    It was seven wasn't it? Anyway it's now ten so they can concede and play for 5th or 6th.

    If Eriksen got injured Spurs might not even finish top half

    That's nonsense. Eriksen's a good player, but there are no superstars in a Pochettino side. They're all about the team, but if there's one player they can't afford to lose it's probably Harry Kane.

    They look pretty ordinary away from home. Different outfit at WHL, they are compact, bright and quick to the ball. Away from home they just seem scared to play.

    Kane is just a younger Vardy, scores a lot in a well performing team, offers nothing when things aren't going his way

    You reckon?

    At St Marys they looked they had an extra man, the way they kept running into space and pulling our defence about. Not that we were great that day, but they pulled us all over the place. Though come to think of it, they did have an extra man - Nathan Redmond got sent off <laugh>

    Didn't think they played badly yesterday - Mane was the difference, & Spurs missed Vertonghen. They probably shouldn't have left all that space for Mane to run into though.

    So he's a striker who relies on confidence and supply then?

    <laugh> Fair comment.

    He's not a game changer and Spurs will only succeed if the rest of the team is able to carry him in big games

    Why's that? Is he planning to go in goals for us whilst he's injured? Can't see no other reason. For me our full backs are the two most important players and make our system tick. Oh and Kane due to no serious back up.

    Then again I'm talking to Astro lol.

    So anyway, the spiral is back on. If it doesn't happen GM can just claim he was only joking and winding the spuds up :)

    Not you mate :)

    But HIAG has given everybody a get out clause for any comment that goes tits up, because when his backfire he 'wasn't being serious'
