I just bought the bird next me as a replacement for Berbatov and she's laughin at me.
"Yes Mr Levy, we have secured the services of Dean Windass"
Great news chaps, I have just won a trophy. I have been voted "Cunt of the Millenium"
"It's a good thing that nobody in the UK knows the truth about Billy Beane-that he's an incompetent moron!"

"Hey, Arsene- how do you like me now?"
Guess where my other thumb was during the transfer window??
"I have just shown her my cock and she says that I should stick to playing the cunt as opposed to trying to fuck one - that is an English joke, non???"

"Oi Arsene, I did it mate!
They're proper F*cked now!"
"I put a million euros on Hamburg to win the Bundesliga just like you said boss. "
"Damien, I can't hear you with all the noise. OK, just signal to me how many players you have recommended that have actually been a success. Is that a one? Thanks, enjoy the game"
"I am well in here Boss, she says I am hung like a Hamster - that's a good thing, right???"
One, Two, Three, Four,
I declare a thumb war!
Five, Six, Seven, Eight,
A sacking is my fate!
so ar*ene i just press the button and this place is history.
"Hey Boss, she said if I can fuck her as good as I fucked this club then I can spend the night at her place - you will give me a reference, right?"
yes arsene, you owe me a tenner - i told you they would take rasiak, double or quits says i can get away with offering dawson a new contract with a pay rise!!!!!!!!!

As a regular reader (and listener to your interviews on Football Fancast), I must admit that I'm surprised and disappointed that you would choose to endorse "Tottenham Massive" on your site Harry.
I'm not quite sure what I was hoping for, when I picked it up. Sure, I was expecting the violence, but I guess I would've liked to have seen some positive message about how Trevor had learned that it was pointless, or maybe an insight into the passion for a football club that can make someone carry out such obscene acts. However, I saw none of this: it reads like a diary, with each chapter listing the senseless acts that Tanner and his "firm" carried out, the various pubs they smashed up and groups of fans they fought with. Coupled with the revelation that Tanner actually stopped liking football and ended up just going to/around matches for violence's sake disgusted me. I have to admit I didn't read it all the way through, so maybe there's a glimmer of something positive in there, but I seriously doubt it.
Football violence isn't something to be celebrated and that's exactly what this book does.
Hey Boss, I just told her the "we are aiming for a top 4 place joke" - I told you it was bloody funny.
Hey Daniel have you read that load of crap that Jaunde has written on the official site tonight ? Nice one we couldnt have made that up ! Or did we ......?
"Thanks Arsene these kids are great, the site you told me was amazing, there so young!"
Sorry if i have upset anyone, it had to be done.
"Thumbs up who wants to play Swansea City next year"?
Job done, Danny boy. I've just signed another winger.....Stanley Matthews
Ever heard about the size of your thumb being compared to the size of your dick? I just gave her a glimpse.
"I told her that my cock was the same size as this thumb and she told me that she knew where I could put it - these English women are such fun, non??? I do get laid, right???"

Hi Acc,
The HH library is frankly a sprawling mess encompassing some works that are, shall we say, more mainstream than others.
One 'wing' of the library has the tomes of writers who do/have operated in what I can only call a twilight zone.
Dave Courtney, Freddie Foreman, Roy Shaw, Joey Pyle. These are men who led lives that were extraordinary. Which is to say out of the ordinary.
To object to what went on (in their worlds) simply on the grounds it was 'not very nice' is absolutely your perogative.
You are entitled to say, 'I wouldn't want to be stuck in a lift with so and so, because I think he's a _____'
But to the very best of my knowledge very very few 'civilians'/'non combatants' were ever involved in these people's anecdotes.
However, 'these people' as you might refer to them (my words, not yours) do make for a bloody good read.
You may wish to look down your nose at Tanner, but in common with the authors named above, I actually respect their honesty. If any of them attempted to glorify picking off innocent members of the public me and a whole army of book buyers would have evapourated a long time ago.
"Football violence isn't to be celebrated."
Nobody asked you to do so. Would be my response.
Hope that sheds some light.

