Blue Armour

Tbf...we did beat Everton twice this season already

Listen buddy, I think you are making a mistake here. Hardly anyone's disrespecting Benfica. We're all just excited because we have an away goal, and have the prospect of facing a big team in the next round. We know the tie is far from over. So chill...

Malouda played pretty well against Leicester...will be interesting to see if he can replicate that form.

Let's hope the 08/09 will be followed by another 09/10

There's also Sturridge...

Why did they name a football cub Tottenham hotspurs and not Tottenham FC? Because people would take it to be a fast food joint! Bit lame, I know...

I was hoping to see Lukaku and Drogba upfront together at least once, just for the sake of having two man-mountains for the opposition to deal with...shame its not going to happen...

Even more ridiculous considering they beat us 3-1 at the bridge...time for payback.

I agree that Torres should start regularly, but I don't think that means Drogba should be laid to rest just yet. El nino still hasn't convinced me that he WON'T go into another goal-scoring drought. Right now, it has only been two games since he has scored so its a non-issue. Of course, even if he doesn't score and yet still manages to regularly assist people like Kalou or Sturridge, I wouldn't mind.

Lol..yeah...It only takes a couple of games for people to change their minds here..

Simple. His arm was never supposed to be in the way. That's why we see Ivanovic and Luiz tie their hands behind their backs when blocking a shot or cross. That being said, it was a 50-50 and would have been harsh were it given

Lol...I wouldn't mind either if that guaranteed results for us...sooner or later the main striker has to score..its only been 2.5 games since he has scored so I won't be complaining yet.

Like I said after the city game, I hate the way he positions himself. You're more likely to find Ramires or Sturridge in the box to collect the cross rather than Torres. But as long as he can still help out the team, I'm not going to complain.

RDM is hoping the FA can get the dates changed...the game comes barely 2 days before a potential semifinal CL clash. Man utd managed the get their dates changed on a similar occasion in 1999, any chance we'll get similar treatment?

....still a lousy picture As a side note, its funny how there are two no. 11's walking dejectedly away from the camera....

Not necessarily...he plays really well against certain types of opposition...namely in games that don't require much urgency

That is one lousy matchday picture...

I hope he does not get rotated in the coming fixtures just for the sake of rotation...He's still in his 20's...he should play more to keep this form going. Lamps and Didier are the ones that should start only alternate games.

Should NOT start the next game...he seems to be going the way of Malouda after playing so many minutes

Cech...always had a feeling we might score sooner or later, but the real bonus was a clean sheet for which this guy played no small part..

Kalou <3 Torres

^agree with the posts above..Sturridge and Lampard could be useful subs in the second half...and of course, there's Drogba as well.

Ashley Cole and Mikel have played really well so far...Hopefully someone up front can score and we can settle this in one leg itself...it could be crucial in light of the fixture congestion

:lol2:

Lol..like he said, we HAD the squad, where players like Anelka and Benayoun could come off the bench to make top 3. Now we don't have them, and their potential replacements in the form of Kakuta, McEachran and DeBruyne are out on loan....
