On Defoe:
“Defoe has an injury again. He’s had a problem with his ankle before and it didn’t feel too good,”
“We’re trying to finish in the top four and it’s so close. But we’ve got so many players injured, people forget. We’ve got Tom Huddlestone, Younes Kaboul, Ledley King, Woodgate, Bale, Van der Vaart. If you could pick a team of injured players it would be a fantastic team.”
“We had a terrible day at Blackpool, which was a massive setback for us,” he said. “We had been playing so well and everything just went wrong on the day. But we have to come back from that now.”
On Begbie:
” I never said a word to him after the Fulham game. Alan had a groin strain, but he’s fit now. I changed it after Fulham; I brought Corluka back in and we went and won four games on the spin, went to Milan and won. But that’s football: now Charlie is injured, so Alan’s got a chance to get back in the team.”

There, now everbody knows the truth! Defoe out, Hutton in, the team nearly picks itself. Harrys fault again. The libya situation Harrys fault. No salt on me chips, Harrys fault. Who can you turn to? :silly:
Where are all the new friends we made on the blog re L’Arse ? Missing them already.
Re HR comments re Hutton, tend to take everything he says with an industrial size measure of salt but if we have a proper RB avaialable for the next few games so much the better.
Milan just round the corner and we have to get past them. Anyone got some miracle medication ?
.
Defoe to be firing blanks again soon!
THFC: Jermain Defoe will return to training on the squad’s return home this week after undergoing x-rays on his foot following his participation in today’s (Monday, February 28) session.
The x-rays were clear and the striker is expected to rest tomorrow as a precaution to allow any possible soft tissue irritation to settle.
who dun him ,the last time he got dun in training it was bent, was it pav this time?
It was Mozart, with a bit of Bach… It was Mach wot did it.
Brahms
and lizt
Balls don’t believe a word of it Defoe has been shit and prob needs some time out the spotlight give that tube Pav a chance with 3MP and Hutton is for the off I reckon HR has had to bite the bullet and ask him to fill in we will never know. Fulham was rough all right but let’s not lose perspective of the bigger prize on offer Begbie has been good this year and has made just as many mistakes as Billy G or Les not to mention Gomes! Let’s give the boy a chance and see what happens it couldn’t get much worse than Blackpool!!!
Agreed re Hutton, reckon he will go in the Summer but we need him now.
Moving Gallas to RB at Blackpool weakened the centre of our defence.
