He was poor. The whole team was average at best.

Not even that, I’m afraid.
There’s a total lack of confidence, no team leader (Lloris, the keeper, is captain
), a quiet manager on the touch line, not cajoling, encouraging or barking out orders, a chairman more interested in money than trophies, and owners (ENIC) in cahoots with Levy to make money.They have good players, a great stadium and a large fan-base but the heart is in the bank, not on the pitch.

I am fairly confident that Harry K uses the same PR company as Harry HRH

Just watching MOTD. It's disgraceful to hear Spurs fans booing their manager!!.

Fair point. I'm going off how MOTD interpreted it.

Visited friends in Amsterdam tonight. This is where they live:
They live on an estate where Ajax's old ground used to be. All the streets are named after foreign grounds.

I reckon Kane is a confidence player (more so than most that is, they all are in part) Maybe one of those that needs to be told/read regularly how good a player he is so that he believes it. On a bad day, he's absent rather than poor.
ManU's win says little IMHO, there's still questions over who they are, how they play etc (if you get me) They have such talent available that simple law of averages dictates they'll get it right on occasions, even if they resort to selecting players, formation and tactics from a cookie jar. I reckon they ought do a bit of selective pruning and look for strength in team rather than names.

Fraid not, Accy. Although there are several Stanleystraats in Holland.
wah? it's not April fools day so I guess you must be serious. Turning to the recently retired Bruce? Or perhaps the vocally available Conte?
Moyes is doing something very right isn't he? He's really shaped that team into fine working order. I feel that he's worked largely with the players he's got too, rather than try to assemble a team to play in a predetermined way.
I'm neither a fan nor do I have an axe to grind, just voicing a genuine respect where I think it's due.
