Kneeling is an anti USA police thing this is England and time for it to stop. Apart from that I was not moaning it was a pleasant game but he opposition were not up to much.
Nope. Way too slow and not agile enough for prem. level we need.
nope is time for the world to wake up and listen
He hasn't looked good enough for the US National Team, and that ain't the PL.
But alas, he's a HGP and Foyth isn't.
What the fuck has it got to do with Football.
I hear ya, but these are the things that will hopefully get coached out of him. We get on Serge for his tackling and he has been a RB for years.
Could have something to do with all the black players out there who have experienced similar shit in England that led to the BLM in the USA. Just a thought for your 68 year old mind to ponder. You seem pretty worked up over this and just had to make sure everyone knew you opinion on matters didnt ya?
Just read this :
Pierre-Emile Hojbjerg
Some nice early touches from the new signing as he kept things simple and looked to win the ball. Played his part in the second goal after winning it on the edge of the area and playing in Dele Alli. Good start to life in a Tottenham shirt.

The thing that UK folks may not understand is that a pro sporting event in the US is just a cavalcade of jingoistic and militaristic imagery.
You may know that the national anthem is played before every game, what you may not know is that for the last several years literally every major pro sports game now features a moment during a stoppage of play where a military member of some sort is trotted out onto the field and all attendees are expected to give them a standing ovation.
So the BLM stuff at sporting events in the US is meant to be meeting Orwellian state propaganda with overt symbolism in response. It's fighting fire with fire.
I guess in European football I interpret it more as solidarity against some of the shameful chants and such that happen in the crowds, so it's a different sort of issue. Not that the UK doesn't have its own sorts of racial inequities.
Wake up to what exactly?
Right I'm going to speak some home truths here as I've had enough of this kneeling as well.
It's fucking cringe at this point, the point was made weeks ago.
Amazes me that people feel the need to continue to kneel for a career criminal whose death was most likely caused more by the huge dose of Fentanyl in his body than the knee on his kneck. And was saying he couldn't breath long before he was put on the floor.
It was manslaughter at best but zero evidence whatsoever that it was racially motivated
Imagine the riots that would be going on now if Cannon Hinnant was black and had been shot by a white man, every city in the Western world would now be burning and that is all you would see on every single news channel.
But because he was a white kid shot by a black man, nothing, nada, zero fucks given by the virtue signalling crowd.
But instead lets keep kneeling for George Floyd to show our humanity.
Fucked up world we live in. And before any bleeding hearts respond I couldn't give a fuck so save your breath.
You don't dictate when the kneeling stops. Don't like it, close your fucking eyes.

If CCV was going to come good I think he would have by now. I know CBs generally are slower bloomers, but he just seems like the kind of guy that would anchor a really good Championship backline for a decade.
Your life, your face and your posts are shockingly shit.
Please don't talk about things that you clearly have no understanding of.
Firstly, I saw 10 minutes at the end of the first half, so I'm not talking about the game.
Secondly, I'm not being negative about anything.
But really, if you went back over all the social media posts regarding pre-season friendlies as long as I can remember, you'd probably find that 95+% of conclusions drawn were some way wide of the mark, positive or negative.
Every year we try out some kids, every year a few people get excited about a couple of them, every year they end up on loan at Southend.
That's been the case in recent years when we've played Barcelona, Bayern, Juve and so on. Today we played a third division reserve team
