have to make that change. No knee jerk. He simply isn't in races. Can't deal with Bale at all.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Nothings changed from last season, and Spurs ALWAYS dick us over.

We are being totally outplayed, but dont forget we've hardly had any pre season training as a team, Silva needs to quickly realise he isnt playing in the world cup, he needs to fucking sharpen up.

Spurs have another level when it comes to energy and intensity, surely they cant keep this up for 90 mins

If Zabba does one of his usual slide tackles and misses they'll get a tap in or hopefully he'll break Bale's leg and we'll be ruining football like normal! Come on Mad Zabba!

What do you expect when you play three defensive midfielders and only one winger with no height up front?


What with Tevez dropping deep, SWP has been our most advanced player on the few occasions we have had decent posession in their half. Baffling.


Mate, we've hardly done anything in their half.


That's my point. We have no focal point, no outlet and when we do get the ball up there, it's Tevez who has come to fetch it and SWP is the only option.

Bale is tearing Micah a new arsehole.

They've also got a game on Tues, so either Crouch or Defoe will be subbed in the second half, maybe Bale too.

We are getting dispossessed anytime we cross the halfway line. Lumping some balls up front to midgets. Kholarov looks pretty good. Hart has made half dozen saves each of which have looked like the save of the match. Spurs are pissing it in our end with bale crouch defoe and Lennon all seeing lots of the ball. Modric looks fantastic.bale is eating Micah for lunch. So fucking wrong. Dawson is a cunt also. I hate spurs. But they look fantastic. Giving us nothing and making us look shambolic.

To our credit we haven't conceded and at times have looked positive on the break. Kholarov i believe is injured. He keeps wincing e evey closeup i see of him.

We are setup not to lose. And so far we aren't. Fingers crossed.

AJ on the left would help balance up the wings and give them more to think about when we do have the ball. Who would he come on for De Jong?

So much fannying about when we have the ball near their box. FFS. It's annoying.

I can't imagine Khaldoon and the sheikh happy with that. Hundreds and hundreds of millions pounds spent and even more in wages and we're set up 'not to lose'.

Looking at things in a positive light though we all know that our attack talent wise is fantastic. What is encouraging is that our defence has been excellent so far and Hart has been sensational. Maybe once it all gels together we'll be a real force to be reckoned with.

Well that's what I call shock treatment. Absolutely horrendous. Can't believe it's still all square. Thanks to Mariner and Hart mainly.

I'd be almost embarrased if we got something from this game.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

I'd have to say that's a knee jerk reaction. Yaya and kholarov have looked reasonably good. Silva will take a while to settle.

Ultimately we are missing adebayor or a big target man. And Craig bellamy. There i said it.

Cheers

I said it last year and I'll say it again, Italian manager, Italian football rather keep a clean sheet and nick a winner than play attacking football. Please Mancini change my view and get AJ on and put Vieira down!

Very lucky to be 0-0, Hart MoM already.

clearly not working, we need to be faster in possession but keep the FUCKING BALL at the same time.

Need some beef upfront.
