Spurs started poorly and appeared to get worse as the half went on...it seemed like we had the ball in the attacking end for the last 15 minutes.

OBAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 1-0!

Excellent move by Martins to get around Kaboul but the angle was difficult.

Pretty clear deflection...don't know how he missed it. Zog and Geremi appear to have switched back, btw.

What a shock...we stop playing longball and Owen ends up with a good opportunity to score.

I was thinking the same...this front two can work but you have to use them properly.

Argh Faye that was so close!

Barton warming up...but it looks like Emre will be able to stay on.

Setanta says Geremi wide on the right, so it's a 4-4-2.

I missed it, who's on the bench for us?

He's done absolutely nothing of value today...well, of value to us anyway.

fuck, 3-1...

Smith has actually been passing pretty well here...

Nice tackle from Beye on the counter.

Are the commentators seriously not sure who to take off for Emre?

For Butt, I assume?

"You can sense Alan Smith trying to take hold of this game by the scruff of the neck..." Or take it out from behind with a late challenge.

WTF

Bring him on for Oba

I think it'd have to be Butt off for Enrique...certainly not Smith for me, he's actually done quite well today.

Anyone left who wishes we dropped Viduka for Shola? I know that was the talk here a few weeks back.

Martins and Viduka have both played very well, imo. Best comment of the half had to be when they were talking about Owen's injury, they were saying how some were optimistic in looking at the England games and the commentator goes, "Forget about England, let's talk about Newcastle...they pay his wages after all."

That's the real puzzling one...move Enrique in at LB and Zog up and you improve in both positions.

Who misplayed Ireland through there?

Honestly how much better do we look with Zog at LM...and it's only been like 4 minutes!
