1- if he's registered Gunter can play. Which he can be as each team can make three changes before this stage.
2- he probably could.
3 - fuck knows.

Shame if Daws can't make the final. Given up on King nowadays. We keep waiting for the 'comeback', but he plays one game then nothing for months.
Probably Woodgate and Kaboul, against Anelka and Drogba. :-|

No, he's not. He played v Everton.

Didn't play for Bolton, who got knocked out early.

we can survive without Dawson. whats interesting to me is that Ramos seemed a little annoyed at Dawson for coming out yesterday and it turns out he was really hurt. perhaps they dont have the best relationship?

I think you're reading into things too much. I'm guessing Ramos just wanted to know what was actually wrong, as he appeared to be ok to walk off.

perhaps - Im pretty much parroting the TV commentators interpretation as I didnt pay attention to the exchange.

Dawson has been a good player for us....but, we now are in need of CB's who are more in the Euro image.....and we have atleast 4 better defenders already. That said, I can see poor Michael D going back to the Championship...possible via a lower Premiership team.....but he will survive better in the lower division! Sorry Daws mate! COYS!

Kaboul did well enough, and hopefully King will be able to play a game now and then for us including the final! and we will have Woodgate back as his suspention is finished, would have liekd him to not be injured though with King still not recoverd.

Lets hope he has a quick recovery and back playing soon

Plus we have Zokora returning. He has played very well as a stop gap CB.

IMHO Dawson is now so far down the list it wont make any difference .King ,Woody ,Kaboul,Hud,and even Zok are all in front of him. I don't think he is a Ramos player and could well be on his way next season. A great hearted player but limited footballing ability which all of the others have. Hasn't fulfilled his potential.

This presumably explains why Ramos has continued to pick him ahead of Kaboul.

We'll manage with

Woodgate, Kaboul, Huddlestone, Chimbonda, Zokora and who knows maybe King can be resurected one more time

Yep agree, loss of Daws is not too bad but if this happened 2 months ago we would be crying.

Think we have enough cover, but feel sorry for him as he never gives less then 100% for the team.

I was really impressed with Zokora playing much deeper before he went away. Looks & reads the game so much better in defence than in central midfield.

I haven't had many good things to say about Dawson lately, but the last thing we need is another injury in this already battered defense! However, I would love it if Kaboul took this opportunity to show us his promise.

Dawson and Kaboul should be paired with either King or Woodgate. Having said that Hudd has been playing excellent at CB and could be paired with Dawson or Kaboul as well.

He has not been registered. Our three changes are Woodgate, Gilberto and, more surprisingly, Pekhart.

What a fucking load of nonsense. I'm so sick of Spurs fans. It's the same with Robinson. We get nonsense like he's the best goalkeeper in the league, then he goes through a rough patch and he's called shit. Now Dawson is the target, after the praise he was getting last year and the season before that.

We are not that far away from Newcastle fans, thats all I'm going to say.:roll:

It's right.

People are over-excited one minute, then totally deflated the next and there's zero middle-ground.

Dawson HAS been poor though. I sometimes believe it's because the standard of attacking is so high in the Premiership though that the players of two years ago were looking complete rocks now look total numpties at times.
