It's the best thing that could have happened this summer, given the circumstances. Last summer TH was pretty clear about his intentions despite the rumours; this summer he has been anything but. I loved the Arsene 'steel fist in a velvet glove' analogy, this is so true. Arsene just does not piss ...

who's nearest the exit...

That answer was a bit obvious. A more telling point is that Gilberto is The Invisible Wall between evil Thierry and our talented young players, represented here by Theo and Cesc. Gilberto is the rightful heir of the captaincy and would prevent Henry coldly staring out our young guns every game 8)

Re: ...

To begin:

This past season, I flew over from my exile at university in the US to make my pilgrimage to the Grove...

Personally I think all the players we have have great potential, it's just getting them all to click. With TH14 back I'm sure that will inspire a lot ...

I suppose all these white kit haters never wear a white shirt to work, or a white t-shirt on holiday, or white overalls on the job....

It's not white, it's white and redcurrant. The side panels are redcurrant, the shorts are redcurrant, the socks are redcurrant/white hoops. We've had kits with dark blue shorts before, which is the same as Spurs - oh the horror! Should we eliminate the white sleeves and white socks on the home kit ...
