*** Tottenham Hotspur vs Sheriff Tiraspol OMT ***

Paulinhio. Showing in his brief stint what he brings to the team. A drive to get into the box and score.

Just love watching spurs. Seeing Defoe break a record, seeing the making of our next world class star. Fascinating tactical battle

What a wonderfully upbeat post. A nice reminder. Being Spurs is magical. Always.

Tromso and Anzhi games are followed by Manure and Liverpool - both massive games. No way we should be picking anyone who would play v MU or Liverpool in those EL games

Who made Andy Townsend the authority on overhead kicks?

An underrated player.

We play so much better when players get closer to each other. We can then get moves going. Too often players are isolated and have to pass backwards and across as a result.

What's the Anzhi score

 

[rosenthal]

tonight I have thought that Brad is showing his age now. Slow movement and reactions.

Oldest player ever to play the Europa League apparently

 

[fishnc]

Eriksen played much better in the second half.

Really? Against Hull and tonight I have thought that Brad is showing his age now. Slow movement and reactions. This season should be his last and Gomes needs to go for his own sake. So we need a good reserve keeper.

Has it taken you nearly two years to realise? :lol:

Cost us every game at the start of last season = NO CL

Cost us europa league last season..

 

[El Guepardo]

Woohoo Holtby on now too watch him have an impact

 

[diego_maradona]

We should just ban away fans. Seems like a wicked laugh in there today

To be fair mr Townsend scored a few acrobatic goals in his time. And I remember a scissor kick against us whilst he was with BlueScum

What's the Anzhi score

0-0. As it stands we win the group tonight.

Not enjoyed having him in goal ever since he signed for us.

Yep - the quetstion is: what sort of CMs are best suited to the central '2' in this 4-2-3-1 formation? Do we want:
- a defensive CM a la Sandro or Capoue
- a playmaker (Modric type)
- box to box type like Paulinho

Personally I think we need a defensive CM partnered by a playmaker (who we dont have at the moment). Am not really sure where Dembele or Paulinho fit in

 

[chancer]

Being invisible has its advantages on a football pitch. Nobody picking up Paulinho's run.

Miaaaooww.

 

[diego_maradona]

0-0. As it stands we win the group tonight.

Cheers mate, I'm so lazy sometimes. I could have easily found that out lol

 

[El Guepardo]

Great control from Lamela there

 

[Pirate55]

Can we pay for Lammys brother to attend every game now please.

After Gomes he was kind of what we needed. A commander of his box and good at crossss and a pretty decent shot stopper.

But this summer should have been when we moved him in and got a good young keeper in to back up Hugo.
