The Tottenham Thread 13/14 part 3.

[jlc09]

Spurs dont have a hope of finishing ahead of United, City, Chelsea or Arsenal. They never do and won't this year either.

Liverpool might leapfrog them too but I think Pool will fall away as their midfield is terrible. Superb attack though, which always give them a chance.<br /><br />-- Sun Oct 20, 2013 1:55 pm --<br /><br />I know they finished ahead of City before they exploded and once ahead of Chelsea the year they won the CL and pretty much gave up in the league towards the end.

I agree that top four teams will be us, chelsea, city with united in 4th. Both spurs and liverpool lack depth. liverpool have to top strikers but they lack any midfield and their defence is a joke. it be close between them everton, spurs and liverpool for 5th.<br /><br />-- Sun Oct 20, 2013 2:00 pm --<br /><br />

Spurs will win today but they're not a threat for anything really. Too many better sides in the league this year, they will do well to finish 5th i think.

don,t think they will today. fancy will to beat them 2-0 with some players coming back for them.

Negredo has played less minutes and Soldado scored two penaltys. Negredo has been doing better than Soldado and I'm not talking only about stats.

PS. To be fair Soldado got little or no service.

I seen Negredo for spain before he joined city and always rated him. I think he is on a different level to Soldado. It is true Soldado has not got the same service but in truth he fails to make enough runs and his link in play is awful. They over spent on a 28 year old player that not the real deal if you ask me.

IMO Soldado is the better poacher but Negredo is the better footballer in everything else.
In some matches Soldado has barely touched the ball near the box and that's a huge problem for him.

Put Soldado in 2013/2013 Arsenal = 25 goals.

This talk from spurs fans about this season being transitional is complete bollocks,you don t spend over £100m to say maybe next year....
And i await to be told in facts and figures that they havn't actually spent that much...

Well Spurs didn't spend £100m.

In fact, we actually made a £6m profit on player trading during the Summer 2013 transfer window.

But please don't allow the facts to get in the way of a good rant.

We've spent £100 million but we've lost Bale who is a £100 million pound player in my opinion.

My Negredo-Soldado stat was tongue in cheek, Just shows that stats are deceiving... Townsend has 1 goal and 0 assists in 7 PL games yet he's been our best player in the league this season.

 

[Blue Smarties]

Don't forget that Negredo ought to have one more goal, he had one ruled offside when he was on. Negredo has also offered a lot more, such as that fantastic 'dummy' yesterday.

Isn't it nice that a Manchester City website welcomes the saveloy boys to have a derby and joan and discuss who's going to finish 5th :-)
