I'm going with light grey slip-ons, with tassels and a faux gold bar. That he picked up for £6 from Stead & Simpson.

West Ham v Tottenham

I find it a little bit strange that West Ham's owners have told manager Sam Allardyce that they want to see more entertaining football this season, because that has put him under pressure already.
Good football or not, Allardyce knows that if he makes a bad start to the season, they will be chasing him out.

After winning promotion in 2012, Allardyce took West Ham to 10th in 2013 and 13th last season
Andy Carroll's latest injury won't help matters but it should not surprise anybody - I think his problem is as fundamental as the top half of his body being too heavy for the bottom half.
What West Ham want
What I think West Ham's owners want is for their team to pose a real attacking threat, especially away from home. They want that progression in their third season in the top flight but, for Sam Allardyce, it will be a very difficult thing to provide.
Allardyce is a manager who sets up his team to be strong defensively and a threat from set-pieces. Now he is going to have to almost reinvent himself as a manager, after changing his West Ham team around over the summer. That is going to cause him a lot of problems.
Tottenham, meanwhile, are starting the season with another new manager but I think Mauricio Pochettino will prove a successful appointment.
Spurs are looking at a top-six finish again and I can see Pochettino playing the same type of pressing football he did at Southampton to get it.
Pochettino is very good at the tactical side of the game and he also improved a lot of players that were under him at Southampton.
If he improves what he has got at Tottenham, then they will have a very good season. My only concern for them at the moment is where the goals are going to come from.
Lawro's prediction: 1-1
Liam's prediction: 1-2

Is he on MOTD tonight?

Might even give us a bit of credit for a great performance.

Yeah. Or he may just go on about Liverpool's performance.

[De Niro]

The table based on his predicted results is quite amusing - he has down in 15th, with 1 win and 6 points.

He is professional northerner, everything from up north is good, opposite from down south.

1-2 to Citeh is it, Mark? You're probably right, but that doesn't stop you from being a stinking sh*te with all sweetcorn in it.

According to Lawro, any sensible person who has a knowledge of football in this country expected both West Ham and Southampton to be bottom 6.

Thank f**k his ***** predictions don't decide our fate!

Utterly dismissive and disrespectful. What a sausage!

I saw that. He meant himself didn't he? I never used to mind him in comparison to Hansen. My mistake that I sincerely apologise for. But in slight mitigation I do feel that he's got worse over the years.

Well there's Sam's team talk for the next few weeks, he should play the recording of this to the squad and see what they think of it.
