    The problem with the ginger tiddler is not getting him on the hook,
    but keeping him OFF it. :)

    So Sunderland's defence is better than ours? The stats certainly bear that out. <doh> <laugh>

    Well we will defer to your knowledge of how many goals Sunderland have
    conceded akin to the two Dele Alli scored with ease against Chelsky ...

    I am not the one suggesting that the same precise crossing that led to two
    comfortable Spurs goals against Chelsky was tried against Sunderland and failed.

    So how many such attempted crosses (attempted and successful) did you count in
    the Sunderland game ... ??

    Didn't see it. You insinuated that their defence is better than ours. It's not.

    Hmm ... "See it worked against Sunderland then" .
    So you actually didn't "see" anything. Or perhaps you have Wenger-vision ...


    "You insinuated that their defence is better than ours. It's not."

    No, I stated that perhaps their defence is better at defending against the type
    of precise crosses that Dele Alli scored from with ease against Chelsky, than Chelsky are.
    After watching the Goons blow a similar gifted chance yesterday, I may have a strong case.

    It wasn't tried against Sunderland? So how do you know that they're better at defending crosses? Wenger vision?

    According to you, you "see" it "worked" against Sunderland.
    In a match you didn't actually "see" . Is that correct ??

    You saw that Sunderland were better than us at defending crosses, even though you didn't have any crosses, Is that correct?

    As I said, I don't recall us making any such crosses.
    But you do, because you came here first and told us how you "saw"
    how that worked against Sunderland. Which brings us back to the question ...

    My question should be answered first (only chronologically fair, no) .
    Take as much time as you need (there is no rush) ...

    No you have to answer first, otherwise we have a stalemate. In your own time.
