With only Jermain Defoe and Emmanuel Adebayor at Andre Villas-Boas’ disposal, and with the imminent release of Adebayor to South Africa to play for his beloved Togo in the Africa Cup of Nations in January, Matt Walsh discusses, if funds are available for the Spurs boss, what strikers could make their way to White Hart Lane.

Leadership qualities abound in Spurs back five

November 27, 2012 by Spurs

It’s always good to secure a win in the Premier League, especially when it’s against London rivals West Ham United. Much of the credit goes to the changes in defence, as our man Nick Harris points. The chap just cannot get enough of Hugo Lloris and for good reason as well.

It’s time for UEFA to take action

November 23, 2012 by Spurs

It’s unnaceptable. The treatment of Tottenham Hotspur fans in Rome has been simply appalling. To see our own fans attacked for absolutely no reason whatsoever is sickening. It’s time for UEFA to take action against the Italian side especially, as Matt Walsh points out, this isn’t the first time it’s happened.

Gareth Bale: Benchwarmer To Benchmarker

November 22, 2012 by Spurs

Ask any fan of a world class Spurs player and the first top pop into your head is Gareth Bale. The Welshman may not be of the same level as Cristiano Ronaldo, but he is certainly one of the game’s most naturally gifted Wingers. Nikhil Saglani gives us the low down on a player he is quite happy to call his favourite.

What does AVB need? A trequartista, that’s what

November 14, 2012 by Spurs

Missing out on a number 10, it can be argued, has hindered Spurs this season. Wth Clint Dempsey and Gylfi Sigurdsson failing to impose themselves in the starting XI, Matt Walsh looks at the potential targets once the transfer window re-opens in January.
