Performance Analysis I’m not going to bore you with some sort of unnecessary preamble. I will simply say that Spurs have had an ok season and here’s what I think of each player’s individual performance. The scale I’ve rated all the players based on their performances through the season. In a percentage of cases I […]
Just noticed this. Jermaine Jenas could face disciplinary action over his comments about referee Howard Webb following Tottenham’s 5-2 defeat at Manchester United. The Spurs and England midfielder accused Webb of “crumbling under pressure” after the hosts were awarded a controversial penalty while 2-0 down. An Football Association spokesman said: “We have written to Jermaine […]
A smidgen of credit for ‘Arry Yeah I was f’n and blindin’ ‘Arry three months ago. Deservedly so, I think. Now, Spurs are well clear of relegation and a point off seventh place and a place in Europe so I look somewhat “wrong”. Right? Well, not quite. I did say at the end of the […]
How did you get on with those boyhood heroes, Keano? Are you good enough for Tottenham again?
Hey ‘Arry, rather than chuck away £25m on Defoe and Palacios, why not bid for these guys? Even this one would be an improvement. Don’t worry if you can’t afford to buy the entire first team squad – we can always bargain with any old tat we have lying around.
There’s been no pretence on my part to like Harry Redknapp. For me his tenure at Spurs is like giving a market trader a job at ‘Arrods. In an earlier blog I lamented his appointment with observation such as “he’s crass, rarely takes a defeat on the chin without having a go at a referee […]
I’m going to link a few thoughts below so try to stick with me. The Tottenham revival I wouldn’t say Spurs revival (which has seen them jump a mighty one point clear of the relegation zone – but then again eighth place Portsmouth are only five points clear of it themselves) has seen them outplay […]
For someone who left an Anderton-shaped impression on the physio room beds at Tottenham it’s surprising to learn that Darren Anderton made 599 senior appearances before hanging up his boots this weekend. Whichever wag came up with the nickname “Sicknote” many moons ago, it was well earned by the former England midfielder. As a Spurs […]
‘Arry Just on a side note, a radio bulletin this morning claimed that ‘Arry Redknapp is chasing his “fourth consecutive win” as Spurs manager against Dinamo Zagreb. I ignored the obvious mistake and a few hours later after realising it was wrong they changed it to “third consecutive win”. So I texted the radio station […]
Oh dear. There’s no doubt that Tottenham were a sinking ship under Junande Ramos, a man afflicted by an inability to motivate, organise or coach players effectively. How he could go from being one of the top managers in Europe with consecutive European trophies to one floundering at the bottom of the Premiership and losing […]
