Abuse From Fans, Spurs Better Without Kane Again and Why Always Meeks? | EP 37

[@lloydfitchie931]

Micah splitting his trousers…… ‘Big pleats’ springs to mind 😂

[@stanthemafia]

This is one of the best podcasts out there- hands down

[@r4h4al]

This & Gary Neville's one.

[@cookieshooky]

This podcast makes me laugh every single time! Micah's life is literally a list of funny encounters.

[@matthewirwin6134]

Does he have an autobiography yet?

Genius trio!

[@craigmartins997]

By far my favorite podcast, unbelievable chemistry

[@torinwastaken]

I love this Trio, this podcast, everything about it is great!

[@i.blomen]

I was listening to this podcast yesteday on Spotify while going out for a walk. I went around smiling and laughing like some crazy person in public.

[@jonteau7722]

Loving the podcast! As a Spurs fan I would have loved to see Harry in this side but I don't see how we would have had this start with him. Part of our success has come from the fact that our side is much quicker back to front and despite H's immense quality, him and Son together in an attack alongside the mercurial Kulu is a very slow attack. Plus he would get in Maddison's way when he drops deep like he does for England which is why it's so hard for any of our 10s to really shine centrally.

[@batemanlife]

Love see Alan laughing so much

[@jasonrichards3875]

this pod gonna blow up need longer episdoes for special occasions!! Great insight and entertaining throughout

[@vinaykrishnanmenon]

I am so fortunate to listen to you all twice a week. Amazing stuff gents. Question for Alan - would you have bought Micah to your club when you were a manager? 😊

[@patrickkelly7085]

He was to busy making up excuses as to why Newcastle were about to get relegated.

[@NangNangEE]

The Best Podcast! I pressed subscribe after watching this episode. Thanks for the show. ❤😂🎉

[@paocastillo7529]

Big Meeks has change english punditry . The light hearted fun athmosphere is a breath of fresh air. All our beloved former player pundits can be more relaxed and themselves on air

[@james.3352]

Hey guys love the pod, Alan's even growing on me more I tend to put his Rovers days to back of the mind. Top striker 🤝 and your analysis on Burnley yesterday was spot on , we should be looking more at our poor display rather than focusing on var errors that aren't there. Handball at the end never , if that was ever given against us in a phase such as yesterday I'd be fuming. Look forward to Mondays pod 👏

[@C33Fernandez]

Tip for Micah: Spurs are a better team without Harry Kane, but not because of Harry Kane's absence. They've replaced other positions with better players and current players have improved - both can be independent from Harry Kane's presence.

[@tokilladaemon]

I think kane needed to leave in order to get this revolution in the midfield. If he comes back next year itll be fantastic, but if he'd stayed the team wouldn't have made this much progress imo, even with all the same new players

[@C33Fernandez]

@@tokilladaemon Yeah, I tend towards a similar opinion, but we can't really know. Ange could have orchestrated a similar change with Kane present, if he has that intention and progress in mind. But Son in the new role is working wonders with the midfield behind him - He tends to drop off in form every now and then, but if he develops consistency, it could be a killer formation.

[@whitenbald]

After big football moments I always look forward to you guys talking about it. Looking forward to an episode about Bellingham in El Clasico, Harry Kane's hat-trick and half-way line goal, and Nketiah's hat-trick! Good weekend for English players

[@nigelgates1086]

Remember in Harry Kane last game for Spurs, under Postecoglou, he scored 4 goals in a 5-1 win. In the new year however they lose Bissouma, Sarr and Son to the African Nations Cup and the Asian Cup. In Spurs first 6 games Romero only gave away one foul and has still only been booked once.

[@anzinn]

FYI. Son, Udogi, Sarr, Bissouma will not play for Spurs from mid. Jan-mid February. Son-Asian cup, the others - African nations cup.

[@paulominster5077]

To be honest Spurs are better team without Kane. No disrespect to Kane, but Spurs were built around Kane. It was set up so the team played for an individual rather than individuals working as a team. That's why Kane's doing better in Bayern, he's an individual working as a team. Because he joined the team that was built without him he just filled in the slot.

[@averagesimracerUK]

This is the hottest podcast there is right now!

[@plutarisgaming9303]

The goals he would score would be crazy. But would the front 3 of Kul, Son and Richy/Brendan fire as they would ?

[@olumidesheriffadams7917]

Best show by far, very funny and realistic at the same time, wanna get my questions in how do I go about it

[@blackwhite2361]

I don't agree with Alan. Newcastle deserved more.

[@unklecyril]

Spurs is a different team without Harry Kane.

[@jeremywentworth1833]

Absolutely fabulous as per usual, the fashion icon and ambassador of Man city no doubt advised on those horrendous American.style football cardigans lol.. When City got there 1st ever premier League under Mancini Big Meeks will have been over in Leeds lording it in Chapeltown lol. Come on gents bring the podcast on tour of the UK. Big Meeks been a Leeds lad and me a Leeds Supporter how about starting at Elland Road , regarding Tottenham No1 thought Leicester would do it, saying that it was Peps 1st season otherwise theyd have steam rollered the league as usual.

[@jameshoward-white2288]

Why did I always assume that when you work in a studio for an American company (like CBS) that you must be in America? 🤦‍♂️

[@Keverton13]

Really loving the podcast but must say I'm a little disappointed their was no tribute or even mention of Bill Kenwright passing away.

