Morning my dears. Nothing shy of a sensational evening. I can hardly express how happy it makes me watching us play like that.
Upstairs for thinking, downstairs for dancing. Our mindset was spot on. Our shape and concentration was immense. we kept possession and mopped up the losses of the same. We moved the ball like Champions. This was one one of those rare, rare games that will bench-mark Spurs performances for a generation
The Milanese rain turned out to be holy water absolving Gomes of all previous sins. He made two extraordinary saves and looked every bit a world class goalie.
Make no mistake this composed Tottenham side beat a formidable European giant in their own back yard and in manner that you would have barely known we were the away side. Look, even naffin’ Ray Wilkins was cooing.
Here’s some player ratings.
Gomes – 9.13 – A pair of breathtaking saves.
Charlie – 8 – Flamini wants arresting for that tackle.
Gallas – 8.96 – Champions League class.
Woody – 8 – Sent a bit of shiver down the spine to see him again.
Sir Les – 9 – No hoofs, no wild headers – looked confident.
A&E – 7.99 – Sound as a pound, thank the Lord.
Azza Blud – 9. 24– The wing heeled winger worked very hard.
Sandra – 9.25 – His best game in the shirt yet – a mature, elegant game.
Sarge – 9.24 – Robust and unrelenting.
Peanut – 8.99 – His best game in the shirt yet n’all.
Modders – 8 – Can’t believe his stitches held.
Krankie – 8 – Cool calm and Croation. Some bench we have, eh?
VdV – 9.27 – I’m scared how we’d be without him – he was pivotal.
3MP – 9.26 – When he actually gets to play football, he’s a devil.
Morning all. And what a wonderful morning it is too!
Thought every last one of them were special last night but thought Sandro was key. Kind of gives you a taste of what could come from him when he gets used to the pace of the English game. Unfair to single anyone out thought.
Is this pride I am feeling?
Oh, and special mention for the commentary team, especially ‘butch’ wilkins. Was half expecting a fat, bald, orange man to jump out and give someone a slap at any moment. He must’ve sent his hairy brother along instead.
Souness too was very positive and love him calling Gattuso a little dog. His analysis before the game was spot on and more optimistic than I was daring to be at the time. Some of those old timers know a thing or two about football :)
How good was it to see Woody on the touchline waiting to come on. He slotted in like he had never been away and god bless his back side for deflecting that shot too. A magnificent footballer – welcome back Woody.
What a result, i haven’t felt that good since beating chelsea at wemberlee… …
after collecting my winnings from the “TAB” this afternoon, i went and put money on Barcelona keeping a clean sheet.. .. at a “triffic” rate of $2.90.
