Norwich v Spurs

[Yid-ol]

Norwich City: Marshall, Otsemobor, Bertrand, Clingan, Omozusi, Stefanovic, Croft, Fortheringham, Cureton, Hoolahan, Pattison. Subs: Russell, Nelson, Chadwick, Shackell, Martin, Renton, Eagle, Smith, Daley.

Spurs: Gomes, Gunter, Gilberto, King, Dawson, O'Hara, Jenas, Zokora, dos Santos, Modric, Bent. Subs: Jansson, Bale, Huddlestone, Assou-Ekotto, Lennon, Taarabt, Berbatov

Good to see King playing :dance: but strange that we only have Bent on for strikers, unless Dos santos is playing just off him :shrug: good to see Modric starting also, might give the midfield some creativity for once!

Berbatov is in the dugout, Gus hasn't mentioned an injury, just said it's the Manager's decision not to include him

 

[nidge]

Setanta have said Berbatov isn't going to play tonight.

Setanta is saying that Modric will be playing off Bent

1-0 Dos Santos

goooooooooooooooooooal dos santos....................................

Oh god poor old Ledley - what a howler - but as they say, best to get these things over and done with in pre season. I think I might get Dos Santos on my shirt this season - he looks brilliant playing off Bent and linking well with Modric

 

[KentuckyYid]

1-1

King mistake lets Cureton in.

 

[Midostouch]

Not a lucky day for our CBs - Dawson off in a bloody injury. Zokora will fill in for him and probably do well. I thought Daws was looking okay up until then.

 

[voodoo]

are hutton and woodgate injured?

 

[Midostouch]

2 - 1 - lovely clinical finish from Darren Bent but also a nice determined assist from Jamie O'Hara - looking good!

 

[NickHSpurs]

Who's getting Gio on their shirt then :-D

are hutton and woodgate injured?

I don't know but apparantly if anyone isn't in the squad today it means they're leaving (according to Setanta anyway :roll. They did a really crass bit before the game where they blew up all the players who'd left or who might leave (including Bent).

Sad to say I actually found it quite therapeutic when they did it to Robbie!

By the way did Robofan ever locate Steed and do we know if he might stay?

 

[Midostouch]

3 - 1 with a flying header from Bent after good cross from Bennie. Even better - Bale is now on and we look pretty much in control with half an hour to go.

This whole episode could be quite positive for Bent - just as a certain revolting Arse player flourished once Terry Henry slung his hook.

 

[Midostouch]

Lennon is looking nifty too!

 

[PT]

Lennon is continuing his skinning of full backs. Good thing though is his end game has improved. His crossing has looked excellent against Hercules and Norwich.

 

[jimmy-jojo]

That's a seriously young side out in the 2nd half...the future is looking good!

 

[Midostouch]

4 - 1 and Darren has a well deserved hat trick after more beautiful work from J2S. Suddenly feeling rather better! My god 4 for Darren 5 -1. YES!!!
