OTF

No it doesn't. Watching in a pub with mates and a few drinks really isn't conducive to proper analysis. At the ground you also get a different perspective which allows a wider appreciation of players work rate, movement and positioning off the ball, but doesn't give you the closer lounge room TV view (poor streams don't count on this front) where you can better appreciate skill, technique and the like. Having watched plenty of games of football in each circumstance I can say with complete confidence that I can in general better appraise a players performance if I'm watching a game with no distractions. The fact that games are on for me late at night/early in the morning means that generally the only distraction I have is posting my comments on here.

Was out of the side because he's been out of form, nothin suspicious or tellig from that. In the past stints out have helped to bring some of the best performances out of him. Anyone wishing for anything else for whatever ulterior motive is plainly a cunt.

Interesting. Glad we weren't paying Barton anything whilst he was in prison. Wish Alan Smith had taken a stance about something years prior.

Slightly inflammatory, but: Given this is Spurs most successful start to a Premier League season ever, how disappointing is it that you're in fourth place 5 points behind your biggest rival? Less so: Are you surprised at how few goals you have conceded? Do you think your success will continue to be based around an excellent defensive record, or are you expecting the goals to start flowing once the team gels?

Football genius at work. Sickening to read, makes us much less desirable and therefore will prolong the period of suffering and downturn.

Must have been some storm.

If Taylor was to have a consistent run of games he might eliminate some of the ridiculous aspects from his game. However it's because of those aspects and a poor injury record that he's never had a good long consistent run and there absolutely no reason to believe that that will change at this late stage of his career. Therefore the first choice defensive pairing going forward should be M'Biwa and Coloccini. For all his shortcomings through his pure height Williamson's absense will be felt.

What has he said?

Ah, gotcha.

Thought you were going to say you knew there for a moment.

Remy really stepped up his involvement in the second half also.

They did.

"I played the shirt off your back". Being the dolt that he is, Terry took it literally.

Remy for Torres for sure.

Yep. Debuchy MOTM for me.

A reminder of what is so good about this game, and occassionally this team.

Too fast for the ball tbh

Until that counter where he lost the ball with no defender on him!

Regretting the media ban now?

Pardew has made Mourinho look positively Pardewesque. Good work in the lead up from Obertan, and more-so Anita who has been excellent since coming on.

Remy!!!!! Game set match!!!!

Lovely chest on from Cisse and good ball into the box from Sissoko.

Obertan!

That's was effing close. Wonderful block Krul, but he was immediately outdone by Debuchy with a great body block.

Glad you're not the manager.
