I take it you don't like him then colin? I wondered why he was at Sunderland stating that it was a huge mistake for him to go there and he shouldn't even be in the PL along with that part time shipbuilders team.

Newcastle winning at Villa is a result I don't know what to make of. I don't know what to make of Villa after their win at Arsenal and their bad luck at Chelsea and now this. They were my tip for the drop last season and if Bentenke leaves in January which he will then it's possible they'll be down this season. I'm going to look at next week's fixtures, back soon. Well done Everton but you played a Chelsea team on the wane I think but good luck to you.

Villa are an average side. Loads of people jumped on the bandwagon after a fluke win against a jaded Arsenal side but they've got massive problems and if Benteke goes in January then we may as get the yellow highlighters out and put an "R" beside their name.

As for Chelsea, momentary lapse in concentration (again) cost us the game, but it doesn't help when you have a team of chokers and bottlers in front of goal. Failed to score in 2/4 games already yet only conceded twice, we all know where the real problems lie.

It's quite obvious that whoever wins the league this season, will be a very ordinary side compared to past winners, as was the case in 2010/11, 2011/12 and 2012/13.

Perhaps we should revisit this once we know who 2-4 are in the final table ...

Remember the Wimbledon crazy gang and the star crazy?
Well Vinnie Jones went into a bar in the USA and got into an argument straight away and received a beer glass in his face needing 14 stitches in two cuts.
Somehow this was recorded by someone..........
I hope this has put a smile on your face to start your Sunday!!!!!!.........and he still wants to live there!

You know that Vinnie Jones is a Spurs fan, right?

You keep trotting out this mantra, but City and Chelsea alone have brought almost half a billion pounds worth of the so-called best players in the world into the PL over the past two years. Have these players improved the standard or not? Either Hazard, Oscar, Mata, Willian, Eto'o, Negredo, Fernandinho, Jovetic, Navas etc etc etc are top class players or you're conceding you've bought a load of turkeys.
 
"You keep trotting out this mantra"

And if the winner is "ordinary" this season, what does it say about 2-4
(hence my comment) .
 
District it should be failed to score in three out of four matches as against Villa it was a deflection and a goal by a player who should have been sent off. Who is it, Fulham next and if you don't beat them convincingly you will have problems.

Southampton, West Ham, awful.

Unless West Ham are playing us or Chelsea they shouldn't be on TV. I'm one of the few that likes Allardyce and I don't mind his tactics but it always makes for tedious watching, especially on a Sunday afternoon, which is usually reserved for the big games.

I am assuming you have mentioned the game today because you consider Southampton
to be a "rival" of Spurs.

This thread isn't really about rivals any more, so much as what other sides are doing.
They're rivals in the sense that they're in the same division, but that's about it.
Nice dig at The Academy of Defensive, Negative Hoofball, though! <laugh>
 
"Nice dig at The Academy of Defensive, Negative Hoofball, though"

Don't mock the Academy of Hoof. One day they will win England the World Cup.
 
Funny you should say that ...

This is very scruffy, very scruffy indeed. A move more akin to a Six Nations maul develops down the West Ham right
as Guy Medel and Mo Diame just run into opponents, scattering them in their wake.
It almost works too as the ball pops out into space but there's zero quality at the end of it.
