Anybody notice that Bentley seemed non-plussed by his goals?

He didn't exactly celebrate like the one scored in the 4-4 at the Emirates.

Bale looked good in the video, but let's not pretend this is a notable victory - it was a strong Spurs reserves against a weaker Arsenal reserves team.

2-1 is hardly going to set the record straight for those "premiership" players that played that night.

Sorry for bringing the mood down, but we need to see the likes of Bale, Bentley and Chimbonda popping 4 or 5 goals past Wenger's wizards-in-waiting.

The only positives I am taking, is that it's always good to beat Arsenal, and it would be better that they learn to lose to us now so they know how it'll be when they get older ;)

Don't you think it's a bit of a come down/embarrasment going from scoring a wonder goal against your former team in front of 60000 to scoring a goal in the reserves in front of a few hundred? :)

Anyway, they were good goals, I wonder how he's really feeling, if he wants to stay and fight for his place then that's good and he will be an asset for us next season. If he starts moaning that he should be first team then he should be sold.

I actually feel pretty sorry for Bentley - he seems a really likeable lad and anyone could see when he first arrived that he absolutely loved being at Spurs.
I would like things to turn around for him at Spurs but if not, I don't think we can afford a player of his value not contributing to the team.

Fans FC had a bullshit article about rumours of a Bentley/Babel swap. Obviously fabricated doohickey, but who would take that?

Babel has pace but a pretty poor attitude tbh, he's been bleating for a while about how he'll leave if he doesn't play at Liverpool, at least Bentley doesn't whinge in public. If Babel finds himself on our bench - which is more than likely - I have no doubt he'll be demanding a move. We need more players with Palacios's mentality as Harry mentioned, humble and committed in every game.
