****OMT - TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR vs WOOLWICH ARSEnal****

[Nigeyman]

nice... that gif is only good with the cat & his wide mouth....

 

[diego_maradona]

Ahh first I thought you meant O'Hara

 

[Nigeyman]

Lamela doesnt even make the bench.

injured aint he??

 

[Mumorn]

Arsenal subs. Viviano, Jenkinson, Mertesacker, Flamini, Ozil, Podolski, Ju-Young Park.

 

[Mumorn]

Ahh first I thought you meant O'Hara

Same, considering Rose played right midfield.

 

[rosenthal]

Yes Lamela is injured, him Holtby, Sigurdsson, Townsend, Defoe are all out of the squad due to injury or lack of fitness
In addition to the more long term and well known injured players

 

[AdamB]

Obika and Kane on the bench....may as well just have named 5 subs

 

[Mumorn]

Fair enough if he's injured.

Surely, we have someone better than Obika? I've have just gone with McEvoy.

Agree with you. Obika has never looked good enough, is now 23 and never really been a success when out on loan in the lower leagues. Should just release him

which one's Obika again?? is he the one with the good goal return for our u 21's?

The one we're never ever going to get rid of

 

[milo]

whats brave is giving Rose virtually no protection with Eriksen in front of him to go up against the pace of Walcott/Ozil/Chamberlain. Fear that could be our doing in.

I think Ade will spend plenty of time out on the left

 

[rosenthal]

which one's Obika again?? is he the one with the good goal return for our u 21's?

Yes he was the U21 Premier League top goal scorer last season, and did a good job for our first team some years ago as a teenager in pre season on our US tour

 

[AdamB]

4-4-2 away to the league leaders giving a 19 year old kid his full debut in the centre of the park. That's brave to me.

I'm just glad we're playing what we consider to be our best team. We have decent players and, bar one Harry game against Arsenal, I cant think of a list of games where we've had success by changing our tactics to counter an opposition

 

[onlyme]

Our subs - Friedel, Fredericks, Fryers, Capoue, Chadli, Kane, Obika

Obika!! I had not given up on him-if he got confident who knows..??
Even our defenders are attack minded..

You're a real ray of sunshine this afternoon

 

[AdamB]

Obika is a.k.a. Simon Dawkins Mk II

 

[DHSF]

Startin to get a bit nervous now. As long as we dont get hammered.

I am worried about Walnut and his pace. I dont want Lloris sent off arghhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[AdamB]

You're a real ray of sunshine this afternoon

Prefer to call a spade a spade! I don't rate Obika in the slightest

 

[onlyme]

He is the one who never made the bench for the EL games when we were desperate for goals in the EPL.

I don't think he is useless and obviously neither does TT.
