Did we miss Adebayor?

[3Dnata]

I think he needs to realise he's not beyond dropping.
I don't think we have the permanent answer in our squad but I think JD has earned his chance and EA has earned the bench.
When the mood takes him EA should be a regular starter but he really hasn't done his job for a while now in my view.

 

[JerryGarcia]

I think we would have won that with Ade in the side

 

[Mullers]

I was going to vote yes but you put "he should start all the time" after it which i don't agree with.

 

[jamesc0le]

is this a wind up

 

[3Dnata]

No. I don't know what he's brought to the table in recent games.

 

[Black]

what kind of foolishness is this. We would have won that game by a mile if ade was playing

Hes gives defenders something to think about, runs the channels, brings people in to play, closes down. How often do you see ade just strolling around the pitch ball watching hands on hips. His work rate alone would have won us that game

 

[jamesc0le]

so you didn't thiink we missed him today? he certainly isn't prolific and his chance conversion % stats do not look amazing but we have plenty of dangerous players who can get the goals, only they do not look half as dangerous when ade is not playing. he is either scaring defences shitless, making them laugh or more probably keeping them busy thus creating chances and spaces for other players to exploit.

[jonathanhotspur]

Fuck my old boots. I would welcome Zamora.

it's an old sc joke from the darren:bowdown:bent days

 

[Kendall]

Yes, but he would never have scored the goal JD did.

 

[HotspurFC1950]

Yes we missed Ade's type of player.

We could not play our usual style.

Levy & Harry have done well but if they did not know it before they surely know now we need 2 players of Ade's type {assuming Ade is not one of the two).

One on the field and one understudy on the bench or rotating.

That means we will lose JD cos he wont put up with bench, Pav is obviously not rated so we need a third striker of a different type to the other two.

I posted before the game that our best shot was Pav but i can totally understand why Harry had to start JD.

 

[Spurs_Bear]

Yes, but he would never have scored the goal JD did.

He would have scored the one JD didn't though.

We missed Adebayor like a fat kid misses cakes.

Reckon? don't know if he'd have been near it and if he was, probably offside anyway.

 

[Spurs_Bear]

Yeah reckon. He's taller innit.

 

[Kendall]

Different player tho innit. Not sure he'd have made up the ground.
