I live in the North East and went to the game today. I was in with the Tottenham fans, we never stopped singing and got the lads over the line at the end. The person army is a tribute to Tottenham Hotspur football club.

Walker is starting to cost is decision making is shocking & not close to the player he was last yr. anyone think it mite b worth a punt with Kaboul there and caulker and vert in the middle?

How long can we persist wit Ade? I said it last yr that he was crap which yes he scored a few but needs triple the chances of other strikers! Can the guy actually control the
Ball all it does is bounce of him.

Good game from Lennon today but needs 2 start turning in these sorts of performances week in week out. Needs 2 shoot more also. Sum competition for him wud b good.

We need 2 or 3 to push on & get 3rd if not i can c the & chavs pipping us. All season I have looked at the bench & there is never a player on there that can come & nick u a goal.

Have we any players that suit you? Walker is young, he will come good. We are on a roll at the mo, support the team ffs.

Agree3 Disagree1

I completely agree about walker, he certainly isn't the player of lasy year, But I don't playing Kaboul there is the answer either, I feel when all are fit then a very good and realiable back 4 would be RB - Naughton who IMO opinion is getting better and better and LB is not his position.
LB -BAE is our best and only natural LB.
CB - Vert, enough said really
CB - Kaboul if he plays as well as we now know he can him and Vert will be a CB pairing.

This then leaves Caulker as a first choice CB sub along with Walker, Dawson and Gallas.

I think our starting 4 in the middle picks itself with Lennon, Dembele, Sandro and Bale, again IMO 4 of the best around current in the PL, what we really need is a decent striker or two and cover for the wings, we have decent enough cover in defence and the centre of the park for this season so thats hope Levy addresses the situation and delivers a couple of late chrissy present for all us long waiting Yids.

Original poster I agree with almost everything. I thin you are giving Kyle a hard time. I don't think Kaboul is the answer, last season he was awful at RB, his passing is terrible. As far as Ade goes, totally agree he looks uninterested I feel like he owes us a storming performance. He doesn't seem to realise that if he leaves spurs then he's got nowhere to groundless he performs well. I think AVB needs to stand up to the fans opinion and select one up front with Dempsey or sig behind to give an extra man in midfield. Coys

I didn't say I wasn't behing the players just saying how I c it. THFC good shout wit naughton mayb walker sitting out a few is the kick up his ass he needs.

How goods sunderlands keeper Simon mignolet he made class saves

Believable6 Unbelievable1

Is he worth a punt the only problem we've now got Hugo lloris and brad friedel if we sign him 3 keepers saying that I think friedels about to retire he's a good keeper there only signed him for 1 million INCREDIBLE!!!

Agree2 Disagree0

Why are you talking about another Keeper, we NEED another STRIKER Lazybyor now has his contract and has become more and more laid back it is a joke that miss in the first half is not of a striker on 80 grand a week even Crouch would have scored that! if we are serious about top 4 and champs league then we need more quality and apart from Defoe, Berba, Klinsman we seem to end up with duds Rebrov, Rocket Ronny, Armstrong, Iversen, Keane (second spell) and more When are the Club just going to spend that little bit more on a striker and i don't expect 30million type i mean 15-20million there must be a striker more lethal than Adi that would push us into top floor every season. Why can't we get rid of the has beens and put there wages towards that big signing - anyway rant over still a good xmas for the Spurs and lets pray Levy will push us on COYS

We showed a bit of togetherness today. Controlled the 1st half but went behind.. Second half we pulled it back, ok own goal then when ahead and held it...BUT I'm trying hard not to find fault but adi....... He doesn't look half the player of last season and doesn't look convincing or a striker with confidence..... He can't finish which we r making the chances to win convincingly..... Avb is looking like he has got control of the team and the prem... How good was Lloris today...... What a keeper.....

Banter please Ed :
Can someone tell me if Vert has been injured ? Just seen the team and hes on the bench and Dawson is playing ! AVB was moaning in the paper about consistency , now he has dropped one of our top players when we have a chance of cementing Vert and Caulker in the back four ! Is it me ??
Davo

why the*& %$can't he let sigurdsson start?
spurs are better with him than adebayor!

Agree4 Disagree3

All these chances missed. 10 mins to go, I hope we don't live to regret these misses.
Adebayor is just not the same player when he gets a contract.

COYMFS.
{Ed008's Note - Back to Davo's post Vertonghen needed resting i think he'd played a lot of games recently whilst others had the benefit of rotation.

Agree4 Disagree1

Thanks Ed but surely it is better to do this against a struggling team rather than a team who has won 3 in the last 4 !
Davo {Ed008's Note - Yeah Reading coming up and Fa Cup weekend but i think Dawson and Caulker had a good game, might have picked up a knock im not sure.

Agree1 Disagree0

Take note tight arse Levy , just two top class players needed , top 3 ours !! Give us a top striker , not a cheap throw out like Ade , and Willian ( spelling ) and we are there . Clear out a load of clutter , Hudd etc for what ever we can get , and INVEST in our team !!
Davo

Agree4 Disagree2

Are you Harry Davo? Vert has looked tired for a few games now, needed a rest. Remember last year when Harry played the same week in week out? Rotation is definately needed.

Agree2 Disagree1

I'd rather Townsend over siggs, he's RUBBISH

What I dnt understand is that we all know we need one more up front and none of us can see levy splashing 18 mil + on a striker soooo a no brainer has to be demba Ba from Newcastle, reported 7.5 mil buy out in his contract. He is proven in the prem and at a fantastic price considering what is about and for how much clubs want.go get him levy at worst
Mr g

Believable0 Unbelievable1

None of the big clubs are after demba Ba because they all know his knee is a ticking time bomb. The disrespect he has shown Newcastle is childish! Do not want him anywhere near our club thanks.

Agree2 Disagree0

Only a champions league team can activate his buyout clause

Agree0 Disagree0

Why do you think no one has bought him??
Injury prone....sulky.....he shoots more than defoe.

Everyone screams for the man of the moment.
Ba, cisse, michu

Ba need more chances than adebayor and Defoe put together.
He would sulk if on the bench.
A no good signing in my opinion.

We need bigger and better

Agree2 Disagree0

Qpr not in champions league met his sell on clause but he said he didn't want to go there tells me he can go anywhere mate

Agree0 Disagree0

On his way to the chavs!!

we need to make a few good signings a striker and a midfielder and if we dont we can kiss 4th spot goodbye. we also need to chop some of the s**t we have on our bench like jenas, bentley, huddlestone and swop them for some up and coming players and drop adebayor to a back up striker. If we get 4th spot over Arsenal watch them drop like a stone in water!!
