Bolton v Tottenham – Match Preview

Friday, January 30th, 2009

On the back of possibly Tottenham’s best performance of the season, Harry Redknapp’s side travel to the Reebok Stadium to face a Bolton side, still reeling over the loss of Kevin Nolan to Newcastle. Spurs moved up to 13th after their recent 3-1 victory over Stoke, three points out of the bottom three, and level [...]

Road to Carling Cup Final 2009

Tuesday, January 27th, 2009

With Tottenham recently securing a place in the Carling Cup semi-final for the second successive season, and the trip to Wembley that accompanies it, I thought now would be a good time to review the club’s “road to Wembley”.
Newcastle – won 2-1
In a very poor start to the season, the cup competitions were the only [...]

Double Signing Announced

Monday, January 26th, 2009

After an eventful few days at White Hart Lane, Tottenham have announced the signings of Carlo Cudicini and Pascal Chimbonda.
Cudicini, I have no doubt, will prove an astute signing, after the Italian signed on a free transfer following the departure of Cesar Sanchez. The 35-year-old is second in Chelsea’s all-time clean sheets record, and will [...]

Lady Luck favours Spurs

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

 
Before the game, you could get silly odds on Burnley winning the Semi Final cup tie and progressing to the final. Up until the 118th minute, it looked as though Burnley were a dead set to progress to the final, but Football is a cruel game….
On a cold night at turfmoore, Burnley where ready to take on Premiership [...]

Injury Updates

Monday, January 19th, 2009

Last night’s match against Portsmouth brought more than some fantastic end-to-end football, as Roman Pavlyuchenko and Ledley King both had to be withdrawn due to injury.
Roman had to be stretchered off early in the first half, but it has been confirmed that he suffered an impact injury, rather than a twist. The injury is only [...]

Defoe saves Spurs from defeat

Sunday, January 18th, 2009

 

David Nugent seemed to set Portsmouth on there way to victory when he slotted home just before the hour, but his effort was cancelled out by a Defoe strike just 10 minutes later.
The game started very unlike any other relegation scrap, everyone in the stadium expected these two sides to be cautious, not wanting to [...]

PSG Chase Giovani?

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

19-year-old Mexican Giovani Dos Santos, although he has been riddled with injury this season, has played far too few games this campaign for a player of his quality. And Harry Redknapp, it seems, has made the winger available for transfer.

He played 28 times for Barcelona last season, often being picked ahead of Ronaldinho as the two [...]

Tottenham v Portsmouth – Match Preview

Saturday, January 17th, 2009

In the second meeting between the two sides this season, both Harry Redknapp and Jermain Defoe face their former clubs, when Tottenham host Portsmouth on Sunday. After losing consecutive Premiership matches against West Brom and Wigan, Spurs need to get back on form, and that starts at White Hart Lane. Don’t expect any 3-2-3-2 formations [...]

Palacios Deal Close

Friday, January 16th, 2009

Just days after admitting defeat in his attempts to sign Stewart Downing, it seems Spurs gaffer Harry Redknapp is on the verge of making Wilson Palacios his second acquisition of the window. A deal has now been agreed between the two clubs, after Wigan rejected Spurs’ initial bid in the region of £1 million. But [...]
