Ameritoon Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Spurs - Lloris; Walker, Kaboul, Vertonghen, Naughton; Dembele, Bentaleb, Capoue, Paulinho, Lennon; Adebayor. four CM's? okay Nobody at all on the left side of the pitch either. Nice to see Kaboul back, although he's not going to be match-fit. It just seems that Sherwood wants to shore up the middle of our midfield by putting everybody there. Not exactly happy about our XI, but at least there's some shape in there Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest bimpy474 Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 It's beyond a joke now tbh. We've been horrific defensively since taylor has been in the squad but he just carries on, I hate pardew like I genuinely do Is the Taylor inclusion something to do with his "We need more English in our team" statements earlier in the season? Playing English players regardless if they're shit or not. Nope, it's just Pardew's opinion that Saylor is a better player than MYM. Sums the wanker up like.

Chizzletooth Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Strange line up. Curious to see how Cisse does with a strike partner. Amazes me people are surprised by the dropping of Ben Arfa. He's been rubbish by his standards so he didn't have a hope of keeping his place. He gets dropped after average matches by pardew. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I suppose the bonus of having hatem on the bench is that we always have something to look forward to if we're playing crap. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been rubbish by his standards so he didn't have a hope of keeping his place. He gets dropped after average matches by pardew. He was class at Norwich to be fair. Stuck up front against the Mackems while we thumped balls to Shola. Ah why bother, Pardew is a massive cunt, end of. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Si Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I like it tbh, we need to see if Cisse and LDJ can form a partnership. Sammy has been one of our best last couple of games. Benny an option if it's not working. Oddly optimistic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unbelievable Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Also surprised to see Haidara is now out of the squad completely, where it looked like he might threaten for a starting place due to Santon's loss of form. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shays Given Tim Flowers Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 It really doesn't take a leap of faith to see Shola coming on before Ben Arfa. Sammy before Hatem? Fucking hell. It's like he's trying to break him. Souness style ineptitude. Think Cisse will score though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
