@brendonb86 8 fighting for 1 place!

@markTHFC82 Vuskovic will be class but it’s all about the right profile to fit the style of play. He’s a proper old-school type dominant centre half who is also a massive goal threat - but he’s not a progressive style defender that’s suited to a possession approach.

@DarrenReay007 If I was a Newcastle fan I’d probably feel exactly the same. What I would say though is that he was a massive signing for you at the start of what looked like an amazing project and Toon era - I doubt we’d have been able to get him if the project hadn’t faltered so much

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@MrDtAFC He was a better right back than centre mid today!

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@AdamJoseph Clearly 🤣

@PeteNich79 @jordancronin_ You’ve almost got enough to buy 2 more Elangas now!

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@PeteNich79 @jordancronin_ Might pre-order it now then! 92.5mil with 7.5mil addons.

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@DeputyGrocott Already on it!

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@THFCtedddy Is ‘realistic’ one of those words like ‘sick’ that has inverted its meaning but I didn’t know until now?

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@DeputyGrocott I found the exact same thing at the local Santa’s Grotto - unbelievably work-shy attitude from all involved.

@theEnd1882 Still £50k a week too much for what he’s done so far!

@JuniorRodigan Last defender presupposes the keeper’s behind them. If he isn’t, it’s the second to last defender

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@ScoutTottenham Backup keeper needed to be someone as good as possible but happy to bench warm and not suck up budget or wages - I think he’s a great addition with these metrics. Who would you have rather we had? He’s also more consistent than Vicario who was our first choice!

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@WellOnside MGW or Wharton for me. We need a little more English core for identity and these 2 both fit the technical profile for RDZ as well as being highly proficient both in and out of possession

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@danny_rose_p The key difference for me is that RDZ wants to win now with a positive style rather than completely points driven and soulless football. I’ve not felt this optimistic since peak Poch

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@BotFinderUK I think a GE would be chaos right now. The current party have massively underwhelmed but there’s no credible alternative right now as none of them have presented a better alternative - just sound bites on single issues.

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@PeteNich79 @jordancronin_ More importantly, do you think I should get Tonali on my spurs shirt next year?

[Ben Trenowden @trenoodle]

@bphillipsonMP Not sure what your supposed start calculation is for the 9.5% teacher pay increase - what is the compound inflation figure for this same period?
