The FA-cup

Villa losing at home to Sheffield United

I miss Leeds in the league. They are taking feckin forever to return to the EPL.

Cup shmup, nobody really cares about it anymore.

fact: Villa haven't scored at home since 1973.

Yes, the angriest club in England is really being missed.

Sarcasm.  

Another early cup defeat. Well done Alan.   We didn't even play a weak team.

Hopeless, by the sounds of it. Can't score to save lives: only 2 of the last 15 games have we managed to score twice.

next three fixtures: Arsenal (h), Liverpool (a), West Brom (h). two guaranteed losses and then I think the latter will be judgement day for Lambert (though particularly heavy defeats to Arsenal/Liver could do for him before that).

Whats wrong with them? They played good football back in the day!

Anyway, Eriksen missed a sitter to put Spurs ahead in the AXA-Sponsored FA Cup by E.ON with Budweiser.

You made Dutch teletext headline though...

Of all the unsuccessful clubs in England Leeds were clearly the most disliked, there was a reason for that, their fans were just plain angry with everyone for no good reason, and judging by our cup game with them earlier in the year they haven't changed much.

That headline could've come from anytime in the past 50 years. and based on the technology, I'll assume it's from the 1980s.

It's clearly 2014...CissÉ finally leaves the club



Though, Teletext is losing territory these days, even for me. I must say I quite like Fotmob these days.

Anyway Arsenal 1-0 ahead!! The Adam Sandler lookalike scored.

You Dutchies are stuck in the 1970s.

We have digital teletext, and we can watch TV at the same time

Wilshere trying to be the hard man. Such an attention seeking fag.

Rose

That must not look nice on a 60" TV! 2-0 Rosicky! He lost some pace though over the years.

Fairly beaten. Yet again 11 players missinh at the Emirates. Frustrating that we didn't put up a fight yet again. It's hardly the bombanera FFS, why do our players look so petrified.

Nice trolling by Walcott too. Did actually chuckle at that. Fair play.

#LEGEND

Always amuses me how Arsenal players and fans are happier than pigs in shit beating Spurs, but will then claim at every opportunity we're a small insignificant club.

Can accept being beaten by a better team, as was the case today. Rather disgruntling though that Arsenal halved the ticket allocation for Spurs fans at the game. No valid upstanding reason for it. Atmosphere could have been so much better with more than 4,000 away fans.

Sherwood out? Spurs just can't topple Arsenal can they?

Shall we sing a song for you could be hear quite well from the Arsenal fans, so perhaps it could have helped, but doubt it. Spurs fans are not really vocal.

We were awful yesterday, absolutely awful. I know many fans, as long as there's two up front and old fashioned touchline hugging wingers, will be happy regardless but that amateurish shit isn't for me. Sherwood has kept AVB's ultra high line but got rid of everything that was protecting it.

The 2nd was Rose's fault, but what does it say about Soldado's mentality that he's passing back to the last man instead of putting the ball back in the mixer? Play the fucking percentages! I was apprehensive about him coming in, I preferred a few other strikers. Irritation has boiled over into near hatred, I'm back in that Darren Bent 2008 phase. In this set-up he's reliant on Adebayor playing well. It's not enough for his price-tag and reputation.

People wanted "their Tottenham back", there it is - out of both domestic cups in 3 weeks. Sherwood, like Soldado is clearly dependent on Adebayor playing brilliantly.

People got way to carried away by us beating a declining Man Utd, a 2nd Choice Southampton defence, and a depleted/fatigued Stoke.

Hopefully (but not likely) when he manages to get a deeper squad together in terms of fit players coming back and our better players coming back, he can get a more rounded idea of where he wants to take this team. We have a big squad, any team would struggle with the amount of injuries we have - Sandro, Paulinho, Townsend, Vertonghen and Kaboul all could easily start, and that's not to mention the likes of Siggy, Holtby, Lamela and Defoe to offer us more options.

Call me again in June when Sherwood's out an Van Gaal *prays* is in.

Can see the frustration fans have and the confidence the player showed in what was happening on the field yesterday. Whatever he does in midfield to solidify the team the #10's are clearly not ready to perform week in and week out at this level going back will not help either. Not getting blown away is a step forward and sorting out the middle will move the side along. As for having a Plan B there is not much a thing the players performing for each other will create plan A to Z.
