I always compared Tottenham to A&M for obvious reasons. But this coaching search sure feels a lot like tu.

it does...it really does and Gattuso is now out....

we are down to what #5 at least on the list. whoever that is.

How far down the list is bringing back Ryan Mason - lol.

Hell what is Harry Redknapp doing these days???? JK... i think.

Also of some news - Son was not included on the SK Olympic team (only three players over 24 can play and they opted not to take Son). This is good news as the Olympics ends just 1 week before the EPL season begins.

Let him rest.

I wonder if there was some horsetrading with the SK team especially since the WC is going to screw up next season?

Wow! I cannot believe they didn't take him, unless he asked for it citing a need for rest. You'd think he'd love to play in the Olympics, and it's a short trip from South Korea.

It's good for Tottenham, though, no doubt. He surely needs the rest.

Apparently the coach had said a while ago it was possible.

I haven't read anything specific but it sounds more like filling positions of need.

Anyone have a favorite soccer book they've read? Could be a biography, tactics book, anything really. Just looking for recommendations and always interested in what others have enjoyed

I feel like it's a classic and it's about the gooners, but I really enjoyed Fever Pitch (the whole book reminded me of going to Aggie football games with my dad). Among the Thugs was good too if you want to dive into hooliganism

Interested to see what others say

Off the top of my head I really enjoyed Gordon Jago's biography. Some great stories about being a kid jn London during the blitz.

The Biography of Tottenham Hotspur. Also, haven't read it yet, but Red Card was recommended to me. Story of FIFA, Sepp Blatter, and the Qatar World Cup

I know I'm an interloper here, but I really enjoyed Brilliant Orange (about Dutch soccer) and Inverting the Pyramid (tactics book). Also, MiB's Rog Bennett has a new book out that's supposed to be pretty good.

I actually just started Inverting the Pyramid today and so far it just seems like a history of soccer book lol

History of soccer then eventually a history of soccer tactics.

The backs have the same blank block for name and number as the USMNT

Edit: Just saw that the replica is the Galaxy design on the back. The "elite" on field version has the block

I actually don't hate the jersey. It's definitely out there and strange but it could be worse. We could have the zebra kits that United wore a couple years ago

Kane was a no show at training today, not sure what he expects Paraciti/Levy to do though if Man City isn't willing to put up the money.

Romero in. Here we go confirmed. Here's my transfer tally so far from this window:

In:
- Pierluigi Gollini (loan w/potential obligation to buy)
- Bryan Gil
- Cristian Romero

Out:
- Juan Foyth
- Danny Rose
- Erik Lamela
- Toby Alderweireld
- Joe Hart

Obviously still waiting on Kane news, Tomiyasu potentially in after olympics, lots of noise about some of Dier/Sanchez/Aurier/Sissoko/Winks out and another CB in.

As it stands I think my starting 11 are:

Lloris
Aurier Romero Rodon Reguilon
Hjbjerg
Ndombele Lo Celso
Dele
Kane Son
Beau Bevers

That's a pretty salty XI.

This is probably pretty close to what the lineup is going to be opening match vs City except Lloris will hopefully be starting, and the midfield might be a little different with Skipp most likely not starting. Hopefully Romero will be good to go, and who knows what the deal with Kane will look like.

Wonder if this means something with City fell through. Interesting he'd put this out 5 days after the fact instead of on Monday or Tuesday if it was allegedly the plan all along.

Spain-Brazil in extra time at the olympics. Bryan Gil is playing well. Involved in the buildup to Spain's equalizer

Ive watched no Olympic soccer but did they just lay some turf down over the track in the Olympic stadium to get some extra width?

I think the pitch was fine, but the area outside touchline and endline was just green carpet. They were in Yokohama, I think

Gorgeous counter attack goal from son. Moura with a great touch to clear pressure then son does what he does.
