"The biggest Derby of the season returns...."

...and Spurs are gonna come out the victors.

I actually can't think of a better time to be playing Arsenal, off the back of two 'mares for them, and hopefully, not in full swing.

Granted, out bys aren't having the best run ever, but we're always up for this game. Our older players like King and Keane should get the younger lads gee'd up and players like Robbo are saying they can already sense the importance that this game has for the club and the fans. Always a good sign when your players are psyched up.

Edman is back, hopefully, which should firm up our defence a tad. I am also led to believe that Redknapp should be back, which is a great boost to the team.

Plus, Defoe is amazing, so we shouldn't have any problems :p

2-1 Spurs I reckon. Anyone else?

P.S. sorry if that post was rambled, I need to eat dinner and my hands are freezing, brr

P.P.S. Keller on loan to Southampton, good move

Sounds like a great game.

Can't wait to see it on MotD tonight.

What were really need to do now is:

Get rid of Cygan he doesn't give confidence to our defence at all.

Practice set piece defending.

Get someone to cover our defence Gilberto style.

Give Van Persie a go Bergkamp has been average for a while... Henry was alright very bad pass for Sp*rs 4th goal but we if Cygan didn't tuck into Toure who knows? Maybe Sol would of intercepted the ball and cleared it? Yet Henry did get a goal and set up Pires for our 5th.
Reyes wasn't quite at his best either and Freddie was hard working scored a goal but wasn't spectacular really, maybe its time we tried Freddie on the left and Pennant on the right?

Yeh you probably deserved the win in the end, but we played well, I', happy enough. Wasn't really expecting a win, so 5-4 is a hell of a lot better than something like 3-0.

Exciting game to watch too

Our defending wasn't so brilliant either SOMEONE should of tackled Defoe for his goal, our set piece defending was awful (the Cygan effect?) and why the hell Cygan decided to tuck into Toure and watch the ball instead of Kanoute I don't know.

BUT at least we managed to score a couple today.

Now try telling me that's not the best derby you'll see this season....

It's wasn't bleedin' King's fault, was fecking Naybet, gave it away too many times.

Defoe = genius

worst defending i seen in a long time.

Shocking. shouts for Ledley King to be first choice for England should stop here! Although perhaps Robinson could have saved a few of them? Went straight under him.

My god. Spurs need to learn to defend.

Get in!

United. :)
