Doesn't Sherwood have the best winning % of any Spurs manager ever? They haven't been that bad at all since AVB left. And can still match their best ever Prem point total. Let's not act like they were relegation fodder..4/29/2014 12:18:53 PM |

it looks like they are prepared to pay his buyout so you'll have a transfer surplus post WC
From personal experience, the sooner you come to grips with the inevitability of it, the easier it is to handle when it actually happens.

Riiiiight. That's why deep into August you still thought there was a chance Bale would stay.
I'm not worried if he does or doesn't go, we've been over that. Suarez is sick and I'd love for him to stay but I also think we saw peak Suarez this season and it'd be nice to cash in appropriately instead of waiting for an inevitable suspension/injury and miss the opportunity. FSG has made transfer funds available before CL money and before any potential Suarez sale. There was always going to be enough for a couple of good players.4/29/2014 1:42:48 PM |

I'd rather not play in the Europa next season.
We lose every match in the league after playing midweek, and with a new coach it's just easier to let him concentrate on England.

^^Not necessarily. If Liverpool wins this year, their "fans" will prob come out of the woodwork. I have a friend who was a United "fan" up until this season. He has since jumped ship and is now a Chelsea "fan". This is the same guy that, when Sir Alex Ferguson retired and I asked him his thoughts on it, he replied with "Who?" 4/30/2014 3:40:24 PM |

^ they do, still its a hassle and I would rather win the league/finish top 4 than the Europa. Man United has the option of fielding a largely young team in the competition however. Not sure what the options are at Spurs. I still don't want an unnecessary distraction for the team during a league campaign. Would rather get a top 4 spot.

The only reason I watch EPL at all is because several guys in our office are huge soccer fans and they were betting Bojangles Cajun Filet biscuits on the games and I wanted in on that action. A buddy of mine takes the shit waaaay too serious so I started pulling for Tottenham just to fuck with him. I've learned Arsenal fans are super sensitive. They kind of remind me of UNC fans. 4/30/2014 8:30:29 PM |

We actual have a whole list of rules and a Commissioner. After I got in on the action, a bunch of other people joined in. We had 10 people this year
Initial buy in to our betting pool: dozen donuts Win: Cajun Filet Biscuit Blowout (3 or more goals): win +2 cinitwist Clean Sheet: win +2 cinitwist clean sheet blowout: cajun filet biscuit meal +2 cinitwist (I paid out quite a few of these this year, in fact we just started calling it the Tottenham)
For derby's we up the betting to lunch (for clean sheets/blowouts desert is added)
If you team wins the EPL, Champions League, etc winner actually has to bring in a cake (seems counterintuitive, but hey Tottenham is never going to be a threat so I just sit back and enjoy free cake).
We have a bunch of other rules. At the end of each season we vote on additional rules and variations to current rules 5/1/2014 9:59:03 AM |

Van Gaal brings a lot of uncertainty. How will his ego clash with the prima donna's on our team like Rio? I really hope Rio isn't around anymore, he has been a bell end this whole year.
I think LVG is a great hire though. I hope he is given two years at least and he has the opportunity to mold a good team. I think Januzaj, Powell, and Lingard will be looking forward to Van Gaal. It also increase our chances of landing Kroos. I am at least excited to see a modern offense at Old Trafford. Even under Sir Alex in the last 2 years the football just hasn't been as good as it was when he had a good midfield in Scholes and Keane. After Ronaldo left the football was dire by United standards (only the results were there). 5/1/2014 1:36:21 PM |

Don't think United is in a position to count on young players to get them through next season. In theory, I agree with you that's how it should be but I think judging from last season's transfers and the rumored upcoming transfers, they'll be buying big to get them through the down period. 5/2/2014 10:24:21 AM |

I agree and United do need some big signings in midfield. Kroos is perfect but someone like him. However the kids could be used in the rotation. I would certainly be willing to give Powell more of a chance than Cleverley at this point. Any good finds from the academy like Januzaj will only help. 5/3/2014 11:55:06 AM |
