Ade in a landslide for me
How did you work that one out?? :harryblow:
I started with our starting CB's goal tally on the season. one Jan Vertonghen at 4
I then looked at our starting Striker goal tally on the season one Emmanuel Adebayor at 3
Cue the "landslide"
David Bentley
Thing that annoys me most about BAE and Adebayor, despite them performing terribly this season, is their lack of passion and their disgusting attitude. They couldn't care less about the club. They know they're getting paid at the end of the week, so why should they care?
Such a shame too, because they could both be fantastic players…
Now to be fair to Bentley he's been much more effective than AdebayorYeah, talk about a player who never turned up in any of our games this season...
I think by 'passion' he means on the field - how much effort the players put in to get a result for the team. The argument with the Togo incident doesn't run through with me at all. Would that go anyway to explaining why in some games he runs his socks off and in others he literally looks like he'd rather be somewhere else? As we saw in the game against Woolwich, he looked too fired up and made a silly tackle that cost us the game. That sort of thing can happen to anyone, but Adebayor seems to fluctuate his effort levels too many times for my liking.How enthusiastic are most people about their employers?
Ade was shot at, he saw friends of his shot dead. I imagine he probably doesn't give a shit about what shirt he puts on, that kinda thing will put shit into perspective.
And we all love BAE, so how can we moan about his attitude and admire it at the same time.
Just because we'd happily do what they do for minimum wage and do it till we couldn't stand, doesnt mean they'll do the same. They've been doing it since they were probably about 8 years old. Whereas we can only dream.
It's not about the attitude, that's bullshit. Nobody wants to be made to look like a mug in front of thousands of people. Talking about a lack of passion is such bullshit.
If adebayor misses a sitter, do you think the rest of the squad, AVB, etc will all just laugh it off after? Of course they won't. If BAE is at fault for a goal, he'll get it in the neck.
Yeah, only won us the first 3 points at old trafford for 20 something years and almost put us through in a European away quarter final...
Christ sake, is this a proper spurs forum or should we rename this place "The paxton"
I voted for BAE, and Walker is definitely up there. We need to do something about our full-backs in the summer. Ignoring the lack of a solid striker, I feel it a massive weakness for this team. I believe Walker can do the business again for us, as he's still young, but he does need a kick up the backside.

Are you saying that a lawyer who's job it is to defend a peadophile is going to turn up in court and show passion and shit? No, he's doing it to put food on the table for his family.
A few names for you: Paolo Tamezzani. Kazuyiki Toda. David Kerslake. Ramon Vega. Gary Doherty. Moussa Saib. Johnny Jackson. Helder Postiga Dean Austin. Mbuleo Mabizela and the amazing Stuart Nethercott. Anyone can better than, hat's off to ya!
Season ticket after season ticket, and umpteen afternoons home on the train in tears (I was a junior then). Yep, supporting spurs ruined my childhood, everyone in Gants Hill knew me.I dont know what to say
you got me there at Toda and Postiga
How do you even remeber all these... memorable players ??
