Speaking of, I would love Tuchel as a manager. At this point I don't care about scoring goals, I'm tired of our midfielders acting like the field is some sort of avant-garde stage production where they do whatever the frick they want.

i hear they're shipping out benzema too, if they can get somebody like lukaku



They could bring back Morata. And then sell him to Arsenal. And buy Lukaku.

I'm guessing they want consistent results for their investment. I don't think they realized the job that Ferguson was doing and took it for granted. And Ferguson was great at teaching the transition game, and was one of those managers who could teach the counter-attacking game and the possession game. I actually liked watching Man U play under him.

Ask Tweezy, I've been on the Tuchel bandwagon for like 5 years. I'm in love with that dude.

I could mean both and it be the same thing. I'd love him for either. I'm mostly tired of Wenger whispering "be free" into each of our players ears before the game as his tactics talk.

It was awesome to watch.

Now they have a manager who favors possession above all else (even scoring chances) and is completely delusional.

So much so that nominally creative players like Mata and Herrera play scared.

He is really good. Hopefully we don't sell Lewis Cook this summer.

Exactly. It's so frustrating. He's gotta get out of there before he completely sucks the fun and potential out of Martial and Memphis.

I mean, Real Madrid is linked with a lot of things

Doubt very seriously that there's that much turnover.

Doubt they'll sell James. Might sell Isco. If they sell Benzema, they're probably going to have to buy a suitable replacement, plus another striker since they have limited striker depth.

I feel really bad for Rooney. He's destroyed himself for that club, and has been the best English player for a decade. Martial and Memphis will recover. Maybe not under Mourinho, though each can fit the counter-attacking game really well. When Shaw went down, Memphis's game became limited.

One thing about the transfer market now is that it seems the margins are thinner than ever. There is going to be some player who plays super well at the Euros and Copa America who is going to get a big money move. We don't know who that is yet.

Pochettino is the GOAT.

No team has a brighter future than Spurs right now. It is critical that we keep everyone. Alli, Dier, Kane, etc. All must stay no matter the cost. But nobody is more important than Mauricio Pochettino right now.

As long as the Brits say "The MLS" I think it's all fair game...
