Happy St. Totteringham's Day

Here's a gem from the spurs facebook page, which is currently getting trolled hard by Gooners :lol:
Plastic gooner's go away! You represent nothing from Woolwich or Islington, any true gooner would be ashamed to be associated with you. If the FA wasn't corrupt 3 of your 7 penalties awarded wouldn't have happened and your offside goals wouldn't have counted! (-9 points) At the same time Everton would be 7 points better off for good goals not given, Spurs would be 6 points better off (and that's without penalties not given, that's just from good goals wrongly disallowed) and so would Liverpool Meaning in a fair league you'd have been 7th.

They fucking left out the "nah-ni-nah-ni-nah-nah" bit. :D

They should get that whole paragraph printed on a big sign and hang it in the players' tunnel at the Drain a la the Mouser's "this is Anfield" sign. Never before has one paragraph so summed up an entire club so succinctly. 8)

Electric companies have announced that reports of a huge shift of power over the weekend in North London turned out to be another false alarm.

Genuine pants-wetting material. Echoing most Spurs' fans views that Spurs are clearly a much better team before having to sheepishly concede that Arsenal have still finished above them yet again.

I think the two squads are pretty similarly matched, as is borne out by the league positions over the last two seasons. If Arry wants to talk up the likes of Livermore and Carroll then so be it, makes himself look a mug. Bale is the top-drawer stand out player in the two sides, with Cazorla also a genuinely fantastic player and Wilshere also if he can manage to get his fitness back. I also think that Lloris is an excellent player and that Arteta and Dembele are reliably consistent (although not necessarily more talented) than the rest. Other than that the squads are stacked full of fillers whose great displays are sadly too few and far between.

If we did go out and buy 2-3 quality players over the summer we'd pull well away from them - unfortunately the chances of that happening are fairly remote.

I don't see how they have a better squad than us. What a load of utter bollocks.

Ok, in goal they maybe marginally better, but our depth and quality in central defence with Merts, Kos and TV is something they can only dream of. Also at left back both Gibbs and Monreal piss all over that Ekuto bloke. Same for right back, I wouldn't have Kyle Walker at right back ahead of Sagna or even Jenko.

Their midfield is bang average with the exception of Dembele. All of Arteta, Jack and even Diaby when fit would walk into their midfield. Our attacking midfield options in Cazorla and Rosicky put theirs (Sigurdsson and Dempsey?) to shame.

Outwide and upfront sure the chimp has no competition, but Feo pisses all over Lennon. Ox is picked ahead of that little twat in the England squad too. Giroud and Podolski are better than Adebayor and Defoe based on this season's stats.

So there Redknob you twitching bastard.

I was thinking about this last night - how may of their players woudl get in our team?

In my opinion four of theirs would start in a combined team:

Lloris over Szczesny.

Vertonghen over Mertesacker.

Sandro (when fit) over Arteta.

Bale over Podolski.

Dembele, Dempsey, Lennon and maybe Defoe on the bench.
Siggurdson and Holtby would not make the bench but would play if others were injured.

I know it's all about personal opinions but I'd disagree with Sandro over Arteta. There's not a huge gulf in class between them or anything, but I'd take Arteta as probably the more skilfull player and deffo the more intelligent footballer. Also less stupidly hotheaded and rash than Sandro.

Who's playing up front Quartz? Think I'd take Defoe over Giroud personally. Strange one at right-back because Sagna is head and shoulder above Walker but I'm reticent to pick Sagna over anybody the way he's played the last few months, but Walker is incapable of defending and actually apart from being very fast is pretty cack going forward too.

Used to think Dawson was actually a good centre-half and a future England regular but since he had that long-term lay-off he's struggled for form (and a place in the team) - if Kaboul was fit he wouldn't have been first choice.

Is this the only way Spurs can qualify for the Champions League? Europa League winners to be awarded spot in Euro elite.

UEFA will announce on Friday that the winners of the Europa League will be awarded a place in the Champions League from 2015.

The move is designed to boost the profile of European football's second-rate tournament which was won by Chelsea earlier this month.
