Tottenham Hotspur sign a brilliant midfielder on one hell of a “wheeler dealer” (shh… don’t tell ‘Arry) snag and now every reporter in the world seems to think we have a huge problem on our hands. “Where will he play? Who will be benched? OMG”. That’s all the jive these days. I thought we had

So Harry doesn’t like the title of “wheeler & dealer” given to him by the media after all! Not sure if this reporter will ever get another chance with Redknapp after this interview-gone-wrong. [Source: Youtube

So Wigan have somewhat redeemed themselves at the Lane and Roberto Martinez saves his job for another day or so. They were definitely not the pushovers most people thought they would be. God that Champions League hangover is nasty. Their stand-in keeper, Ali Al-Habsi, was excellent and managed another Joe Hart showing in front of

When the players walked out onto the pitch, all I felt were goosebumps accompanied by the occasional shiver. What a brilliant night it was going to be! I could feel it. White flags graced with our cockerel waving in unison, almost communist in display. Rain and a slippery pitch were in order for what would

3 points away to Stoke is definitely money in the bank. A volatile Brittania Stadium is not the place Spurs would choose for a fixture considering the number of key players missing. We were finally able to deploy the 4-5-1 formation, 4-3-3 in attack, and I must say, we weren’t crappy at it either. The

Controversy strikes Tottenham as “washed up” Gallas is on his way to the Lane. Whichever way you look at it, the move is sure to add a little flame to the NLD fire. Players are players. You’ll hate them as long as they don someone else’s kits. They come and go making goosebumps appear across

Tottenham may be facing a bit of stick in the real world, but in the digital world, we’re part of the elite. Pro Evolution Soccer 2011 (PES) has officially announced that since the Premier League only allows them to pick and choose two teams to include in the gaming phenomenon, this year they decided that

Young Boys weren’t the little pimple-faced children I thought they would be. Turns out, they command their home field quite well. How well? A 3-1 lead at the half. That’s how Young Boys do apparently. So why didn’t anyone tell our boys? They were headless chickens, running with no where to go, lost and not

Anti-climactic or brilliant? City were dominated, no question about it. But who were the real winners of the debut match of the season? Tottenham with a delicious display of football, or City securing a point from a very tough away fixture? True, we may have not secured three points, but our display was enough to

As much as we hate to admit it, this could be one of the finest striker pairings in Premier League history. Is that a big statement to make? It’s too bad that they both gave up on such a wonderful partnership, only to end up at their “dream” clubs alone and cold. Let’s hope Robbie

Two mere weeks away from our first Premier League fixture and no signings in site. I am confident that there will be some sort of acquisition in the coming weeks. But who? The player(s) we do bring in will obviously have to have a direct impact on the squad. After all, this is Spurs highest

Not much is out there regarding our new boy Sandro, which could make him the cock-tease transfer of the year! But with a little Youtube searching here and there, a lengthy interview has surfaced which gives us pretty good insight into his character. Unfortunately, the clip uses minimal highlight reel but there is enough to

The first: signing Harry. Our second? Drumroll pweeze… Banning those damn vuvuzelas. “We are concerned that the presence of the instruments within the stadium pose unnecessary risks and could impact on the ability of all supporters to hear any emergency safety announcements… We are very proud of the fantastic atmosphere that our supporters produce organically

So he’s gone to Liverpool to ride off into the sunset with Roy Hodgson. I think they’ve done well with this pick. He will definitely be a huge asset to their attacking game, as long as he stays healthy. Now, whether they lose Torres or not is another thing. So who will join Tottenham? Who

There are reports (possibly just a massive rumor but it’s a slow news day anyways) circling the web that the spawns of New York Yankees legendary owner, George Steinbrenner, want a piece of the Tottenham pie. I don’t know how I feel about this, honestly speaking. We’ve all seen American tycoons come into the Premier

I’m sure some of you have already seen this goal from the boy Sandro. He scores the first goal. More of the same at Spurs please, Sandy… oh wait, I can’t call him that now, can I?

So Harry has committed his future to Tottenham, staying on as manager till 2013. I personally believe that this is the most crucial signing of the summer. Possibly, the most important in years. The reason being that clubs that sift through managers like garbage never really have a success story waiting at the end of the road.

