What the actual fuck had today got to do with him? You're clearly obsessed.
Eh? :confused:

I don't know how you go that from my post. But as Adebayor hasn't been frozen out and Poch has welcomed in back in to squad I'd expect him to make an appearance at some point. I want all players for tottenham to do well it's really a win win.

I don't have power to ban him, think of it as a team mate trying to prevent another team mate getting sent off.
TLG is a good sort, he just wears his heart on his sleeve.

As do we all sometimes.

Ok, I'll condense my post to

Don't want to throw any negatives in, but lamella really needs to show something of this so called 30 million dazzling talent. He's doing a job on the right but he is so far off a superstar

So what should we do? Produce/buy average players that bigger clubs don't want to buy?

No. I said in the exact same post we are doing the right thing.

Churning out young talent like an Ajax.

To stop Madrid or whoever cherry picking in 2 years time will only happen if we inject more investment into the club to pay higher wages and/or start winning things

For me, the funniest thing was the way their supporters were going on, before the game, about how the Whinger had hit upon a new system that wouldn't leave them so open - I was like What, you mean keep eleven behind the ball and hope to nick a one nil? That's the way ArseAnal have always played since before you hired the Whinger! LoL

I felt, and I know someone else said this above, that even at half-time if we had continued playing like that but not got the goals I wouldn't have been too disappointed, because it is early days for this group of players and it was overall pretty impressive, even without finding the net.

Was told earlier that our oldest player on the pitch today was Lloris at 28. Oh how bright the future once these kids have a season or two to gel!!

TBH, this has been what has been cooking beneath the service sicne Levy dismissed GHodd and took a moratorium to examine best practices over the Continent before hiring Frank Arnesen. There have been hold-ups (Arnesen jumping ship to the Chavs, for instance), and the time delay between that appointment and now could easily make folk lose sight of what was going on (if they were ever aware).

As I said before the season started, and after, you can't judge this group of players against the team Mr Redknapp took to the San Siro. You either have to let them develop for a couple of years to do that, or judge them against the talented but lopsided and demoralised side that Mr Redknapp inherited from Wandery Ramos.

Great win today, still can't come down. Oh, and Arsenal half-time/Spurs full-time @25-1 LoL

Less spent on transfer fees = more % for wages, plus new stadium's increased revenues (eventually). If we produce enough genuine talent they might not want to leave. Even if the occasional one is cherry-picked, and that will become something that get's harder and hared and feasible for less and less clubs to do, we will just have more money to invest int the acquisition and development of young players.

How's the whole Kane/boxer shorts thang going, for you. Have you accepted the error of your ways, yet, or do you require further proof? Maybe, if you cash-out yet, we can offer you a BetFair scenario - cash out and you need only eat the front half of yer boxers - not that I'm implying the back half is shitty - there was only one shitty Arse today, innit :)

Where Bentaleb was calmness personified on the ball, Mason was aggressive on it. Those two schooled Arsenal's midfield and in the past, even when we've beaten them, they have dominated midfield. This time was different and those two were unbelievable.

With all this quality youth we should take advantage of it and get Gerry Francis in.

That's definitely what we should do.
