Bredbury Blue Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 If idiot Alli hadn't lost it I'd have fancied you to go through. Even with 10 men you dominated possession. Some of your players, Dier for example, needed to keep their cool and you just might have done it. Defending for Gent's 2nd goalie was like watching City. Composure/focus was needed.

Our squad isn't deep enough to challenge in 3 competitions, now we are left with the FA Cup and PL we might be better off with having a fighting chance of finishing in the top 4. With Liverpool only playing for the PL, Chelsea PL & FA Cup and Arsenal PL & FA Cup (CL looks unlikely) it's gonna be a tough ask anyway. City and Utd are involved with more competitions but they both have more squad depth. OK thanks but is that it then? A top 4 Finnish and your happy? So what kind of investment is needed for you to be bothered about Europe once 4th+ is attained? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I count 12, possibly 13 players that are good enough to compete in all competitions but we need another 4 or 5 in order to do that seriously. It's the cost of those 4 or 5 players that would be at the same level of our current first 11 that would be needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted February 26, 2017 Share Posted February 26, 2017 You wasted north of 30 mill on Sissoko. You won't get that back when he clears off back to France or Italy. Any update on where you are playing home games next season? A half-built new ground or Wembley? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were playing our home games at Wembley. Sissoko has been an unmitigated disaster and few if any understand why we bought him let alone for 30m. He's been dreadful.

I'd like to see THFC win a cup ASAP as some good work has been done and to keep Poch, he needs it as much as the players to ensure that young dynamic team sticks together. Any ideas of who you would want? Don't see a lot of that on any footy forum on TV. Elusive question. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carmine Posted February 27, 2017 Share Posted February 27, 2017 Complete performance last night. Clearly we eased off in the second half and thankfully both center backs coming off just precautionary. Kane obviously MoM but all round fine team performance. Rose apparently out until april which is a big blow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dabhand Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Excellent article about Jimmy Greaves in the DT http://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2017/02/28/cristiano-ronaldo-can-match-magical-mark-set-jimmy-greaves/ The contrast between Real Madrid’s spectacular Bernabéu stadium and the modest but quiet and comfortable corner of Chelmsford in which Jimmy Greaves lives could hardly be greater. Yet only a Cristiano Ronaldo hat-trick on Wednesday night against Las Palmas now stands between them sharing a moment in football history that underlines just how truly exceptional – and perhaps also underappreciated – Greaves has been to our national sport.

Great player shame about the injury in group stages but a winner he is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
