    Dalglish Gone

    Guys, I'm hearing from Liverpool ITK that Kenny has been sacked. Has anyone else heard anything similar? I personally think that he's got to go - bring in Martinez, Rodgers, Lambert, hell - even Rafa!

    Two excellent articles on Harry and tactics

    I understand that there is already a thread on Harry's tactical acumen but I think these two articles by the Guardian bloggist, Jonathan Wilson, give a much more measured and balanced start to a discussion. The first article, here was written a month or so after we battered Inter at home. The...

    Which former Spurs player would you bring back?

    As it says on the tin: which former Spurs player would you bring back to improve our starting line-up? As a fan born in 1987, I would go for Klinsmann for his goals or perhaps Berbatov for his hold-up play (see performance vs. Bolton Feb 2007) and goals. Then again, if it's quality hold-up...

    Fan Power - Flirting with Fernando

    We all know that the best way to woo a girl is to write her poetry and sing it to her sweetly outside her window... Well, footballers are much the same. Let us pen bards in honour of Fernando Llorente, sing them with the gusto of boozed-up squaddies and bring him to Spurs. Let me get you...

    Who can step up to topple Liverpool?

    Below (and linked) is a fair assessment of the race for the top 4 from the BBC's Jonathan Pearce. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/8341049.stm Premier League vultures should be circling above the Stade Gerland in Lyon where Liverpool try to salvage their season on Wednesday. It may...

    Would you be sad to see Taarabt go?

    http://www.setanta.com/uk/Articles/Football/2009/06/22/PremLiga-Malaga-on-Taarabt/gnid-57877/ Because I for one would be. It would be a crying shame to see a player with all the raw talent leave our club after very little development. After Harry's words of praise for him midway through last...

    Player Ratings vs. Villa

    Harry - 8.5 - Put Zokora in at right back after he had a good game against Middlesborough but had the balls to make the change and Corluka did him proud. Has got the individual members of the team to understand their responsibilities, most notably Modric who today was far from stand-out but...

    Player Watcher - Luka 'The Midget' Modric

    Coming a little later than expected is his week’s Player-Watcher thread. As per last week, we’re looking for a little more analytical discussion based on today’s performance. The aim is to focus on this player a little more than the others, watching him off the ball as well as on it. Today's...

    Favourite non-Spurs PL players

    Clue's in the title. Who are your favourite non-spurs Premier League players? I am a huge fan of Carlos Tevez for the dedication and work-rate that I would love to see exhibited in Lillywhite colours, that's not to mention his brilliant skill on the ball. Jimmy Bullard for being a straight-up...

    Player Watcher - Jermaine 'JJ' Jenas

    Chaps and Chapettes, I was thinking that we could do a sort of 'book club' but football-related: every match we pick a player to watch closely (both on and off the ball) and then compare thoughts afterwards? I did this last match for Jenas and it definitely gave me a sharper view as to what his...

    Silver Lining...?

    Well someone bloody had to do it! So here goes - who thinks that defeat today will actually benefit Tottenham Hotspur and if so, in what ways? I believe that this may not be all that bad: In the 2005-6 season we played the minimum number of games possible due to our early exits in both FA...

    MOTM vs Hull?

    Does what it says on the tin. I believe it is between BAE, Palacios and Lennon with BAE taking it - defensively probably our best player and showed a bit going forward to boot.

    Those deplorable managers..?!

    So Juande Ramos guides Real Madrid to a 6-1 win over Real Betis yesterday, a feat bettered by a certain Martin Jol whose side scuttle up to the top of the Bundesliga after a fantastic away win against Leverkusen. Firstly, congratulations to both :clap:. Secondly, where did it all go wrong...

    A bit of good news

    It appears that Troy Archibald-Henville has continued his good form and has been signed on loan by Exeter. Have high hopes for the lad - hoping he'll be the next first-teamer from our youth academy. So, all in all, a good weekend for the Spurs youngsters...

    The Michael Dawson (and Robbie Blake) appreciation thread

    Just on a positive note - Michael Dawson, as he has been every time I have seen him this season, was excellent today. He is one of the few spurs players who puts his body on the line for us and one of the few of whom I'm proud to have playing for us. To come back from those quite frankly rather...

    Modric, can we fit him in to a 4-4-2?

    This is a question that has been bothering me for quite some time now and I wasn't able to find a thread on it when I searched. Is there ANY way we could play Modric in a 4-4-2 with the players we've got? I just feel that we're lacking a bit of a goal threat with only one up front and as such...

    So, who do you want to win the Naming Rights?

    I quite fancy the 'Daz Dome'- Whiter than Lilywhites. Possibly the 'Andrex Arena' - wiping the sh**ty A***nal out of North London? Perhaps the 'Frosties Bowl'? We're Great!! Maybe the 'Metropolitan Police Park' - where points win prizes (rather than no licence)? Or simply the Tesco...

    Ramos on Football Focus

    Tottenham submit Berbatov dossier

    From the BBC: Tottenham have submitted a year's worth of evidence to the Premier League to support their complaint over Manchester United's pursuit of Dimitar Berbatov. A newspaper report quoting United boss Sir Alex Ferguson as saying he expected to sign the striker is understood to be only...

    UEFA Cup 2008/2009

    So SCers, I thought I'd compile a quick list of all those teams that will be automatically involved in the 1st round of the UEFA Cup next season. We're missing the Scottish entrant because their league hasnae finished yet and I added Man City for some unknown reason. SPURS Sevilla Valencia...
