Disco Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Saying that teams that have effectively parked the bus at WHL have got something this season as Spurs have run out of ideas. Need to negate all space between our defence and midfield as thats where there most dangerous players operate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

dinotheprehistoricgeordie Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Weird things have happened at WHL - Butt's scored twice, Geremi (!) has scored, Huntington(?!?!), Acuña scored one of his few goals there too... So, Smith will score a hat trick and Perch will bag a brace and we'll win 5-0 then. Then Krul will finish things off with a scorpion kick for a comfortable 6-0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frazzle Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Barton of Carroll might work but we need him to influence the game more so playing him as an attacking mid could harm us more. I hope it's Barton off Carroll. Could work. Why? Barton hardly ever gets that far forward these days. If Pardews plays him off Carroll he is already forward. Why Barton there though? He doesn't have the mobility of Routledge if we are playing 4-4-1-1 and is much more important in midfield. He's a good player but can't play every role.

He's never done it for us so it could be worth a try. Routledge in there would make sense, though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

EthiGeordie Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 He should have started with Ranger instead of Smith.... No excuse to play Smith but then again he is a senior pro... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frazzle Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 Routledge Smith Tiote Gutierrez Barton Carroll Would rather swap Barton and Routledge if we are playing that formation. Barton is more disciplined/better defensively and Spurs are strong out wide. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
