Tottenham have done it!

Yes, they have done it. They have lost again! That makes it 2 points out of a possible 18 points. Yes at this point, they are worst off than the 3 promoted teams and Newcastle. I don't know the exact figures but last Monday's lost against Villa was their worst start in 34 years. Add another defeat to Pompey and we can expect that total amount of yrs to increase. They were aiming for a top 4 place. (Gomes was even aiming top 2). Well Mr Gomes, you lot are 10 points off the 4th spot and 12 points off your top 2 spot. Fancy coming from the Dutch league and talking big.

I did not watch the game against Pompey so i cant really say much about how they played. Wait i just read this off Soccernet. Worst start in 53 years! Anyways a look at the match stats and i see Spurs dominated possession(66%)and had more shots AT goal. But, only 4 out of 16 shots were on target.

A look at the starting line up look decent enuff. 4-5-1 with balance in midfield with Gilberto and Bentley down the flanks. I saw the substitutions made and saw a bit of chaos and desperation there. On 45 mins, right winger Lennon came on for the left sided Gilberto. Now we have two right wingers on the pitch. On 57 mins, Dos Santos(a winger as seen in his Barca days)came on for Zokora. 3 wingers now on the pitch along with Jenas and O'hara across midfield.

Then Pompey scored the 2nd goal. What does Juande do? He takes off Bent for Pavlyuchenko. Now he has still 1 striker and an unbalanced midfield. Why not load up with two strikers and go for it. But then again i did not see the game so i cant really criticise too much.

Nonetheless, it was another poor result for them. And to have two ex players condemn you to defeat is a bitter pill to swallow. To my friend out there who supports Spurs, for all your trash talk when u got Modric, i have nothing to trash back. Spurs are doing it for me.
