    Huddlestone

    I'd love to see a comparison of his shots from distance with other players in the Prem. This idea that he is poor at shooting is just so poorly thought out. Just because he rarely scores doesn't mean he has a poor shot. He's not shooting from inside the box. Adebayor has a poor shot. Huddlestone...

    AVB & Spurs Tactics and Formations discussion thread

    Also it should be pointed out that Sigurdsson can be seen playing the same sort of pass to Dyer in one of his Swansea clips (1.50 posted below). Basically our first goal was about as good an example you can get of players just playing their normal game. Lennon loves to get in behind and Gylfi...

    AVB & Spurs Tactics and Formations discussion thread

    Huddlestone looks to play that same pass, as did Modric. I showed a clip in the match day thread prior to the game in which Modric played that pass to Lennon. Huddlestone tries to play that pass a lot and not just for Lennon. Most of his Youtube clips are of his goals, but some of his passes are...

    AVB & Spurs Tactics and Formations discussion thread

    Lennon's runs like that are nothing new at all. I can't believe anyone is suggesting it's down to a new system. This was typical Lennon. Ironically I was discussed BEFORE the game that Lennon is at his best cutting the ball back from the line. I was a better performance but ultimately we won...

    Official - Defoe

    Re: Jermain Defoe His dribbling is pretty good.

    Mousa Dembele

    I've seen lots of Dembele. His shooting isn't awful. His stats suggest it is and thus fans pick up on this and take notice every time he misses. It's a bit like our fans with the Hudd and his shooting. The Hudd has an excellent shot, but usually hits them from distance when there isn't a pass...

    ***OMT - TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs. READING - OMT***

    I think those stats included the 3 under AVB. On top of that prior to this season 3 of his last 4 starts on his own were twice against Emirates Marketing Project and once against Man Utd. Prior to that you have to go back along time to when he played up front on his own.

    ***OMT - TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs. READING - OMT***

    I thought it was a top performance all round. I actually thought the defensive side of the game was the most impressive. People will say Reading are brick, but in their other 2 games this season, they looked far more dangerous. Against us they were only a mild threat for a short period in the...

    ***OMT - TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs. READING - OMT***

    Okay it's not the team most of us would pick, but it's still a good team. It's way better than anything Reading can put out. We played well at Saudi Sportswashing Machine and I think this team is just as good and the opposition are nowhere near as good. In my opinion most of our fans aren't fully aware just...

    Andre Villas-Boas - Head Coach

    Re: **Official** Andre Villas Boas - Head Coach We've got one of the best squads in the Premier League. To say we have a broken team is ridiculous. The exact same argument could have been made based on the 2nd half of the season before last. Arsenal could have said the same after the first half...

    Modric - No Longer A Spurs Player

    Re: Modric Revisited. I thought the treatment of Ghaly was terrible. He was more than owed a petulant act after having his teeth knocked out for the cause.

    Modric - No Longer A Spurs Player

    Re: Modric Revisited. During Harry's reign we played 25 times without Modric and averaged 1.72 ppg. With him we averaged 1.77 ppg. There is a difference, but it's only worth about 2 points per season. As the squad improved over the years we actually became less dependent on him. In the last 2...

    Our scouting network

    Re: Broomfield You have to remember where we were at the time. Also Pleat wasn't responsible for first team signings. He changed the emphasis of the club and we started looking to recruit mainly young, British talent. Prior to this I don't remember much in the way of a decent recruitment...

    Our scouting network

    Re: Broomfield To be honest that's virtually everyone to an extent. It's not that we pretend to see players we haven't, but we just aren't watching them anywhere near as carefully as our own players. Watching other teams is just so different to watching Spurs as we don't do it with the same...

    ***OMT - TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs. READING - OMT***

    We've had only 3 games this season and Lennon can consider himself very unlucky not have 3 assists. The chance he set up against Saudi Sportswashing Machine for Bale, who headed against the bar, was a very good goal scoring opportunity. The ball he played that Defoe headed and then scored from provided a clear...

    The Academy, NextGen, U18 & U21 Premier League and On-Loan Thread

    AVB is the head coach. He's not the old style manager who runs the entire football side of things. I seriously doubt he'll be bringing a structure to the club as the point of having a head coach instead of a manager is that they come and go, whilst the club structure stays the same. If we...

    So not only is he a footaller that never players football, he's a restauranteur who never goes to his restaurant. He might as well claim to be an astronaut, that never goes into space.

    Hugo Lloris

    This is true. Today alone Wenger has had both his own and Sagna's future at the club questioned. But I doubt many of us have even taken a blind bit of notice. We are focusing on our own media witch hunt to the point we think we are getting special treatment.

    Hugo Lloris

    The thing is every club thinks there is a media agenda against them. I post on Villatalk and they are convinced the media hate them. I sometime post on RAWK and it's the same there. Redcafe posters think everyone including the media hate them. Bluemoon posters think the media have it in for them...

    ***OMT - TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs. READING - OMT***

    I would say this is an example of stats not being used at their best. A great crosser of the ball is a guy who can whip in a ball at the right height and speed, in such a way it takes people out of the game. So whilst Lennon might have a high completion rate of balls player from wide areas, it...
