Could someone tell me how much the reserve games are? Thinking of going tonight and just wondering about the expense. Thanks

could someone please explain what Rocha did (or maybe didnt so) that was so bad? I saw him against Everton and to be frank he was the only defender on view that looked like he had half a clue as to what he was supposed to be doing. I havent seen him since then so maybe he's awful in training. He looked a lot better than Kaboul, Dawson and Gardner on the night for what its worth.

If you feel like replying then please use some facts or instances where he screwed up rather than the 'hesrabbishyoumustbeavvinalarf' or 'too small/Portugese' type evidence. Ta

That header in the semi final at a**enal last year was shocking. Remember?

he prob is nt as bad as i make out but i just prefer a CB who looks like a CB (if that makes sense) like Daws, Woodgate, Terry etc

lol whats wrong with being portuguese? and he speaks fluent english.. i hope he gets another chance, he's definately better Kaboul.. Rocha completely marked ronaldinho outta a game a couple seasons ago for benfica.. got off to a shocking start at spurs though

thats a bit harsh, he slippped while jumping to head it. and thats the only major mistake i remember him making anyway, i can remember plenty more for some of the other defenders.

seems like ramos doesnt like him for whatever reason, he hasnt given him a chance at all. strange, even stalteri got a go before we shippped him out.

I guess you hate Lee as well? You remember 1 mistake but how about the countless mistakes our other defenders bar King made in the past season? Your reasons are personal and not objective so it's just as well that you didn't go on.

Some of the world's best defenders (Puyol, Ayala and Cannavaro springs to mind) are small in size and don't speak English but we'll be lucky if we can get anyone of that calibre. Football is not always about size or language through it helps. It's all about natural ability and talent which Rocha has as much as Kaboul or Daws. For me, I think Rocha is as good if not better than Daws but that is me and I guess everyone is entitled to their opinion, no matter how warped it can be.

No, you're wrong, our defenders dont make mistakes, its what we're known for remember.."Super Super Spurs, never let a goal in." Our goalies dont mistakes either...they are ALL brilliant especially Robbo. England's Number 1. :rofl:

Maybe you did nt realise that my post was a little, just a LITTLE tounge in cheek???? Chill a bit i was only messing and i a later post said he prob aint that bad.

HOWEVER saying Rocha is 'as good, if not better' than Daws???? OH PLEASE!!!!!!

FYI i could nt give a fuck about YP Lee either.

My opinion
