  1. Will be very interesting to see what happens in the next month or so from a Pochettino point of view. Given what he's had to endure this season with the stadium palava and not being able to strengthen the team (I'm certain he would have if he had the choice), seeing a promising season evaporate might just be enough to make him call it a day. There's only so many times you can put up with near misses, especially when you think they are competitive in all four competitions, 90 minutes away from a Wembley final, firmly in the Champions League slots etc. Got to have something to show for this season you'd think. I'd be nervous for sure with United and Real on the scout for potential new managers in the summer.
  2. No sympathy to be brutally honest. They have pushed their luck relying on Kane for so long that you felt this would happen at some point. Unfortunate that they lose Son at the exact same time, course it is, and in one of the busiest periods of the season when still in four competitions, but they knew he'd be absent at some point. It's a squad game and this is the main reason no one believed in a Spurs title challenge. Not enough squad depth. If Llorente isn't considered good enough to cover this period, you have to question why he's there in the first place and a more adequate player isn't.
  3. Sorry, I meant to say Night King. And i think you're right. Time travel could well play its part in it. Me and my missus went to Belfast towards the end of last year and we got to visit some GOT locations and speak to extras. Obviously we got no hints but the tour guide made a lot of sense with his reasoning for Bran being the night king.
  4. I appreciate that but there's more than one way to symbolise Bran's presense. More I think about it, more i'm convinced he is the three-eyed raven.
  5. Quick question. It looks like we could be signing Kiko Casilla from Real. All I know is he has been back up there for a long time. Are we potentially getting a good keeper here? Hard to know when a player never really plays. And he's 32 so it's not like we would be investing in potential.
  6. I think I disagree a little. Think it's highly relevant that Bran is missing actually. It's beginning to get very hard not to believe he is the Night King. If he is, it will be a cop out for me really.
  7. I went to Lisbon in September 2017, think I even remember asking Machado at the time about the football but it was piss easy to get tickets. Friendly fans too. Had a right result so far for this year. Going on a 4 night cruise to Amsterdam in March for the costly sum of £105 quid. And that's all food chucked in, as much as you want. Also going to Agadir in Morocco literally two days when we come back for a week. Think we paid £210 each for a week in a 4 star with flight's too. Never been to Morocco, not gonna lie, I was dubious but I've been talked round by the missus. Hotel and beach looks decent so initial impressions have been eased somewhat. Got a stag do in Hamburg in June which will be another level given the crowd going. Hoping to get a trip to New York in this year as a treat for the missus but really confused as to when is best to go. Everyone always seem's to say before Christmas which I get but part of me thinks it's just as beautiful in spring or autumn. Still debating this one...
  8. Think you can add Aguero to this as well. Fitter than he's ever been, running more and interestingly, assisting goals more than he ever has at this stage of the season. This time last year, it was believed Aguero would be playing second fiddle to Jesus, who represented the future and someone who linked the play better. Not so now.
  9. If Brentford choose not to promote within and look around the divisions, I actually think one man that could suit them down to the ground is Danny Cowley at Lincoln. What he has done there so far is absolutely class, and they look a quality bet to continue their rise up the leagues this season in all. He's very young but has taken to management like a duck to water and surely its only a matter of time before he's destined for bigger things.
  10. Pretty obvious really. Clearly Gareth want's to stick two of them in goal as Pickford is hobbit size, lockdown the clean sheet, sacrifice an extra midfielder, and hope to hit Spain on the counter. Genius. Can't lose if we don't concede.
  11. I thought it was red. Jota could have been out for the season there. People need to realise rightly or wrongly things have changed in the game. That's no longer considered a 'fair/safe' challenge. Anyway, don't think Everton will be fussed. That's Mina in the team Saturday. Upgrade.
  12. My friend works for Carnival, the cruise operators. She offered me a brilliant deal for a cruise next March to Amsterdam. 4 nights including 2 days in Amsterdam for £100. Normal price is £312. Happy days. And obviously that is all the food chucked in on the ship free as well. Never done a Cruise before so well up for the experience and as my missus hasn't been to Amsterdam, it'll work out well. And obviously the beauty of that is the ship leaves on our doorstep in Southampton. Lovely little weekender that.

    Going to our third BBQ of the weekend today. It's actually got me thinking, what do I prefer most at BBQ's? Burger, Hot Dog, Chicken, Pulled Pork, Fish, Kebabs etc I would normally say Burgers but if the Chicken is marinated in the right sauce, it's a winner for me. Especially mixed with Potato Salad, Coleslaw and bits like that. Plus it's less bready. That is a rookie error with BBQ's, don't go for too much bread.
  14. Good on Tranmere. Two second successive runners up spots in the National League. They deserved to go up. It will be interesting to see if they can make a good fist of things like Lincoln have this year.
  15. Steve McNulty looks like he's lost a lot of weight for Tranmere. He used to be like this. What a professional.
  16. Yeah Johnny is the man, Danile Larusso comes across such a prick at the start but get's a bit more likable. It's Miguel for me who I find interesting. He is essentially the Daniel Larusso at the start and then more like Johnny was originally by the end. And yet, I still find him likable. I don't know whether they are going to make him one of the bad guys or not next year but I'm pretty sure they'll have him competing against Larusso's daughter haha. Yeah that's a long wait. I actually wonder whether someone like a Netflix or someone else will try and get the rights for the next series. There doesn't seem much else going for YouTube Red besides Cobra Kai.
  17. I know, so many possibilities where they can take it now. I literally didn't want it to end. Had you watched the original Karate Kid before? I just love the way they have took the story so far, flipping it on it's head so that you literally don't know how you feel about certain particular characters given their current allegiances. I reckon they might get a couple more old characters back for another series. Elisabeth Shue would be interesting for the story.
  18. I loved The Karate Kid. One of my favourite childhood films. I was so hyped for Cobra Kai and begging it didn't do a disservice...and it bloody well didn't! Brilliant series. It's great how they have done it. Interesting plot story which no doubt will develop further into another season, interesting characters especially Miguel's journey and the change in Johnny, and plenty of references to the past film which go down a treat. Like the 80's music they add in as well, kinda like Stranger Things, just to relate to older viewers. The only problem was literally how short it was. 30min episodes, you burn through them like there's no tomorrow. Very impressed though.

    Definitely fella. Then on the ground for a champers picnic before smashing her backdoors in the evening. Preferably without injuring her neck. Sorry, that probably wasn't very appropriate

    You can get some good one's on those Virgin Experience day's. Either a taster one or something it a bit longer. We did one a while back, pretty decent and not too expensive.
  21. Literally cringing at the thought of liking anything related to these but Victor Lindelof, you are punching. What a quality bird he has.
  22. That's all well and good until you lose to Huddersfield and West Brom, two teams destined for the Championship.
  23. I will settle for that comment. Literally scrolled back through the comments praying I hadn't made a twat of myself. In the clear.
  24. That screams 'coming straight to DVD and The SyFy movie channel on Sky' real soon.
