uptheos Posted February 10, 2014 Share Posted February 10, 2014 Good win, although Everton probably deserved a point. Spurs were very poor again in the first half. Why? Why do we not seem up for it in the first 45 and need a blocking at half time? Liked Sherwoods thoughtful team set up. The guy has lots to learn but seems to be learning fast. Paulinho and Eriksen poor, Adebayor and Dembele very good. Lennon utter pants again. More confirmation Lloris is a very good keeper. Should be looking for three points at the Barcdes on wednesday and hang in there hoping for Liverpool to bottle it or their form drop. FOOTNOTE FOR UPS....Lamela still injured, thigh and back injury. Can't believe a player that cost 30m gets injured. Yes, it's hard to imagine, so much injury from so little play. Maybe sitting learning English is doing his back in. I agree that Sherwood is learning fast and has quickly found out Soldado's best position. Lloris has probably been the best buy, he's excellent and so fast. I won't mention that he's quoted as saying he wants CL football.......but hey, Spurs are still in striking distance so he might get it. It was a good win.

carmine Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Looks like we have lost Chiriches for six weeks and Lamela quite possibly the season. Fortunately for tonights game Newcastle are suffering with injuries....and you never know, we might even play well as a team. Rather important to win this to keep the pressure on Liverpool, whose game will likely be postponed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carmine, this is not a pop at Lamela, I've just read about him in The Guardian and after reading the passage below, I'm curious how all this serious injury stuff came about if he really wanted a move just a month ago....thoughts? Lamela was desperate for a loan move last month to reignite his career, particularly with the World Cup finals in mind, and there were several clubs in Serie A that wanted him. But Tottenham felt that they could not go from paying such a massive fee for a player to loaning him out only five months later. http://www.theguardian.com/football/2014/feb/11/erik-lamela-tottenham-hotspur-injury-setback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iancnx Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Newcastle are definitely depleted, which should give us an edge for a conclusive win. Who will be play maker, that is the question. I think we go with Dembele on that score. Happy to listen to other suggestions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotsira Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 I think the same team that started against Everton will probably start tonight. Hoping that Ericksen will have a good game and get on the ball in the opposition half, as he can make things happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hoping that Ericksen will have a good game and get on the ball in the opposition half, as he can make things happen. Both Ericksen and Paulinho so poor last time out. Praying it was just lack of match fitness. Townsend needs to show tonight even if just late off the bench. Kane likewise. COYS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotsira Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 Paulinho could well be down on match fitness due to his lack of playing time, but Eriksen has featured in every game lately so should be firing on all cylinders. Kane wasn't in the squad last match as Defoe and Soldado were on the bench, and until Defoe leaves at the end of the month, can't see Kane being included. Agree, Townsend should play tonight, but probably coming off the bench, unless he replaces Lennon who also had a bad game on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mad mary Posted February 12, 2014 Share Posted February 12, 2014 (edited) Where's Alfie? Has he finally bored himself to death or has he been recruited by Timmy Sherwood as a press officer/1st team tactician?

carmine Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 Played well tonight although there was a spell of around fifteen minutes in the second half where we seemed to offer them a chance back into the game. Other than that we looked good and even if we did offer them chances Lloris is in spectacular form. Strange that we can win 4-0 away and yet our best player just might have been Hugo Lloris. Kaboul showed what we've been missing for a season and a half. Theres our best center back pairing, but whilst he and Vertonghen are quick i thought at times we played a ridiculously high line. Need another away win at Norwich next as Chelsea and Arsenal are on the horizon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjj Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 What has happened to Eriksen? As soon as I put him in my fantasy team he becomes rubbish! I have just put Adebayor in so if he stops scoring, you know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmine Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 What has happened to Eriksen? As soon as I put him in my fantasy team he becomes rubbish! I have just put Adebayor in so if he stops scoring, you know why. You need Adebayor in your team whenever the transfer window approaches. the new window tends to bring out his best form I think Eriksen was left out because Sherwood wanted to beef up the midfield, pairing Bentaleb with Capoue and secondly, with his current form Dembele is very difficult to drop. And he did have a very good game last night. However he walked off with a possible groin strain so Eriksen will probably be back for Norwich away. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uptheos Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Hugo Lloris absolute LEGEND Excellent shot stopper and his speed off the line cuts out lots of potentially dangerous through balls. The lad from St Albans in track suit, seems to be doing well. Probably captaining a PL Championship & runner up team with Alan Shearer at the helm, he understands the roll of a centre forward. "He (Tim) has been there for me since day one," Adebayor says. "He just told me: “Adebayor, I know how good you can be, I know you can be a very important player for this squad. If you fight for the team, the team will be behind you.” "At the moment, this is what is happening and I am very happy." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotsira Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Adebayor, Lennon, Kyle Walker, Dembele, Kaboul and Hugo Lloris are all being rested for tonights match. Sandro (calf), Lamela and Chiriches (both back) and Jermain Defoe (hamstring) are also absent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sotsira Posted February 20, 2014 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Whatabout Soldaduddo? And what are the opposition like? The opposition Dnipro are an Ukrainian side that are managed by our ex manager Juande Ramos who has won this competition twice back to back with Sevilla. Yevhen Konoplyanka, who Liverpool tried to sign in January plays for them too. They have a good home record, so it won't be a walk in the park for Spurs, although Sherwood still thinks his best players won't be needed. Hence, why Soldado will probably start tonight.
