the real spursfan(aka Ted Ditchburn1)

Benny .... I do not agree with your comments on Defoe and Bale.
Truth is AVB has not got this team together as yet.
I do hope Levy fires him.



Typical of you Ted to want the manager sacked after five matches. Tak about fickle. OK the team did not win, but they still have not lost since the opening day of the season. What exactly do you want Ted.

Lazio will defeat Spurs in Rome.



You said that when Spurs played in Milan, and Spurs won you plank.

That's fair enough Ted. I just haven't seen anything class from Bale in a long time and surely now he should be more consistent!!

Couldn't disagree more. I remember the old days when Gazza moved to Lazio and i started watching his progress. It nearly put me off football for life. So fuçking boring it's unreal. I couldn't wait for it to be over so i could turn over and watch Southend against Aldershot in the Endsleigh league.

Technically good, very organised i agree. But entertaining. No. Simple as that.

Yep maybe i'm ignorant. I was brought up on attacking football and thats how I want it played. If people prefer slow football and cynical fouls thats down to them.

Are you kidding? You think Italian football 20 years ago is the same as now?

My point is, you were wrong to make sweeping statements about an entire league based on your encounter with one team. It would be like judging the whole English league based on Chelsea's displays last season.

Scottish league probabaly does too redrob doeant make it any better.

Sheriff ok ok fair enough i was wrong to say the whole league play the way Lazio do ( which was unly at best). But they have dropped behind Germany, which is why they only get three places in the CL. If that was the EPL we would be asking ourselves whats wrong.

Agree with pretty much all of that Benny

Not sure i'd start Townsend over Bale yet, although I would be tempted to move him to left back. It doesn't help he's double-marked in almost every game, at LB he'll get the space he needs to do damage. Not sure if AVB will do it though.

Serie a is an awfully dull league. Just look at the attendances, the championship is better attended!

It's also pretty low on quality, the bundesliga is now a better and more entertaining league.

I have been a bit of a critic of Bale recently but I thought he had a fairly good match today. I seem to be alone in feeling this way though....

I thought Bale was alright considering when he got the ball three players were quickly around him, that's probably what gave Lennon and others more time on the ball.

Forza I think Kompany is mustard too. By the way I think I over reacted earlier about Italian football, maybe I expected a bit more skill and less fouling from a team that ( along time ago) took Gazza from us.

I thought they were classic Italian in their organisation.
And for an away leg, against a team that have had the likes of Bale and Lennon mauling the Milans, can you blame them.
