Um...

They miss so many players right now.

I'm not going to fault them.

But yeah, it does mean they need a big run and they need Inter to drop off.

A big run when De Bruyne and Zambunguisa and all those guys come back.

Yeah.

And Antoine Griezmann free kick gives Atletico Madrid a 1-0 win away at Deportivo La Coruña in the Copa del Rey.

Sam, so much for the old guy being phased out.

I just feel like they need him, especially Alvarez doesn't do anything away from home.

And if it's not the only living sore lot in captivity, it's got to be him, right?

Well, especially, yeah, with Real Madrid out of the competition.

You imagine this is going to be Barcelona's third priority at this stage.

I think you're in a really good place.

So, for me, the single biggest thing this tells me is that

Spurs are likely not to sack the man with two first names for the foreseeable future because Conor Gallagher seems to be the epitome of a Thomas Frank player uh he's a guy who brings so much energy he runs around uh Jules not a Conor Gallagher fan uh at all on the ball not as a person you just listed his strengths and you said energy runs around he's gonna have more than that yeah but

He has more than that, but, I mean, you really have Bergvall who does that.

You have Bentancourt who supposedly does that.

Paulinho doesn't run as much, but he's got more of a physical presence.

To me, it seems like what this team needed was more quality and creativity.

And because Xavi Simons isn't offering it.
