You've done the right thing. I would never give my bank details to a stranger at the door or on the street

Teams would man mark the short pass option, so it would make it a little harder and at least that moves a body out of the meat wall

I can't imagine that the US FA were too happy with his High Performance interview. When asked what he most wants to win in the rest of his career he say the CL and PL and goes all dewy eyed, and then remembers to say the WC as a very late after thought

I'd like to see trials of that. I do wonder if you would just get teams lining up on the six yard line and charging towards the keeper when the corner is taken

I'm tempted by a rule change so that the six yard box has to be clear of outfield players until the corner is taken

I think that this is the third Spurs manager that he has done it to since leaving. That's two interviews that I have seen from him recently that were pretty much pitches to take over in the summer.

And get a better ball next season

With throw ins, I don't think that we need new rules but we should start enforcing the current ones fully. No one cares about taking a throw in from where the ball went out if there is little advantage from creeping up 5 yards. When you are about to hurl it to the penalty spot, that is different

10.02.2026 10:16 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

I think that there is also a risk imbalance between the attacking and defending teams. The attacking team gives away a free kick for a foul but the defending team gives away a penalty and a near certain goal. I am less certain on how to redress that

10.02.2026 10:16 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 3    πŸ“Œ 0

I think that we need to restore the balance at corners. I think that probably means protecting the keeper more, so crowding out the keeper and pulling on them is treated as obstruction.

I think that Poch was being consistent with what he said when he was managing us. He took a fair bit of flack for not taking domestic cups seriously because he thought that the PL and CL were the prizes with merit

I really worry that we will have squandered a soft run on games in March, if we leave it that late

I think that he often comes across as quite passive aggressive

He started off saying that he was a legend but then asked himself whether he won anything here. He might've been genuinely trying to remember his record but it didn't come across like that to me

His answer to the Poch question in the embargoed section was really bad and came across as a bit catty

For tonight, I'll have my train tickets and my match tickets on my phone. I'll be listening to something all the way up and back, and probably browsing, too. I wouldn't want to run the risk of running out of battery. I have a little magnetic power bank, I'll probably stick that on during the game

It goes back to the dog and cat theory of central defenders. Romero is 100% dog, he is always going to come to the ball. At 27, you cannot change that.

He wouldn't be the same player without the bite. I don't think you could, or should want to, take that out of his game.

I think that it is ludicrous to suggest that he had the time to have pulled out, once he had kicked the ball, on Saturday and he had every right to challenge for it.

What if you are out? What's the lowest battery that you would be comfortable leaving the house with?

The press officers will definitely brief him ahead of these. Frank has said before that they give him briefings on social media and what the papers have written. I think that he's just not very quick on his feet and his natural instinct is to downplay things
