Is there no well-haired white Englishman who played for Spurs in the 2000s or early 2010 and wouldn't look out of place in a suit? It's not gonna be Peter Crouch.

That's literally Scott Parker

I could certainly hack a job as a football commentator

One day a chairman is going to look at the job that Sean Dyche is doing with Burnley's players on Burnley's budget and wonder what he could do with quality players and a big budget.

The longer it takes them for the penny to drop, the better.

Wait until the David Brent marketing guy starts hammering out 90s trance from the stadium PA. That's one of my favourites.

My brother immediately threw this into the ring when we were watching it and it rather on point.

They are so completely hapless that they remind me of West Ham for large parts of my time as a supporter. I’m looking forward to seeing their efforts in the transfer market.

One episode in and I’m already convinced this is the greatest television programme ever.

I watched this on repeat. Some of the people's face as they are trying to hold back laughter and nod in an approving manner...absolutely priceless.

Season 2 is considerably better. Although I have a couple of highlights from season 1, it gets The Office type hilarious in season 2.

The best character in this scene is not David Brent but the Gareth Keenan in the white shirt who tries to mimic everything the boss has just said "it's too slow, it doesn't get you up for anything, it's boring"

Picking a Tiesto song from 2004 is just so perfect. Very boomer. I'm glad this scene is on YT.

I am probably too harsh on Emery. He actually seems like a nice man all things considered and following Wenger was probably even more of an impossible job than United post Fergie.

He seems like someone who lives in his own head a lot and isn't a great communicator even in Spanish. He got roasted in France a lot by the media and the PSG players did impressions of his French behind his back as well which is a pretty shitty way of treating someone who clearly put a lot of effort and did really well at improving his English/French.

Very Millennial to think a William Orbit masterpiece based on a piece by Samuel Barber is a 'Tiesto Song'. Tiesto's mix is hardly any different.

Is this the new 'Queen stole the intro from Vanilla Ice'.

How old was Tiesto when Platoon came out?

It is a bit of a shame that this documentary was too late to give a fly on the wall version of the Adam Johnson saga.

I like Dyche and think he deserves a chance at a club with a bigger budget/more resources it'd be interesting to see. Much like I'd like to see Pep at a club where they don't have the best team and squad in the league by a million miles.

Look at Moyes, completely out of his depth.

That's pretty much been Tiesto's MO throughout his career.
Remember '1998' and '1999' by Binary Finary? He nicked that too and his fanboys think he wrote it.
He's probably not made a penny from songwriting, the fraud.

It wouldn't surprise me if he's also done the same with Energy 52's Cafe Del Mar