Hi Harry,
I can see your point about reading such material for interest's sake, rather than on a basis of being pro/anti the subject matter. Perhaps I was a little short-sighted in some respects, as it is always up to the reader to take what is written and make their own judgements, based on how they perceive it.
However, I'm not convinced that I should respect the authors' honesty: Someone who carries out these acts doesn't deserve respect just because they choose to tell you about it.
I'll be keeping an eye out for the interview with an open mind.
Not a lot of people know, but the jacket buttons are a clue to how Bentley will take corners. Top button done up and bottom button open means Bentley will tap his chest three times before delivery. Buttons reversed means four taps. Both buttons done up means fine weather at Musselburgh and a fish supper.
The slut: The ego of this bloke, when I stuck my thumb up his arse, he didn't like it. When he sticks his own one up it, everyone has to know how good he is.
Hey Daniel, look on the bright side we have twice as many points as this
"But, you see? Wiz my left 'and I can pull ze dagger out of my back, mais non..?"

He's quoting Voltaire:
"As long as people believe in absurdities they will continue to commit atrocities"
I believe this man is an absurdity, and will continue to commit atrocities until people simply stop believing in him.
Once that happens he'll melt like Judge Doom did in Roger Rabbit. Hopefully not in the board room
The hardest time in anyones life is when you who to kill someone you love. just because they are the devil.

"I'll be keeping an eye out for the interview with an open mind."
Good man.
Phoenix Lander has located dust on Mars resembling Spurs' missing points, evidence that the team probably once scored goals and won matches, albeit a long time ago.
Despite the findings, there are still no new discoveries in the exciting search for life in Spurs' midfield.

this is all i was left with after working with that circular saw. cut me other arm clean off too.
after seeing most of the games this season ,i can t say anything else then this. i miss Martin Jol. two 5 fifth and one bad starter the next year. so we get our high profile manager that did good one place ,just like svennis ,the swedish guy who had his chances in the uk. and have nothing to show for. and this might be the end of ramos uk visit as well.
But the good part in all of this is that kevin keagen need something to do at the moment. But what would be better than seeing leavy humble him self in hamburg and bagging our old hero to come back and bring us back

"Big teams have gone down in the past but, no, Newcastle won't go down at all," he says. "No danger whatsoever."
I like that 'at all' phrase. A club either stays up or goes down. It doesn't stay up or go down 'a bit.'
I'm relived. I thought Joe was being serious at first.

I have to disagree .. we all knew Jol had his shortcomings .. he could'nt hold onto a lead .. and he had the best striker partnership the prem has ever seen ..
On the other hand Seville were playing the best football anyone had ever seen .. pity Commoli did not recognise that it was probably more to do with the players at his disposal and also the manager's erratic job pattern ..
Commoli is largley to blame .. time to give someone else a go at the chequebook ..

If we stick with Ramos and Poyet, the worse that can happen is we get relegated. If we exchange them for another coaching team the worse that can happen is we get relegated.
May as well get behind the staff we have. Time to stay calm and stabilise, not panic and rock. Ramos and Poyet aren't stupid, but we currently have a few klutzes on the pitch. Any players not pulling their weight are pushing their luck. Now is the time for all good balls to descend into their respective sacks and men to stand up.

A few extremely decent deliveries from Hod. Of course, the ball was heavier then, air was thinner, and many a monkey-nut merchant wore a scruffy overcoat.

Harry, I feel better about my ‘unhealthy’ obsession with Nigella now that I know I’m not alone.
Who would have thought something so voluptuously delightful could have been produced from the loins of a deeply ugly man such as Nigel? There’s no accounting for genetics eh?
Perhaps we'll see a damage limitation exercise till the January transfer window when, allegedly, we'll buy Arshavin to pair up with Pav. Pity they'll both be knackered by that point. I think Gomes has been one of our best players so far.

"Thumbs up for Patience"
I think we are being very critical of comolli. If we are judging him on this season -
Gomes - better than Robbo
Bentley/Modric - not one person would have turned these players down when we bought them
Giovanni - only cost a shade less than 5 mill and is one for the future
Boystock - again a bargain and great for future.
Even in last Jan Window
Hutton - one of best right backs in prem
Woodgate - england international - good centre half.
If you look at our back 4 + goalkeeper
Gomes
Hutton
King
Woodgate
Bale
To be honest there is not too many players i would swap.
The midfielders we have got - Jenas, Bently, Lennon (England Internationals) Modric, Giovanni. O'Hara, Huddlestone, Zakora.
They are not bad midfielders - which should be doing better.
Strikers
Bent
Pav
This is the only area as a whole which is weaker than the last 5-10 years.
Is this Comolli fault - to a degree but not entirely - he didnt say sell our top 2 strikers! It is his job to replace them - which how do you replace Berb and Keane?? We didnt waste money on just signing any striker in Jan Window - we took Frazer on loan as oppose to wasting millions just for sake of it.
I do believe we need a another quality striker/def midfielder/left winger.
However you ask any managaer in prem league and they will also say they need to improve in certain areas.
The truth is our players are underperforming - this is not Comolli fault - This lies down to the players and management.
I think a lot of blame lies with Ramos, im not saying sack him - but they players we have are not bad - he needs to be doing better. I will give him time, but I think we need to look at the bigger picture - Who is to blame for Spurs poor start??
Look at Comollis signings since last Jan and ask yourself would you have signed them?
The answer will be yes!

