Tottenhams problem is that they're buying alot of fancy players with no grit. They need some hardworking tacklers in the midfield to compliment Dos Santos, Modric and maybe Arshavin.
They need a Hargreaves, Essien or Mascherano type to compliment them or otherwise they'll continue to get tackled off the park.
You can't compete in the Premier League on a consistent basis if you're not prepared to fight hard for every ball.
dunno about grit Tommy, maybe lacking in EPL experience
apart from Bentley, the other newbies haven't played ELP and I didn't expect they would gel from the start
I also didnt' expect we'd get rolled by Sunderland
its gonna get worse, because we expect a swag of new players in the next few days, namely Pav and his Russian mate, Veloso and Huntelaar to replace the Berk
may or may not happen, but pretty strong rumours, about 80mills worth
Yeah right Twiz, your sources could tell me it's Wednesday and I still would have to double check.
Nah, its grit. You dont have anyone in your midfield to do the dirty work and win the ball, break up the oppositions attack etc. Arsenal didnt have anyone doing that on the weekend and got rolled by fulham.
yeah, its Wednesday
check your team list next Tuesday, you'll be down a player
yeah, I saw that as well this morning
Kompany is definitely the better defender of the two and the one we would have preferred
I think Corluka was very keen to play with Modric, it has been well documented that they are good mates and wanted to play together
Twizzle said:I think Corluka was very keen to play with Modric, it has been well documented that they are good mates and wanted to play together
Corluka will pretty much be sealed up. Especially is Modric has any say, he'll help Modric settle.
Your sources are feeding info to you really late. Page 65, I already had it all down...
The Sun 2-0 Twiz's anonymous sources
that's what Modric's job is, he seems to be slowly warming up to the task
there seems to be some doubt from THFC as to the ability of Huntelaar to step up from the Dutch league to EPL atm, his stats ar good against crappy teams
apparently we are looking at 3 strikers and he is obvioulsy one of them but not clear who our main target is atm
watch this space
Trusty Sun reckons Toots interested in Falcao?
'Watch this space?'
Your source will give you the news in about a week...
Shame he's still lining up for City this week."Corluka is going to Spurs"
Not if you insist on paying unders. Deal's off."Arshavin is signing for Spurs"
Please, a warm welcome to Tottenham's latest signing, Roman Pavlyuchenko!"Pavlyuchenko is not a target"
1-1 at the bridge great result
