V Spurs at the moment:

 

                Harper

 

Beye  Cacapa  Faye  Enrique

 

Milner  Geremi  Emre    Zoggy

 

            Owen  Martins 

 

Subs; Harper, Taylor/Roze, Barton, Butt, Viduka.

 

Do we have two Harpers now?

wasn't emre almost exclusively a LM before souness and roeder got their hands on him?

 

He was a central midfielder for Inter and Galatasaray.

 

thanks, can't say i knew much about him besides his press clippings before he arrived, but i do recall owen going on quite a bit about how we'd landed ourselves a "proper" left side\left-footed player....

 

Strange considering Owen signed on deadline day, while Emre came in June/July.

Think it was Souness who said that about Luque

drop smith play emre.

Drop Milner until his acne has cleared up, play Emre. Smith suspended, play Viduka.

Geremi, Butt, Emre and Zog in midfield.

barton has come through another fitness building match, completed 90 minutes in a behind closed doors match against rangers.  rangers won the game 3-1 with several first team fringe players in their squad vs. our reserve team along with joey.  barton set up our only goal with a pass to doninger

"He's one player on my list. He can play wide left, through the middle or off the front. He's a good player who can play in a number of positions."

 

most other quotes from souness were him going on about emre being left-footed and what a big deal that was, not so much left-sided, my mistake....