the only reason people are being over critical is because of his previous employer.
Im not saying he has done an excellent job BUT he has not deserved the abuse he has been getting - I think fans need to wake up a little - Does Comolli pick the team + Does he pick the tactics - NO!!!
Look at the squad we have now -
is it better than Boro, Sunderland, Wigan, Portsmouth, Villa????
YES YES YES
So how is are poor start down to Comolli???
Levys unwillingness to just pay the fucking money when requried is what stops us being a top club challenging for honours.
Comolli does a decent job in getting the top names lined up. but levy just wont pay the required. See Arshavin. I doubt he is a lone example.
However whilst Levy can be blamed for the fact out sights are undoubtably midtable, getting us relegated will be solely the credit of Ramos.
Levys policies make us a midtable club, Ramos tactics make us a bottom 3 club.
team work in action.
Yes!!!!! Arsenal are 3-1 up at the lane...I knew those fake player registration papers for Ekotto would come good in the end..now their left side is sorted...its time to screw them upfront!
Ahh, you know times are bad when all fans can do is poke fun at our management. 3rd caption comp of the season isn't it? I say let's have one every week.

We need to show Comolli the door and appoint Venebles as the go between role, he knows the role, he knows the league, he loves Spurs.
This isn't a rash statement, he hasn't scouted properly for 2 seasons now, he has had money to bring in players and cost Jol his job, he will cost Ramos his job if we lose in Poland this week and liverpool at home in the carling cup.
He should go and Venebles should come in.

how has he cost Ramos his job?? if ramsos loses his job it his fault no one else, well maybe the players who have underperformed.
so how is it comolli fault if ramos loses his job?

Tottenham need to come out and say who is actually responsible for the signings, and then they can be held to blame if the signings have been good, or bad, and if more bad than good, get rid of them, and get someone in that can do the job required!!

most boardrooms are the same - yet clubs are still successful - i think the blame for spurs poor start in percentage terms should be:-
Levy 15%
Comolli 15%

Players 20%
Morning all
I would entertain a response to Comolli's comical picture but I'm afraid things are far more serious than that.
I only got to see bits of the Pompey game on Sunday due to family issues. I didn't think we played too badly but we clearly lack a goal threat. Is it no surprise that we look more dangerous as soon as Gio is pushed up closer to Pav? No it isn't.
I'm not going to analyse too much of the Pompey game because to be quite honest I really don't know what to think and who is to blame for our poor form this season.
It simply isn't good enough. Up until now I have preached patience to all my Spurs supporting friends and family and I'm loathe to sack another manager as we did with Jol. BUT, I'm starting to worry! On Monday morning at 3am I woke up and couldn't get back to sleep due to worrying about where Spurs are going (sad I know) I actually started breaking down our squad, trying to find pro's & cons for every player we posess and then trying to sort them into a coherent line-up. I came up with this team:
GK - Gomes
RB - Hutton
CB - Corluka
CB - Woody
LB - Baler
RW - Bentley
CM - JJ OR Modric
CM - O'Hara
LW - Lennon
CF - Gio
ST - Pav
In a 4-4-1-1 I reckon that is our strongest starting 11. I think we may just have to call it quits on Ledley, we should keep him on the bench and bring him on when games need shoring up or when we are under pressure AND maybe wheel him out for the big games. Modric needs time to settle into the PL, I'm sure when he does that he'll be a valuable acquisition to the side.
There are some players in the squad that SHOULD NOT be there, BAE, Gilberto, Dawson, Zokora (for all his effort) is heading that way too.
Our inability to conclude our squad building before August 16th has hit us hard and left us performing at pre-season levels in this early part of the season.
Like I said, I don't really know what to think about our current situation. All I know is that I'm worried!
Gio, O'hara, Lennon & Modric in the team would have the physical presence of the under 9's. Not saying they are bad players but they would just get destroyed.

