You'd been talking about him being benched for a while. I can only assume your coach thought Janssen wasn't ready?

Let me not start on my view of Poch's use of the squad this season.

All our decent players are being secured on a long term deal. Now any club interested must be willing to break their bank vault. It now gives the club the peace of mind to concentrate on building the stadium. COYS, COYS, COYS

Next up, Kane.
2 of the finest indigenous coaches Nigeria ever had lost in a space of 4 days. Dear Lord, is this a sign that you are taking away from us what we failed to appreciate? I pray for forgiveness of our sins. I pray for the humility to recognize our wrongs and the humbleness and wisdom to right our ways.

Good game versus City. However it is one game and 3 points. Need to focus on the next match. That said, Congrats to Josh Onomah for his call-up to the England U-21 team. How old is he again? 19?

Paul Mitchell is GONE!! WOW!! What happened?
Probably something to do with the N'Koudou deal.

Interesting stat I just read------Toby Alderweirel +Dele Alli,+ Eric Dier, +Christian Eriksen + Hugo Lloris = John Stones
Let me make it worse - Toby Alderweireld +Dele Alli,+ Eric Dier, +Christian Eriksen + Hugo Lloris + Harry Kane + Ryan Mason = John Stones
Makes perfect sense.

Man City =/= Spurs.

One is trying to win the League and the CL, while the other isnt.
Come again? Does it still make sense?

Congrats to our Son for winning September player of the Month. I pray this won't be the kiss of death that will see his goals dry up.

Don't worry Poch, keep winning and October Manager of the Month is yours

A different bit of news :tic:
Our ladies are just destroying every team in their division. After winning 2 out of 3 cup finals last season, they top their league and scoring as much as double figures in games.

You can see why this team is HOT. If only I was a bit younger :sneaky:

Ladies won their league at WHL last night. Congrats. They play-off against Blackburn for promotion to the next tier. They already retained another cup and are in two other cup finals. The old Lady, WHL, is delivering her last glory days before the final farewell

Well that award was his kiss of death and Poch decided to do his best not to win that award.

January comes up. Where shall we reinforce?

I am not convinced by Janssen. I really think we should get a striker in on loan for the mean time. Kane can go off form.

Central midfield, defence and GK are fine. Concern is definitely forward line.

Who can we get? Defoe is perhaps the only available in-form striker with PL experience available this January. Considering Levy's knack for only buying players with sell-on potential I doubt he will sanction such move. Isco is a player that add value to the team but who is going to displace plus he is not a striker? We may just have forget bringing anyone in this winter and focus on players like Marcus-Edwards Winks, Onomah, Carter and Janssen to do the deed and come good when called upon.
