Vorm and Villa


We're at the business end of the season now, and by the looks of it we're gonna end up either 5th or 6th again this season, but keep those chins up as we've been able to blood a few youngsters and by the looks of it Harry Kane could end up being a world beater! By the way Terry you mug, voting for that average Liverpool player over Kane for Player of the year.. We know what you are and we know your game!

Anyway we welcome back Tim to the Lane today,  he split opinion amongst us fans but hopefully we will get the 3 points and the fans won't go too over board with the banter!

With Vorm likely to start in goal again today, it would be great for him to keep another clean sheet and prove his worth, as it looks more likely he will be our number one next season. Got a feeling DL will cash in Hugo during the summer (lets be realistic he has a history of doing it)

Anyway lets hope for a cracking game today and loads of goals!

We're going for a 5-2 Win to the mighty Spurs!

Is Levy the problem

Daniel Levy, some fans love him some fans hate him, but lets look into the facts over the last 24 months.

Flash back to when we had just beaten Arsenal at the Emirates. We we're going well in the Champions League, Bale and VDV we're pulling the strings and things we're looking good. A few weeks later the transfer window opened. Yet we didn't take advantage of it, had we signed for example a Scotty Parker or an Aguero, the latter not as far fetched as you may have thought! We more than likely would of made decent progress from the season before. Instead we carried on with what we had and we ended up finishing 5th and got to the quarter finals of the Champions league, which in fairness wasn't too bad of a season, compared to recent times.



That summer there was alot of unrest, 'Arry and Levy's relationship started to breakdown over the Modric situation, add to that the sales of target man Crouch, *who played a big part in getting us to the CL! 'Captain Keane' and our number one right back at the time in Hutton and you could see that it was going to be a long season. The arrival of Parker and Ade lifted the fans and we went on up to the new year with a shout of winning the title! That January again we we're all hoping to kick on from our strong position. We were all hoping for a Kaka, or a Tevez but what happened, 'Arry wasn't backed and we sold our no 3 striker in Pav, and replaced him with a free signing in Saha, add to the mix an aging centre back to cover the injured Dawson and that combined with off the field issues ment we missed out on the champions league by one point!

The summer saw 'Arry getting the chop, with the unconvincing AVB given the job at the Lane, throw in former Cult hero Steffen Freund as part of the back room staff *Can just imaging out of all the people AVB wanted as his no two.... Freund was his first choice! Now AVB has seen 2 of his big game players sold during the summer, and it was totally out of his hands, he can't be blamed for taking a job where the Chairman doesn't really want to spend the dosh if he can help it. So is it a case of AVB being sold a dud, or has Levy got it wrong with sacking the man that gave us wins against the might of the premiership and the giants of Europe?

Now we're heading into the final few weeks of 2012 and we are now looking more like a mid-table Spurs team from the mid 90's than a Champions league team of 2010!
