Good to see West Hams attempt at the treble is going well so far.

I think i hate Owen Hargreaves more than Garth Crookes, just a terrible and extremely biased commentator. Also struggles to say more than three words without adding a full stop at the end for some unknown reason.

It's not just that, he says every single word in the same tone like a robot. Incredible to think that BT were willing to scrap, in my opinion, the best show they have in the European Football Show but are happy to keep knob ends like Hargreaves, Owen and Savage.

So apparently we are close to getting Serge Aurier, £23m the fee i've seen the most. Happy with that if it happens.

Looks like it's another 3rd place in the group for Spurs. Ronaldo vs Trippier, how could that possibly end up. Happy with the Napoli group though, should be able to get 2nd in that one.

I'm a bit behind with games but I managed to get WWE 2K17, Doom & Halo Master Chief Collection for about £30 yesterday.

Huge season for Napoli and Roma in particular this season. Juventus possibly not as strong as they were and with the Milan clubs looking like they might be on the rise again over the next few years, this might be the best chance at a title.

Napoli safely through, was not expecting Nice to be so terrible. 2-0 win in both legs but it could've easily been about 8-0 on aggregate with the chances wasted.

Looks like Celtic thought about bottling it for a little while there.

The pitch is too big for constant pressing

That shouldn't mean we struggle to beat anyone though, it's not like we've got a crap squad that can't play.

I really don't understand why we're so crap at Wembley. Oh well only 36 more away games to go.

£42m for a player that will probably be on the bench. Looks like it's time for Danny Rose to head to Google again.

We'll surprise a few this season. Not going to say we'll escape the drop - I'm anticipating we will go down, but we've looked good in patches in pre-season against good teams. Against 4 top flight sides, we've won 1, drawn 2 and lost 1, and would have been 2 wins and 2 draws but for a few things going against us.

Bring it on.

I think you might have a season similar to the one Blackpool had when they were in the PL. Bonkers start winning more points than expected but fall away towards the end and trying to avoid relegation.

Only team I feel safe in saying are going down is Burnley, sold their best defender and striker with no real replacement.

Anyone else excited for the F1 2017 game released at the end of this month? Carroll bmg033 I'm looking at you guys here! They released a second teaser trailer this afternoon which looks absolutely class, confirming 'Monaco at night' now I dont know about you, but I struggle with monaco in the day!

I haven't really seen much about 2017 to be honest, but I do like the classic cars though.

I usually stick it in the wall a few times every time I get to Monaco, but I actually quite enjoyed it on F1 2016 and got through it without losing various pieces of the front wing (possibly for the first time ever). Probably wont buy it for a while though because i've still got F1 2016, Dirt 4, Dirt Rally, WRC 6, The Crew, Forza Horizon 2 and a couple of NFS games that I still haven't finished yet

Our new kits out, now with Nike instead of Under Armour. First time in a while i've actually really liked them, although I'm not a fan of the sponsor on the home kit. Definitely not buying either though, £90 is fucking ridiculous.

You never seem to be optimistic when it comes to Spurs haha, I know you've got Wembley for a year but I don't see any other reason why you can't go from strength to strength?

Well it goes to shit most of the time so it's not like they ever prove me wrong. I don't know why but our players play like they've never met each other before when we're at Wembley and I'll be surprised if thats not the case for the next year. No way we'll finish in the top 4 so I'd much rather miss out on Europe completely so we can focus on the league, as long as we don't lose too many players.

Shocking news as footballer wants to make up for bad loss.

We'll probably lose again though to be honest, going to be a painful fun season ahead.

Race. Was Massa getting the 59 second lap as well, not like it was one of the absolute top cars.

How you finding Dirt4 @bmg033?? Do they have the arena/compound like on Dirt 2? was always fun playing multiplayer around that area

I'm loving it so far, even managed to get to #1 on a few leaderboards . The only criticisms I'd have of it so far is that there could be more events in career mode and more locations to race at. There are only 5 different rally locations in total. Rallycross isn't stupidly hard like it was in Dirt Rally anymore, although that doesn't stop one of the AI cars from randomly breaking the world record lap time by about 2 seconds while finishing last overall. As for the arena/compound, there is a joyride mode with loads of challenges but I don't think you can do it in multiplayer.

Also i've done a bit of F1 2016 online and what the hell is up with ultimate difficulty? I get that its supposed to be the hardest in the game but how am I going to beat an AI car that is getting a lap time of 59 seconds at Brazil

Dirt 4 arrived today, brilliant game so far. It's basically Dirt 3 & Dirt Rally combined with the option to create your own team from scratch. Anyone else getting it?

Or wait till you race in Russia, AI 100% of the time crashes on the right sweeping corner off the line

I did the Russian race this morning and the safety car came out after a 3 car smash on that bend

Only done the first 2 races in career mode so far in F1 but the only slight problem i've found is that the AI cars can ram you as much as they want and don't even get a warning for it. Still, it does seem a decent game considering it only cost me £22.

Well I'm flying out to Rome tomorrow morning, I've never actually been to the city but the main reason I'm going is to see Totti's final ever game in a Roma shirt on Sunday. Bold move going alone haha but: Totti's last game + first time seeing Roma live + never been to the city = has to be done!

How on earth did you manage to get a ticket for that? Not a bad choice for a first game though!

Kane has outscored Aguero, Griezmann & Neymar over the last 3 seasons and only needs 1 goal to be at 100 for Spurs already. He has a real possibility of being our highest ever goalscorer if he stays at the club.

Great piece from Garth Crooks in his 'team of the week', blokes an absolute moron. Actually makes Tottenham out to sound like a mid table team.

The way he talked about Spurs and Arsenal at the end made it sound like he is still living in 2004.

"A player with his talent would be more appreciated at a club like Tottenham. Now at this moment I may have Arsenal fans foaming at the mouth at the very thought of Ozil defecting to White Hart Lane but frankly it is a better fit."

What? That bloke couldn't get much more love from the gooners if he tried, all I ever hear about is how amazing some pass or assist he did was. Also Eriksen is a perfect fit for our style of play and Ozil is obviously better off at Arsenal, so i've got no idea what he is going on about in that last bit.

Fantastic way to leave the stadium, beating Mourinho and United.

17 wins, 2 draws and 0 defeats. Typical that we turn it into a fortress just as we start knocking it down.
