I wonder (seriously) if the impending arrival of Woodgate went through Dawson's mind as he trudged off on Sunday ?
Is Woodgate fit at the moment ?

Which is fair enough.
He hasn't developed, and for most of this season, until the last few games, he's been a liability—but my biggest gripe isn't the errors, it's been that he hasn't stepped up and taken command when paired with Kaboul. I'm not sure how good Kaboul's English is, and I'd guess that Dawson's French is non-existent, but it should be possible to communicate that your partner's primary job is to stay back, hold the line and defend. Getting forward and whacking in a couple of goals is a bonus, but you get your arse back. Last season people were suggesting that Dawson was captain material. Well, no, he isn't.
I don't have a problem with B-C saying that Dawson doesn't cut the mustard at top level, because he was saying that two years ago. But how many of those who are bashing him now took the opposite view?
Whenever I read 'x player is shit' I really despair
these are some who have incurred this brilliant piece of analysis - Daws 100+ games for spurs and forest - England U 21 & full squad member - JJ - England international - 100+ games for Spurs & Toon - Lee korean interantional - 100+ games for Spurs & PSV
I mean really - how ridiculous - if you went up to a Div 3 player and called him shit - apart from obvious personal danger you're probably talking nonsense - becausee that player has probably sweated for years and outperformed so many other players to get where he is - but a player regualrly playing in one of the best leagues in the world for a club that is certainly one of the top 10 in that league, a player with international honours - 'shit' - really
...and when Kaboul has get used to the Premiership he'll be the backup and push for the starting xl. He's got a shitload more of skills than Dawson, but he was thrown into the Premiership without no really backing and got hurt by that but he''ll be great for us.Come on, hasn't it always been obvious that without Ledley, Dawson has huge defensive weaknesses? What's the news here? He's a good back up as long as he has a postionally better defender next 2 him..
I'm shit.
Seriously, my team lost 9-1 at the weekend..