The problem with Ramos he doesnt know our best 11, he has been experimenting all season and still doesnt know.
Reply to Grazza:

O'Hara - Has more of a footballing brain than Zokora, runs about more than Hudd.
Gio - Why do we always look more threatening when he comes on?? Because he picks the ball up and attacks players - Whereas we seem happy to string passes along the oppo's box at present)
Modric OR JJ - JJ is my preference sheerly because he has more PL experience than Modric
Who's to say that YOU NEED to have big physical players in midfield?? Ar5ena1 haven't had a big player in midfield since Viera, Man Utd haven't had a big guy in CM since..... Keane was their hard man and he wasn't big.
Hudd, IMO doesn't put enough effort in. If he did then of course I think he shouls start but he doesn't seem to 'want it' enough, in the same way O'Hara would run his nuts off for Spurs.
Poyet said the other day that the players need to put more effort in than they are now. They need to up it. I feel that players like O'Hara and JJ will do that and drive the side on. I can't see Hudd or any other of our CM's doing that.
i actually agree with jamiespurs.
arsenal run circles around that championship side with some kiddies.
And i can guarentee you the only tactic in the sheff dressing room was to kick the fuck out of them and intimidate them
didnt work.

Ramos had what looked like a best 11 in Pre-season. Then come August 16th he changed it. He's changed it for every game since! I feel thats where the biggest portion of blame can be proportioned to. Until we settle on a side and play the players in their CORRECT positions we will continue playing poorly. Of course Ramos didn't have his squad completed until September 2nd but we are better than the sub-standard performances we have been putting in of late!

"This is what i did to Fergie by holding off on the Berbatov deal - now why is there a bullet hole in my shoe?"
well ,we can all admit that spurs have to be the best team in the whole world getting our hopes up. Every summer it seams like Spurs are a team at the same level as barcelona ,or at least have the potential of getting there . well ,i won `t argue about the potential part of our team ( well ,we do lack some potential parts up front , but besides that were alright on the potential part). But potential and preforming are to very different things. So for us supporter´s sake stop the talking about top four and all this things. so we can start living our lives with an realistic view on how things are . yes there is potential!!! But let us see one game at the time and if the potential get s where we all hope it s going .Let it be our bonus !!! stop the big time talking ,and start preforming!!!!!!!!

what planet are you on???
Ramos had a great reputation and i for one was delighted when he arrived. His success for Sevilla was unrivalled - every club he has worked for he has improved them.
Hes French??? - whats that got to do with it - what nationality was Ginola - italian? spanish? croatian? scottish?
I would like to know what hobbits your talking about??
Jol didnt loose his job because of Comolli - he lost it because he was tactically poor - he made some poor decisions. Im not saying he was poor, i liked him as a person - he is a great coach - but managing a team - i dont think he has what it takes - he could prove me wrong but i doubt it - dont say Hamburg until the end of season.
JGM
Good shout with the selection. I'm not 100% sure that Modric can maintain the hustle & bustle of the PL just yet so JJ would get the nod for me.
Dos Santos' recent cameo's have been bright spots and I think he deserves a start.
I think we desperately need a win (a good win) to give us some confidence. I just don't know where that win OR goals are going to come from. I think for the Krakow game we should adopt a shoot on site policy and really have a go tat them. We have ti players its just the confidence we are missing.

Tell us something we don't know/ have already said!
If we stick with roughly your side, I'd argue Campbell for Gio and Bale left mid with Lennon for Bentley(until he's lost at least half a stone). Bentley looks to me like a man who got the move he's always wanted and has now relaxed/eaten. We stick with it and we'll be fine, not great but fine. Oh and as fans, just support, no booing, make the players love playing at the lane, not dreading it!
After all my dealings, Gomes is looking solid...ok Boss, My job still safe?
Arsenal have won fuck all since viera went.
Keane Punched well above his weight, as do Scholes And Hargreaves.
There is a difference between small and lightweight. Ive never seen scholes knocked off the ball but ive seen Hud (who i agree is pretty pony) knocked off it lots, read the same for JJ, Ohara, Modric, Gio & Lennon.
Modric & Gio may well toughen up and i hope they do but for now they arent in the same league as any of the midfielders you have mentioned.
O'hara wouldnt get in Utds 3rd Team. Isnt he an Arsenal Reject?
I wouldnt read too much into Arsenal beating Sheff Utd, they are awful.

