Harry was talking about 'one or two of them on there tonight'!!

To be honest I think we have some players who are very skilled but don't have the strong players to compliment them ie Modric, and then we have players with lots of skill but no desire to win ie Thudd, Pav, Ekotto

On Pav and Ekotto, both look like quality players but im yet to see either run themselves ragged like bale did last night.

To say that Pav has no desire to win is well off the mark, IMO.

As far as I am concerned he has worked his bollocks off lately and is getting better and better. This from a man who has been playing competitive football for a full year now. He still maintains, pretty much, a 1 in 2 scoring record and you can see the delight in his face when he bags one. Personally I think Pav is really enjoying himself at Spurs and loves playing for the club.

Ekotto shows glimpses of promise but could do a lot better and Thudd, again IMO, has never been good enough for our first team and nor will he ever be.

i quite think JJ would form an excellent partnership with palacios not sure where you would play modric though and he's to good for the bench

Hudd and Bent may be but if we sell Bale I will cry, scream, curse and vomit - not necessarily in that order.

Hudd - This guy has the potential but has'nt got it mentaly - weight back on
Bale - Terrible at defending, however showed some positive attacking play at Burnley but not enough effort.
Bent - Gives nothing to the team, would be good for team like everton. never understood this signing
Ekotto - Not up for the premiership. Caught out too many times.
Zokora - Love is effort and commitment but terrible in last third. Can't pass or shoot.

we are in dire need of a proper left back and left sided midfielder. As supporters we have been saying this for the last 4-5 years.

add jj to that list too , im sure the signing off another midfielder is a sign that his days are nearly done at spurs
especially as the player signed plays in his position and posseses more power , technique and ability than him !

bent will definatly be shipped out too

Never would have guessed that you'd have taken the opportunity to get in yet another dig at Jenas.:roll:



Could it also be that when players disagree with Rednapp, Bond & Jordan they are accused of sulking.

JJ wasn't playing - so can you explain this one please?

Well when he spoke it seemed like he was talking about players at the club in general, and considering Palacios has been brought in and JJ has been demoted from vice captain then it's more than possible that he had him in mind when he mentioned it. When Harry talks about his dependable players I don't really hear him mention JJ too much either.

I think to be honest, we've had too many premadonas at Spurs for a long time.

Bent may well be one of them, but even when he was going through his good patch he was really getting on my nerves as every flipping day there was an interview with him or comments made by him slagging off Ramos, praising Harry etc...

Players like this (Jenas can also be accused of this) seem to like talking the talk, but when it actually comes to it when out of the pitch can be accused of sometimes bottling it, not showing up or just not having the character...

Huddlestone is another one who has never really been that good for Spurs. He has a good game or two and then is usually very poor for a game.

We really do need to sort the squad out...

fair coments def :)

BTW HR has also said that JJ 'is one of the best midfilders in the country and a very important player for us'

so when JJ iss fit - hopefully for the Stoke game - we'll probably find out more

I'm not anti-JJ btw, and I do think he's important for us, I've said this many times, but I think he's mentally a weak character, obviously I don't know him so could be completely wrong but it's just the impression I get. He's not the type of person that I would want to count on when the chips are down on the football pitch.
