*** Spurs v City - Official Match Thread ***

[ruralblue]

How much pride and joy are we feeling right now?

The passing is amazing, the tempo, the not giving up and chasing everything down. We appear to be unstoppable! !!

[Im_Spartacus]

Bt sport fuckin joke, have spurs been cheated lmfao, fucking bitter bastards

Incredible to hear this, in the Middle East we have Clive Allen commentating, Glenn Hoddle as summariser, Gray and Keyes in the studio, and their view to a man is that regardless of the red card and penalty, we would have destroyed them tonight regardless. They are very forthright in their praise for us.

Interesting the perspectives in the Middle East, as whilst there is a rivalry between the smaller middle eastern nations, you wonder whether qatar's editorial position is pro-city as a team for the Middle East, or whether the pundits are being genuine.....it certainly sounds genuine from the excitement in their voices this season.

So I am quite drained after all that! I thought the ref was crap but two massive decisions went for us so we can't complain too much I guess.Quite a few top performances tonight and one of the best for me was skipper Vincent Kompany.

We went into that game v Adebayor who has been on fire and Vinnie just put him in his pocket. Silva excellent,Fernandinho superb.Demechelis good at the back and did a great job when he stepped forward. Clichy I thought was very good,Aguero at times unbelievably good.Strangely for the man I though Zaba had one of his weaker games but he was still ok.

Apart obviously from Kun getting injured the only disappointment from that game is that there were 2 contentious decisions for the press etc to talk about.We deserved to win by at least 3 goals as we were that much better than they were but it will be all about the decisions which went our way. Never mind all the ones that didn't as Spurs tried to get into the game by violent methods.

Lol Ginola loves us

[dick dastardley]

Fucking hell bt sport knobs still going on about offside goal, adebayor was in offside position!!!

[Cit.revenge]

Theey don't talk about hand from Džeko shot they say it was not penno on Dzeko crazy

[zuricity]

I've liked his work in both positions tonight.

Doesn't require much running does it when you are 3 goals up ! Sorry , but he is still the weak link in the defense.

Fucking hell bt sport knobs still going on about offside goal, adebayor was in offside position!!!

Unbelievable wasnt he!!.. ffs.. BE TOLD BOY!

[Original Dub]

Fucking hell bt sport knobs still going on about offside goal, adebayor was in offside position!!!

It's ridiculous.

If adebayor wasn't going for the ball, would hart have came out to block an expected header from him?

No.

Therefore he is interfering with play.

So SHUT THE FUCK UP ABOUT IT.

ps delighted.

[Dameerto]

Fuuuuck we're in for a player - did you see Pellegrini's reaction when he was asked if we were after anyone? He went all coy and said we would have to see.

Adebayor was in an offside position and goes for the ball. SURELY that is interfering with play? If launching yourself at the ball isn't then I have no idea what is.

Hope to god is not that Mangala, Mangela, Menghele fella from Porto. We were heavy linked today with him. 40 mil. A lot.

[shawzy]

Upmost respect for Sherwood..Well said lad.

[Florida Blue]

Fair play to Tim Sherwood on the offside non-goal. He basically said "Ade touched it, right? He was in an offside position"

[nottsblue]

Kompany classy as usual. To be fair to Sherwood he isn't moaning at all. Basically said we are the best side in the country

[london blue 2]

Sherwood and ginola have been refreshingly honest. Nice to see fair play. Coverage been ok as well.
