Tottenham Thread

Spurs absolutely wiped the floor, with one of the biggest clubs in Europe.

Don't think Bale will be going there.

Nice win for Spurs, but Inter is a far cry from the club they were a few short years ago. Their defense is atrocious. Lucio left, Juio Cesar gone, Walter Samuel old.

No JD. Just nipping the off topic converstaion (and all replies to it), in the bud before it goes, well.........off topic

[MrRed]

Spurs winning a trophy is off-topic isn't it?

[smokie36]

Not this season....its far more off topic on the library thread anyhow.

[MrRed]

So what do you think you will win then my old?

[rijit]

Stick to the topic of how fantastic Bale is MrRed....there's a good lad.

I see he got his third red this season for diving. Obviously getting in some practice before his move to Spain.

Yeah I think we'd sort of hoped that facet of bales play had stopped, but on reflection i'de prefer that in him to decapitation!!!

I was out shopping for curtains

It was only an innocent question, I didn't realize it was taboo, I'll leave it.

So how about them Spurs hey, flying high?

[BangrakBob]

Lawro has tipped us to win 2-1...brilliant the woolly back has jinxed us already

Anyway 3-2 to us I reckon, should make a more interesting run in for your lot.

You're gonna get Baled out Bob.....4-2 is my prediction.

Did I accuse you of being a a racist? IMO there's little doubt you were being a homophobe . but there again i suppose you think thats fine. so imo if you want to make veiled bigoted comments on our managers sexuality , as smokey puts it 'do one' or maybe best stick to your 'reds necks' thread red neck.

You're getting as bad as MrRed!

Let's hope not....the three of them together aint a bad attack to be fair....but I reckon we have better as long as they don't tire after the Euro game.

with sturridge and suarez up front mate they look as hungry and threatening an attack in the prem as ive seen 4 a while, either or out and IMO they go bac to just above average. Still,atm verity and dawson are as good a c/b pairing as any in the prem so should be a good contest.

good win against inter, fair enough not the side they have been in better times, but the lads beat them well.

liverpool big threat, suarez has that flair we all want in a striker, so i will be happy with a point but we have a good chance of 3.

Good win against Inter. Bale obviously intended to get himself booked to clean the slate for the last eight. Not sure i particularily like that sort of thing but how do you stop it?

Should be a good game on sunday. Were a lot fitter this season, training harder and we don't seem to tire like before so hopefully the thursday game won't effect us.

Tough one to call but i'm going for a narrow Spurs win. Liverpool will obviously open up and go for it. This will leave gaps and i can't see them dealing with our pace. Lennon the danger man on the right, should see Parker staying very tight on Suarez but does anyone know if Sturridge is fit?

If both teams play to their potential, then it could be a cracker and one which will give a good indication how Spurs are going to handle the run in. I'm very unconvinced about Holtby and they look better without him in the team. It's just my opinion.

Spurs are fine as long as Bale or Lennon don't cop an injury. We have no replacement because Levy very stupidly loaned out Andros Townsend who can play left or right.

In short we will lose our shape and pace and our speed on the breaks is the time we are at our most destructive. This season can still go belly up if one of those two gets injured and i can't help thinking that loaning him out was against the managers wishes because it just didn't make sense to leave us so unnecessarily exposed. This is the only realistic chance that Arsenal have of overhauling us and we'd have no one to blame but ourselves, or rather Daniel Levy

[carmine]

I'm reading that Lennon is out of the game on sunday. Probably end up with Siggurdson, Holtby left and right and Bale in the middle of a 4231. hardly ideal but thats what you get when you loan out all your players. Hopefully he'll pick Walker and BAE to add some speed to our flanks.

Edited March 9, 2013 by carmine

[smokie36]

To be fair Walker has returned to form now and offers width.

BAE shouldn't walk over the halfway line too often.
