  1. If he's so good why weren't clubs in Europe queuing up for him? Why did he go to the MLS?
  2. What?! Can you please stop lying. Every time I go to The Bridge Torres is the least hard working player on the pitch.
  3. That's the thing though, they don't trust him. I'm tired of Torres and his confidence issues, he's not a little boy. If a CL all or nothing knockout game won't motivate him to begin with then God help us. I really hope Eto'o is fit for this.
  4. That's bizarre, I don't know how you can even think of it in that way. Fernando isn't that important to us, there is no way we're going to side step both Lampard and Hazard just because Torres needs a goal. A penalty goal is really not going to suddenly make him start going on a goal spree, you're dreaming.
  5. I think Lloris is one of, if not the best keeper in the world behind Neuer at coming off his line and rushing, it's what he does. It's one of his strengths. It's valuable in some systems i.e. Bayern's or Barca's game. No, he really isn't. He's having a bad year because Tottenham in general are a joke this season but that doesn't mean he's bad.
  6. Really good today. Was against this signing from the start (but I never criticised him like some ridiculously did after a few minutes he had for us) because I thought he wouldn't offer us much this season but he's proving me wrong so far, growing really quickly in confidence. He's only 21, his development over the next 2 seasons is vital. Could be a diamond in the rough for us ATM.
  7. IMO we could perhaps do with another winger.
  8. Is Ashley playing in the pivot lol?
  9. Well, blame the way we set up going for that.
  10. He's not a goal scorer, or a stats player. Look at his stats over his career.
  11. My point is obviously insinuating the assumption that we win all of our remaining games...
  12. The league isn't over at all. Are people really assuming that Liverpool and City are going to win all of the rest of their games? Football isn't like that.
  13. We definitely overpaid by about £10m for him, but at the same time our attacking system is marginalising him in the final third. He's never been a "stats" player anyway, just look at his stats at Shakhtar or his stats in Brazil. His role in attack is the assist before the assist.
  14. Lloris being bad this season has more to do with Tottenham's tactics and general performances. He's kept the score down for them plenty of times this season. Deserves to be at a better club, really rate him.
