    Looks like Defoe will be ok for this one. Harry said the operation has been postponed for now. I reckon he will start defoe just to see how he feels. I would expect to see the same team out except Ledly out and Basong in and maybe Kaboul replacing Corluka.

    Is Gomes out? He's pulled out of the Brazil squad anyways. Took him out of my fantasy team just in case but I want to put him back because we're virtually guaranteed the clean sheet.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,395 ✭✭✭Hatch99


    Hope Kaboul plays with Daws, he deserves it after his performance at Stoke.

    I hope Sandro is on the bench I wanna be able to say I was at his first match also I don't know how many fit players we have and he can play at cb aswell as Dm
    Cudicini
    Corluka--Dawson--Kaboul--BAE
    Lennon--Hudd--Palacios--Bale
    Crouch

    Defoe

    I'd expect anyway
    with 7 out of 9 on the bench looking at that I doubt Sandro will be on the Bench still dont know if hes hooked up with the squad?
    Bassong,Jenas,Sandro,Kranjcar,Walker,Button,pav,Keane,gio

    no way will sandro be on the bench. modric is back so he will start instead of palacious, other than that the team above looks good

    Heurelho Gomes has joined Luka Modric on the sidelines for Saturday's match against Wigan in the Barclays Premier League.
    Harry Redknapp confirmed on Friday morning that both players will miss out with their respective groin injuries.
    Luka picked up his problem in the first half of our Champions League play-off, first leg at Young Boys. That meant he missed the win at Stoke and the return leg at the Lane.
    Gomes suffered his injury in the first half of Wednesday night's encounter and needed treatment (pictured above) before being replaced at half-time by Carlo Cudicini.
    "Neither will be available for Wigan." reported Harry at Spurs Lodge. "We've got a couple of knocks but other than that, we're okay."
    Better news sees David Bentley on his way back after an ankle injury. "He's set to start training again on Monday," added Harry.
    Alan Hutton, Jonathan Woodgate (both groin), Jamie O'Hara (back) remain sidelined.


    Modric out i'm afraid


    Nzogbia won't be playing for Wigan either so there most potent attacker is gone now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,364 ✭✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    N'zogbia is out!!

    *saunters of to amend Fantasy football team*


    when will Gallas be available to you think.

    I suppose its a case of a few reserve games before he's up to match speed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 310 ✭✭fabvinny


    surely the easiest 3 points of the season tomorrow?? they are shocking bad at the moment!!

    Has to be! So long as we dont make a mess of it like we did with Stoke and Wolves last season!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,058 ✭✭✭tippspur


    We're good enough to beat Wigan even without our injured players,I would like to see Keano get a run out on Saturday I'd say he'd net a few against them.

    I think that this will be a comfortable win for us. Everyone is on a high right now and of course Wigan are crap. Having said that I don't see us scoring 9 or them scoring 1 either


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,081 ✭✭✭ziedth


    Wigan are like 36-1 to win 1-0. Seems like a hell of a bet if you were that way. I'd never bet against spurs though.

    I think nice handy 3-0 today.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,341 ✭✭✭positivenote


    any links to a stream chaps?

    Great play from Defoe there. He looks really sharp.

    Was hoping we be up at this stage though.

    Hopefully we can get one before the half is over.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 823 ✭✭✭kakee


    spurs aren't doing too great at the moment

    Typical Spurs. Just when things look good they bring you back down to earth with a bang


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,670 ✭✭✭✭Wolfe Tone


    ffs guys, I really feel for you spurs fans. I knew the optimism at the start of this thread would be misplaced. Typical spurs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 266 ✭✭marty2002


    wtf is wrong with them? Wigan like!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,459 ✭✭✭T-b0n3

    I'm thinking those three points will prove very costly come the end of the season!:mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,791 ✭✭✭Big Pussy Bonpensiero


    oh my FúCKING god!! How do we keep losing to shítty teams??????? Its as if we do it on purpose...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20 mayospur


    well...what's the excuse for today.....after all it was WIGAN!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭KingdomYid


    Saw that comng when we did not score early on. It was the same script as Stoke last season. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 553 ✭✭✭flower tattoo


    tired after Wednesday??


