    Yes like I posted it is down to our personal definitions. The origianl poster said 'major'. 9 starts and 14 starts = major??? I personally would say no - others would say yes. PEH has 7 starts this season is that 'a major part'?

    The word 'majority' is a derivative of the word major - so I would say if you play less then half the games that is not major. Others can apply their own definition.

    I guess that depends on your definition of "major" so here are the facts (Prem only top 6 finishes) to help people form their opinion; 14/15 9 starts + 5 subs 15/16 14 starts + 3 subs 16/17 18 starts + 5 subs 17/18 26 starts + 3 subs 18/19 20 starts + 7 subs 19/20 16 starts + 2 subs...

    Great servant, model professional and seems like a thoroughly nice bloke, but is symptomatic of our club and it's lack of silverware because he is, at best, slightly above average in terms of quality, yet we have persevered with him and even now fans are saying we should keep him as CB cover...

    So 'punkisback' you think the quality of the coaches in the Scottish Prem, The J1 League and The Australian A League are as good (if not better) as those in the EPL?

    Match Threads Spurs vs Arsenal

    It was either VDV or Deki who spoke post match about being 'more mature' as a team and individuals. I wonder if that was the message to them from Ange afterwards? If Deki throws himself to the floor it's a pen, if VDV throws himself to the floor when Havertz pushed him it's a free kick. The one...

    If VDV is not so good in thr air and we insist on zonal marking then put him on the near post sort of where Kane used to be - then at least the opposition have to get the ball high to clear him which means there is less chnace of it landing in the middle of our six yard box and more chance of it...

    Here's what Dier actually said " 'Interestingly, he really doesn’t do any tactical work. What he does is, every single training drill from Monday to Friday is drawn up to represent the way that he wants to play."

    I think it is set pieces which includes free kicks (Villa at home Everton away spring to mind). 14 goals out of 52 is 26.9% so over a quarter of our goals conceded from set pieces!

    Leicester's outlier title win aside, there is no blueprint for a manager leading a team to glory on a shoestring. So we have a manager with years of experience at levels below the Prem and we expect him to achieve what exactly with a limited budget? It's asking for a miracle almost. I posted...