I agree - we need a settled side to grind out a few results. My heart is torn i really believed in ramos, i was delighted when he arrived, but i am now questioning him - is this wrong???
Food for thought: Spain won the Euro's with a midfield of midgets didnt they?
So i suppose it can be done but you have to have exceptional talent at your disposal. Modric & Gio may eventually fall into that category - the rest i am not so sure about.
It is also a case of how much more physical the prem is compared to international level. I think its a lot more physical.

We cannot judge modric/giovanni on this season so far - they need time to adjust + they are young.

One thing we have learnt from this bad form we are having is that Bale cannot play LM/LW. He prefers LB and this shows in his performances. His attacking play from deep gives us an extra dimension and I feel he is best utilised there.
Grazza - O'Hara is a yid, his family are yiddo's too. Spurs poached him from Arsenal's academy (correct me if I'm wrong). Unfortunately, the window is shut and we have to go with what we have at present! IMO O'Hara is the best of what we have in the CDM position. Zokora runs about alot but cannot pass, shoot or do anything with a football and Hudd is lazy and seems to rely on his passing to carry him through games (a ploy that has seen him benched)

I can't vouch for JOH being poached or being a reject. It wasnt a cheap shot at him because he gives his all, rather an indication of where i think hes at as a player.

If we focus on Ramos - the question we have to ask ourselves is simple
- do we beleive in him?
If we answer yes then we have to give him time.
Myself i have been scrathing my head about thinges he has done - but dont forget he is new to the league as well.
So I will say it.
In Ramos I trust.
In Comolli I trust.
In Levy I trust.
In Tottenham I trust.

Both the film "Football Factory" and the TV series "Real Football Factories glorify senseless violence in the name of supporting a football club. Such beaviour is abhorrent and it's that kind of idiotic belligerism that gives real supporters a bad name.
You'll be pleased to hear that Trevor thinks The Football Factory is a load of old rubbish then.
I cannot excuse the football factory film for spawning the "jog on" & "mug" generation.
In the same way that Friends cannot be excused for spawning the "like" generation. The same generation whos sentences all in increase in pitch towards the end.
is matt lucas resposible for the vicky pollards of today ?. weren't they just holding up a funfair mirror?.i find it difficult to believe that writers of this genre have the ability to spawn anything, it would take more imagination than they're capable of. writers of facile w*nk like the football factory find an exploitable topic to twist a cupfull of facts into a bucket of fantasy.

One thing we have learnt from this bad form we are having is that Bale cannot play LM/LW. He prefers LB and this shows in his performances. His attacking play from deep gives us an extra dimension and I feel he is best utilised there.
Grazza - O'Hara is a yid,...I can't vouch for JOH being poached or being a reject. It wasnt a cheap shot at him because he gives his all, rather an indication of where i think hes at as a player.
I totally agree with the rest of your points. Sadly. I lost patience/hope that Zokora or Hud would be the answer to...
Hudd needs a rocket up his arse and a proviso that he'll be loaned out unless he pulls his finger out and starts putting the effort in and bossing midfields. He has the weaponry he just refuses to use it.
Zokora - He runs about (ALOT) but when it comes to passing the ball he can't seem to pass water let alone a football, how many barnstorming runs have we seen from Zok only to see him lose the ball when he should of passed it? or even worse fall over under a poofy tackle?? That makes my blood boil!
The fact is that O'Hara is the best of that bad bunch. He is industrious and gets in peoples faces. He can pass the ball, he can shoot and his versatility gives us options during the game. Admittedly, yes he is short but when it comes to having heart he's got more than Zokora and Hudd put together.
At this current moment in time Spurs need people that will run from minute 1 to the end of 90mins and injury time. O'Hara will do that for us. I just wish that his enthusiasm and passion would rub off on some of the others in the squad.
On another note I would really like to see us go for Krakow in the UEFA Cup. Go 4-4-2 and really batter them, forget the form book and the performances that have gone before. Spurs NEED heroes, committment and a desire to win, players like JJ, O'Hara, Woody, King, Gomes should be gearing the boys up for Krakow and let them know that a performance is needed.
F*ck me, just give some of us 10mins with the boys before kick off and I'm sure we could let them know how important a good performance is needed.
This poor form has to stop.

