I think he'll do okay for Spurs, he's a Mourinho-type player. When Mou has a tantrum and gets sacked next season, I think Hoj will find himself out of favour and warming the bench.
-
He does look very promising and wouldn't be surprised if he's expected to step up next season - may mean we can spend our Hojbjerg funds elsewhere.
-
Makes sense, thanks for clarifying.
-
Wow that's huge, I'm surprised it's with immediate effect - this means they will have to start renegotiating contracts and possibly release any players that won't agree to take a wage cut.
-
I presume it will only be home fans allowed in stadiums if it's season ticket holders only? I suppose clubs could offer ST holders the chance to buy tickets for away games but not sure if there's much point if you can only have a fraction of a stand.
-
Yep gotta be this, the club won't want to be seen breaking the quarantine rules no matter how lightly. Question is, when is the two weeks up for Salisu? Must be next week some time?
-
£8m would be good money for an academy player, out on loan for the last three years, who doesn't fit Ralph's 4-2-2-2 system. Reed's a good DM - more Matic than Scholes. Hope he does well for Fulham next season but I can see them going straight back down.
-
David Ornstein is very well respected and clued up about the London clubs. What he says about Arsenal is basically gospel.
-
Wouldn't get in our team and doubt we will be spending £40m on a back up. Villa will buy him and he'll do a Wesley.
-
Lightning fast today. Thanks for all your hard work Steve.
-
Dan Sheldon reporting £20m + add ons for Hoj, £12m for KWP.
-
Reed has been the best player on the pitch tonight (though should have been sent off first half!). I think this will be decided by a scrappy injury time winner.

Thing is, if you don't actually watch our games and only have stats to go on or maybe the occasional MotD highlights, he is a very good player and a very good fit for Spurs. One of the highest tackling and interception rates in the league... he frequently gives it away afterwards, but that doesn't show on the stats. One of the highest pass completion rates from midfield... mostly because he only ever passes it to our CBs or goalkeeper, but that doesn't show on the stats. He can play CM, DM, LB or RB... he's terrible at both fullback positions, but that doesn't show on the stats. The things that we see, watching him every week, is that he too ofter slows down or breaks up attacks, his positioning is poor, he too often takes the easy, safe pass when there's a better, forward ball to be played... Spurs fans won't see that on Opta or Whoscored. Plus, he's 24, rarely injured and comes across well in interviews. On paper he's brilliant and well worth £25m. If they get him, they will quickly be disappointed and turn on him before Mourinho publicly chastises him and boots him to the reserve team.

Away kit looks pretty good I think, interesting that it's sash-less. Kudos to whoever spent the last year convincing LD Sports to change the colour of the logo to fit in with the shirt. Last year it was blue on all of them and didn't fit with any of the kits.
-
Sounds good, get KWP over the line for £10m and then tell them to cough up £25m for Hoj or get lost.
-
Gerrard's the new flavour of the month, getting linked with all vacant jobs. Bristol City linked for a couple of weeks before journos moved on.
-
Have you considered increasing the membership fee? Seems to be the way of the world at the moment. £5/year isn't much, maybe up to £1/month would be acceptable to most without causing everyone to leave.
-
Well now I'm annoyed, I started a new job half way through January and they've seeming invented this new-fangled thing called "pro rata" and I only got paid for the days I was employed! Bloody typical, I will complain to HR.
-
I was going to say "surely he's not earning that much" and then found two different sites that say he's on £65k/week! 😱
-
Joe Hart being linked with Celtic, if that happens then we're definitely stuck with Forster.
-
Not necessarily, we play with two right-footed CBs now. Assuming the ideal situation of Vest getting sold, that leaves us with two right-footed senior CBs, makes sense to me to get two lefties in (more likely we want one lefty and not picky about the other).
-
Pretty sure they just used the goal of each month to make the list, so Adams' was beaten by KDB's today against Norwich. Still a better goal than KDB's though.
-
Lots of 502 Bad Gateways yesterday and today too, I guess the new site can't handle the higher traffic peaks as much as the old one.
-
Holes in loads of socks today, poor quality? Or are we still using the old socks from "last" season's kit?
-
Great way to end the season, 100% home win rate in the new kit! Hope Ralph and the boys get a good few weeks' rest after completing the #QuestForEleventh.