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,994 ✭✭✭KingdomYid


    One has to wonder if the boys were out a bit too late on Wednesday night :mad:. Just not good enough no excuses can cover that performance.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 126 ✭✭Jmcc001


    havent felt like this in a long time. 3 point lost to a team that has conceded 10 goals in the past 2 prem games


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 46 Everything In Its Right Place


    same as stoke. same as wolves home and away. same as portsmouth. we come into games as overwhelming favorites and end up defeated. the main problem was fatigue i guess these players are not capable of playing two games a week. remember when we beat wigan 9-1 we lost our next home game 0-1 to wolves. it seams we have huge trouble breaking down small teams when we go behind.

    Lads I know today was bad but we always have two or three of these every season. I'am just glad this didnt happen last wednesday.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,438 ✭✭✭Morgans


    Tired. Missing guile of Modric and the sheer ineptitude of Cuidicini cost us. Of course, Wigan should have scored before Rodellega, but Carlo is simply rubbish. We shouldnt be as exposed as we are when Gomes gets injured. Wigan defended well and double up on Lennon and Bale forcing Wilson and Huddlestone to play through the middle. They arent the players to pick the lock. Still have plenty to learn and maybe will scare Levy into getting one or two players in.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    shocking preformance and result for us today. harry looked well pissed at the end and in the post match interview he wasnt happy. it was inevitable that we were going to be brought back down to earth.

    we need more players, and fast


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    just saw the goal there, an absolute disaster to give away. ball barely moving and carlo misses it. he is a disaster of a keeper


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,395 ✭✭✭Hatch99

    Correct, and negative im sure they are. Crap result. Some will be all nice and make excuses, but there is none, Absolute rubbish.

    Why did we not make more changes and freshen things up. Keane for example is chomping at the bit.

    Was it a case of the charlies celebrating too much, i hope not, but who knows ?

    Im fuming, but I bet several of the players are not, and thats what gets to me.


    Lord,i need a few beers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,672 ✭✭✭keane=cock


    on next in th epremiershp. im dreading watching it. the amount of abusive text messages i got today wasnt even funny.(for me anyway!)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,364 ✭✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    Desperate result.. but how many of us are actually shocked by it?

    It was on the cards after our mid week game and celebrations.

    Unfortunetly its something we might have to get used to this season if we are going to be playing so many mid week games. Im sure we wont perform like that every sat/sun after a CL mid week game but its bound to happen a few more times.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,438 ✭✭✭Morgans


    I'm a little happier about this than other results last year - Wolves/Stoke. Its relative. But Ive seen so many false dawns at Spurs that its often something wrong mentally that cause them to lose these games. Today, I dont think it was mental.

    I dont think we were good enough. Full stop. What we were screaming for was a top class midfielder, a proper attacking central midfielder. We were exposed. We have relied on Bale and Lennon to create for so long. Krancjar came on but stayed wide, presumably Harry wanted Bale to overlap. Wigan stopped the wings from contributing, and Palacios (off-form) and Huddlestone (off-form today) werent good enough to find the solution.

    Hopefully Sandro will provide more but is more of a defending midfielder, but time is ticking to find the right player. We need a second option to Modric. Robbie and Gio arent the answer.

    United have Scholes, Arsenal have Fabregas, we would be scratching around in the next tier below - Ireland/Arteta/ and maybe even Pienaar could have added something to our team. Its not often that the wings are clamped down as well as Wigan did, but we are short there in certain circumstances.

    For all that, Cudicini still cost us a point.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,661 ✭✭✭mickman


    arsenal have fabregas etc. thats true and we have modric, he is injured and we miss him, the same way that arsenal are only half a team without fabregas.

    keane wont play for spurs again, he is gone for sure . it all started with keane the twat decided to go behind harrys back and organise a piss up in dublin before the wolves defeat in december. he has no one to blame for the demise of his spurs career except himself. harry dosent have time for alcohol and made that clear, robbie chose to ignore that, his choice.

    he will prob go to west ham in exchange for parker . he lost it with joe jordan when defoe who was injured was started against young boys, it was the final nail in the coffin. harry is going for pav every time now and he has no time for him either :-) that just shows how far down the pecking order keane is

    where would parker play? not sure, modric and hudd in the centre or is harry planning on putting bale back full back? hope not as wigans goal came from that side yesterday. we have sandro as well dont forget and jenas
