I wasn't talking about Cech. Yes he made a blunder the other day, but in all his years at Chelsea you can count them on one hand. There is now a big difference between the two. Agreed that wasn't the case a few years back. Dress it up how you wish, but have a look at Reinas reaction after he missed that cross that led to the 1st goal, not the first one today either. He knew.

:lach:

Cech has been terrible for about 2 years and has just rediscovered a bit of form.

Reina had a poor season last year for the 1st time in his career after winning what? 3 golden gloves in 4 years?

Pepe should have arguably being starting for Spain over Cassillas up until his 1 crap season last year.

Cech was also an abomination at the Euros.

Cech has things alot easier, Pepe hasn't got the 2nd most expensive squad in the history of Football infront of him.

Not talking about Cech but your man. He was flaky last week and again today and was at fault for the goal. It was coming. You don't agree, fair enough, but sometimes you are too blinkered for your own good.

For what its worth, Cech was outstanding in the 2nd half of last season, IMHO, and was a major factor in our success, including that save against your man in the cup final. I have no interest in how he played at euro 2012.

You can't just Bury Cechs Euro form or last 2 years or the fact Reina has kept more clean sheets behind a cheaper defence.

Cech hasn't been outstanding since he got his headware.

Is that just a fashion accessory now or does he seriously "have" to wear it?

Real Madrid to be Tottenham feeder club - :D

Tottenham announced they are entering a partnership with Real Madrid.

The agreement will see the two clubs working together in respect of players, coaching and commercial relationships.

They where also advised not to take Nuri Sahin as he's not that good! But on this occasion agreed to take Luka Modric as the player said he wanted to play in the sun as it will help his acne.

Good news for all us Spurs fans!

Sounds like PR guff to me.

They've basically bought your best player and give your hair a little ruffle on the way out.

It all looks pretty vague and meaningless to me... :|
Like everything else at Spurs at the moment - we'll see.

For me, AVB is very much on trial after a weird selection for the start of the WBA game.

Never mind, Spurs fans. Our manager has long time been the top scout for Farcelona and Manchester.

He seriously has to wear it. Specialists advice.

Forgot to mention that he signed a new 4-year contract with Chelsea in the summer and our next keeper won the europa league last season (on loan).
