As much as I detest the office metaphor, I do agree that Rose is not a player we can manage without in our current squad.

Scott's ok, and I never post here sober. Sober, it just reads like a lot of illiterate, football know it alls arguing over a sponge. Tipsy, it reads like a gathering of the finest comedic and footballing collossuses known to man, and drunk, I just call everyone a cunt. You've probably noticed.
Which really ain't a fucking disaster is it? My major grip is the manner of today and Manure performances, we didn't deserve to lose against Chavs and deserved to win at the scum. Whilst we should have lost against Citeh we showed balls to draw. We have also totally outplayed Chavs and Citeh at home. Really not a disaster.
NO not getting a real striker in the summer is our undoing, all the points dropped when Kane was missing will cost us, we can't make them lost points up, with another 4 or 5 points that would have given us the believe to look for a draw tonight
same as Last few seasons in the transfer windows when we just need to push the boat out, the Manager or Levy don't do it
and the outcome will be Hugh, Toby Deli will all look to move on if they can't see us winning Torphies
I've never posted here drunk.
Days like this, I wish we had a Spurs Fan TV?.. and watch us being positive with defeat and understanding why it all went wrong.
I know that. I was talking about me. I'm not precious.
I didn't drink Thursday or Friday so I didn't post. Also I was working.
Who am I kidding? I went to bed with clinical depression, and woke up to today. I'm fucked.
You are mate
We just couldn't live with Mane down the right. Davies was exposed time & time again which pulled the defence across to his side and left gaps all across the back line. Son provided zero cover.
Wanyama & Dembele were uncharacteristically poor too.
We get away with it with Rose. Not so much with Davies. Speaks volumes for the huge quality of Rose.
Can't blame Levy, about 60 mil of 'attacking ' talent sitting on the bench every game in Sissoko , Vinnie and George and none of them make a blind bit of difference when needed or would get anywhere near the benches of the other 5 contenders.
I don't think we actually dropped many pts when Kane was injured.
I think we've dropped more with him in the team (not that it's his fault)
Like most seasons unfortunately! Until we can go to Anfield,OT,Chav City and the library and win on a regular basis we are gonna struggle to hold our own in a fight for the title! But as far as this seaon goes we are 2nd still in the F.A Cup,Europa league our defence on a whole is the best in the league when they're available averaged 1 goal against in our 13 away games! Okay a bad night shit happens but if at the start of the season if you were offered this position at the start of February you would take it?
They need a run of games though. We had a few games over Christmas, comfortably 4-0 up in 2, and one 4-1 up.
Still wont use Nkoudou or Vinny.
Then expects Vinny to get us back in the game today with 10 minutes left.
Take out the names, and pretend you'd never seen us play before.
Did Kane deserve 90 minutes? Did anyone?

About time we had some laughs in this thread..
It's depressing as hell but you've cheered it up AGAIN.
I complain about what I believe is a lack of strength in depth, but you are right in what you say.
Today once again highlighted where we went wrong in the summer, and the previous January transfer window. Imagine our team/squad if we spent £30 million on mane instead of sissoko, if we spent £8.50 buying dembele then loaning him back to fulham for half a season (I'm sure we did that with a certain Mr. Dele Alli). If we didn't swap one wide player (njie) for a similar wide player (gkn) that Poch doesn't like or trust. I do have one question for everyone to ponder, instead of taking a punt on a young Dutch player with no pedigree in english football, why didn't we look at the championship? We are nearly there, but by buying average we have stagnated, I agree with others, I'm afraid our better players will leave and we will be back to square one.
Comfortably the worst sentence you've ever committed to Vince. You've set such high standards.
Please up your game again.
