*** OMT Spurs v Aston Villa ***

Seems to be good vocal atmosphere there tonight. Hearing every song making it's way over and above the commentary, which is good as the commentary features the clam Alan Smith!

Good performance but it does seem as if we are playing within ourselves. Hopefully saving some energy for the 2 harder fixtures this week. Now to just get a third goal, kill the game for good and then take off key players for the games ahead.
 
We are looking so much more defensively assured than in past seasons. We appear to hold a good defensive shape, work well as a defensive unit and certainly today, admittedly against a poor Aston Villa side, we haven't looked like conceding a goal.
 
Couple points:
- when the opposition are this cr@p and you have two other games this week, it wouldn't make any sense o go hell for leaether
- we're missing our only two attacking players (Son and Njie) with any pace. Not a surprise that we don't seem that dynamic

Agreed...good points.
 
Just not totally clicking for me. We're not playing bad just not brilliant either

I think we're playing exactly the way a top team does against a poor side: That is being in complete control without spending more energy than we need, while staying concentrated and avoiding stupid errors and injuries. Very un-sexy.

Now let's keep it up for the full 90.

I get that but if we get another here we can coast till the final whistle. A goal for them and well, lets not think about that. Finish them off and then sub off the players that need it.