Everyone can see it coming. How can’t they? Harry has practically laid out the itinerary for Levy’s approach to seal a deal. It’s a matter of funds and wages. Period. Harry has openly drooled at the prospect of bringing Cole to the Lane, obviously feeling that he is a player who could take the squad

Sitting in front of my computer, fingers resting on the home keys and ready to bang out this post, I must admit that I feel a bit intimidated. I haven’t posted anything in quite some time due to personal reasons and the fact that I was in need of a break. During this quiet –

Qualifying for the Champions League with summer right around the corner is just what the doc ordered. I will be taking time off to go to the beach and trying to replicate Christiano Ronaldo’s super duper tan… err… not. It surely has been a fantastic ride. The way Spurs pulled it together with such an

A tale of two coaches searching for victory. A tale of two squads under the floodlights dreaming of the much coveted 4th spot. One team would leave singing and dancing under the aura of glory, and what do you know: that team would be Tottenham Hotspur. Finally in the Champions League. No lasagna to stand

The Chelsea domination post. I wanted to write it last night. Instead, one image summed up my zany thoughts for the evening. After last night’s superior performance, who can dare claim that Spurs are not 4th place contenders? Tottenham have thrown the league into crazed shambles. The throne is up for grabs with Chelsea and

Too exhausted to post anything tonight! The picture says it all my friends. Chelsea domination post to follow up soon… COYS!!!!!!

Yes. 11 long years. 11 long years to take our first league win from the NLD. But we took it in epic fashion. Another epic goal in another epic NLD. Personal business. Done and executed. Boos erupted at the Lane every time a certain Judas even considered touching the ball. Scratch that. If he even

So, another loss. Not so often that we lose two in a row… rarely is it three in a row. But today, it’s a different kind of match. One that means so much more than the rest of them. The NLD. Off topic… I’d love to wipe that smug look off O’Hara’s face right now.

Looking for a hint of positivity? Look elsewhere. We were the “blunder” at Blunderland. Bent had one of his oldest wishes come true at around the 50th second. 50 seconds. That’s all it took. And at who’s expense? At the expense of our frail and uninterested squad. The team were horrible. Modric was sadly the

Who to start? Defence Captain Daws and Corluka are out with injuries. I am a bit worried about the right side of our defence today. My picks: Walker, Kaboul, Bassong, Bale Midfield Hudd is hurt again which is truly unfortunate, while Palacios’ abductor is still giving him problems. My cheeky selection: Bentley, Modric, BAE (could

LMFAO! COYS! [Source: Studs Up

Unimpressive stuff off the bat. The initial point of interest was young Walker’s start in the squad, at the tender age of 19. Not to get ahead of this match review, somewhat, but I think the boy can go home tonight with his head held up high. I wonder if the supporters will get creative

I like Jamie O’Hara. I really do. But every once in a while, a young player confident in his game, engaged to a WAG, will open his mouth with his own selfish reasons in mind. Think before you speak next time. Or tweet, for that matter. In the case of the FA Cup match win against

At this point, Spurs are looking solid (knocking on wood as I type). But do Spurs have what it takes to secure 4th? Let’s look at some key areas of strengths & concerns: Injuries If someone told me at the beginning of the season that we would reach a point where Lennon, Hudd, Woodie, Jenas, and King

Howard Webb has been named referee for our Premier League fixture, this weekend, against Blackburn Rovers. Really? Really????? Why oh why????!!!! Liverpool’s failure to nail the 3 points at Wigan last night was a bit of much needed breathing space for Spurs. But now, with this bit of news, God knows what good could possibly come out

A quick salute to two players after last night’s FA Cup match against Fulham. What they did to give us a shot at the Cup: Gomes An early save, at full stretch, to deny Zamora a goal which could have changed the outcome of the match. A point-blank header by Gera denied early in the 2nd half; quick

Cheeky! http://www.arsenal.com/matc... Spurs’ ladies felt the wrath of bad karma coming back to haunt THFC after the Wigan thrashing. Could the spell be cleared and potentially a win secured today at Craven Cottage? Praying…

