Tottenham Hotspur - Carling Cup Winners 2008

Sunday, February 24th, 2008

Typical, we thrash Arsenal and every goal we scored did’nt count according to Wenger, we totally outplay Chelsea and Grant reckons Chelsea were the better side.  What game was he watching? Bad losers the pair of them. Even at the end they wanted the rules changed to suit them, the game is over when the time is up, not when play breaks down.

Spurs were all over Chelsea at the start, we hit the bar after 9 mins and Carvalho should have been sent off for an elbow on Jenas after 35.

After Drogba scored from a free kick, they tried to play boring football for a 1-0 win, they got what they deserved, nothing.

Bridge was clearly seen bringing hand to ball from the replay view the linesman, or is it still assistant referee, had. Just look at what it meant to Berbatov when he tucked away the penalty.  Spurs wanted it more than Chelsea.

Zakora, who had a wonderful game, should have wrapped it up after 79 minutes but Man of the Match Woodgate scores after 4 minutes of extra time.

We had a Keeper and defence that had not played together before, Robinson in only his second game back, a right back playing at left back, Hutton playing only his third game since signing from Rangers, Woodgate playing only his fourth and King back after 6 games out.

Can we hold out, yes we can, well done boys, Carling Cup Winners 2008, European football secured for next year.  Now for the UEFA Cup.

Hello world!

Welcome to the new Tottenham Memorabilia blog, the easy way for you to keep up our take on the news surrounding the world’s greatest club, Tottenham Hotspur FC.

Let me draw your attention to a nice little webpage devoted to Jermaine Jenas at www.hubpages.com/Jermain-Jenas our industrious midfielder.

So we have two goalkeepers who drop clangers. Radek Cerny, when I have watched him play, seems to have no spring in his legs. He dosen’t dive very far to his right or left and that causes me concern. He has looked safe in the air and then makes the most elementary mistake which was solely down to concentration.

Robinson was a fine goalkeeper until losing confidence, if that can be repaired then he will be a fine stopper again.

Against Slavia Prague Spurs didn’t even try, they should have killed that game 4-0 by half time and then started preparing for the Carling Cup Final. As it is they can not rest and have to do a job 3 days before facing Chelsea, not ideal.
