Who was the guy that debuted off the bench against West Ham and got the foul which led to Berbatov equalising?

[Liam]

I must say, even though you comfortably got through, I'm a bit surprised that you let 4 goals in against a very, very poor Braga side.

Taarabt? I don't know anything about him other than we bought him in January :/

That reminds me, where did Edgar Davids go? I heard he was linked with Ajax and FC Dallas but can't remember hearing anything about him actually signing for someone.

Why are you surprised? We've been conceding goals all over the place recently. It just doesn't really matter if you're scoring as much as we are

[Guest Ringu]

Davids is at Ajax. Taarabt is still on loan, and of the very little I saw of him in France, he was quite good in the run and dribble mold. He was wanted by Arsenal and Chelsea but chose to come to Spurs because Jol guaranteed him first team football, though he's yet to make more than one appearance.

For some reason I've ONLY JUST realised that we've won all eight UEFA Cup games this season. Stupid me.

[Guest Ringu]

Ugh, Sevilla. Would have rather, you know, not faced them at all >_>

Don't get me wrong, they're definitely beatable, but it's the hardest draw we could have made at this point. Kanoute's the top striker in La Liga (lol, I know, right?) and their defense rarely concedes as of late.

Not easy to say the least, but I still believe we'll sneak it.

[Buford Ripley]

Just make sure Dani Alves doesn't cross the ball and you'll be fine. >_>

[Guest Ringu]

Dani Alves is like a Roberto Carlos right back, while he's awesome at going forward, I'll be damned if his defending isn't subpar. If anything, we'll go in through the right >_>

Yeah, I know you are leaking goals, but the last games it happened were a West Ham side who made many chances and were scrapping for thier Premiership survival, and Chelsea, who are, well, Chelsea. Braga practically had 4 chances over 2 games and scored 4, was just surprising when you saw how poor they looked for the majority of both games.

[JimbobJoylove]

Spurs have a serious problem in defence, despite their great attacking play. It'll be interesting to see how they get on against Sevilla, the first true test for them in the Uefa.

[The Future]

Have to say...that was a sweet cross by Chimbonda leading up to that goal.

[therockbox]

Robinson's just scored.

[Buford Ripley]

Second in his senior career that.

[The Future]

I missed it, did he come up for a corner or take a penalty or what?

[therockbox]

Massive goal kick, bounce took it over Foster.

[Buford Ripley]

Booted from 70 yards and the bounce caught out Foster. Goal.

[Lineker]

ENGLAND'S! #1! ENGLAND'S ENGLAND'S #1!

Was it a a fuckup by Foster... or just pure talent?

[TheArsenal]

I'm pleased he scored.......but it was Spurs' TWENTIETH league game WITHOUT a clean sheet. Shocking.

[JimbobJoylove]

Also comical was the way Spurs conceded their goal.

[Guest Ant]

Man Spurs are REALLY missing King.

When he comes back him Rocha and Dawson will be a proverbial rock
