    KAK strikes again! :D We're such a different team with them up front, they've got such a cutting edge and although Robbie has got the hat trick today, Kanoute has been an absolute goal machine. He can comfortably break 20 premiership goals this season as long he doesn't pick up another major injury. I'm going to check exactly what our record is this season compared to the games when they've played together, and the games where we've missed one or both of them, there must surely be a big difference in the win/loss columns.

    Bit disappointing the way we let Wolves get their goals right after we'd scored, lack of concentration on our part. But to be honest I would give the credit to Wolves, they got crushed by a weak A*senal team in midweek so I thought they would be determined to put up more of a fight today. Wolves are as likely as any team to be in the bottom 3 this season, but this is still a good league win and something to build on.

    You think anyone besides the Spurs board calls the up front partnership KAK? If they don't, they should.

    Nice to see Dalmat get one as well.

    Awesome day for Keano. Frankly, he's been a little disappointing thus far, so it's good to see the floodgates open. Zamora broke his duck. Postiga breaks his duck this week and now Dalmat scores. I've been seriously worried about our attack since Pleaty took over, so it's good to see us finishing, even if it is against a poor Wolves defense.

    Anyway, we're 10th in the table and within legitimate striking distance of both an UEFA spot and a Champions League spot. Keep up the good work.

    While you're checking on our effectiveness when we have KAK in full force, please also give a check to how we're doing when Ricketts plays. IMHO, this kid is underrated, as he seems to be our secret talisman. ;)

    Dalmat's goal was superb, be sure to check it out if you weren't able to catch it.

    He cut in from the right past a couple of defenders and just blasted it on the bounce into the far top corner. A sweet strike. We've really scored some lovely goals this year. Kanoute nearly had another Everton-style goal as well, another volley from 25 yards out, this time closer to the penalty area but on the right side, keeper made a great fingertip save though.

    Excellent, all the goals had something to be proud of. Either the finish or the approach play.

    I think we all knew this would be a romp.

    I went to see Palace play Crewe on tuesday night, and they were awful. If Spurs play as they did against Wolves and Palace continue to be poor (4-1 vs Preston and 1-3 vs Crewe) then i can see it being a rout.
