Continuation of: Tottenham Hotspur fans on the forum? (Part 11)
this is why I didn't (and still don't) understand the argument that 4-4-2 best suits the players we have. it really doesn't, aside from the two or three extremely one-dimensional players in the squad. it most certainly doesn't suit the best ones, that's for sure.

Oh, and I won part 11
For those who only don't normally follow the progress of our younger teams, our U19/18s are currently in Vietnam playing a tournament. They beat the Japan U19 national side 2-1 in their first game but lost a close match against Roma 1-2 in their second game. Not bad considering most of our lads are 16/17 years old.
just noticed the city/spammers game as well. shame. *cough*
I feel it's abit of a waste tbh
nothing against the guy, and I wish him all the best when he leaves, but he's no great loss, and very easily replaceable.
doesn't every other football fan say that about players we sign ?
i'm sure i heard it said about Lloris at one point ..
To be fair pee, why not just say nothing more than the above since we all know it's how you really feel about him ?
either way, i will be sad to see him go. he's been one of the more prolific strikers we've had in the past couple of years. i hope we'll at least get him back on loan for the remainder of the season as a back-up anyway.
I wish him well, too.
Lloris moving here wasn't really a step down, and if he were to move again it sure as hell wouldn't be to a lesser club. Defoe moving to Toronto is a HUGE step down, as I always suspected it would be if and when he left. this tells me he wasn't really good enough to be starting for us as he has tended to do over the last season and a half, and as such I don't feel he'll be any great loss. that's my opinion though, and I was under the impression those were still allowed in here
You are, of course, fully entitled to your opinion. I just felt it was a tad disingenuous to say you had nothing against the guy when you've made no secret of your disdain for him over the years. which is, of course, absolutely fine.
but then to be fair, we'll likely never know if he actually did receive any other offers. But then i suspect most players his age would jump at the chance to trouser £90k a week for the last few years of their career - I doubt he'd have gotten anywhere close to that if he'd stayed put. He might have gotten that if he'd re-joined Harry at QPR, but i'd be surprised.
Heh, that's my fault. I wasn't having a dig at Pee, although it clearly looks like i am, so i'll withdraw, put my handbag back in the drawer, apologise and go to bed since it's bloody 4:56am
Glad they're taking action, some of those tweets were disgstuing. It's just a shame that they weren't as fussed on the day when abuse was reported to them.
My brother was talking to a friend of his who is an Arsenal fan, and told him about the abuse we received, and he said he'd never heard abuse like that until the whole Y-word debate was raised by Baddiel, Herbert and the like. I'll note how they have nothing to say on the matter when there is actual anti-semitic abuse as that doesn't fit their agenda.
Yes, did Herbert say anything about Anelka? There was a Shane Long rumour (don't shoot the messenger!). But I guess we have Adebayor, Soldado and Kane.
At 31 years old nearing the latter stages of his career, I can see why going to the MLS to potentially earn £30,000 a week more than his spurs salary might be tempting lol he wouldn't get that from anywhere else in the EPL, if anything he'd probably get reduced wages elsewhere in the EPL
