Huddlestone has the potential to be world class. He just needs a chance.


He's had plenty of chances and for the most part hasn't been at the races. He is miles away from being able to start in the Prem in CM and his mentlity is also terrible.

A winner he aint

Has 2 great feet, can pass and strike the ball magnificently but he's lacking in almost every other department, most importantly heart.

A luxury player at present, no more.

It's kinda hard to have heart when you get no more than one or two starts in a row before being dropped to the bench again. Huddlestone needs to be given time to grow and develop into the position, and he needs that by being given playing time. He's not gonna be of much use to us playing from the bench constantly.

I completely agree.. If he was given the chances that Zokora has been given I think we would see a whole new side to the HUdd...

I have been utterly dejected with Jenas. I know he was mr inconsistent, I had accepted that, but now he is getting worse. Lacks any vision at all to play as a creative/attacking midfielder, if he is going to play we need two upfront to give him options. What ahs really annoyed, irrespective of him being our captain FFS, is his work rate and desire to the cause is totally lacking. Number of times I see him run into a player, go down, then spend five minutes getting back, its totally unacceptable. Why Ramos keeps on picking him I dont know.

As for Zokora, the lad just isnt good enough. You can see he tries, he is one of those players that will playw herever the coach wants him to and give 100%, but his ebst just isnt good enough. Good engine, is a quick runner, ahtletic, but technically and mentally lacking.

If we are goiing to go with three in midfield I'd like to see Modric, Huddlestone and O'Hara. Gives you a bit of everything, rather than a lot of nothing. Give Jaime responsibility for the midfield, make sure everyone obeys his instructions.

Wrong. Modric looked different class when he came on. His touch was good, he was the only player on the pitch who looked like he had time and space on the ball. He was moving well and begging for the ball. It is a shame that he was only on for 10 minutes while we had 11 men because he was doing a good job bringing players into the game. After that his role changed but he still did it well.

Most of these ideal formations still only include 1 out and out forward.

If we don´t revert to 4-4-2 soon we´re going to struggle all season to score more than 1 goal a game.

Once Bale went off against Stoke and we went to 4 in the middle, we actually looked like we knew our roles for the first time this year.

I´d try any combination of CMs to see which works.

Firstly Modric and O´Hara in my opinion.

So many cm combinations that could work and none of them include that twat zokora...

He needs to get out and the only way he is going to be out of the first team is to get rid of that twat ramos...

My five point strategy to sorting out tottenham

1. Shoot Ramos
2. Shoot Zokora
3. Shoot Dawson
4. Bring in Venables
5. Play Huddlestone more
