Completely the fault of Jermaine Jenas. He has been by far the worst player on the pitch today.http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/spurs-0-1-sunderland.html Spurs 0-0 Sunderland - Half-time Update- August 23, 2008 All I can say is Sunderland have been the better side. They've had the best chance; a Malbranque shot off the post from around 20 yards that looked to have beat Gomes. We've looked like a shade of the side that thrashed Roma. A lot of us here believe that the Berbatov saga is taking a toll on the players. The entire side have lacked any cohesion and spirit. Juande will have his work cut out during his half-time team talk. A lot needs to be put right if we are to win this game. Right then, I'm...http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/spurs-0-0-sunderland-half-time-update.html Spurs vs. Sunderland - UPDATE- August 23, 2008 Chris Rowning Updates us from White Hart LaneThe Lane is buzzing at the moment! Unfortunately, it looks as though both teams are waiting for the other to settle. We're not playing like the home side, but I am sure that will all change. As most of you know, Berbatov has been ordered to stay home as he's not in the right frame of mind. The talk in and around me here in the Paxton end is that we are close to bringing in Milito on a season loan. PS. Modric has looked class, but we desperately lack..http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/spurs-vs-sunderland-update.html A Step Too Far- August 21, 2008 Article Submitted by Michael NewleyThe Sun newspaper was sent pictures of our striker, Dimitar Berbatov, signing a Manchester United shirt.That for me, is the last straw! There is no excusing this blatant insulting behaviour. Even if the guy had told Dimi that he didn't have anything else for Berbatov to sign and that all he had was a United shirt, OUR player should have declined in signing another clubs' shirt, no matter what the circumstances surrounding that moment were.I will be in The...http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/step-too-far.html Forget Arshavin! Ask the Wizard for a Heart!- August 20, 2008 Article Submitted by Claire Walsh-ThompsonSince the defeat against Boro last Saturday, I, like many other Spurs fans, have been scouring the net for views and reviews of the game. Living in New Zealand means that getting to actually go to White Hart Lane can prove fairly challenging. Therefore, I follow my team in the only way I can; by using the net to read reviews and other fans comments.I am totally against reading what so-called ITK's (In The Know; meaning someone who reckons heshe knows...http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/forget-arshavin-ask-wizard-for-heart.html COYS!!!- August 17, 2008 Article by Chris RowningI, along with a numerous amount of away Spurs fans watched the debacle at the Riverside. "What's Ramos doing" shouted a gentleman called Tom who sat behind me. "I can't believe that we're playing this rubbish", screamed another. To be honest, yesterdays performance was anything but what any of us had come to expect. Pre-season always takes our hopes to levels that are just not comparable with Premier League standards. I read reports and also witnessed our captain, Ledley.http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/coys.html Middlesbrough 2 - 1 Spurs: Match Analysis- August 16, 2008 Tottenham Hotspur started off the 1st half fairly well, keeping possession and interchanging play.Boro soon saw the various flaws that were apparent to all in the Riverside.Even with Bentley & Lennon on the wings, both players seemed to be pulling into the centre, leaving large areas of play for Boro to exploit. And exploit it they did.The home side commanded large parts of the 1st half.Tottenham came out stronger in the second half but Boro still stuck to their game plan and kept us at...http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/middlesbrough-2-0-spurs.html Boro 2 - 0 Spurs- August 16, 2008 Ex-Spur, Mido, stuck out a leg from a driving shot and scored. A lot of fans around me are leaving. Oh dear.http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/boro-2-0-spurs.html Boro 1 - 0 Spurs- August 16, 2008 Boro scored after Alves shot came off the bar. David Wheater got on the end of the shot to slot home. Bale & Berbatov have come on for Lennon & Giovani. We have been playing better this half.http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/boro-1-0-spurs.html Boro 0 - 0 Spurs: Half-time update- August 16, 2008 Even though we started off looking like the better side, this Boro team have looked resolute and have got back into the game; scoring a goal that was disallowed. The goal scored by Boro seemed okay, but the ref gave a free-kick against Boro. We seem to be lacking width. Even though Bentley & Lennon are playing, they both seem to be centering their play and not playing on the wings. Our shape has looked empty. Juande needs to make changes or we could lose this game.http://tottenhamhotspur.blogspot.com/2008/08/boro-0-0-spurs-half-time-update.html |