[@GurinderJohal]

Wait that’s not the video CBS put out, Micah does the celebration and rips his trousers and Kate was the one who asked if Micah’s trousers were okay.

[@welshforlife]

the msot enjoyable people to watch on youtube as a whole, love the chemistry with these 3

[@cbc899]

Spurs are a better team under a new manager with big Ange, don't think its about Kane not being there. They could just simply be even better with him there

[@jamnewt7338]

Romero only has 1 yellow this season. Evolved as a player next to Vanders already.

[@DavidBrown-jd2st]

Are we ever gonna discuss City’s 116 financial charges, Since the PL have said about hammering Everton ??. Or does financial power give them a bye ball / new billboard.

[@annisachoirillatifa4215]

Micah is too funny🤣🤣🤣

[@coma144]

If Kane is willing to replace Richarlison on the left wing maybe Spurs will be better but otherwise no. Kane can't lead the high press which is absolutely crucial in Ange ba

[@AlexiRoussos]

Jesus is one of the best ball carrying strikers in the world. And he’s insane in tight spaces

[@stephenm4528]

the answer to the question are spurs better without kane is that they are better with ange.

[@TonyHavenMusic]

[@chrisallen19821982]

I love Harry Kane but his dropping deep to pick up the ball would not work in the way Ange sets up his team imo as Spurs fan I have to say we ARE a better team without Kane but we will still miss the number of goals he would have got, we might see him back in a spurs shirt in a few seasons time once he wins the one team league.

[@thetruth1862]

Gary at The Theater is the name of my neoclassical leftists but also conservative punk/Country band 😅

[@motionmixer]

Spurs are winning with or without Kane. Without the sale you maybe don't get the players you need. Of course Harry Kane would have carried on scoring goals in an Ange system. Sometimes it just doesn't make any difference. Son is 12-1 to finish top scorer. I reckon it's a good outside bet. Haaland is the favorite by miles. As it sits just now, it's one goal. You'd imagine if Kane was still at Spurs they'd be even more prolific. Sadly we'll never know.

[@ranbirahluwalia9595]

To say Maguire is underrated is criminal. Please stop, they beat Copenhagen in the last minute. Nothing more, nothing less. It means nothing, because come Sunday Man City will wash the floor with him and Onana.

[@olumidesheriffadams7917]

I was at the match @CPFC vs @SpursOfficial match and they were amazing but they are one injury from going down cos if one of Son or Madison gets injured and it's lights out for Spurs

[@christoskarameros3714]

The rain reminded them of Dortmund, Germany. The owners ought to put a sliidng roof on St. James Park or a transparent roof that would enhance the quality of football and minimise the injuries resulting from inclement weather and muddy/wet surfaces.

[@roglin87]

Hearing of the Man City sweaters and baggy jeans. Have you three ever had to wear clothing that you detested? Sponsor or club demands? I'll bet Big Meeks has had this dilemma frequently.

[@jonodunn2592]

Botman and shar best cb partnership

[@prajwalbhujel]

Micah is such a lazy pundit man. Maybe his criticism for Romero being rash was true last season but with Micky next to him, I’m pretty sure he hadn’t even committed a foul 5 games in the league and honestly can’t remember the last time he’s been booked.

[@Itskevooo17]

Haaland in those early city teams with Pep would have scored 60+ easy. Sterling and sane would have feasted going to the goalie and just cutting it back for those tap in that's Jesus used to miss 24/7

[@Dah230]

I think spurs play more cohesively without Harry kane. Not better but more cohesive

[@benitotommassi5820]

The cardigans looked great, I thought. Different and stylish. Even as a united fan, I say well done city.

[@Hhammer]

It’s good Maguire is playing well But let’s see him against a good team. Also he HASNT handled himself well. English pundits seem to forget the terrible interviews he does. He’s all about himself. “I must be doing something well two managers select me” “I have nothing to prove” “My winning statistics are great” If it was a foreign player saying that you’d crucify him for not being a team player

[@agentbuizel9875]

He has 2 decent games against mediocre opposition and apparently he's turned a corner. 'Always plays well for England' even though the goal we went out to in the Euros was him losing the header to Giroud. Fans can see through the bullshit. If he was a likeable guy, he wouldn't be getting criticised as badly, atleast it wouldn't be as personally targeted as it has been. These pundits just protect him because he's English. So scared of hurting a man's feelings, it's pathetic

Because it’s rubbish, that’s why! They’re not better because Kane isn’t there, they’re better because they have a new manager with better, more attacking tactics!

[@iu2]

"Are Spurs better without Harry Kane?" Yes. Alan and Gary are completely blind to Son's abilities, and they too often hold Kane in high regard when Kane hasn't won anything. Perhaps because Kane is English and Son is not. At least Micah acknowledges Son. Just look at the stats. Removing this season, Spurs winning record with Kane and with/without Son is about 54%. But, Son without Kane is 64%. Son is the better team player. And, he's the better finisher. His career xG difference is way higher than Kane. In fact, no one is better than Son in the past six years in the PL.

I said we need shot of him to become a team, and we have a happy team playing with a smile, and do you know in ten games we have not received one penalty kick.

[@ull4h]

10:21 come on Gary. Don’t just say nonsense statements like that. Maguire looks like the most frightened player on the ball, never passes it forward. You can’t rewrite the past with one or two games- overalls Maguire has been abysmal at Utd. I’m sorry about the abuse he gets but you can’t escape criticism with the performances he’s given. I’ll have to see him perform well until at least Boxing Day to say he’s actually turned things around.
