Lack of adequate cover really due to injures to Wilshere and Diaby and Gervinho going to the ACN and then coming back and being absolutely ****e
 
From what I've seen of Holtby, he's decent enough, without being spectacular

Are you on commission every time you say that cause you've said it in several threads. Have you made yourself believe it yet?
 
Piskie I really don't see how you can say you would rather have Ramsey over Holtby. You must have seen Holtby play all of 2 times! It's quite clear you are gutted he has chosen us over you, something which is becoming fairly common and are trying desperately to convince yourself that he's average and no improvement on what you have. Obviously none of us know how he will perform in the premier league, but he's the Germany U21 captain and that's good enough for me right now.
 
I would rather have Ramsey over Holtby, there I said it.
 
Who's removed my comment? YV why have you removed my comment? Come on man I get a lot worse on some boards and no body removes it...I love our mods but give me some space to say the odd thing!

We only mod this board so can't comment on how others run their's. On here we feel that foul mouthed abuse of another user is not only unacceptable but it also creates arguments which people not involved don't want to have to read.

Yeah I totally agree, however it's only Piskie
 
I'm intrigued to know what Dona's comment was!
I like Piskie, he seems a nice bloke but he has to be the most blinkered (he would call it loyal) fan out there.
I'm going to try and be Piskie, here goes:
"I would prefer to have Livermore than Wilshere. If I keep telling myself this then I will believe it, I know I will, and then it means its true. So there."

That's plainly not true though. Simply making something up to try and convince yourself of a point is silly, so it doesn't really make a very good analogy. I am biased towards Arsenal, I admit that. And whilst I haven't seen much of Holtby I've probably seen more of him than most Spurs fans, so at least I have some basis to make a judgement.

I think he's a decent enough player, but as far as Arsenal goes I don't think we really need him as we've got Wilshere, Arteta and Cazorla who are streets ahead. In my opinion Ramsey is a better player - although still not at his best - and we've got Eisfeld coming through the ranks, who has been likened to Mario Gotze.

That's my opinion, I'm not sure why some people are getting so upset about it ?

Probably because it's so predictable and you're posting it on the Spurs board. No offence, I understand the point you're trying to make and that.

Eisfeld has been likened to Gotze? Not really a shock as he's a product of the Dortmund youth system and plays a similar role. Bale used to get compared to Giggs because he's Welsh and left footed, it's just laziness and nothing to get carried away with.
