(stupid jol for spending 16.5mil on bent - however he can prove quite useful if needed and unless we get a super good offer for him, should keep him, unless we sign luis garcia from espanyol) i think our main focus this year should be making sure our fitness is again improved so that after 70min we dont fall behind quality teams like man utd and chelsea. nima, ur obviously an arsenal fan who just bashes tottenham for no apparent reason, so ur input is invalid.

They have to come back to earth and admit that they are light-years behind the top 4. It's also funny how they always think they can catch arsenal.Last season you finished 11, Arsenal finished 3, only 4 points behind champions United. And if I remember correctly after the sale of Henry, everyone picked us to drop out of the top 4, yet we actually improved our performances. SO if we coped so well without Henry, what makes you think that the sale of Adebayor will have any impact? TIME TO FACE REALITY, YOU ARE A SECOND RATE CLUB WHO CAN AT BEST FINISH FIFTH.

Yeh I know they are the position between mid and forward but Uefa classifys them as forwards (then again Uefa have been known to be idiots) I still think Arsenal havent caught on.

Or was it wing-half? Back in the days when most teams seemed to play 2-3-5 lol. Pool fan,

The problem Spurs have had for years have been second rate managers who could not match the likes of Sir Alex, Maurinho, Wenger and Benitez. Spurs have resolved this vital problem as RAMOS is a classy operator with a proven track record. The matches against ManU, Chelski, Liverpool & ARSEnal were encouraging without his "players". Now with the rebuilding and RAMOS in charge, I will be betting that SPURS will surely make the breakthrough this season!

I do think Sven messed up with his system but I still believe that building a new side will lead to inconsistancy.

Podolski would also be a keen signing, he's young, fast, and works hard. Top four isn't out of the question.

Also, if bringing in new players led City to inconsistency that can't be the reason we were in the top 4 at Christmas. It was a combination of a few things: a surprise element, fatigue of players brought in who were used to Winter breaks (according to Sven, I only half believe this) and also in my opinion, his over reliance on 4-5-1 in the second half of last season.

Have you not encountered a cross-cum-shot before? (You'll either recognise that or it will take your mind somewhere else, or both). Just have to say Graham, I think Ramos will do well there, I do like Spurs. That said, I felt your description of Dos Santos was exactly like Nery Alberto Castillo. How well he does remains to be seen, although I know City were linked with Santos for a while. I wish them well. Alex,
