Martinelli in summer of 2019 was first Edu's signing. Followed by Saliba. Pepe joined a month after Martinelli (after Arsenal couldnt get Zaha). Point on Willian & Luiz not working is - its been trial & error by Edu. Only in last 12 months, Edu has settled on a coherent plan. As of today...

Arsenal have spent a fortune under Edu - mostly to undo the mess that was created in first place. Edu appointed DoF in July 2019. Edu appointed Arteta in Dec 2019 As per transfermarkt.com Tierney - 27m EUR (Good , but been injured a lot) Saliba - 30m EUR (Good) Martenelli - 7m EUR (Good)...

Best thing I can say about Paratici is , he has just stuck to basics & avoided risks - He fished in the pond he knows. When the summer came on, it seems a theme that Conte wanted players who are PL ready physically. If there were deals we could do on loan, that was preferred like Romero, Kulu -...

Spurs have been working on Eriksen deal quietly - At least as per Spurs forums, Levy is leading the negotiations. Eriksen has residence in London. There is CL with Spurs this season. In all likelihood, he will return to Spurs and also seems Conte wants him. We should hear his decision by end...

I dont think you are being fair on Conte. Conte took the job midseason, with a bunch of players who have been failures since CL finals from 2 seasons prior. He needed 2 reinforcement in Jan to come into first XI - The correct way to assess Conte is post Jan window. In last 14 PL games, Spurs...

Your comment says you are so ignorant on what Conte has achieved in his career. Conte may have managed big/rich teams - but at core he is a coach who improve players. Conte took over Juve when they were 7th without wining title for 7+ years. Out of nowhere (with current Spurs DoF Paratici...

I am not sure what limitation of Conte you speak of ? Spurs when he came in, were 20th in league for running stat & 19th in league for creativity. Now, Spurs running stat (post-Conte) is in top3 of the league and we are scoring at will this 2022 calendar. Spurs have scored most goals in 2022...

Agree that City & Liverpool are on league of their own. Of the rest, with some bias I would say Spurs are best placed to 'try' to make up the gap. Spurs are only side to do a double over City this season & also nearly won against Liverpool (draw) this season. Spurs were terrible under Nuno...

Arteta had 16 days to prepare for this Palace game, with many staying behind to work with in international break. And they lose 0-3. 2 loss in 3 games-Pressure is on Arsenal now

United have no conviction in its game. Arsenal found theirs a while back - Spurs have certainly found it since March. Both Arsenal & Spurs will fight to the finish. What makes this even more interesting is Chelsea could get dragged into this if they drop their levels. If Arsenal win over Palace...

So basically you are saying, Rooney was a better player in his early days and then lost it...if so agreed. Rooney & Ronaldo were at similar levels at one point. One player lost his way with booze & women and other looked after his body and made sure he maximised the talent. As for as Kane, he...

Greater than 20 goals in PL seasons: Rooney - 2 times in 13 full seasons for United Kane - 5 times in 8 season (other 3 times - 17,18 scored. This season 12*) Kane has scored most away goals in PL already (102)- by the time he finishes he might be 150 away goals - no one touching that for some...

How do we compare ? There is no one single metric Rooney will always be the born talent and Kane is more of training ground player Rooney can score free kicks at will, Kane still has that 1 deflected free kick in 2015 Rooney got inducted to a tittle winning team, Kane didnt - so comparing...

Thats not a dive though...

Ofcourse its more important - while every game is 3 pts - when you are in business end of game - win against direct rival is literally 6point game, while win against other inform rivals all the more important for confidence and give that belief. Before City win,Spurs were absolutely going...
