On a positive note Falque played well. Really impressed with his ball control and crossing ability
Agreed.
Know one should blame AVB at all. He wants to win this competition and it's up to the players to put the effort in.
He saw Townsend was shite and took him of. If he had a better replacement for Huddlestone he would done the same.

Murdered? We got 10 points in our group last season. We need to win our last 3 games (including away to Lazio) to beat that.
And we could have played those players, couldn't have been much worse.
Well, we were looking for 3 points. I might have started Demspey up front for a bit of a change-up, but it's awfully early in the season to start worrying about players needing a rest.
I agree completely about Adebayor, but it's fucking October and we're worried about players needing a rest?
Blame should be on the players heads, really poor effort from alot of them tonight.
Wonder if some find it hard to be up for these games when the last manager was drumming it into them that it was a mikey mouse cup.
Its a joke that were talking about players needing a rest now in the season. Fuck off, I'm not giving them any sympathy.
No one needs a rest, but I think people are worrying about a burn out later down the line...valid point imo. What they are missing though is that later down the line, we will have a fuller squad to rotate from.
AVB wants to win the EL, so Im not sure why people think he will play 11 children in it.
It's not that they need a rest now, but if they play every game up until March, they'll be wiped out for the rest of the season, as was shown in the last two seasons for us. There's a reason United always tend to come on strong, it's because Fergie uses opportunities to rest his key players. They don't always need the rest right at that point, but it keeps them fresh throughout the season.
So playing Sandro and Defoe against Maribor has condemned us to a disappointing finish 5+ months from now?
There will be players coming back from injury and some rotation, stop getting your panties in a twist.
I'll tell you why we our best players every game, is because we're TOTTENHAM! We never play well against fucking shit pub teams like Maribor. We can't afford to play our reserves, when our fucking first team players can't perform.
And the reason why fergie plays carrick at centre back with other shit like Anderson is because not matter what team they put out they will win.
Unless they play us

No panties in a twist here. But funnily enough EVERYONE was saying we should have rotated more earlier in the season when it got to March and Parker could barely run around anymore. Strange that very few were saying that back in October/November though.
dont know why anyones getting worked up about the game. the players werent. if the pre match talk wasnt 'dont get injured' then i'd be more concerned.
we also now know that tom huddlestone taking corners is without doubt the stupidest single idea i've witnessed at any time in my life. he's 6 foot fucking 13 inches with his hair bear bunch do, he stands still in the box and opponants are still gonna have to put a big man on him, he really should be positioned about 30yards from goal, anything cleared and he can rifle it back or do what he's best at and clip one in for a header, it also means he only has 20/30 yards to get back in position if opponants break on us. lennon is a winger, his job is crossing, he's 2 footed and 2 foot tall, why the fuck is he not taking the corners ?
you cant always odds what happens on the pitch, we play poor, opponants play well, shit happens, but you can do the fucking basics right and we are woeful at attacking and defending set pieces and corners. so easy to remedy and you dont have to be stoke to do a bit of work in this area.
