THFC and wot not!

so the spurs season carries on, and yet again we struggle to gain points away from home!
a point at Blackburn was, by the end of the game, quite a result for us as we struggled to hit top form again.
Mido could have stole us all 3 points on a couple if not several occasions but as his finishing was abismal, we were left to Defoe's sweetly taken penalty in the 62nd minute and a sending off for Tugay (apparently now a master of 30 yard volleys into the top corner! of course this kind of wizardry from a player who was yet to score this season can only happen against spurs!) to give us a kick in the arse! meaning we perhaps looked like the better team for maybe 20 mins in total! Hossam Ghaly's red card for spurs in the last few mins was in my oppinion very soft, and was a dissapointing end of a game for possibly the best player's performance for spurs! Davids had a good first half and not surprisingly that half was all he could manage, Defoe had a good game coming close with a turning overhead side kick, and making light work of running past the left back, only for his dangerous balls across the goal mouth to be easily dealt with as no one seemed hungry enough to charge into the area and be on the end of such good build up play!
Huddlestone put in a comfortable performance, assou ekotto was average, and Robinson made 1 or 2 fine saves (and needs no excuse for the goal as i doubt that there is a keeper in the world capable of stopping a shot like it! a definate goal of the month if ever i saw one!) Lee had a poor game and at times was a liability!
onwards to the uefa cup on thursday against bayern leverkusen where hopefully we should have more succes going forward with a rested Berbatov playing against his old team!
maybe we are missing Carrick, and his unrivaled distribution of the ball, in the league? maybe Zakora will soon fill his boots?

sorry to those of you who hate football or spurs but this was in my head so you get to hear about it!
and by the way i scored 6 goals in my football frolicking over the weekend and earned a man of the match to go with it! worth a mention me thinks as been long time waiting to get back to form!
crossroads.....NOT FORKROADS.......geddit?
