Although the jury is out on the new owner (purely as he's an unknown quantity) this guy is a class act. He has worked wanders at Midtjylland and Brentford, speaks well, is a passionate "proper" football man, and seems very tuned in to us fans. Interesting times ahead.

I'm with you on this. Potter is doing superbly with an average squad. He's got a big future.

Redmond hasn't got that turn and ball in him. That's quality that we just don't have in our 10's. Broja, yep, but Armstrong or Adams wouldn't have put that chance away.

That was a cracking goal from Ings. Superb turn and ball from Buendia. Quality that we lack unfortunately.

That is so sad, gutted for him. He's a really nice lad and has worked so hard to get back to fitness. I hope the next chapter of his life is a good one.

Similar for me although I'd swap Leicester for Chelsea. I find Chelsea boring to watch, whereas Leicester games nearly always have a lot of action and they play with a bit of attitude and pace.

Indeed Weston, little doubt about it.

Yep. This clip highlights that. https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/competitions/premier-league/12505656/ref-watch-should-spurs-goals-have-stood Happy New year back to you.

Don't doubt it mate. They'd have put a competitive team out if they had to.

Not sure mate, and I don't know how many u21 players they have who would form part of the 23. Also unclear if there's isolation on top of the covid cases. If correct, that's one hell of an injury list though.

According to their forum, these are the players out: Injured: Wilson (Calf) ASM (Calf) Lewis (Hamstring) Hayden (Knee) Fernandez (Calf) Dummett (Body) Fraser (Picked up a Knock Vs Man United) Shelvey (Picked up a Knock Vs Man United) COVID: Clark Ritchie Darlow Willock Suspended: Manquillo

Would you be saying that if we'd invoked this rule to our advantage?

This one jumped out at me. Rarely has the word "class" been so out of place. LiquidAK Posted 1 hour ago No league game until mid January now. Over to the recruitment team, get some business done early and we’ve got a great set of winnable games ahead. Class

He wasn't defending it. He was saying he's pretty sure we'd do the same if we needed to. I reckon we would too. Not saying its right, because it's not, but you can understand why they've done it.

What if some of those players have been sold, or are injured / have covid?

Cheers and cheers. I think the issue is less about the rules, but when the goalkeeper is challenged - is it from the initial movement from Doherty or the result of the subsequent momentum from both players? In that clip that mosin posted up, the opinion of both ex players was that it was a fair attempt by Doherty and no foul. Its academic now of course as we got the call, but this place will be interesting if/when a similar call rules out a goal for us.

Cheers mate, seen that. Thank you 👍

In this case Doherty was clearly going for the ball. Forster then moves towards him. Are you saying its a foul when a keepers own movement, combined with the momentum of both players, causes them to come into contact?

@Lighthouse culling some of the crap on here is no bad thing, but the link to the clip where there was a decent discussion re the drop/foul was deleted. Any chance of having that back please?

Cheers, interesting discussion on there and it shows differences of opinion on it. Some call foul, others weak goal keeping. Either way, we got the call, so all good.

The ball was in the air and the keeper and player were both going towards the ball. The keeper dropped it and the players touched. The player had his back to play to avoid a smack in the face. People see it differently, but no need to be a cock about it.