When the boy’s on fire, he’s almost impossible to stop. We’ve witnessed that first hand. Think back to his hat-trick against Hull, where he seemed to possess sublime skill scoring from the most unthinkable angles. His 5 against Wigan, making him only the third player in Premier League history to score that many goals in a

Our good friend, Michael Lacquiere, over at “All Action, No Plot” has been working for quite some time now on a Spurs publication titled “Spurs’ Cult Heroes”! The book tells the tales of the club’s “20 greatest fans’ icons and discovers the true stories about exactly what double-winning Dave Mackay said to Billy Bremner whilst

The injury list continues to pile up at Tottenham and it’s as discomforting to me as a massive hemorrhoid after some spicy Thai food. Beating Everton last night was a delight to watch, simply because our Eastern European family members (3 Croats and a Russian) seemed to possess a certain mojo beyond anyone else’s comprehension

“TAKE THAT HARRY!” You know that was the first thought that crossed Pav’s mind when he scored! He was proving a point to everyone in the DW Stadium last night: opponents, supporters, teammates, and most of all: Harry! The relationship has been a rocky one from the start. Pav’s inability to come to grips with life in

Update: just visited AANP and saw that he also put together a 9-point wish list… I know we are addressing the matter in two very different ways but his is probably better lol Straight to the point post here everyone. 10 things that could go wrong today: Sweet revenge: It’s no secret that Wigan were humiliated at

Once again, I have managed to let my disappointment with Tottenham get in the way of cranking out consistent blog posts. Can you blame me? In my eyes, we have been performing up to the standards of a lower side, and I don’t mean top 10. Harsh? Not at all. Especially when you know that

A bit of a contradiction, but this was a fantastic match to watch. It ended in an unfortunate draw for a Tottenham side which assumed the Tony Soprano role of bossing the opposition around. The opposition here being a quality Aston Villa. The 1st half was intense right from the start. Villa’s counter-attacking was constantly met

The short-lived January window officially came to a close the other night with a few surprises, twists and turns. It wasn’t the usual erratic Tottenham we’ve all grwon to love, but it was filled with the ever-redundant Harry vs. Pav quotes constantly gracing Newsnow. Snooze. So we all know that Gudjohnsen and Kaboul have arrived. The

Before the match, a friend of mine asked me “which Tottenham do you think will show at Birmingham today”? I replied, the “Everton” Tottenham. You know, the Tottenham that comfortably lead a match by two goals and then decide they’ve had enough and should just sit deep in their half. The “upset special” Tottenham. I

I’m back in commission. The last few fixtures and disappointing results have left me in a bit of a slump. More than a bit. I just can’t seam to deal with the Tottenham shenanigans gracefully. But in the end, I have myself to blame for that. Harry’s tactics (or lack thereof) and the squad’s bi-polar

I don’t understand it. Let me rephrase that. I don’t want to understand it. How many times will we let the same old cliché have its way with us? The fact that we cannot beat teams like Hull, Stoke and Wolves is quite annoying to be honest. How we are aiming for a top 4 spot

The canceled Liverpool match stained my week with a bit of poo, so I decided to take a break from Spurs blogging all together. But then thanks to TOMM, Alan got me thinking again. Defoe and Crouch are doing well together. Without them, would Keane and Pav work in their place? Fill in their shoes?

Should we? Fresh injuries to Lennon and BAE will not make our voyage into the second half of the season any brighter. We will definitely be missing the sheer pace of both these players when we visit Liverpool. A team which we badly embarrassed on our home ground, bruised and battered, left limping not knowing what

Now that 2010 has arrived, one tends to sit back and reflect on 2009 and see what positives he / she could build on to make the new year a better one. I’ve already posted on the looking back bit, but there is a key factor that will determine our success in the coming months. It popped

Been off-line (sort of) for the last couple of days and decided to wait a few days before commenting on how we did in our past two matches, and where we stand with the new year only a few days away. Fulham @ Craven Cottage A match which I was truly tense over. Fulham had just come

I’m cutting straight to the chase here, but this was a manager’s game won purely on tactics. Is it just me or is Harry getting comfortable with early substitutions? Tactical choices. I was delighted to see Keane and Jenas come on. Yes, I said it. Not something you hear often, but I said it. Each added
