Ten minutes into his Tottenham career and Defoe is already pissed at Lamela

You're basically just giving them the ball as the main result is it deflecting off you and going out for a throw. Would much rather have the throw in or the 50/50 chance the clearance falls to a teammate if it stays in. Depends entirely on the situation but what if the defender sees you back off, controls the ball and they retain possession. I'd put the block in most times. Well as a striker I always tried to show the defender inside, if he still tried to clear it out then I'd act like I was going for the block but pull out as soon as he starts to kick it. Definitely a situational thing, but it worked many times for me in my organized playing days.

Hate when players try and block an opponent clearing the ball out of play, just let him clear it ffs. So pointless.

Well, what a cunt Cleverley is

There's just no reason to respond to him anymore

I noticed it too, thought it was more of a grimace tbh. Wouldn't be the first time someone's smiled when out of frustration, at least my old favorite American football team's QB used too so it seems normal to me.

Should give you the option to pick a provider, then you go to their site and sign in. If you're already auto signed in on the provider's website it will just go straight through to live extra.

Still completely emotionally exhausted after that second half. Feels so good

World class Altidore not even in Sunderland's squad today,must've ate ketchup this morning.

Fucking love Ben Arfa so much

Well managed, Pards. Deserves some credit.

Start

Marathon must be against Briggs' religion

Chris Foy does not like 50/50's

I wonder if this is down to his groin injury, or maybe Pardew has seen the light.

Still not enough support for Cisse

He's right about the lack of support though Yeah, definitely, I was referring to his slandering of Berbatov.

Commentator is such a tit

Until that bit's been determined I remain sceptical. Wouldn't be surprising, and would explain Ryder/'Miles dude who's name I forgot' saying no bid has been made. Probably the club telling them to to keep other clubs out. Although, it's fucking impossible to ever actually understand how our club works with transfers.

Great game

In terms of squad size maybe not, but they really do need someone to cut through a backline with a pass. None of their current group of midfielders are very good at it, most are direct and pacy. You could really see it in their first two league games. Not sure about Lamela though, haven't seen him enough.

Rob Stone on TV over here so amazed Ramires will miss a Champions League game. Little cunt has been covering football for half a decade and still doesn't know shit.

Had to happen eventually

I'm going to believe Douglas and the French guy here. Ryder's proved many times he'll get in line with the club for shit/wrong info or exclusive coverage of some PR stunt.
