...and we will be eight points clear. I like this season.

"No Blasties"

Fathers for Scousers?

Kenwright?

"Scholesy. Still mis-times the odd challenge." Yawn.

...and a great take by Hernandez. 1-0. Arse.

Want to see that again, but that looked a pretty clear pen for Man U.

Awww, gimme a hug.

We've got the least "game-changing" bench I've ever seen us have, although clearly we don't have to change the game too much! Maybe Kranjcar will finally get a chance to play the VDV role.

You're telling me. Even better if Chelsea go down too.

I'm worried that Liverpool are about to go on a run of wins.

Funny old bench for us today. Would look so much better with Saha.

Yeah, I know, but I'm trying to convince myself it's a good idea.

Have you seen Pav play recently (or indeed, ever)? If we get into the CL next season we will need better options up front in the squad for all competitions. It's all about next year - chances are that Ade and Pav will be off. Not convinced that we will be after Rodallega at all anyway. I've said it before - we're operating at capacity for wages and squad, and need to cut our cloth accordingly. Even if we get into the CL, most of the income will be swallowed up by bonuses.

They're generally the cheap and available ones, naturally! Mangini (who I actually quite like).

Is the standard of English the same in the blog as it is in your sentence above?

But they are, and we (Spurs) don't. If you think Krul is excellent, then you'd expect him to be your keeper for at least five years, maybe even ten. 15M is reasonable, to me it's more surprising that sides haven't paid that much before. You can't tell me Reina for 8.5M (or whatever Liverpool paid) wasn't an absolute steal. This is a world where Liverpool paid more than 15M each for Henderson, Downing, Carroll, Glen Johnson and Suarez (fair enough). You can't convince me that 15M or so is too much of an ask for any keeper.

Adebayor has been a waste of space.

Fucking hell, some ropey old Watford challenges here.

Sorry, meant the footy, not Charlie...

Thank Christ for that. Casual as fuck.

Lennon on. Mint.

much better lb then winger. Still not good enough. Look into yourself, you know it to be true. Rose? he's more then good enough in the lb role. Yeah, I'm still unconvinced. I really hope so, but he is not a natural defender and often doesn't seem to know what to do with or without the ball going forward. To be fair to him, he's done far better than I expected. Cheap, homegrown, squad player though. Do you remember the season we finished 4th (or was it last season?) where he covered for an injured Ekotto for a month or so at LB? he was excellent for us. He's been great in the Europa league games too. I don't like him as a winger but i think he's an ace FB. hell even Arry said that the obly position on the pitch where Rose can become very good is left back and i agree. Oh don't get me wrong, I agree with 'arry, LB is the only position he can develop in. He did help us out in covering at the end of last year. But he got absolutely taken apart in that Europa League match against PAOK, and just look at the number of times he receives the ball in a stationary position going forward tonight. I'm happy to have him as a squad player, but I rate, say, Kyle Naughton, well above him as a player.
