Morning one and all.
The good ship Tottingham sailed into the the quarter finals of the Champions League last night. It wasn’t how many of us thought it would be. AC where bound to come out fighting and they certainly adopted a different strategy to the one that saw them get beat at the San Siro. But the real difference was how Spurs stood their ground.
The unsophisticated viewer might say that a ‘bus’ was parked. But without being to biased I felt that what was implemented by Arry and the boys was a tad classier. Parking the bus is everyone and the tea lady blocking play, your centre forward as a centre back. Hello Wolves fans.
Spurs actually held a line and held a shape that wasn’t breached too often despite the Italians chucking their fancy top of the range kitchen sink at us. It was a credit to Spurs that they had the wit and the wisdom to adapt and survive.
It wasn’t a thing of beauty, but then it’s difficult to imagine that 3MP in the nip is either – but Abbey Clancey’s let him get off with her so much experts say that she will sire a baby giraffe by him later this year.
Gomes 6.87 Apparently he’s a big Shaking Stevens fan.
Charlie 5,43 Not at his best but still worth 2.5 Begbies.
Gallas 8.23 ‘Too old’ – Arsene Wenger. ‘Super duper’ – Harry Hotspur.
Les Dawson 6.38 Held the line well enough.
A&E 5.99 Under pressure he cracked.
Azza Blud 6.92 We played down the middle a lot. He was okay.
Sandro 9 MOTM A revelation. Lots more, please.
Modders 6.93 He was swamped. Not an excuse, a fact.
Peanut 5 Arry, play Krankie, old son. Please.
VDV 6.45 I’m terrified he’s in an ‘injury cycle’. I hope I’m wrong.
3MP 7 The referee was a wonker. He couldn’t buy a fair call.
Bale, Pav & Jen*s all too little time to warrant a score…
Dear Mr Wenger
Thank you very much for Willam Gallas.
We think Billy is great and your central defenders are now pants which makes it even better.
Regards
Tottenham
yeah i’d rather go to germany,i think but prefer bayern for the continuation of knocking out european royalty
Schalke
Bayern
Madrid
Shakhtar
Barca
Chelsea
United
In that order for me from the teams likely to make the quarters. Though marseille would be high up that list if they beat united.
Whomsoever we are drawn with, do we get to play away first? Or does it depend on how we come out of the hat?
It all depends on how they are drawn from now on, the draw for both quarters and semis are made at the same time, so you know who you could face.
CL result fantastic for everyone, we stopped some of the best attackers in europe, and this after beating them in their own back yard. There seems to be a bit of worry that we won’t qualify for the CL again next season. I am sure you could just copy and paste all the comments from the same time last year when we had to play Chavski, Citeh and Ar5ena1 and beat all three. Lets not fear anyone and see how the season develops. We are in with a shout still and certainly have the squad. Don’t forget all the injuries that are now coming good! Its like 2 or 3 new signings and they are match winners. COYS!
