Tripps has spoken out against our post season friendly against Newcastle. Says it’s not ideal especially in a tournament year. Glad someone has spoken out about it. It was a stupid decision the moment it was announced, not only for what he says but considering not long after the FA Cup change statement came out, it just made it all a mockery.
Here's an obscure one: Holstein Kiel have just been promoted to the Bundesliga for the first time in their history. One of their midfielders is Lewis Holtby.
As much as I loathed him, his "specialist in failure" press conference about Wenger was one of the best roasts in football history.
Lamela’s left Sevilla as a free agent. 32 now, wonder if he’ll head back home to Argentina somewhere, back to River maybe?
Jose to Fener on a two year deal. They’re gonna be in for one wild ride. Finished three points behind Gala last season having lost just one game. I’d say they’re the sort of club that Jose will help get over the line next season though, could be the perfect appointment for them.
Speaking of Galatasary, all of Sanchez, Aurier, Carlos Vinicius and Ndombele just picked up winners medals for the Turkish Super Lig. At this rate every player Harry Kane ever played with will have a medal before him
Watching Defoe in this charity match and I’m convinced that he’d be our first choice striker if he fancied coming out of retirement. Absolutely still got it.
And maybe now he'd be a yard slower and wouldn't get caught offside so often!! Seriously though, I love the guy and he probably could still do a job.
