Don't think we could register him until January anyway.

Hobbling at the end of the Man Utd game

In a word?

They've a 6 page thread on Nick Pope's injury. Apparently we're begging for De Gea to join, or we're getting an emergency loan even though we've got 4 senior 'keepers on the books. We'll probably get someone from the Saudi league. Peppered throughout that thread are hopes and prayers for career ending injuries for not just Pope but for any of our players. Inherently classy

If we had more goals, more points and more players, I'd say we were.

Don't come at me. Aperture on notice, I will expose you.

It's their press we need to worry about, to be honest. No team allows the opposition fewer passes per defensive action than Spurs do. Ours is good (14.5), theirs is much better (8.45). However, they're 6th for goals scored per game, and 9th for chances created. By comparison, we're 3rd for both. 12 sides give up fewer chances per game, and only 10 sides concede more goals. By comparison only 2 sides give up fewer chances and 1 side concedes fewer goals.

I'll expect my season ticket in the post.

We've not had the easiest away fixtures, to be fair. Man City, Brighton, West Ham, Wolves. It's only really Sheffield and Bournemouth where you expect all 3pts.

Lets see where Villa are in 3 weeks time.

Man City and Arsenal are very good, but seem to have brain farts. Liverpool looked so shonky at the back, but they're so good going forward. Spurs look so shonky at the back but good going forward. Man Utd are so, so easy to play through. They've got very talented players who can dig them out, but until they sort their shit out they're a hot mess. Chelsea are disjointed and Pochettinon still doesn't know his best team or how they should play. Villa are good, but just not good enough, certainly against the better sides. They're yet to face Man City or Arsenal. They've lost to us and Liverpool. And have only had 2 clean sheets in the PL.

If we had a full strength team I'd be buzzing but I'm just concerned about them kicking lumps out of our key players

No way would we be signing another keeper, there've been games where we have 3 on the bench! Dubravka is fine as a deputy, and Karius is fine as 3rd choice. There's only 5 teams who face fewer shots on target.

Posh and Yorkshuh? Harrogate or Ilkley then.

Finally got a reply "No, didn't watch it. Knew we'd lose." 😂 fucking liar.

2 negatives from tonight; Pope getting injured I didn't watch it at the pub so I didn't get to enjoy the stages of grief play out on the faces of all the Man Utd fans round my way. Best I got was seeing my goading "Did you watch the game?" text get read, then 'xxxx is typing', then nothing sent back. They are so easy to play through. That saviour of the English midfield Mainoo was utterly anonymous. Heir to Ronaldo's throne Garnacho was so overawed by Trippier that Keiran didn't even need to pocket him. Rashford did nowt and Bruno-from-Wish's sole contribution was giving us a breather by feigning injury.

Is that 6 wins in a row at home?

They'll only show their consternation on twitter and by leaving early. Anything coming close to resembling a protest is far too mag-like for the likes of Uncal Mick

Why don't you look her up?
