    good hard fought win against a decent team.
    not vintage spurs but we deserved the win.

    positives,

    palacious was great in the middle.
    modric looking really good & sharp now.
    crouchy getting on the scoresheet.
    king playing full 90 & looked good.
    bale looking better.(good ekotto got competition)
    another clean sheet!

    negatives,
    didnt create much- 1 goal was deflected & other was a keeper error(lennons absence still obvious)
    defoe still quiet (could be lack of service)
    hudd still not marking his stamp in middle of park.
    corluka.(just joking! steady performance)

    well done boys but will have to up our game for birmingham thou!

      Bentley was trying too fucking hard again - trying to be flash with back heels and the like, CUT IT OUT YOU PUFF and you might get another crack.

      Bale the little welsh monkey face was excellent, gets the Mellie SEAL of approval

      Modric, well....even though he has the face of a croatian girl he's fucking beautiful on the pitch. Good stuff yid army, lets crack that slum in Brum next

      SB, I was going to move into your camp first half! thought Corluka looked a bit ropey first half but got better later...nice to see Bale enjoying his game & lookiing confident wasn't it?

      Unlike some on here Beni I have absolutely no problem with you or anybody else disagreeing with me. I am used to it at home!

      I hope I am proved wrong and that Hudd goes on to be one of the best MF's in the PL but at the moment he is too slow (he got caught several times with the ball last night hence the fouls to try and win the ball back) and seems to think hitting 40 yard balls which more often or not get cut out is ok as long as one or two come off and makes him look "special"

      His tackling is very suspect and thats not good in centre MF. But most of all, and I have always had an issue with this type of player, he looks as if he couldn't give a flying fig about the game or what the result is. That really gets my goat!!

      But everybody see's something different and I am not so bothered that I will put up much resistence. Cheers.

      re Bentley, I thought he did ok, but was worried that he didn't seem to want to take his FB on - he kept cutting back inside, didn't lose the ball much, control was good but doesn't have an ounce of Lennon's confidence (or pace?) - guess thats understandable with whats happened this season but if he stays, he needs to get it back to be truly effective for us. Look at the difference with Bale's confidence & pace on the left
      Hudd's languid style can be frustrating, I agree, but feel he has grown this season with faith shown in him, he now needs to take it up another notch. Goodbye Jenas.

      Can't argue with that Lee. I thought Modric had a good game but lets not forget he was up against a third choice RB. Bale also did well going forward but I would like to be able to say Bale had a really good game after a match where he was up against a good winger like Valencia. Then he will have come of age IMO.

      Re Hudd. I am aware I am in danger of becoming as obsessed with Hudd as SB is about Corluka but I just can't stand the apparent lack of effort and slapdash attitude he displays most of the time. Skillful undoubtedly but that only makes his lack of effort more galling.
