    Fernerbahce make loan offer for Sissoko

    I have rarely seen a premier league player with less ability to control the ball ..... so why do I have a soft spot for the fella....?

    Kane relieved to break August goal duck

    I would like to mention I was really pleased with how Lamela played when he came on. He showed a huge hunger and really impressed me. With Lamela, Lucas Moura, Alli, Eriksen, Son and Kane all capable of winning a game, we should be in for another excellent season.

    Dier warns top-four rivals: Spurs will try & shut you up even without new signings

    Why is it "while the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United "? Don't they just mean Manchester City, Liverpool, Arsenal, Chelsea and Manchester United?

    Urgent stadium update

    Let's hope the problem can be easily fixed and the stadium opened as soon as possible. I bet it was a fun meeting when Mace told Daniel Levy. I imagine he will be pushing them to reduce their fees by an 'unreasonable' amount in compensation.

    Eriksen vs Modric: two little wizards duelling in the sun

    Both terrific players. However, I don't remember Modric being any better than Eriksen defensively. Where I do think Modric is better is his control of the football in tight spaces and how difficult it was to get it off him. Modric was superb at that and then using it. On the other side, I...

    Attendance record offers Spurs good omens

    We have already played the Chavs at home. Unlikely as stadium's are rarely filled to capacity, but may Man Utd or Arsenal as you mentioned....

    Huddersfield 0-4 Spurs : BBC match report

    I thought Winks had a very good game again. Very tidy and always on the move and making himself available. I would not say he dominated the midfield but his pass and move game certainly complimented the excellent Dier, Right now I would still have both Dembele and Wanyama slightly ahead of...

    Clive Allen: Harry Kane can break the Premier League goal record

    This is a bit like that 'Kane is better than Bale' article a few days again. He is having a good season and progressing nicely, but no more than that. I obviously wish him well and hope it continues but a big hurdle for Kane will be his second season in the top flight, when managers have...

    Vertonghen: Ben Davies can displace Danny Rose from Spurs line-up

    Surely the number one criteria for a left back is that he is able to defend. Number two is attacking. Rose is poor at defending and average in attack... so to me, not good enough. I would give the spot to Davies for a decent run of games to see if he can cut it. If not, the search goes on as...

    DeAndre Yedlin will be available from January after his EU passport arrives

    We were poor yesterday. Even our good players are struggling for form. We need Walker back but Rose needs replacing too. He is just not a defender and we have Ben Davies waiting to come in. I don't wish to just blame the full backs though. Many of the players are just no that good, or at...

    Aston Villa 1 - 2 Spurs : BBC Match Report

    I thought we were very average. When I look through the team and compare it to what we had just a a few seasons ago I suppose I should not be surprised. We have average players all over the pitch and on the bench. None of Naughton, Kaboul, Capoue, Rose, Chadli or Soldado would have had any...

    Spurs 5 - 1 Asteras Tripolis : BBC Match Report

    Incredible goal from Lamela, but Kane was the star for me. Ignoring his stint between the sticks, he is just getting better and better and I really hope that is reflected in more starts.

    Nacer Chadli relishing free role for Mauricio Pochettino’s Spurs

    Chadli certainly had a good game on Sunday and took his goals well. He clearly suits the flexible approach as he was pretty ineffectual in the more rigid structure we employed last season. However, Lennon and Townsend have their qualities too and I would also like to see them have the...

    Spurs 4 - 0 QPR - Mauricio's verdict

    A tremendous display from the team. Apart from the attack, in which Lamela and Eriksen were superb, I really enjoyed the control Capoue and Bentaleb enjoyed in midfield. In fact, Bentaleb was so good that when he was replaced by Dembele there was a noticeable drop in control in that area. I...
