Mav, I don’t think anyone will eat Barca for breakfast Spurs didn’t eat them for breakfast at Wembley and the 2-4 loss flattered Spurs and they would almost certainly be Kane less in the Final should Barca make it.
Liverpool and City would certainly give Barca a much sterner test than United did though.

17th April 2019 at 4:57 pm #37795Liverpool still have to get through tonight. Just need to keep it right abd not concede early. Hopefully no injuries
De Gea is the best keeper in the world
The pl has some very good keepers now
Kepa has done well for Chelsea
Alison has an absolutely excellent first season and Ederson aswell
Still highly rate Ben foster. Excellent keeper
Pickford has been poor

17th April 2019 at 5:01 pm #37796Whether United fans did or didn’t want Poch is neither here nor there he almost certainly talked himself out of any United interest with his 10 years to win anything comment and that’s before getting into the likely compensation of circa £40m and the difficulties in negotiating with Levy.
Pochettino probably has the best job in football anyway a contract worth £40m plus over 5 years and no pressure to win anything.

17th April 2019 at 5:01 pm #37797I still don’t ?. Just because Ole might be wrong (which I always suggested, as much as I hoped otherwise) doesn’t mean all the other contenders were right. I’m even having doubts over Allegri, who was my first choice, after last night!
But yeah, the top two are unlikely going to be caught while ever they continue to hang on to their best players and buy better ones while the rest of us stand to potentially lose our best players. We might have money but replacing De Gea, Pogba and Hererra wouldn’t be easy, regardless of Pogba’s indifferent displays. Especially if we only get EL football as I suspect.
I’ve said it before but if we do lose DDG, the amount of money we have is irrelevant because we won’t be able to find anyone as good as him who we could attract (if that GK exists even). Say we could get someone like Oblak from Atletico (unlikely as it is). He’d probably cost us 100mil in the current market. We’ll struggle to get half that for DDG because of his contract situation meaning we’re out of pocket AND down on quality. Same with Pogba. As indifferent as his form can be, his influence is huge at times. In order to replace someone of his influence we’d again be looking at probably paying more than we could get for Pogba.
Let’s all just have a moment to feel sorry for Utd fans and our current predicament. I know you all share our concerns ?

17th April 2019 at 5:03 pm #37798Sean, the problem with Foster is that he’s no Lionel Messi with the ball at his feet.?

17th April 2019 at 5:06 pm #37799Absolutely Nine. Like Wenger, Poch is now in an enviable position every PL manager would love to be in and, like Wenger, he is one of the best paid managers in the league and under no pressure whatsoever. He is unlikely to ever move on from Spurs and it wouldn’t surprise me if he does a full Wenger and eventually outstays his welcome.

17th April 2019 at 5:58 pm #37803You’ve really got the hots for Poncho, haven’t you? Blimey… 🙂
No players, no transfers, no home stadium for the best part of two seasons… Kushty Street all the way!
And you think he’s got it easy as our Chairman isn’t sulking about not winning trophies against multi-billion pound squads at home or Big-ear Cups in Europe… geesh… 🙂

17th April 2019 at 6:30 pm #37808Do you trust Ole to make the right transfer decisions though Mav? If Chelsea get their transfer ban suspended I’m not sure I trust Sarri to have an input.?

17th April 2019 at 7:19 pm #37809That’s a very attacking line-up by Poncho, really thought he would go with 3 CB’s…
I’m going to make a bold prediction and suggest this game isn’t going to finish 0-0… any takers?

17th April 2019 at 7:38 pm #378119-Not at all,but the problem lies with Ole being a yes man,hence so many rubbish players being given new contracts!

17th April 2019 at 7:59 pm #37816You brought Poch up Chucky, not me! Yeah after 5 years at the club and being able to keep his best players while spending 300mil on players, I would expect some kind of pressure. I may be old fashioned but I’m a firm believer in a club needing to strive for some kind of success before a manager gets the credit Poch seems to get. Settling for being also rans and living off CL money is what Wenger made his living out of while at Arsenal.
No players? Rubbish, you’ve got one of the best squads in the league. One Poch can be thankful he inherited. How many managers in the world have got a guaranteed 25+ league goals a season striker?
No transfers? 300mil on players ain’t to be scoffed at. They say he’s had to sell to buy but has he actually lost any decent players? I’d say he’s only had to sell off surplus players.
No home stadium? Ah poor old Spurs having to play in the biggest and best stadium in the country ?

17th April 2019 at 8:04 pm #37819Was very tempted to switch to the other BT Sports Channel, but something tells me I better stick with my own lol 😀
Laughs aside, think we’ll be good enough to bag the tie if we get an away goal.
COME ON REDS!!
