This. So much this. Fans so often assume a player not busting a gut "doesn't care", when often it's more down to low morale and low confidence.

Yeah. Plus, even without the financial aspect, what kind of player wouldn't care about getting relegated? Even someone as nonplus as Benny Assou-Ekotto would probably still care!

I'm sure there was a EPL/Football League change that came in a few seasons back where players at relegated clubs took an automatic pay cut regardless of their contract (or perhaps *on top of* whatever was in their contract).

Realistically, how far up the table would 30 points put us at the end of the season?

Understandable levels of negativity with COYsky right now, but if I can offer one positive, Frank said we would play 10 perfect games.

We only have 10 PL games to go, and by my reckoning, we are still owed all 10 of those perfect games.

So, things are going to get better.
