Does This Remind You Of Anyone?

Good evening.

I have to confess that I didn’t go hunting this clip out on the basis that my hunger, my desire for International football no matter who is playing starts off poorly and usually fizzles out not long after. Ray Wilkins was on the television some time back and called it right. The Champions League has replaced International football in so many ways it’s difficult to know where to begin.

ODM has a plan to bin the conventional national sides of these sceptered isles and replace them with a Team GB. I’m not entirely sure if he’s serious but it might be a plan worth some consideration. I’m not sure what the answer is. Maybe we just chuck John Terry down a well and forget which one.

But the reason I dragged you here was to have a butchers at the clip above. The stance prior to moving, the almost tippy toe approach and the way his shoe goes through the ball. Yeah., very similar to that unhappy bloke at Real Madrid.

Now since Villas-Boas has arrived we’ve seen a less dangerous Bale. In the whole three games so far he hasn’t wreaked the havoc that we used to love to watch on the wing. Can the combination of Dembélé and Dempsey somehow galvanise him again?Mmmn. What is for sure is he’s been working on something quite sexy there and it works.

      I went down there tonight; weren’t too bad in parts. Like the first team, no cutting edge. The longer the game wnet on the more comfortable Barca got.

      For some reason, there was a load of Tottenham fans going mad in the West lower up by the Paxton end. First time in yonks I’ve heard that much support in that side.

      There must have been about 10,000 there: the whole of the West stand and at least the bottom tier of the Park Lane. One or two boos believe it or not.

        The group of fans is a free to join group called 1882 I think they are allowed to block book the section to like minded positive fans who like to sing and back the spurs how about that…

          It’s a good idea. If the NDP ever gets built, I hope there’s a way for people who want to make a lot of noise to be able to sit together.

          It made what are usually rather dull and quiet affairs feel like the real thing.

      I was a bit disappointed with Coulibaly,thought he would have progressed more,he seems to have a bad first touch with his back to goal,he must be getting lessons from Ade.
      McEvoy,Pritchard and McQueen all look quite useful,on the whole the best thing about the Evening was the crowds support.
