Definitely, he is a CB after all. Walker will need to fight for his place once he comes back, something which hadn't been needed for years.

Loving our depth across the park, Lloris, Eriksen and Lamela are probably our only nailed on starters ATM =p~

Depth... what depth? Our midfield has a bad game and we get pumped by Liverpool. Liverpool played very well but we created almost nothing.

Lloris and Kaboul were poor for the first. Lloris should have done better and Kaboul was out of position.

Poor set piece delivery from Eriksen. Lamela gave the ball away a lot. Bentaleb and Capoue allowed Liverpool to get at the back four far too easily.

Not much went right. Back down to earth we plummet.

I just watched that pool game and honestly it felt like no sp*rs players were even interested to be out there.

You can't play your game when you have your opponents putting pressure on the ball reciever and inturn we being better all round.
pv remember the 2 pool arse games from last season - your lot were much the same ;)

Overall I thought spurs looked very dangerous at times, their time will come, I expect they to get some points from the gooners this season :p

The worrying thin is that everyone knows liverpool press and play with pace and it seemed like there was no plan b for us.

I get the 5-1 at Anfield but what other game are you talking about? The one where we beat you 2-0 or the FA Cup game where we beat you 2-1?

Ooops yer my bad, errored and corrected, at least our 5 still out number your 4 from 2 :lol:
I'm just looking forward to the day the spurs give you a loss and I reckon this year could be it ;)

You say that like they haven't beaten us before. In the league, until last season, they'd beaten us at least once every season since 2009/10.

:d its ok sydcro im just giving the out numbered spurs supporter or 2 some moral support for they are outnumbered and targetted by you goonerites here.

Kaboom was fantastic last night. Shows what he can do when he has a decent partner in defence.

:lol: at Arsene complaining about time wasting and parking the bus when his team were the champions of it in the early 2000's :lol: Whinging prick, same as his fans who think a few still frames can over rule goal line technology :lol: They should look at themselves as to why they couldn't break down our back 4 instead of blaming everyone else. They had like 20 set pieces.

People are going on about us parking the bus but if you look at it we had just as many clear cut chances. Chadli, Mason & Ade all had very good chances. Arsenal dominated the first 20, we dominated the end of the 1st half and they killed us after HT. Just their way of showing how bitter they are.

Was strange seeing a Sp*rs side playing more for the draw than the win, but it worked so can't really fault you.

It ewas also bizarre to see Kyle Naughton keep Ozil in his pocket most of the game. Probably our worst player last season and yet in his preferred position he's actually decent. Keep it up!!!

Today marks 10 years since the death of the great Bill Nicholson.

RIP, legend of the club and the game.

'It is better to fail aiming high than to succeed aiming low. And we of Spurs have set our sights very high, so high in fact that even failure will have in it an echo of glory.'

One of the greatest quotes from him, hopefully we can do the job tomorrow for him!

Kane has got to be pushing for a start. I'd love to try and play Bob into form but do we have the patience for it?

We could go for a 4-4-2 with Soldado and Kane up front but I think Eriksen is wasted out wide. We could try having Lamela and Eriksen roaming in between the strikers and DM's but that would leave us short at the back. Also pretty harsh to drop Chadli ATM.

Also Lamela's first goal was one for the ages.

Some goal from Lamela.

Just saw Kane in goals, felt so bad for him :lol:

A hatrick was enough :lol:

Adebayor genuinely needs to be on a month to month contract.

* Week to week

Ok so it's almost January, who do you reckon we should bring in? I'd love Bony tbh.

In an ideal world this is who I would hope us to buy/sell

IN:
Wilfried Bony
Steven Caulker
Miguel Lopes

OUT:
Emmanuel Adebayor
Paulinho
Vlad Chiriches
Benoit Assou-Ekotto

Would mean our stocks looked like this

GK:
Hugo Lloris
Michel Vorm
Brad Friedel

RB:
Kyle Walker
Miguel Lopes
Kyle Naughton
Eric Dier

CB:
Jan Vertonghen
Steven Caulker
Federico Fazio
Younes Kaboul
Eric Dier

LB:
Ben Davies
Danny Rose
Miguel Lopes
Kyle Naughton

DM:
Moussa Dembele
Ettiene Capoue
Ryan Mason
Benjamin Stambouli
Nabil Bentaleb

RM:
Erik Lamela
Andros Townsend
Aaron Lennon

LM:
Nacer Chadli
Christian Eriksen
Andros Townsend

AM:
Christian Eriksen
Moussa Dembele
Erik Lamela
Nacer Chadli
Ryan Mason

ST:
Wilfried Bony
Harry Kane
Roberto Soldado


But I doubt any of this would happen :lol: In other news, I'm warming to the idea of playing Soldado as a 10.

Almost January? Your LM looks very week on that list. Eriksen doesn't play well there and Townsend doesn't look like taking the step up required.

Not sure about your DM depth either. Mason has looked promising but I don't think that list is strong enough for top 4 ambitions.

Either way, you'd be paying way over the odds to strengthen those positions in January.

Last night was the worst Spurs performance i've ever seen. I bet our pass completion was below 70%. Our pass completion for pass>10m would be lucky to be 30%.

Actually was at 80% 337/419

How long until Pochettino pulls out the Sherwood trick of using Europa League and cup games to help his win%. Surprised not more has been made of him having the worst win% of any Sp*rs PL manager at this stage of the season since Santini.

Mate to be fair if he was winless we'd probably accept it. We're just sick of having new managers.

Late show away again!

Kane was class, in the end we were relatively lucky to win that game. A draw would have been fair. Where we moved greatly this week compared to the Palace game is our rotation in the front third, going forward Kane, Soldado, Eriksen and Lamela were rotating so much that Swansea found it hard to mark them. Walker was a bit rusty but still showed how important he is to us. I think the team we played last night is probably the best we could field ATM (or at least we are definitely able to now). It's been a good 2 years since we've had that. Also, Mason has been excellent. The combination of Nabil and Ryan works well because they compliment each other brilliantly.

How much longer can we back Bobby and Lamela?

They're the most expensive signings in history and both so disappointing.

I'm willing to give Erik until the end of the season, Soldado probably has until January I'd say. Last night for me was confirmation that Bony would be excellent for us. Although in Soldado's defence his general play has improved. I think I would warm to Lamela a lot more if not for that dodgy haircut :lol:
