    Could Defoe solve our inability to convert possession into goals ?

    Dan Walker On Football Focus

    I only briefly heard Dan Walker today on Football Focus saying he could be criticised for saying Spurs could be Title conenders. Did anyone else hear this ? Could it be the BBC hierarchy, Alan Hansen or someone else who would criticise him - any ideas ? Also a fixed wooden cuboid box was shown...

    Lee Dixon - "We've overacheived" !

    On MOTD 2 Lee Dixon said we'd overacheived !What an insult . What arrogance . We have not overacheived , our position in the league is down to playing well. No more - no less. The same was said before when we got into Europe and I get tired of hearing these remarks, especially from knowledgable...

    No way Walker tried to con ref into goal kick

    The ref gave a corner kick against us v Wolves which was in fact a goal kick and guess what ? They scored from it. Walker clearly shepherded the ball out as he knew it was to be a goal kick. Anyone who has played the game would know that with the amount of space Walker had he could have easily...

    Do anti-Defoe brigade now see why Redknapp will not sell him ?

    Defoe showed again v W. Brom how valuable he is to our club and does not receive the apprecxiation he deserves. Apart from a good and very important goal he got better as the game went on . I watched the game but they did not show on MOTD how he linked up with Adebayor and in particular one...

    I have not seen anything about the reason Defoe was not at Wigan yesterday. Can anyone explain ?

    Am I having a nightmare ?

    I woke this morning. Keane scores 51st International goal, Payluchenko scores 3 for Russia so they may be staying. We have signed 40 year old Friedel ( and may keep Gomes - you know" I can make saves but invariably knock it back to the striker so that he can have another go !") we are to sign...

    MOTD Opening Shots - No Greaves ?

    If this has been raised before my apologies. Has anyone noticed that Jimmy Greaves the most prolific goalscorer seen in this country does not appear in the opening shots. There are great players like Moore, Best, Cantona, Hoddle and some not so great. But no Greaves, unless I missed him in which...

    Van der Vaart- is he injured ?

    I have been abroad and friends ? have said VDV is injured and that is why we got him at such a bargain price. Does anyone know ?

    Chelsea played badly - we didnt play well !

    Andy Gray said Chelsea "didnt turn up" and Lee Dixon said Chelsea were poor when we beat them. I find this rather strange as we ran all over them (especially Bale & Modric) and could easily have won 5-1. Surely they could have given us some well deserved praise but they just couldnt bring...

    Why was Bale changed to defence ?

    After 2 great results, where Bales attacking performances were one of the main reason for our wins, why did Harry need to make any changes ? Dont tell me he thought Kaboul would be too slow. We had a winning formula. "If it aint broke dont try to fix it" !! comes to mind. If we had carried on as...

    No Crouch = Good Football

    While Peter Crouch was on the subs bench we played some good football. Through the gaps, on the floor - really good stuff- especially from Modric. I feel when Crouch plays his head becomes a magnet for the others to pass to and we play too much "route one" which does not work. Nothing personal...

    Penalty follow up ?

    I only saw the briefest of highlights on Australian TV but with the penalty no Spurs players seemed to follow ball in after Defoe had taken the kick. There were several Everton players around but if Spurs had followed the ball in we may well have scored the rebound from the keepers save. Surely...

    When are Modric & Lennon back?

    Apologies if this has been asked before. We badly miss these two and the break for the Brazil game may be our good fortune.

    Do we want 61000 stadium capacity - vote!!

    We have a golden opportunity to go one better than our neighbours at the Emirates. Their capacity is 60432. It has been stated that our new stadium capacity will be 60000. I think 61000 has a nicer ring to it and the figure 61 was an important date for us when we did the double. I believe our...

    Great result - can do even better

    Last nights game was great. With a keeper who could deal with crosses we could have won it. Also I believe we can do even better. Last nights goals for us were all from direct shots at goal, something we have been criticised for previously for not doing enough of. Quite agree. If we then add in...

    New stadium or expand WHL ?

    I have read that expansion at WHL would increase capacity to 52,000. The existing poor transport to and from the ground and the poor parking would seem to remain. If other clubs are ambitious enough grasp the nettle and build new stadiums (Arsenal, WHam amongst others) surely we can. I remember...

    We don't need Ramos

    We don't need Ramos we need a witchdoctor - to remove the curse that has been put upon us. I have never known such a run of freakish goals against us (Dawson's deflection yesterday was the latest) and last minute goals (Samba yesterday but we should have stopped him) which have robbed us of...

    We must have Monchi as well

    Is Monchi coming in with Ramos? I am sure success will follow if the pair arrive together. If not then I have serious doubts. Read the following, it's very impressive and clearly we need both men. In the Daily Telegraph today - With a clinical eye and backed by Spain's most fruitful youth...
