All signs are pointing to Andy Carroll as Spurs #1 target in the transfer window. Various reports have said Harry is willing to bid up to 15 million pounds in addition to a combination of Bentley, Keane, and Crouch for him.

^ If it happens, I say 50/50 that Newcastle is relegated.
I just hope Arsenal can pick up a solid keeper next month... 12/20/2010 2:34:20 PM |

wow berbs has scored and hit the post and now anderson smacks the crossbar. should be 3 or 4-0 right now. sunderland are lucky so far
berbatov is looking like absolute class out there right now

Man U is killing them through the midfield in the first half. It's not even funny how far apart the talent through that area is between the two teams.
I'm hoping Spurs come out like gangbusters today and stick it to an Villa team missing a few starters. This is the kind of match where they HAVE to get 3 if they want to keep pace with the top the table. 12/26/2010 11:02:06 AM |

you right. now i think i want arsenal and chelsea to draw 0-0 tomorrow
who knows what the scoreline wouldve been today had berbatovs and andersons shots that hit woodwork early on wouldve gone in instead. oh well, comfortable 2-0 win is fine by me

that wasn't even close to a straight red
HE WAS WATCHING THE BALL THE ENTIRE TIME
FA should discipline this ref for fucking misconduct. That is one of the worst decisions I've ever seen.

I agree it's a bad decision but you have to be careful with that

Here's the thing about that challenge though. The ref has to 100% CERTAIN that Defoe had malicious intent to go straight red in that situation. There is absolutely no way the ref could say that. You couldn't even tell in the replay. It was a reckless challenge and he deserved to be booked without a doubt but gtfoh with that straight red bullshit.
I heard the announcer say after that incident that this ref has given the most red cards and the most penalties in the EPL this season. I'm not surprised.
Despite the bullshit, a clean sheet still wins it. 12/26/2010 1:23:34 PM |
aimorris All American 15213 Posts user info edit post |
you right, it's a bad decision. It's just not an unexpected one, considering the type of foul and Martin Aktinson involved with making it
Spurs looked good to end the half 12/26/2010 1:30:02 PM |
JTMONEYNCSU All American 24529 Posts user info edit post |
gareth bale just flew down the field on that counter.
not 100% sure why you would show bales left...hes never gonna cross on his right and even then youd have a better chance at taking on his right footed cross rather than letting him cut inside on his left

Apparently that Lichaj right back is American? He had a good game stopping Gareth Bale for the most part and he's only 22. Looks like right back might be solid for USA after Cherundolo retires. 12/26/2010 2:26:36 PM |

What? How did Villa deserve to win this game? A ten man Spurs squad put on a passing clinic and played tough defense for 60 minutes after the ridiculous red card. On top of that, Villa conceded on a world class counter by VDV and Bale.
I don't see any aspect of this match where Spurs got outplayed so I'm having a hard time understanding where you are coming from. Please clarify for me.12/26/2010 10:07:36 PM |
