Jesus Christ spunky, I know you’re still learning the language, but this sentence is just a big sh!t on the Oxford English Dictionary.

“If Poch had an eye on tomorrow's game about why he left out Verts, it is a mystery when would he not have Verts on the bench and give him 20 mins ran out to get some sharpness back”

Don’t you know a toddler you can hire as some sort of editor?

Well, apart from some convoluted writing, I thought it was a very good post from Morespur.
I've been thinking the same thing about Vertonghen. I believe its a Levy problem again.
Vertonghen is 32 now, and a one year contract extension is probably what Levy was offering. With maybe not too good a pay increase.
If the Alderweireld/Vertonghen partnership is broken up this season, I see no hope of even top 4.
Levy beware!

You think levy made the manager drop a player?

Poch generally wants players who are committed. If they are in the last year, they may not be. But here, I don't think that's the case. It could be something else or just media pushing BS.

Both Verts and Toby will need replacing soon. I know you have Foyth and Sanchez who could take over, though the former is being touted as the RB replacement and the latter has some weaknesses to his game still. I think if you can get a CB closer to or in their prime to replace either Belgian it should be fine.

In my opinion there's nothing in Jan being dropped, IIRC he did the same with Toby last season.

I'm just glad we're not playing Naughton on the left.

Apologies for the elongated wording in parts. I was extremely tired but determined to say something after watching Poch interview. A very honest interview as ever.
Good grief, Naughton? no Thanks !

I don't think Levy made the manager drop Verts but I know Poch will not select anyone if he even suspects they won't be able to give 100% on the pitch.

I fear there's a precedent being made here whereby a footballing decision was made on the back off a business i.e. a contractual wrangling.
