Martin Lol Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 A dozen more points would have you on 50 points. So what you're effectively saying is Hutton is the reason you're not a title contender. Rubbish man. A draw against Newcastle would have been a win if Hutton hadn't gone walkabout, that's 2 points gone down to Hutton's defensive frailties. He's done that 4 or 5 times this season and the points lost do tot up. I'm not saying he is the sole reason we are not higher than we could have been, losing at home to Wigan and away to Wham are just as damaging but defensive errors cost matches and points, and Hutton has been our worst defender by a considerable distance (imo).

In a normal season the title would be contested by the usual 3 contenders. This season any team in the top half could have mounted a half decent challenge if they could string a few results together. Spurs haven't and Hutton has been the prime culprit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Optimistic Nut Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 What about the contribution of 1 league goal and 1 assist from the amazing Luka Modric? Or the fact Keane, Defoe & Crouch haven't scored a single league goal between them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colinmk Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 What about the points hey have won from Hutton going forward too. Going by this kind of logic if we take away any assists and goals that Hutton has made and add 0 because Phill Neville wouldn't of got any then Spurs would probably be exactly where they are!

Or the fact Keane, Defoe & Crouch haven't scored a single league goal between them? Luka Modric has been simply awesome so blaming him is bizzare. Our problems this season = 1) Alan fucking Hutton having the worst positional sense in football history. He plays the game like a 5 a side match and relies on his athleticism to get him out of trouble. 2) Our strikers who can't finish for shit. None of them are reliable. 3) Not being able to get a cb partnership to play a run of games together 4) Injuries Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the fact Keane, Defoe & Crouch haven't scored a single league goal between them? Modric is pure class. To say he isn't is ridiculous. Spurs main issue is the obvious problem of the striker, they need a top quality striker or atleast to play the best of the ones they've currently got, which they don't. The longer they go signing midfielders instead of strikers the better though as far as I'm concerned. I'd hate to see them improve. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Modric isn't the problem at all, in my opinion. Kevin Davies has scored more than all your strikers put together! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
