Buh 0 Posted December 2, 2013 Star player leaves in the summer and everyone still talks about him - check!Transfer record smashed several times in an effort to kick on - check!Manager stabilised the previous season but is under pressure to push on - check!Recent large defeat to ManCity caused a lot of fans to jump into the out camp - check!New signings haven''t hit the ground running as expected - check!The similarities are amazing when you think about it, we are the bottom half spurs!

YellowNets1901 0 Posted December 2, 2013 No, but he bloody loves Spurs so being compared to them would make him burst with utter delight. His praise for them is almost constant. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
a1canary 0 Posted December 2, 2013 I was thinking exactly this at the weekend. And you missed some other big similarities:Manager''s preferred system is to play 5 in midfield with a single striker....checkFan''s getting annoyed at poor goal returns and subsequent reluctance to play 2 strikers...check (although CH is showing more willingness to try this than AVB) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

splutcho 173 Posted December 2, 2013 Yep, Defoe and Becchio are totally the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Warren Hill 0 Posted December 2, 2013 [quote user="splutcho"]Yep, Defoe and Becchio are totally the same.[/quote] I know!! Both rotting on the bench, both proven goalscorers. Becchio probably has more to his all round game based on what I''ve seen though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
