Eddie VukovicGrow a Pair, Spurs! (and Someone Give Rafa a Kick in 'em)
Another injury-time equaliser... can you believe it?
According to a recent scientific report based on criteria like last-minute goals, near-misses in big games and things like that, Spurs fans officially have the most stressful existence of all (with Hammers fans just behind them, unsurprisimgly).
If I were a fan, I would be wondering just when these guys are going to grow a set of bo**ocks, and learn to hold on to a lead. Since Jol came to the club they have only managed one win over 'Big 4' opponents (Chelsea). Yet they usually give the big boys a hell of a game... and then ultimately lose (both Arsenal league games last year, Man U away two years ago, Chelsea last year etc. etc.).
Of course they are still young. But it seems like they are in serious need of a bit of steel down the middle. Jovial giants like Dawson and Tom Huddlestone just don't show the requisite meanness. Particularly for the long journeys up North, where teams like Sunderland and Blackburn relish roughing-up flash buggers from the capital.
Meanwhile, if Liverpool could just get someone to take the blinkers off their manager, they'd probably win the league. Stop this rotation nonsense, Rafa. And get your priorities straight: Liverpool fans were brought up on winning the league, and it's getting on towards twenty years since they did so. Their tradition in the European Cup is probably an even greater source of pride, but you ask any fan whether they'd rather win the European Cup or the Premier League this year, and the majority would take the league, every time.
This result was simply not good enough for them. Spurs are generally hopeless when they have to travel North, and while they were good in the second half, Liverpool conversely were awful. They simply do not have the squad to compete on all fronts (forwards apart), so the manager has to decide on priorities.
Wake up Rafa. Crouchy, go over and give him a slap. It's not like you've got anything else to Your text goes hereYour text goes heredo these days...
