  1. Overall i think we played ok. Some mistakes in the first half and we again ran out of steam in the second half. Manure was the better team today. Especially tactically they were far superior. We kept running and running while they easily controlled the game. At times they walked past our midfield. We simply lack bite and determination, nor do we have anyone in the team that can lift us up when things go sour. CC is completely worthless, there exists no words to describe how poor a footballer he really is. Saddens me to see he plays week in, week out and in a position where we have one of the finest players in England. Petrov is good player but he is sadly too immobile given our tactics and the fact we hardly ever control the game.

    Also i think it showed that we were a bit tired today. And that was to be expected given the amount of games our first 11 has played recently. I just hope this won't ruin the remainder of the season. We still have plenty to play for and plenty to be happy about. UTV!

  2. Can we really know which type of player Delph is going to be yet? Personally I've only seen him play against Wigan & ManU at home. And i wouldn't want to judge him too much based on these displays. He seems to have some real quality but is certainly too lightweight to play as a defensive midfielder at the moment. Also his tackling seems a bit reckless and hazardous. This surely causes a major problem as he would pick up too many cards and give away needless free kicks in dangerous areas when playing as a DM.

    An advanced midfield position would be my pick for the time being. His passing seems good and he has a decent shot too. I also like his energy and he seems to have some genuine ability with the ball. Given MONs reluctance to use him more often, I doubt we will see his full potential this season.

  3. A valuable point gained, but that is not really the issue. We were very poor today, again. Apart from our back four, which was quite solid, we weren't able to produce anything worthwhile. Well, Milners shot in the first half was a good effort, but that was about all we could conjure up today.

    Sadly, we cannot really impose ourselves on the better sides in the Premier League, mainly because our general play is very predictable and we don't really have the creativity nor do we have the ability to change things around, when they aren't going our way. If our ridiculous counter-attack-hoof-ball play isn't working out, we are more or less clueless, as is our wonderful manager. In my view our biggest concern is our midfield, which is overrun almost every game, especially by our direct rivals and the big 4.

    Still spurs were only marginally better than us today. They can whine all day long, but the fact remains they too play very poor hoof-ball and are also largely predictable. Yet their determination and effort were far superior to ours today and we can really count ourselves lucky to have gotten anything from this game.
