Different story 2nd half, fair play to the players waking up. Xavi and Dom were superb, best we've seen of Gallagher. Another point towards safety. Still want ENIC out. #COYS

Romero subbed at halftime? Can only be an injury (no shock) or he's lamped Frank in the dressing room.

This is all on ENIC. Long past time for them all to go. #THFC

European trophy and finishing 17th in the league again? We'll take it.

Good half, pressed high, tried to get forward quickly, all the small things we've been crying out for all season. Whatever that fella Nick said to Frank over lunch must have stuck with him.

Thomas clearly never seen Goodfellas then.

Is this the super-tanker he's turning?

Nuno's Revenge looks to be complete. Dear oh dear.

I think if Agent Vinai really believes in that spiel he put out about ambitions and intention he should come out at halftime with Coyte, read it out in full and see how the matchgoing crowd feel about it. If things are going south he can trot out that red wine drinking with Levy anecdote again.

Finn Wolfhard directed a video of George Harrison's Give Me Love (Give Me Peace On Earth) and it's lovely. You should watch it.

This looks like a lot of fun, takes me back to my younger years playing football board games like Emlyn Hughes Team Tactix. Hope it gets enough support.
Best Eleven is now live on Kickstarter! I worked really hard on this and I can't wait for everyone to play!

Great Spurs performance for the first 70 minutes and didn't have enough off the bench to see it over the line. That's on Levy, Lange, Vinai, Don Fabio etc. Get the chequebook out lads. #COYS