why hasn't he tried charlie as dm?. he can tackle, pass and he's good going forward. he's not too quick but neither is scholes etc. gunter as rb until hutton's back.
I've got to say, there's a lot of talk on this page about which players can play with who, which formations work and which don't, who is too lightweight, who is too slow, who is out of position, why is the squad being rotated etc, but nobody seems to be mentioning the most important thing when a team step out onto a football pitch............
PUT SOME DAMN EFFORT IN!! RUN AFTER THE BALL, TACKLE, MARK SOMEONE, ACTUALLY MOVE SO YOUR TEAM-MATES CAN PASS TO YOU, YOU FRICKING LAZY TW*TS. AND DON'T HANDBALL IN THE BOX YOU STUPID DONKEY, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE OUR CAPTAIN!!
Am I being unfair here? I don't really think I've seen any desire so far this season from the majority of our players. I know they're low on confidence, we're missing our leaders from last year and the team needs time to gel, but after all the talk of Ramos' super training regime and all of our facilities etc, I haven't even seen one player as committed to the cause as the whole Hull team were against the arse on Saturday.
Lennon is probably my main exception, as well as Bent and probably Campbell. Also I have to respect Bentley for at least TRYING to get some crosses in, every other player seems to be shirking their responsibility at any opportunity, because things weren't going all their way.
IMO, too many fans are blaming it on Levy, Comolli and Ramos when there is only a certain amount they can do. The players are the ones actually out on the pitch when we play our games.
Wow, that got the anger out. Capital letters is highly recommended for any, correction, all yids needing to get some anger out. (Which is all of us atm.)

Oh yes, Zokora is also really trying hard. I say make him captain and watch him become better than Gerrard.

Thanks for the tips on how to F**k up a club Mr Ashley! but I think I'm doing better than you!!!
I have had my first optmistic thought about Tottenham Hotspur in ages.
Will something click? Will the service from the middle to the final third come and the striker get fed?. We need gio or modric (maybe it will be Bentley, doubt it) to become our Glen Hoddle in attacking midfield. To do that we need a holding midfielder behind them, in our current squad charlie seems the best candidate.
This system worked for Ramos in Sevilla. I say we give him a month to see if he can make it work here.
Then, if not its the axe.

************************************************************************************************************************************************
What can we the fans do to improve our clubs current situation? I am not privileged enough to frequently visit white hart lane, maybe twice a year, so I can have no hands on approach to this problem. But we need to do something. We need to lift the team, let them know we are right behind them, have faith in their ability and have every confidence in their ability. We need to install a carnival atmosphere at white hart lane, much like the atmosphere Ramos fell in love with in our UEFA Cup tie with Sevilla. Remember, 2-0 down at half time, needing 4 goals to progress. The atmosphere as the team came out for the second half was probably the greatest I've ever witnessed.... the elctricity in the place was amazing.
If we can have an atmosphere like that for our next 3 home games, then surely we can lift the team, lift our performance and surely have no problem picking up 6 points against Hull & Bolton, progressing past Liverpool in the Carling Cup and setting outselves up nicely for a tricky trio of games against Arsenal, liverpool and City.
We need to lift our team in their time of need. this is fucking Tottenham Hotspur and they need us now like never before.

Good formation and theory. However, I have to disagree with you on this occassion. This is the Premier League not La Liga.
The PL see's players being hustled and harried until they pass the ball, beat their man or get tackled. Players don't get time to dilly and dally on the ball. Until Modric gets used to the pace of the PL JJ has to get a start. Gio is either a Striker/Forward/Winger not a CM. I think Gio has been one of our most consistent performers over the recent games and IMO he should play just behind Pav OR Bent this will see his dribbleing and incisive passing utilised.
Bale and Hutton - If we could get the two of them fit and firing then I'm sure our performances would pick up. They can both defend to a point and of course their main bow is their attacking ability. Their drive from wide defensive positions would see them both drilling crosses in for Bent/Pav to feast upon.
Like I said Bruce, I'm loathe to disagree with you but on this occassion I simply must.
RJ1882 - I completely agree fella!
THIS IS FUCKING TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR! THIS IS OUR CLUB NOW GET BEHIND THE TEAM!
Jamie, I see Gio as someone who can play behind Pav and feed him the ball close to their goal. JJ inspires v. little confidence. I agree with you about Hutton and bale though.
A lot is hinging on Hutton's return.

4-5-1. I belive we need 3 centre midfielder in order to allow modric the more creative role. i think jj could do a job in the holding role - fit athletic and could break up play. play giovanni also centre midifield tho he does have the ability to push forward and support pav. lennon bently on the wings - i think bently needs to show more desire but i do belive he has got it in him - he needs to be playing on the right.
the back 4 would be sound - with bale and hutton bombing forward.
4-5-1 - its not a negative formation if played correctly.

