Champions League, Feb 15 ->

ESPN just figured out that the Spuds main tactic is to lump it at the far post for Crouch to head it down towards the center of the box. Idiots.

didn't expect Spurs to play like this!

quite impressive so far.

I like how Crouch has to foul a player 10 inches shorter than him to win the header. XD

Spurs' tactics board:

Get the ball into the final third, aim for Crouch's head, get players around him.

That's about it.

If it works, fair fucks though.

Abbiati injured ..

 

[Blue Haze]

Abbiati done, it looks like. Crouch KO'd him.

It's games likes this against decent opposition when over-rated players like Zlatan and Robinho get found out.

That's what got them here in the first place, but its also fair to say Spurs play nice football at times. When we learn to play to our strengths, we'll be in the last 16 of the CL too.

It generally works because PL officials don't blow the whistle while he's using the opposing player as a step ladder. You wouldn't think a nine-foot imbecile would need to climb another player to get his head on the ball, but we are talking about a complete waste of footballing space.

Ibra isn't overrated.
