and that's about the only one in years. never got close to any in the Europa final - not sure he even went the right way more than twice
Last year against Watford he saved two more if I remember correctly.

Larger point being that you don’t need to put someone down because another player is doing well.

West Ham had so many chances. Forest knock me out of Last Man Standing. Good on them.

larger point? I've said DDG isn't good enough for years.. long before henderson ever joined the club. DDG has had one good season n the past 3-4 which is not good enough for a club like United

Get in Forest. Never did and never will like West Ham.

The DDG/Hendo argument is like the Dalot/AWB argument. Whichever one you prefer they still are not good enough for the job long term. Funny thing for Hendo is that had he not forced his way out this summer he would probably be getting a start next week and have the chance to prove his point but that door has probably closed forever now. I think new keeper has rocketed close to the top of our priorities list in the last week.

Tuchel probably think he needs James pace to match Son so that he will not run behind Dave all day.
Worked well against Sterling on a number of times and Diaz as well against Liverpool. I've been impressed on the few occasions I've seen RLC at RWB. Defensive prowess in that position is yet to be assessed but I think he adds a bit more attacking strength from there.

I thought Steve Cooper had sort of long flowing hair and was about 10-15 years younger than this guy! Clearly the guy I was thinking of isn't Steve Copper!
Steve Cooper is one of the youngest managers around, only 42!

I reckon you are thinking of Gareth Ainsworth (who happens to be way older at 49)...

Ah gotcha! There was a Steve Cooper at Tranmere who had long flowing hair but he was considerably older than this Cooper

Clearly we have a problem of too many Steve Cooper’s in the football system

Just looked that one up and he died in his sleep at 39. :(

Chelsea havnt looked great but they are a bogey team for Spurs. At home should be a win for them. Guess Spurs would settle for a draw at the bridge.

Flat way Spurs play with their formation is seeing them getting pegged back. It’s another year of relying on Son and Kane for counters