I understand your feelings on JJ. However, I feel that Modric has much to learn about the PL before we can start relying on him in the middle of the park (lets not forget that Modric is still young & adapting to a foreign country and a foreign style of football).
Ramos has made JJ vice-captain and as such we must expect that he'll play when he's fit. In defence of JJ, this season he has been one of the few that have played with any passion. I know he ballsed up on Sunday but that aside he's tried whenerver possible to push the team on and try and lead them (it just so happens that for one reason or another the rest of them are struggling for confidence)
Gio, when he has come on in recent matches has immediately brightened up our play, he's caused problems for the oppo's defence and of course looks to attack at every opportunity. I think if we can push him up closer to Pav/Bent that he'll really make a difference. We need to have faith in the boy and I'm sure he'll repay us with performances (remember when Lennon was the young gun??)
Obviously, with me living in Glasgow I have heard all about Hutton and I can say that he's easily the best player that Scotland have produced for donkey's years. I think so much hinged on Bale & Hutton being fit this year and that our play would encompass & use their attacking abilities to their full advantage. If Bale is fit when Hutton comes back I can imagine that we will see a much better Spurs side.
I just hope that is soon!

Yes it does, its a bustling metropolis, rich and varied in its assets. Too many to mention - honestly
Here's my tuppence for the first time in a couple of weeks... i had to take a self imposed break. Its starting to kill me softly.
4-4-2!!!
I like Gomes so far. Press are looking for a story here and its just not happening. He's awesome.
At the back we need (a healthy sense of realism... and) Bale, Woodgate, Corluka and Gunter til Hutton is fit.
Lennon is playing over and above my expectations given his poor form last year so i'd have him on the left- his running is direct and his crossing isnt his strongest so he may as well have an option to cut in. Bentley cost a lot of money and looks confused as he seems to switch every game. Play him on the right! Jenas for me to start in DM (possibly Huddlestone mind) and Modric.
Upfront Bent and Giovanni. Pavlyuchenko is a bench option at best currently, he's tired looks it and will quickly lose all confidence if made to play anymore games on his own. Campbell, well he's a squad player at best- except in UEFA

To anyone who says "we need to get behind the team" we are, dont ever question the atmosphere at the lane or away for that matter.

vincenzo_spur
Hudd - Lazy and at the moment doesn't have the stomach for the fight.
Modric - Too lightweight at present and still adjusting to the pace of the PL.
Bent - Isn't better than Pav, his pre-season form and confidence has now been 'benched out of him'
Nothing would make me happer than for those 3 to prove me wrong but Hudd IS lazy, Modric IS still adapting & Benty NEEDS some more goals.

Am i the only one who thinks Pav and bent can play up front together,
in my mind they are not similar at all. Bent is all about pace playing on the last man, that doesnt strike me as Pavs game at all.

Pav can control the ball too.
Maybe you're right but T'hudd for one hasn't had the chance to play this season to any great extent. What do you think?
Pavlyuchenko probably is better than Bent but he looks obliterated. At the moment he seems to have no confidence or energy and he isnt getting any service. I saw him play last month against Wales and he looked fifteen times the player he looks at the moment for us. Bent at least is used to the Prem. I also like Bent a lot, his goal against chelsea was well taken and he deserved the chance more than anyone.
Modric, i agree unfortunately jamie... He isnt the full ticket yet and he does look weak physically. In which case it has to be Jenas...
Final point mate... Bent needs to play to score. Gus said him and Pavlova are too similar but i dont agree at all. As soon as Bent came on on sunday he had a half chance from a through ball- he plays on the shoulder of the last man. If Pav was deployed as a target man then he would surely benefit from the flick-ons etc.
i dunno anymore... still have the hope that a win would change a lot

Bents control put him in an awesome position but his finish was wild as James closed him down.
We can't judge ANY of our players until they've had a fair run in the side...
Examples: Bentley (has hardly played RW and hasn't suddenly gone shit-even if he looks it!), Modric (he's meant to be a dictator in the middle but he's not used to the pace or style we play yet- this should come with time), J2S (class but young and erratically employed here and there and everywhere)...
Having said that... Dawson (with me jamie?) has had enough chances, as has Assou-Ekotto. we know where we are with them

P.S. On a totally different note, read an article about playing Bale as the DM. While at first i was not convinced, reading on it did start to make a bit of sense but maybe that was just good writing....

