Cripes..!
What a different team for the 2nd half! I was there tonight thinking that this was to be the same old story (North upper- so I didn't see many of our 1st half chances!).
What confirmation that Ramos has tactical balls of steel. I love BMJ, but there's no way he would have taken the decisions Ramos took tonight.
Nobody thought of bringing THud on (none near me anyway). After getting him angry with talk of a weight problem - he made pass after pass, and although lacking in pace, he didn't look like he was lacking motivation (whcich I think he was guilty of previously). I think we all wanted to see Boateng at some point too - but only when three goals up- and that didn't look like happening! When he got a nod he showed his awareness and positioning, his shots weren't fab - but they were shots nevertheless!
Bent (not worth 16.5mio, IMHO) was a revelation, better on the last defender than Berbs or Keane - he went up for everything and caused their defenders so much grief.
Malbranque was busy displaying his best performance for a long time (I know - injured).
I was worried for Robbo in the first half, and I think he takes great confidence from the Paxton end - 'coz he don't get that sort of banter from the north upper. Actually, north upper - give him a chant or two and see what happens - we didn't get a thumbs-up all night coz we were wining. at him..!
Lee deserved the hook at half time, Jenas would have had another 20 mins , but f*ck it.
Doom-mongerers are not permitted to state Aalborgs reputation. We have to start somewhere, and we have most certainly started with Ramos.
I'm buzzin. I'm chuffed to bits. I'm Tottenham!
It couldn't have got much worse, but this is defo a better teamwork ethic.
COYS!
I'd love to hear your opinions...
