Tottenham Vs Sheffield United: Leg 1 Match Thread

My initial reaction to Ade being captain was "madness, he won't score so you are missing out on double points"
Think I'm obsessed with Fantasy Football.

Everyone is making their Adebayor decisions based on hearsay. Who knows for certain if there was ever a bust up. Or if there was, that he hasn't come back and worked really hard to win Poch over. The way that Poch has gone about things so far is enough for him to warrant our respect with whatever team he puts out. He's not had him around the team for however long for a reason, and if he now deems it right to have him back then I back him.

People believe what they want to believe. Madness to take the word of someone they've never met over the manager who has, consistently, said he trains hard and he has a place in his plans. Some of our so called fans wanted him out the minute he signed, this allows them to scream it from the rooftops.

I think it's like the naughty kid in class being given the super important job of picking up all the pencils from everyones table, so he's kept busy and doesn't start slapping all his classmates.

but I'm worried this naughty kid might go ' ha, u guys still need me at the end of the day isn't it'

should have been vert though. i know poch wanna use this in attempt to trade for a motivated ade but still i feel ade is being rewarded too easily

It's not really a reward when he's vice club captain is it?

 

[haxman]

Kick off delayed so you might be alright yet @bomberH

There are support groups, treatments. Maybe a new hobby. Photography?

I saw the team news elsewhere, logged on and I just knew what would be talked about

Outstanding work with the trolling Poch, outstanding. 10/10

If we aren't receiving adequate interest in Ade and/or Soldado we might as well make the best of it and build them back up to more likely improve their performances instead of continuing to kick them back. That's not to say replace Kane of course or even be in the starting league lineups of course, but I see no harm in giving Ade a bit of a lift when we're thin in the AM positions as is and unlikely to move him on as is. At very worst, he at least contributes more than he was a month ago.

Oh and humans can do this crazy thing called "adapt" where they remodel their behavior a bit to make themselves better.

If only it was his last match

So game delayed.

You'd think Sheffield United would want to arrive mid-afternoon, to help acclimatize to the warmer weather at the very least.

Adebayor first goal scorer written all over this one.

Poch <3

Ade <3

Captain wonderful, shows that Poch rates Ade higher than Soldado, something which the intelligent ones within the group already knew.

Said 4 days after Soldado started in PL...

Why not? Can't rely on Harry Kane all season, soldado clearly isnt up to it.

Adebayor, if he wants to be, is one of the better strikers we can get and I'd trust him against lower league anyway.

The problem with Ade is just the ifs and buts. A man with his "talent" and his salary should be more professional in is behavior. Why is this not the case? It might be because the man lack the needed desire and hunger I don't know. His form always comes when he has something to prove as far as I am concerned. What I do know for sure, I prefer Soldado over Ade any day of the week, both on and off the field.

 

[JaySpur]

Will Kane play just behind Adebayor? I didn't see the last game but from comments in the match thread some didn't like that set-up

 

[Essexyid07]

Well this is great. Stuck on a13 because a406 has been closed. Looks like no semi final for me :-/

Kick off delayed 15 mins Sheffield utd team not at the ground yet either

Shit. Are you telling me League Cup games count in Fantasy Football? I have cocked up my 2014/15 FF Season if that's true.
