Sibdane Posted September 26, 2013 Report Share Posted September 26, 2013 I agree with both of you. I hate to play conspiracy theorist, but I really feel the Qataris paid off some FIFA voters. I would have even accepted it in Australia -- which somehow only received one vote -- if the USA wasn't chosen. I really think they should consider the human rights abuses when making a choice on where to play the greatest game in the world, so all of the world will feel comfortable enough to attend. I'm not as upset about Russia, but it still seems odd that they would get it, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibdane Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 It's hard to believe that he is only 25. It seems like he left us ages ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted September 27, 2013 Report Share Posted September 27, 2013 James Vaughan just missed a late penalty for Huddersfield v Blackpool (though he got an equaliser earlier).. and he had a superbly taken goal disallowed. Only watched a handful but he is such a pain in the arse for opposition defenders but also such a good hardworking player. Id gladly swap Jelavic for him lol. pete0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vranny Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I just get the feeling he's found his level. I have no doubt that he'll get another chance at the highest level at some stage, but seems like the kind of player that'll dominate the Championship and struggle in the Prem. Hope he keeps up his current form though and wish him all the best for the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogsy Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Spurs 1 up against the plastics, I think they are going to be a force this season, they have bought good players, have a good sized squad filled with quality. Not sure if they will win the league but I can see a top three finish! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fearthainn Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 He's been in mine from the start, alongside Baines and Yaya Touré one of the few that has stayed there every week so far!

pete0 Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Schrulle should have scored, nothing threatening from Spurs. Torres has played well, but has just got a second yellow for a 50/50 header wasn't even close to a foul hover Torres should have been off earlier.

Matt Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 We are better than Spurs. last season maybe, not this season. Not sure what BT Sport are complaining about regarding the Torres second booking, he went to take the player out not play the ball Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 What did Tom Ince play like? Didnt really do anything in the first half. Only saw bits and bobs of the rest of the game so cant really comment in full. You can see there is something there but I get the feeling he would struggle at the very top.

They get all their points from the bottom half. Had expected them to be a force once they got Soldado, but watching them against the good teams, nothing has changed.

They kept hold of the ball well, but Chelsea looked the most threatening. If it wasn't for Sigurdsson getting lucky with the run of the ball, I doubt they'd have got a goal today.

If it wasn't for Sigurdsson getting lucky with the run of the ball, I doubt they'd have got a goal today. I can remember Paulinho hitting the post. I can't recall any of Chelsea's chances in the first half. I think Spurs got some very good chances in the second half as well, like Defoe's shot.

KingsRoadBlue Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Given the balance of play 1-1 was a fair result. Mata coming on at half-time changed the whole course of the game. Spurs dominated the 1st half and we did the 2nd. Townsend had an embarrasing dive which resulted in a yellow card. And Vertonghen of all people had an even more embarrasing dive against Torres which after Torres outburst resulted in a yellow for Nino. It really was a truly pathetic dive by Vertonghen though, didn't expect that from him, he seems like a leader. The red card shouldn't have been. Both players made a foul and if one received the card so should've the other. Oh well, a point from the Lane is better then nothing. At least Torres played a fantastic 2nd half up until the red, and I hope Mata proved the he belons on the pitch. He was the soul of our team in the 2nd half. Also an assist to Terry's equalizer.
