It was one of those games Mr Nightingale. Nothing fell for us, we couldn't seem to shoot on target; infact, we couldn't even seem to shoot. Players wen't missing and after Jenas went off the whole team looked unbalanced. Berbatov was winning all the arial balls but Keane was nowhere to be seen. Could have done with a striker on the bench but Darren Bent was "ill", and he obviously doesn't think Pekhart is ready yet. |

Who was there left mid he was very good maybe we should sign him because we need someone like that on the left of our midfield.
Gilberto will need to play left mid, because he looked awful in defence. |

Looked like it jono i forgot about that and put him on the bench in my predicted team for the westham game. I forgot about it but thinking about it i think he will be out for a few weeks.
Looked nasty not sure if it is serious, might be one of those which just hurts alot but you can get over it quickly. |

Twisted ankle, needs 48 hours before it can be properly assessed. We can't really afford to lose him at the moment in this form, even though he has been a bit off in the last few games. |

What a tough match that was – a great learning curve for our players. PSV Einsdhoven are a Champions’ League quality team. They are very streetwise when it comes to European football: they don’t give you anything; you have to earn it.
I personally thought a draw would have been a fairer result but considering that they had some great chances to finish the tie, I’m thankful we’ve still got a fighter’s chance of making the quarter finals. We’re good enough to win in Holland but we must score first. The tie isn’t over yet. Poor Gilberto had a shocker of a debut. He’s fit but clearly not match fit - this was most evident when he resorted to rugby tackling their player when nearly clean through on goal and earned him a yellow card. O’Hara did OK when he replaced him. I was impressed with Taarabt when he came on – I’d play him a lot more often than Ramos is currently doing. He’s such a talented player, goes past people for fun. For PSV, Farfan and Afellay look very promising players. Although that donkey David Pleat was full of praise for their keeper, I’ve seen him several times and he’s very dodgey. A good shot stopper but very error prone. Talking of keepers, that was a brilliant save from Robinson to keep us in the tie. Ramos was very bold with his changes; it was like he was playing Russian Roullette with the opposition – next goal wins. They looked more likely near the end but thankfully they didn’t capitalise. If we end up going out it isn’t the end of the world. We’ve won the League Cup and I’m happy enough with that anyway - I’m not greedy. Whether we end up winning the UEFA Cup or not, Ramos will still make some big changes in the summer. |

I agree with the comment about Taarabt. His only problem is being too greedy. He was actually passing at the right moments last night though, so maybe Ramso has had words.

Gomes is a fantastic goal keeper. One of the top keeper s in Europe. Farfan is also a superb player. You've probably heard me talking about him a lot in the past. I really like the guy, and it was good to see him showcase his talents in front of an English audience. Shame Tottenham lost though. I want them to win the UEFA cup. |

I think Tottenham had a 'colourful' trip to Feyernood a good few years back when British fans weren't at their best. Its not game over but it'll be a tough task in Holland - I still think we may scrape through but it will not be easy. Gilberto had a disasterous debut, but was clearly not match fit - we didn't wake up until we went one down, you can't afford to do that on the european stage. |

Gomes is poor at dealing with crosses, and his decision making can be suspect. I wouldn't say he's one of the top keepers in Europe from what I've seen of him. But it's all about opinions I suppose. I agree about Farfan - I read about him back in 2004 when World Soccer had a feature on him. Most of the time I've seen him he's done pretty well. |

Tonight we just need to go straight at them. We have to score, so Lennon and Malbranque need to keep beating their men and whipping in the crosses. Lennon should cut inside when he has the chance and play into Keane's feet, and also run at defenders and try to win free kicks. We need to make the most of set pieces, and be careful not to give too many away.
Goals should be the only thing on the players minds for the first half of tonights game. Get them early and make it easier for ourselves. COYS! |
