Re: Tottenham Hotspur - the Pride of London

Bros,

We managed to keep our 4th clean sheet with 3 Wins and 1 Draw (10 points out of possible 12). Great effort and result!!! 3 more points and we are at the safety 40 points mark with 18 games to go.

Here's the match report for Spurs 2 West Ham 0:
Report: Tottenham Hotspur vs West Ham United - English Premier League - ESPN Soccernet

Let's concentrate on the Pros and Cons of the West Ham match. For me:

Pros
1) We played with authority and confidence;
2) Lennon looked like a dynamite ready to explode anytime;
3) Modric looked very at ease with his first full game and his contribution, to me, is almost what Fabregas did for Arsenal in the Villa game;
4) Huddlestone is on fire;
5) Palacios is sharp and very dynamic;
6) Dawson + King masterfully stopped West Ham to a couple of shots on target;
7) Corluka + Assou-Ekotto were everywhere and anywhere when you needed them;
8) Crouch was hardworking and Defoe was equally hardworking (on and off) too; and
9) Gomes has matured and grown in confidence. He make comfortable saves and cut-off crosses effectively;
10) Overall, a great team effort!!!

Cons
1) Still there are signs of lapses as usual with any Spurs side. This is one department where it is hard to change;
2) We are wasteful in front of goal, sharper shooting should make the win more impressive as Robert Green looked to have a off-day.

Of course we must still remember that yesterday's West Ham side was depleted with injuries and we should have a more comfortable win. However, given the great team effort to cover one another, I guess we can take this win happily. Just hope that we can play like that against any other side in the Premiership, be it Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool or anyone else.

Congrats to Harry for getting right again.

COMON YOU SPURS!!!
