Would always have been my number one target. Have said as much on here. Surprised he's available though. I'd have though he was exactly what Mourihno wants in a player.

Disagree on Bajcetic. In an injury hit side he was one of our best players. And he's still only 22. Huge if - if he can get over the injuries he'll be a top player.

I can't believe the entire forum can't be arsed to do a Sade joke.

We missed out on Guehi because they wouldn't drop their entirely reasonable price and ended up bidding that amount 12 hours before the transfer window shut (£35mill I think ?). Entirely on Hughes that f*** up.

Arranged marriage for you was it ?

I propose we do a going away do for him in the Albert. Hand out thousands of fliers, invite the players, put on the fliers Arne not invited. And book him an uber from the training ground to Manchester.

Hughes not getting held to account. Not sure how we could do that.

I do think we're a team in transition. Tactics have moved on - a lot depends on playing at least one and often two defensive midfielders. We don't have a single one at the club. That doesn't begin to justify keeping Slot on. He's not committed to the club, it's players or the city. He'll throw anyone except himself under the bus. He hasn't got any ability to develop creative players. His tactics are small time as are his substitutions and use of the squad. He's turned into a gobs***e who embodies the worst elements of Hodgson and Rodgers. It's only a matter of time before he has a go at Alder Hey. And to put the cherry on the cake it annoys me that he chooses to live in Manchester.

Watching it live VAR drew a line from the edge of the ball to the front edge of Wellbecks foot. It was clearly not parallel to the white line of the 6 yard box. The pictures released after the game didn't show this. Plain as day corruption.

Haven't watched it back and could be wrong but I thought we were on top for the first hour and should have been 3 or 4 up. The players legs started going to let Spurs more and more into it and with the sub we fell apart. It takes some doing to make that Spurs team look good but we managed it. The players aren't playing for Slot, they're not fit enough and I'm worried some of the better players might fancy a move. Slot should have walked months ago. The danger is not just not getting CL it's losing the best players and finding it more difficult to recruit who we want. If we aren't going to play like a Klopp team we desperately need a proper no 6. Camavinga is the dream or possibly Elliot Anderson. I'm not sure I'd have given Grav a new contract and hope we're not paying him too much because I don't see him fitting in if we play a proper 6. Here's that defensive stats analysis again :

Taxi for Slot

Rio made a huge difference. Ridiculous management that he doesn't get any starts ahead of Gakpo.

We've not played many worse halfs of football in the last 50 years.
