Doesn't matter anyway, as we're gonna win the fucker.
We can definitely beat them, especially without Kompany, Yaya and possibly Silva. They don't seem to like rotation, which is criminal considering their squad.Quote:

You deserve to lose to be honest cos you are all racist bastardsQuote:

very impressed with this guy, especially loved the way he dealt with being sent off, handed over the arm band, told his team mates to back off the ref and left the field with no dramas. a great defender too - should be the cornerstone of citeh's defence for years to come really.
Top defender. Wish we'd nabbed him years ago.
Yeah he's class.
City got him for less than 10m as well.
Cunts. Hope someone like Real Madrid come in for him.
Shame he doesn't actually seem to grasp why he was sent off, eloquent though - no doubt.
Eloquent in his lack of understanding. :unsure:Quote:

And 2 of the 4 games hes missing are nothing games v Liverpool
you have to agree it's more substantial than 'i'm not that type of player'Quote:

Fair enough.Quote:

Got the ball as cleanly as any challenge in history and none of the player.
Wasnt even one of those "il take both man and ball out" tackles.
Concentrated on the ball and got it. FA :doh:
i'm sure you've read the counter arguments about the tackle and i agree with those, which i'm sure you don't so there no point getting further into that.Quote:

Well yes you can be eloquent but ultimately wrong. Just like you can be blunt and be right.Quote:

It's like the tackle from behind - there seems to be this idea (and it was again shown tonight) that you can't be penalised for it regardless of ball winning and that's only come to fruition in a recently sanitised game when it has been an offence since the 1994 World Cup!

What a farce.
He'll go to PSG eventually.
He'll be more unfit than Arshavin when he finally steps on to a football pitch though.

HARRY REDKNAPP has taunted Spurs' title rivals by claiming: We haven't bought our success like you.
Redknapp cranked up the tension ahead of their clash with megabucks Manchester City and Roberto Mancini by revealing he is "proud" of building his team without breaking the bank.
He said: "City are where they are because of Sheikh Mansour and Chelsea thanks to Roman Abramovich.
"We have not done it that way and it makes me proud.
"You don't have to go out and spend fortunes to find good players."
The Etihad showdown on Sunday week is now a key fixture in the title race with Spurs just three points behind wobbling City.
Redknapp added: "Spurs are not third in the Premier League because someone has walked through the door at White Hart Lane and slapped a bundle of money on my desk.
"City can pay players £200,000 a week, it's unbelievable.
"Man Utd wanted Samir Nasri but he blew them out for City.
"The people running Spurs have invested wisely.
"Some of the players we brought in raised eyebrows, like Younes Kaboul, but he's made excellent progress. Hopefully it is coming together now."
Arry talking again.
over to you Joker.

What a man.
What he says is right. In fact, he could go on ti say that he has out thought us on our own strategy which we had supposedly patented.

Tottenham manager Harry Redknapp admits Manchester City loanee Emmanuel Adebayor will have to take a massive pay-cut if he is to remain at White Hart Lane next season. Adebayor has played a key role in helping Spurs turn around their season. Since he signed on loan from City, the Londoners have lost just once and they can move level with the forward's parent club at the top of the Premier League on Saturday if they beat Wolves at home.
The Togo frontman has struck up a good understanding with Rafael van der Vaart to keep top goalscorer Jermain Defoe out of the team and is keen to make his move to North London permanent.
Spurs' top earners are thought to be on roughly £70,000 a week - about a third of what Adebayor receives at the Etihad Stadium, and Redknapp summed up the gulf in spending power between the two clubs by saying: "He has done well for us. He has worked hard but he is on amazing money.
"The other week, one of the lads told him that he had not paid his £50 fine for being the worst player in training on a Friday morning. One of the lads said to him: 'Bl**dy hell, Ade, you are on 200 grand a week and you can't afford to pay a £50 fine!' He replied: 'Don't insult me, it's 225!'"
The laughter that followed the anecdote was followed up by a serious message from Redknapp, who admitted: "He certainly isn't getting that here."
Spurs' resurgence started when they Adebayor scored on his debut to help the club beat Wolves 2-0 at Molineux in September.
Since then Redknapp's men have lost just once and have only drawn three times in their following 17 games.
Ade will be off on loan somewhere else next season tbh.
:lol:
Ade :bow:
How he is missed
The dictionary needs to add Adebayor to its definition of mercenary!Quote:

Say what you like about Redknapp but he's done a pretty good job with them.
You can only beat what is put in front of you and the spuds have done that. Their second half schedule is more difficult but they are currently on course for a points total that would eclipse some of the title winning totals if the past.
Well in front of them is Citeh away, Chelsea away, Liverpool away and Arsenal away all in two months. Plus Man Utd at home - their home form is very good against most of the sides in the league but Man Utd at home is the one fixture they've found the hardest to win.
They also play pretty good football these days, they have a lot of pace and are pretty direct seems to be working for them this season.
I said 'arry would be the best manager they have had for decades and saw lots of posts saying how shit he was. He is very effective as a manager and was the most likely to produce a situation where spuds could end up above us. He still has some tough games to play but mentally they are on a roll. Hopefully that will change in the next few weeks.
Punching above their weight tbh, no doubt spuds have had a great start to the season, but the 2nd will be harder for them much harder. they have never been here before and it will showQuote:

Harry has always been a good manager he just never had the chance at a big club tbf. However saying that had he gone to us or the mancs years ago, i doubt he'd have done as well, from where spurs were when he took over the pressure has not been too much for him. now the pressure will begin and lets see how well he really does.Quote:
