Ramos' Postmatch Thoughts....
Tottenham boss Juande Ramos admitted their Carling Cup final victory was 'special'. The Spaniard claimed his fifth trophy in less than two years but the former Sevilla coach was still delighted with his first major triumph as Spurs manager. "It's always a tremendous satisfaction to win a trophy but I would say this one has a special flavour to it because it was against a team who are supposedly superior to us," said the Spaniard. "It's like when I was at Sevilla and we won against Barcelona or Real Madrid, it adds a special flavour. "It's a great satisfaction to win a trophy especially for a club and the fans who haven't had success for such a long time. "For a club as big as Tottenham a long time seems even longer, so it is tremendous. "Success always comes for everybody - for the players first as they are the ones who carry out the work we do. "It is not a personal battle [between coaches] - it was simply that Spurs were the better team on the day." Ramos admitted that the fact the club have secured a Uefa Cup spot, eases the pressure on them to win in Europe. "Qualifying for Europe next season makes everything calmer now because it removes a huge pressure on the team," he said. "We are all calmer now that we have qualified for Europe again, which takes some pressure off the club. This has been a unique experience and one we hope to repeat. "For the moment we will enjoy the victory. Next week we are back in the Premier League and we have to concentrate on that, we are also still in the Uefa Cup. "The team has been improving in terms of the security and confidence they feel. Today has reaffirmed that. "The players have shown they can concentrate to be serious enough to fight with the best of them. "They key is not making mistakes and they showed they could concentrate on that." |

Grant is full of [beep!]! |
|
I have to confesse that I am a huge admirer of mourinho, not only of Mourinho but any coach that shows something special about him like Ramos. You might be a decent coach, which I don't doubt that Grant is and you might even have an assitant with a great reputation but that special skill, that all great managers have, of be able to push your players to give that 10 % extra when your phisical strenght is abandoning the team, that power to motivate your men when everything seems to be going against you is something that only the true great managers have. Unfortunaly for Avram Grant he lacks to many of this qualities!
Congratulations Spurs, very well done! |

RAMOS has now proved beyond doubt that hes the real deal ! This win against the odds and most peoples judgement showed that Spurs are at last going places ! .
As long as the board backs Ramos in the future and the players realize what a special One we have at Spurs now top four is very possible next year and more trophies will follow ! I have never been so sure the tide has turned for us and were going to enjoy special times in the future with Ramos @ Poyet COYS! you did us proud today ! |

Robbie Keane truly deserves a medal. Such a class player who is terribly underrated. Worked his way up through poorer levels and always stands out even when working alongside poor quality at all levels.
Bangs in goals for fun at Spurs and works like a demon for them. Passionate, truly dedicated and now a Champion, he is a Spurs Legend. |
