Let's just say pre-Maradona.
My brilliant 1 G school career. 😂

Certainly Wharton would be a no-brainer, but most likely he will be gobbled up by a bigger fish. There are a lot of unidentified dots in the top right & perhaps one of those would be more attainable & at a more reasonable price.

In honor of spooky month, share a 4 word horror story that only someone in your profession would understand.

Phylloxera is spreading globally.

Tel, without a doubt. There is a reason why Bayern bought him as a 17 YO. Perhaps not a tricky as Odobert, but he does have dribbling ability, plus a cannon shot.

After bringing peace to the 109 warring Spurs pods? It’s an absolute travesty!

As profiled, I’m one of the more recent Yanks to fervently adopt Spurs. Not only is your new pod a welcome way to endure the international break, it adds historical depth to my fandom. Great work Gareth! I will look forward to every new episode.

It’s being reported that a ruling on the Manchester City 115 PSR charges will be announced before Halloween. How will they rule? 🤔

As much as I would love to get Semenyo, or Wharton for that matter, I believe it’s only a pipe dream. Bournemouth is definitely not going to sell him in January. If a LB/LCB hybrid can be found, that would be the priority. I would like to sign Hackney too, but squad space is an issue.

I feel bad, but he made the choice to take the Forest job. Looks like 17th is the comfort zone.

Read “The Wind Knows My Name” by Isabel Allende. 🎯

Well, if someone has to make sure that the Arses don’t win, it might as well be Spurs.

He may be right. They could get just 6 more points this season.

Swell @swellwines.bsky.social · 9d

Absolutely & ultimately probably not worth over analyzing.

I agree. Leeds’ “shots” seemed to be judged liberally & while perhaps timewise they had more of the ball, it wasn’t in dangerous areas.

I would like to know the statistics, because it seemed to me that Kudus lost/gave away the ball a lot today, but despite this, like few players can, he was also able to perform moments of brilliance! #COYS
