Aaron Lennon trains with youth team as Tottenham exit draws closer

Everton will surely buy him if they sell stones to Chelsea.

A good laugh and not to be taken serious. Life is too short to be reacting to something that happened years ago. He must be looking for a bit of publicity, I'm guessing.

Can't post a link from phone but if you Google Zakora - kick racism out of football you should find a video of Zakora and his Turkish team mates kicking lumps out of some lad who racially abused Zakora and wasn't punished by the Turkish f.a. so the next time the two teams meet the lads took justice into their own hands.

Spurs curse has vanished now on Pulinho. Soldado scored on his debut as well.

Watched brief highlights of Sunderland v City. Yedlin set up there solitary goal, looked good going forward. Good enough to claim a starting place.

Anybody still disappointed that we didn't give Dim Tim more of a chance?

We are finding it a tad hard to believe that a Premier League manager’s plan against Championship opposition was to let them think they were much, much better…

We expected manager Tim Sherwood – after being widely criticised for his bizarre substitutions against Crystal Palace and Leicester – to soak up the applause for making positive changes while acknowledging that the first half was truly awful. ‘I fixed it’ should have been the proud boast, and we would have said ‘fair play; he fixed it’.

But no. ‘I planned it’ was the proud boast. Yorke’s distraught face was an absolute picture as Sherwood explained that he had planned to be so utterly terrible in the first half in order to lull Birmingham into a false sense of security. Apparently his plan at home against a Championship side in a derby game was an extended version of rope-a-dope.

“The plan worked,” said Sherwood with a straight face. “We went two different ways. First half, we looked to stretch them out, go very direct.

Rodgers sacked by Liverpool

I hope they don't get Carlos A and I also think they will either get De Boer or Klopp. Both of them will be a big gamble like AVB.

I think he is the next one to be sacked. Totally out of depth but, I love his nick name Tactics Tim .

Mark Lawrenson:

I know some will point to the splurge from Tottenham after they sold Gareth Bale last summer as cause for concern but Liverpool’s situation is different.

We’ve signed four so far and yes seven or eight in total will change the dynamic of the dressing room so that is something to be wary about.

But Spurs just went on a spending spree.

There was no definitive plan, no idea of who was going to play in what a position and they just signed players to try and replace Bale.

Liverpool are different.

Brendan has implemented a definitive style of play and the squad was so good last year that he won’t sign players for the sake of it.

Every single player brought in will have an assigned role and there is still plenty of time for Brendan to get the right players for the Reds.

Pool should go for Big Sam Allerdice.:cool:

Worst possible time for Klopp to sign for Liverpool. They'll have new manager syndrome against us next week.

I don't agree, I'd rather play them now. He'll have very little time to work with them.

I'm glad it's not Rodgers, his record against us was very good.

Paul Merson:

"They should be top of the league. They went to Old Trafford and they should have got a point. They were 2-0 up against Stoke City, and they threw that away.

“They should have beaten Everton at home and they should have beaten Swansea away.

“You put all those points together, and I think they are in a false position. I’ve been impressed with Tottenham, and that’s coming from me. I think they’ve been bang unlucky.”

I think it makes perfect sense.

Nice to hear his compliments, but he's wrong. We are where we deserve to be.

Football is a 90 minute game, if we can't see out a 2-0 lead then we don't deserve to get the win.

If we have FOUR times as many shots on goal as Man United and can't score, then we don't deserve to get anything from that game.

I'm not being negative, I'm generally a very positive/optimistic Spurs fan. I just don't care too much for the hypothetical. Let's stay positive but realistic.

This one bites the dust. Now he will become a pundit (IMO his Premiership managerial career is over) and will slag us for the rest of his life.
