All rumours wrong

Tottenham Hotspur ‏@SpursOfficial
Our team today is: Friedel, Walker, Gallas, Caulker, Vertoghen, Sandro, Huddlestone, Dempsey, Lennon, Bale & Defoe

And our subs today: Lloris, Naughton, Dawson, Livermore, Townsend, Falque and Sigurdsson #COYS

how many goals does gallas have to cost us before avb can see he is a liability? ( gallas for motm lol) .... we need a big game from dempsey today.
 
When are our missing players due back, FFS?
Assou-Ekotto, Dembele, Adebayor, plus the longer term Parker and Kaboul. That's half of our bloody side.

yeah its crap but maybe were not rushing them back.to create even longer injuries.
 
You can't remind someone about what might happen in the future - or is this a joke I don't get? They don't look very good at the moment, but a £100m spending spree in January will probably sort that out. If they don't recruit I think there is a danger they could implode this year and miss out. Utd don't look great either, but they will somehow manage to get in top two. I'm not sure that's true of City.

Of course you can, as I say he keeps writing City off and I keep reminding him they'll finish top 3, above us BTW.

Obviously mine is a prediction but it's to counter TMT's analysis of the situation which I don't agree with. It's nowhere near as bad as his Chelsea analysis, another team he's ridiculously written off, but it ain't too short of it.

Come the end of the season those two will be in the top 3, and TMT's continued sniping at them will look what it is, mistaken.

Yep rumours were wrong, Ade not even on the bench.

Absolutely stupid, rubbish team selection, I'm already completely and utterly fed up with AVB.

I still hope we win, but I'm finding it very hard to support the club at the moment.

Another 90 minutes of Friedel stuck on his line, shouting 'away'.


I'm absolutely fuming over this decision.
 
Rumours!...<doh>...but when making yourself look silly is your speciality, no real surprise.

Even with Bale this is going to be a tough game now, Saints will get a lift looking at that team sheet.

were back to the 4231 before dembele arrived. you remember how crap we looked? fans booing our negative performances.

luckly the saints are easy to create chances agaisnt so we should be ok today but that line up doesnt fill me with excitement.

Words fail me. Go and support someone else then, I can't believe you've supported the club for as long as you say you have if this is how you react to things you don't agree with, especially since you were supposedly outraged by the treatment of less popular players at the club when you do the same to Friedel.

And yet, if we win then you'll say how AVB is forgiven for this week but he better select your favourites next week!

Adebayor isn't match fit after his back injury, same as Dembele with his hip injury. BAE is still injured as is Kaboul.

The only one who could realistically fit in is Lloris and we all know where everyone stands on that issue.
 
lambert starts for saints as i assume he will out to harrass gallas.
 
The changes that Villas-Boas could've made, in my opinion, were at the back.
Lloris or Friedel, Dawson or Naughton in for Gallas. I guess Sigurdsson for Dempsey is a possibility, too.
I can understand his choices. Are they right? We'll know in a couple of hours.
 
Lee Mason hasn't taken charge of a Spurs game since he gave 3 penalties against us against Sunderland 3 seasons ago. Great...
 
That was close. Boruc dived in there and just deflected it wide. Risky. No corner...
 
boruc was the david james in scotland when he played for celtic so lots of crosses into the box please.
