goalkeeper was to blame; Lucio's shot wasn't that difficult.

I believe you Hammer! The FSC replay angle wasn't the best.

f@ck you kas!

Gardner goes off injured, Dawson on in his place.

Lucio's net movement, -1 point.

Haha I need the luck...2 seasons running, my CL fantasy team has been completely impotent in terms of strikers. And first time I try the UEFA competition, I'm in the money with goals for Klose, Larsson, and Aguero (2). If only my midfielders (Rivaldo, Modric, Lincoln) actually played, I'd be doing even better

Damn! you were on the money with your forwards. I also have Larsson, but Keano's watching from the bench.

Tottenham can't defend though...they miss Ledley King. Younes Kaboul needs a better CB partner too.

Davenport>Dawson,Gardner,Rocha.

@Kas...I also have Aguero .

One of the best players around :



Glad to see him back doing what he does best , score them goals !

I wouldn't compare him to Lampard , maybe Sneijder

Koroman again owning Lahm. Good rush; shot just wide....

Hey man, this is some game. This is a CL match in the UEFA Cup.

Sneijder can pass can't he? Cahill does exactly what Lampard does, just nowhere near as well.

The BBC text commentary has this:

"NEWS ALERT: There are some sources that suggest Spurs boss Martin Jol is set to step down after the game against Getafe."

I wonder where they have heard that from.

Bayern were a litle bit on top after the equaliser, but now Red Star are turning on the heat.

That Koroman is a hell of a player.

Maybe so , just don't like him to be shooting from 25 yards out on every opportunity (this is what i think of Lampard). I always though Cahill would be from the Scholes school of Football (forget the tackling)

Basel - Rennes 1-0 streller

WOW! Red Star threading the needle in midfield. That Nedved lookalike is also a good player.

Jol out - Ramos in?

Martin Jol has agreed severance terms with Tottenham Hotspur and is expected to take charge of his last match for the club against Getafe tonight.

Juande Ramos has agreed to become the new manager at White Hart Lane at the start of next season, although he is coming under heavy pressure to take the reigns sooner.

The match at home to Blackburn Rovers on Sunday is likely to come too early for the Seville manager, however, and Clive Allen is expected to take charge for that match.

Gus Poyet, the former Tottenham and Chelsea midfield player, has been approached to become the assistant manager.

Jol’s position has been untenable since senior Tottenham officials made an embarrassingly public approach for Ramos in August. The club have been pursuing the Spaniard since.

The Dutchman appeared buoyant as he left the tunnel for the dugout before kick-off against Getafe, giving no hint of the drama that was unfolding.

Ramos will be charged with turning around Tottenham’s fortunes - expectations of challenging for a place in the Champions League this season have been crushed by a series of poor results and performances.

More soon...

Yep, he's doing well too.

Always like watching teams from any bit of Yugoslavia. At least nearly every player has a decent first touch and is technically skilled.

Looking forward to the second half.

Now Sevilla's season is also f@cked up. Ramos' position will be similarly untenable, and he's bound to leave before the season ends.

Where to now for Martin Jol ?

AZ? Oranje?

Ajax seem to have first dibs on Van Basten.
