Great old line from Yes Minister when Jim Hacker says,‘ One minute you’re out out of your office, the next you’re out of office.’
Arry is an old cove and will be secretly smiling at how his fortunes against Arsenal went from being furiously despised at half time to being the Second Coming just forty five minutes later.
Whatever took place in the Arsenal away dressing room at half time, the latent talent in just about every player was unlocked and our lot came out and did ’em.
I haven’t watched Arsenal for a while and I have to say that I can fully understand now how they dominate the wrong end of the Fair Play League. The second goal was due to am imbecilic handball. They need to wise up and fast.
Look, I’m no more obsessed with these things than you, but it’s bad form to espouse all this ‘technically gifted’ rubbish if by the same token you are indulging in cheap fouls and play acting like that mong spaz cad Nasri.
Anyway, feck ’em. As they head to the Batmobile, we’re off to the ratings!
Gomes 7 Redeemed himself as (did many) in the second half.
A&E 5 Like weather. Dull with wet patches.
Gallarse 9 He was on a mission. Mission accomplished.
Raging Kaboul 7 Intelligent goals from a much improving chap. Well done, mate.
Begbie 4.5 I’d like to flog him. And then, sell ‘im. In that order.
Azza Blud 5.5 Back to square one again. Meh.
Jenarse 7 Another focused performance. More please.
Modders 6.75 Blossomed a little as our shape changed.
Bale, Bale, Bale 7.35 Great players change matches and define seasons.
VDV 7.36 Oozed class once the system/shaped changed.
Crazypavinchenko 6 Didn’t get into it really. But terribly nice hair.
Defoe 6.28 A one man feel good factor. Welcome home son.
3MP 6.29 Disrupted a wonky back four.
The Sarge 6.27 A credit in the time that he had.
I keep checking my phone for updates. But they still haven’t equalized!
unfair on the full backs,its a tough job in the tottenham team,i thought a&e did well
i don’t understand why redknapp throws lennon in either he should bring him on,he is not fit enough but i can’t argue with old harry after that win
I have to agree with H on Hutton, I thought he was very poor but he’s looked tidy in recent weeks. Not sure about him & lennon working the same flank with great effect – lennon doesn’t like full backs overlapping as seen in the world cup with Johnson.
yeah i admit hutton looked pissed at times but like i said the full backs have the toughest job and the goons were pretty good,i guess the jury is out on hutton and bae but this back 4 has played a few games together now,maybe we should just stick with them and see what they are made of
Having to go to hospital in morning due to enormous grin on my face, how the fuck can beating those fuckwits give us so much happiness and give them so much pain & misery. Lets hope it’s the 1st win of many to come, we’re getting a proper Tottenham team in the making here.
Your scores on the doors are a bit mean H,
VDV was worth at least 9.5/10 – three assists and a goal in the NLD
Kaboul was worth a 9/10 just for the goal
BAE was also worth at least a 7/10.
Managed to track down a couple of season ticket holding gooners I know, priceless – no excuses, just shell shocked and almost suicidal. I think they’re suffering from post traumatic stress disorder. Hopefully they will be suffering for a long time :devil:
Agreed. Kaboul was almost motm and BAE is just fine by me.
Asked this on the previous blog, when’s the last time we done the goon league double?
i don’t know by the way,but it must be a while someone will have to get in the stat books
Sorry to be thick but who is meant by Begbie & A&E—-
I assume the latter is Assou Ekotto but why begbie and why the low marks neither was that bad although AE can be brilliant he can be awful- partly to blame for the first goal – Hutton maybe not the worlds best but always gives his all!!!
scottish nutter = begbie
thanks!!
Named after Begbie from Trainspotting, who was another angry and violent scot – this after Hutton fu(ked up his old man in a bar fight.
thanks!
The internet is a great source of information. You should try it. :-) Sorry for that but taking the Michael comes naturally to me.
