I'm n...Oh here we go again with the stat man!!<br /><br />I'm not even going to go into a comparison of Bale vs downing because it simply is outrageous to even think about!<br /><br />On a more comparable level, the majority of us said that N'zogbia was probably the more dangerous and slightly better player who was bought for 9.5mil! <br /><br />Also Downing has been an average Joe for the majority of his career, so he had a good season (last) at Villa I don't think that justifies the price tag and would need to have a few good seasons before you can say that!<br /><br />Liverpool are a good team don't get me wrong, but you are being overhyped!Stuartnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537187000932435104.post-75741408654486463802011-08-16T08:52:20.474-07:002011-08-16T08:52:20.474-07:00No pod the prediction on downing is based on multi...No pod the prediction on downing is based on multiple prem league seasons where he has been consistent, and last season when he got more goals and assists than bale and put more successful crosses in the box than any other player!Talalnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537187000932435104.post-1565804275995678522011-08-16T08:51:32.612-07:002011-08-16T08:51:32.612-07:00"P.s Pod, henderson may have been overpriced ..."P.s Pod, henderson may have been overpriced but I think ppl are coming to the conclusion that downing isn't" <br /><br />And this conclusion has been reached after 1 premiership game??? <br /><br />"and 8mill for adam and 6mill for enrique?! They're bargains!" <br /><br />This is true (especially Enrique!) but they are hardly world beaters to warrant predicting you to finish so high!Stuartnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537187000932435104.post-82004182063478661512011-08-16T08:47:45.510-07:002011-08-16T08:47:45.510-07:00T's prediction that sunderland will finish abo...T's prediction that sunderland will finish above spurs makes me laugh more than angry.<br /><br />For me, it was very difficult to put spurs 5th but I'm simply hoping they prove me wrong. Its hard to see beyond utd winning the league with chelsea coming closest to challenging. City are too strong in their squad and most likely to finish 3rd atm. Without the benefit of seein who we sign, I can't really see us finishing 4th - esp with liverpool improving and having the momentum from last season. I do predict them to be strong unfortunately and had to let my head rule my heart for the purpose of this exercise.<br /><br />But if spurs do some business and players stay fit...that can change. We are tottenham.

Also what happens when Vermalen is injured?"<br /><br />Yeah and what happens, if Bale, Modric and VDV get injured?<br /><br />"We all saw how fragile they were last season, they have their tails between their legs with their captain & best player off just at the start of the season. Without signings I see no reason why we can’t finish above them."<br /><br />Mate this is possible. If things stay as they are, with RVP fit and Vermalen fit I think with their current squad they’ll finish above you and you don’t buy a striker.<br /><br />"And T seriously Sunderland above us?! Apart from up top we have such a strong team. All we need is a top striker and depending on the Palacios to Stoke transfer happening another CM. Keane is soon to be off the wage bill, we will start to move in the market!"<br /><br />Yes this is possibly the most ridiculous prediction ever.<br /> <br />"Liverpool have signed overpriced overhyped players and yet people think they are going to finish 2nd/3rd Get Real!"<br /><br />Yeh 2nd is highly unrealistic. But still a strong team, once in their stride who knows could push for third, Man City are still the pretenders I think Liverpool could edge em, but only an edge.<br /> <br />"P.s De Gea looks dodge from low shots! He is seriously slow and getting down! But still Utd are too strong!"<br /><br />Yes, this saddens me. However, early days, I’m sure VDS has made some howlers like that when he was younger. I think he was still shaken by the community shield.Lysandernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537187000932435104.post-847515546524376112011-08-16T08:33:02.238-07:002011-08-16T08:33:02.238-07:00Also

Before that we were considered the top team outside the top 4 and still managed a good challenge for the 4th spot last season but just ran out of steam. We don’t have the champs league this season to distract us and we will play youth/ reserves in Europa meaning we will be fresher and more ready for the league.<br /> <br />Just because we haven’t spent millions yet we have been written off and no one talks about us challenging for the top 4 except for…..Alex Ferguson! Every mention of challenging this season he will always says Tottenham and let’s be honest he knows a thing or two about football! I’m not saying we are dead certs for CL spot, nor will we seriously challenge for the title BUT with Arsenal weakening and us hopefully keeping together our best players we can finish in that top 4 and bring those Glory Glory nights back where they belong!<br /> <br />Audere Est Facere!<br /> <br />COYS<br /> <br />Yid Army!<br /> <br />P.s United we are coming for you!Stuartnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1537187000932435104.post-61053786756700392232011-08-16T08:32:23.659-07:002011-08-16T08:32:23.659-07:00Seriously unless Arsenal make some signings they w...Seriously unless Arsenal make some signings they will struggle!<br /> <br />Fab is already going, Nasri will follow and then what happens WHEN RVP is injured?
