    Match Tottenham Vs Palace - Boxing day - 3pm (Live on BT Sport)

    So Palace is full strength, more or less. Only 7 subs and a self isolating manager, but that's not exactly worth postponing over.

    Match Tottenham Vs Palace - Boxing day - 3pm (Live on BT Sport)

    This will be of the 2 hours before kickoff variety. Premier League isn't going to do anything on Christmas Day.

    Match Tottenham Vs Palace - Boxing day - 3pm (Live on BT Sport)

    Premier League could do themselves a favor and release clear guidelines for match postponement to the public, but of course that would force them to concede a modicum of authority to do whatever they want, so it will never happen.

    Match Tottenham Vs Palace - Boxing day - 3pm (Live on BT Sport)

    If we aren't in Europe there will be plenty of free weeks, even if we go to the final in both domestic cups. Only match that would be a challenge is Leicester City since they are in the UECL knockout playoff.

    Match Tottenham Vs Palace - Boxing day - 3pm (Live on BT Sport)

    If we get postponed and Soton play that should be a pretty big advantage for us Tuesday.

    Club Come here to laugh at West Spam

    People comparing Conte to Mourinho is so weird to me. Back 3 does not mean defensive and boring. Patient build-up and recycling the ball isn't inherently boring. I don't know where he gets the reputation as a defense-first manager. His Inter teams were very aggressive. But it's a West Ham fan...

    They'll break out their "best team in claret and blue" flag in no time the shameless fucks.

    Match Tottenham Vs Palace - Boxing day - 3pm (Live on BT Sport)

    Really hard to predict the lineup given how Conte is managing the squad given the COVID outbreak, injuries and the busy schedule over the next 4 weeks. Considering what he's been able to do with players I thought were on the way out for one reason or another (Dier, Davies, Winks, Dele, Bergwijn...

    Manager Antonio Conte

    Maybe it's the lack of structure under Ole, but he doesn't seem to have any responsibility on the press or in defense. Combine that with Ronaldo who won't do any of the dirty work and you have a sieve of a front 3/4. He was abhorrent on City's first goal today. Cancelo had ages because Fernandes...

    Manager Antonio Conte

    Dias is good because Pep makes him good. He's not VVD, who is ridiculous. He's a very good CB with flaws that are covered by the system and other players. Dias is the type of player that would struggle at Spurs under Mourinho because the system was garbage and people would be calling him a fraud.

    Manager Antonio Conte

    Fernandes is a far better passer and chance creator than Dele, but he is lazy as hell. Just watch how he played today against City, he's useless in defense. He's a classic 10, which works for some teams, but it would never fly under Conte.

    Manager Antonio Conte

    Fernandes in a Conte team? Do people even think before they say this shit?

    Manager Antonio Conte

    I don't think you can underestimate just how much fitness they lost under Mourinho. Players complained under Poch, but the team was fit for a reason. Players complain under Conte, but his teams are fit for a reason and he has the silverware to back it up.

    Ole has done an incredible job of lowering that club's ambitions.

    Match OTHER MATCHES FRED - 2021/22

    Chelsea have been weird as hell. Mendy is playing out of his mind. If he comes back down just a bit they could be in trouble. I think it's Liverpool and City as 1a/1b with Chelsea the third best team. Then there is 50 feet of crap and everybody else.

    Ole needs a lifetime contract. Just needs time.
