On the whole racism claim, are we actually certain there wasn't? I've heard plenty at the Lane over the years.
Did he ever come out with exactly what he heard ? of course he didn't because he didn't hear anything racial.In a stadium of 62,000 it's quite easy to mishear things. If you believe you heard anything racist (to you or anyone) you report it. Can't blame him.for reporting anything if he genuinely thought he heard it at the time. Anyway, the investigation found nothing. We all moved on. If he joins I'll support him. Hope everyone else does.
Racist.Did he ever come out with exactly what he heard ? of course he didn't because he didn't hear anything racial.
Just in case you’re in any doubt that’s called ‘discrimination’!All in all I would think the club should avoid any uncomfortable situation here and just move on to another target
How do you know that he lied?I can never forgive him for lying about our fans when he falsely claimed that he was racially abused. Don't want him anywhere near N17. Pass.
...at making up poppycock!!Is he any good?
Wet finger in the back of the cab? but she doesn’t make it 4th base.Let me ask you this: if a women publicly screamed at you in a busy nightclub, saying you’ve made racist remarks, tarnishing your name and reputation, would you still try and take her home at 2am?
Actually, scrap that....
It's really not.Just in case you’re in any doubt that’s called ‘discrimination’!
Whilst I appreciate racism, and accusations of racism should not be ignored or overlooked, it would be nice to see a few comments based on his actual footballing ability, or lack of.
Are some not wanting him purely based on his accusations.
Would he actually do a job for us, improve us. What's his strengths and weaknesses. I'm down for seeing a few comments about his actual ability.
For the record, whilst I'd certainly prefer Skriniar, I think Rudiger would actually add a bit more physicality to our defence.
Isn't Ornstein more of an Arsenal man, than a Spurs man?New piece in The Athletic, Ornstein and Honigstein contributed.
Tottenham are Rudiger’s preferred destination. His complaint about being racially abused during Chelsea’s 2-0 win there last December is not a factor and will not put him off. The north London club had looked at Milan Skriniar from Inter Milan. That is all but over so the Chelsea man is their main target.
However, Chelsea are reluctant to grant Rudiger such a switch. Relations between the two London rivals have not been good during the Roman Abramovich era. The last player to leave Stamford Bridge for Spurs was back-up keeper Carlo Cudicini 11 years ago and that was on a free transfer when the Italian was at the latter stage of his career. There is still some upset felt at Chelsea on being beaten by Spurs to the purchase of Fernando Llorente from Swansea in 2017, a player then coach Antonio Conte very much wanted.
It's funny that this Death Star club feels upset because we made a better offer to Swansea and Llorente.
Traditionally yes but he’s been decent for our info this window, though this seems to contradict rebrab who has had a better window than him so let’s see. Generally the athletic guys seem i ok as situational writers but I’m not convinced by their transfer reporting credentials. Case in point, they just hired the donut from Southampton who was insisting we weren’t getting Højbjerg for a penny less than £25m and he was more likely to go to Everton not long beforehand it broke that we’d got him for much less.Isn't Ornstein more of an Arsenal man, than a Spurs man?
He has been pretty good for us recently, broke the reguilon newsIsn't Ornstein more of an Arsenal man, than a Spurs man?
