First half hour yesterday was the best football I’ve seen at the stadium for ages. Same people who didn’t have the mental fortitude for a relegation scrap don’t have it for a transitional season. It’s not there yet but at some point it’ll click and we’ll be fine #COYS

Tacticos might disagree but I think Spurs should sign these players I bought on Fifa who helped me get into the Champions league with Leyton Orient: Christian Bassogog Nicolo Pissili Joaquin Panichelli Louis Munteanu Ola Aina We have until tomorrow evening lets go @tottenhamhotspur.com

I stand by this. Loads of you folded like cheap deckchairs after 15 minutes, digging out players who are not near our best team and negging the rest. It would have been deafening to hear the beeps as you reversed if Mikey Moore had put away even one of the 3 absolute sitters we carved out for him.

My timeline is riddled with defeatist melts and cowards. Sack up lads, it's embarrassing to see you all quitting early.

Wow , just saw a 4 star review of the ADHD Myth ? Documentary in The Guardian - on so many levels it failed as a proper investigative documentary and yet…? It is hard not to despair at just how terrible our journalism is in this country - Relentless damaging mediocrity

Finally watched Miller’s Crossing and enjoyed it but was waiting for the big twist I had heard was coming that Gabriel Byrne has been dead the whole time and everything is a dream and then that twist never came and I realised I’d been confusing it with Jacob’s Ladder my entire life

One day a filmmaker will make something not absolutely dog-shit terrible rip out your own eyes bad with AI but that day is not today and that filmmaker is not Neil Blomkamp

Massive gamble by the manager to put him up against the greatest player that ever lived. But, he’s their captain, so I guess Scaloni has got to pick him.

This thing about Spence being shit - like, he hasn’t been? But people think he has? Once again a black man with some attitude isn’t what people like, is it. Unconscious bias is so real.

Wore a replica England shirt for the Ghana match. Let me tell you, that is NOT a breathable fabric. 100% polyester? In this weather? Forget about it. I don't know how all the Arsenal fans do it every day