I think Bent and Pav can play up front together. They are professional footballers, they have all day everyday to get used to one anothers game on the training pitch. Ramos & Gus should try and coach them instead of calling it an open/shut case after only a few games into Pav's Spurs career.
Bent has pace to burn and the ability to get in behind, Pav is a target man, good with his feet and good at getting into the box and on the end of chances. DO THEY SOUND LIKE SIMILAR PLAYERS TO YOU???
Vincenzo - Hudd had to work very hard to ensure that Ramos didn't ship him out in the summer! He lost weight and started to play well but it seems like he has regressed this season. He's obviously not pulling his weight in training and as such isn't seeing any game time. I wished he would apply himself, he would be awesome if he strode around the park, demanding the ball and then spraying passes to peoples feet. Unfortunately, I doubt i'll ever see that.

agreed. but with two targets stretching a defence it is easier to find a proper pass than when you have one forward surrounded by defenders.
I dont think the problem is that passes are rubbihs more that no one is showing for the pass. If you are in midfield with the ball and everyone is behind or level with you what can you possibly do.
Lennon and TwoSaints on the wings right up against the full backs. Pav and Bent in the face of the centre backs
Thats what we should have done against Pompey and should do against Hull
Personally I will be highyl pissed if we pick a good side against the Poles and sacrifice our side for the weekend.

Sorry VS i was being Facetious, I couldn't help myself
Although i agree with all the points you make, I would rate touch and ability to read the ball being received by Bent as one of his weaknesses. Try and watch for it to see what i mean, his first touch in the lead up to the goal against chelsea is a perfect example, luckily he slotted that one.
He doesnt seem to find space like Pav can either. Pav creaps around in the shadows of the box, hence the goal against newcastle. Bent seems to be handcuffed to the opppositions biggest, baddest centre half.
saying Pav and bent cant play together smacks of bad coaching methods to me.
The most worryign quote of the weekend was Ramos' 'well one up front worked during the week so we thought we would try it again'....to me that says shit, we are just winging it game by game hoping eventually we stumble over the right tactics.
WHich suggests there is no long term game plan ar all.

i had to laugh on sunday when i saw dawson marking crouch at the corners, tried to wrestle him to the ground at one stage. The mans a liability and it was lucky the ref didn't see it (must have forgetten to go to specsavers as the silly fu*k missed the handball in the second half) but then again the central defence wasn't the problem on sunday, it was the lack of creativity

You'd be amazed how much support Les gets on here. IMO he's been sh*t for over 18months now and that in Football terms is a bloody long time!! And yet, he still got rewarded with a new contract in the summer!
Dawson is where the season went wrong. Ramos' decision to play him against Boro saw him balls up THREE TIMES meaning we conceded 3 goals (Wheaters disallowed goal)and from then on we didn't really stand a chance. Liability is too kind a word for Dawson.

they are corn rows i believe, my younger brother is down with the homies. blood
While i may not be Dawson's biggest fan i think its a bit harsh to blame him for the sh*t we've had to watch at the start of this season. It can't be easy coming in one game and out the next, one the joys of our squad rotation, and it obvious he's been lacking in confidence for some time now but management should be taking him aside and addressing these problems in training. King is no longer able to do it week in week out which is obvious to everyone but he will no doubt start on thursday so how is the central partnership to grow. Corluka is obviously the person for the job but maybe Ramos doesn't think so
I was watching pompey after playing football on sunday with a mate who supports arsenal. He thought Dawson was good, couldn't believe we call him Les.
Wor Les ey? what are we gonna do with him? Maybe we can loan him to Hull for the weekend...

Corluka IMO is only playing RB because Hutton is injured. When Hutton recovers he'll step into RB and Corluka will move to CB. King will be on the bench and Dawson will be where he belongs - THE RESERVES!
It may well be harsh to blame him for everything thats gone wrong this season BUT he's not very good at all and we need to get rid of him and BAE. Complete & utter liabilities the pair of them, if you ask me!

Me too, but King isn't fit enough to climb a set of stairs let alone play 2 games in 7days! and as most of us have agreed, Dawson cannot fill any defensive gap, our options are limited.
I'd try Gunter at CB next to Woody. He has played there for Wales and Cardiff in the past and for the life of me I can't understand how he's dropped of the Ramos radar inrecent times.
Jamie..
I hope Corluka is a better CB than RB.. so far i have been hugely 'less than whelmed'
Bruce..
He's not mobile enough for DM..
