Tottenham vs West ham 25/11 pre/post match talk

[Colm]

Another game for us on sunday, with us without an away win all season a point would be a good point against West Ham who are normally good at home this season. A point would another small step to rebuilding me thinks.

[Hauler]

I think that we need all 3 cause we did set the bar pretty high and I would hate to see us regress so Im going to set it high and say three points or we failed. I say this cause with all the rumors about getting Casillas and Villa we better start winning games to justify some of that heavy spending.

[Phillyspur]

Official site says Malbranque and Kaboul are struggling to be fit. Without Kaboul I can see us putting Chimbo back in the middle and using Staltieri at RB. Stalts will have happy memories of last year :D. Malbranque missing would be less critical, as long as Jenas puts in another good creative performance. Another chance for Boateng?

On their side, Bellamy and Bowyer are both out but Noble could be back. Given their injury list it is a winnable game, so go for it I say. I can't see Ramos being happy with just a point.

hauler honestly do you have half a brain? we need wins because we need POINTS!!! we dont need wins to justify paper bollocks of transfers that ARENT going to happen.

blimey if you read we were in for ronaldinho and kaka would you believe it?

we need all three points so we can keep climbing up the table to get back to where we need to be

[sendorange]

I'm confident, still a lot of improving to be done but good signs in the Wigan game and the Spammers are nothing special. The first real testing game of the Ramos era though.

[LedleybetterthanSol]

COYS I'd take a draw though.

[ambiguous_logic]

I have a good feeling about this game, i think we will win 2-1 and Berbatov will get them both

you sir could take a lesson from Colm in how to respond to a post you do not necessarily agree with...and anyway, all he said in the end is we need a win.

Thanks that is what I was thinking.

Look I just want to make this quick but I understand that when I first came here I was a complete jackass and I said some really stupid, stupid things but I have since said sorry and I meant it. I only just started watching and following European football as a whole Jan 2007 so Im still very new to a lot of things. Please, it would be great if instead of insulting me and calling me names if you could take an approach to educating me like Colm has and others. The passion for me is there I just need a little direction.

Also I did say it was a rumor. But enough of this lets talk about the upcoming match and support spurs with passion. :D

In a heartbeat!

:D

[cdmphy]

Let's remember that West Ham are suffering a slate of injuries that we can't even begin to fathom. And we had quite a few to start the season. They are basically missing everyone, so if we can't compete with their 2nd side, we are deservedly back in the relegation battle.

Hauler, trust me, we're very patient here. On any other Spurs Board you would've been ruined and run out of town in January.

Do you have a younger sibling who says dumbass things? To us, its you.

Just think before you post and don't get sucked into any silly hype. That way I think we'll all get along fine. and well done for picking Spurs. It's a lifetime of pain and disappointment from hereon in.

Regards, etc, etc.

[Hauler]

I hope Bale will be in the starting lineups tomorrow it would be good to see him. Is he still injured or is the club just taking precautions with him?

[Hauler]

Bale sounds doubtful from the story in the link. :(

[Hauler]

Bale and Kaboul are in the lineup!

Bale is playing at the LB position. Steed is left mid today. Zokora and Jenas in the middle. Keane and Berbs up front and pascal is playing normal right back position. We looked like we mean buisness in the tunnel. Game faces all around.

Oh and Lennon is on the other side opposite Steed and were here go.
