I recently bought two tickets on the ticket exchange for the Arsenal game. One was under my account and I ordered another for a friend under his account. I didn't know that his account/membership is 'inactive' but I'm assuming the tickets would be loaded onto our respective cards and thus he...
Yeah I think that's key. Failing to get CL has pretty much meant losing a star player but I can see these two (and Vertonghen) sticking around and if we're very close to top 4 with such a young and inexperienced side then hopefully they'll see that next season's potential ceiling is quite high.
Since the 2009/10 season, which was easily my favourite season as a Spurs fan (Yes, I'm young!!), I've always been quite fixated on finishing in the top 4 again and getting that ever elusive CL spot. It may have been a short term attitude but I always felt that the other teams weren't that good...
All so different in such a small space of time. Now the current team is full of young players, many of whom are English and/or from the academy. Looking forward to watching the team grow and it goes to show how much difference desire and giving a shit makes.
With regards to the bolded part, I think there are a few things worth noting.
1.) Pochettino took over a bottom half PL team midway through a season, and thus had a much lower starting point in terms of quality compared to AVB, and even at their best the Southampton squad did not have as much...
Awesome talent. Hard to believe he's only 19 years old. Sherwood definitely deserves a lot of credit for bringing him into the first team fold. Him and Capoue look good as a double pivot.
"Im going for £30m, kyle naughton and Michael dawson (mp apparently does not rate him)"
This would make the total value of the deal about £10m which would be a bargain for us
Didn't we use that christmas tree formation to good effect under Redknapp a little bit in the 11/12 season when Lennon was injured or when people weren't telling Redknapp to use 442. I seem to remember seeing the team line up:
Friedel
Walker Kaboul King Ekotto
Sandro Modric Parker
VDV Bale...
I'm quite sure that he did during that period in 09/10. If I remember correctly he had 11 assists in the league before the long term injury (which he sustained just after the busy Christmas period I think). I might be wrong as that seems like too high a figure for Lennon but I thought he had 11...
