Some Credible Thoughts On Another Fine Mess

So Manchester United grind out three points. We’re incapable of grinding coffee beans.

West Brom? Sorry to be awfully disrespectful, but this is the side that thought they’d won the lottery when landing Uncle Woy as their supremo.

Believe it or not I stand by Redschnapps. Those amongst you who revel in stats can investigate but he’s worked miracles. He has his limitations but who amongst us doesn’t? As I recall Stephen Fry’s ‘flawed genius’ speech on Cooky.My beef is with the players.

I don’t see much merit in ripping into anyone specifically. But the Tottenham Malaise is still there, still blighting any chances of genuinely advancing as a team, as a club. Gomes is apparently a clown and some wouldn’t send him for a paper.

Gomes is a decent goalkeeper. But I tell you this; you put Van der Sar in a Spurs shirt and watch him haemorrhage goals. There isn’t a keeper in the world that performs well in front of a conveyor belt of defenders. There isn’t a keeper in the world who’s confidence and self belief are impervious to foul ups. It’s a vicious circle and the sooner King & Woodgate are suitably replaced the better.

Our midfield has some absolute quality in it’s number. But Modders is a gem, Rafa a gift, but Bale needs to adapt his game. He’s become a household name and ought not be surprised that people are developing a strategy to nullify him.

Sandro must be encouraged to stamp his mark on proceedings. We’ve been whining on for a dog’s age about a ‘Roy Keane’ type. Pssst wanna know a secret? We’ve got one and his name is Sandro.

Up front I’m swimming against the tide with many of you perhaps. I wouldn’t flog Defoe and 3MP, I’d pop them into one of those charity bags that come through the door and leave them on the curb outside The Lane. Harsh? Neither have scored remotely enough goals. Forget Pete’s one that got us in the Champions League, he took that back when he demanded a red card against Real.

Drawing indoors to West Brom simply isn’t on. If Chelsea don’t wallop West Ham there will be tears before bedtime in the Hotspur caravanette tonight.

Here’s some clips:

    Nearly all bottom half sides come to WHL for a point but they also do this at Chelsea, Arsenal, Utd, Liverpool so we shouldnt be surprised when they play 451 but what we have to do is break this down. It was a shame BAE went off injured but it did show that playing Bale at LB gives a different option, he almost had the freedom of that left hand side for the whole of the first half and put some great balls in the box, after being walloped 3 or 4 times in the first 5 mins by 2 or more defenders.
    Harry then check mated himself in the second half by bringing lennon on in the second half and instead of giving width on both sides which you need to do, honest, against teams that defend like this he sits on the left and means bale couldnt get forward into any space!
    VDV is not a RM player our strength with him is letting him float in the final 3rd like Fabregas so he has to play up there with either Pav or Crouch hats the best we have right now so lets just stick with it.
    Modric can play LM with Bale behind him and thats where he really made his name for us leave Sandro and Thudd in the middle to forge a partnership.
    Kaboul was asked the impossible he is only just back from injury but asked to get up and down which he tried but I think too big an ask.
    Now we have Liverpool right behind us and they have an easier run in than us and they want it, they have gelled behind King Kenny and I am not sure we are as gelled or singleminded but live in hope COYS!
    BAE get well soon.

    I’d just like to say, that if Billy G, had ducked in th first half the ball would’ve gone in; instead he headed over like he was defending the goal. Twat!

    We have won only one of our last ten games.

    He can twitch and smile and flirt with the press as much as he wants, I want him out!

    11-1 on corner kicks. We never looked dangerous on a single one, never won the 2nd ball. Harry must have one person on his staff to teach them one or two tricky plays. We are so predictable, it’s painful to watch. When we win a corner, it’s as good as a cleared ball to the half way line. :pinch:

    • hertspur says:

      free kicks too with so many so called specialists on target and not hitting the wall would be a change!

    I laught… Harry out… And get who in?

    Talk some sense HR is the best person to run the club… We dont have the squad for 4th tbh
