That one is worse.

I rest my case

The on in the Mexico 86 book was the most sought after. Worth 5 on sawpsies

I will have a bet wih you that no one will beat spurs this season playing 3-5-2 when Bale and Lennon start. £50 to charity. Okay?
-
So it seems like no other premier league manager agrees with you that 3-5-2 is the way to beat Spurs then.
-
So we don't play Lambert because if he was injured we wouldn't be able to play him. Brilliant logic.
-
Fair enough, I think we play against Spurs by reducing the space and delivery to their main threat. You think we play them by giving their main threat more space, especially space to run into, where he's crucified far better full backs than Clyne. I gurantee you one thing, Adkins won't strait 3-5-2 tomorrow and I doubt anyone else will this season when playing Spurs, I can't begin to imagine why that would be, it works in Italy don't it?

I did hear the hilarious "empty seats my lord" song. Always makes me LOL

Two terrible teams.

I wrote to Kerry Dixon when I was 8 years old. We had to write to famous person for a school project and Kerry Dixon was my favourite player at the time as he'd just broken into the England team. I got a letter back, a signed photo and an invitation to join the Kerry Dixon fan club. I still have th picture somewhere along with my signed picture of Mark Wright, the ex Saints player not the knob from TOWIE.

Were you on there when B3nners challenged him to a boxing match? That was hilarious.

Yu should worry about people on spaz boards that want to meet up for 'chats' they are usually as hard as Romsey Stu.

If we get anyone from Blackpool, I hope it's Thomas Ince.
-
Jamie wants him if Adkins gets sacked.
-
Ha, fully agree with this. I played with my mate the last two weeks who has been playing for about 6 months. Every shot I took he'd try to give advise which was very frustrating and actually made me worse. The lesson today basically told me to do pretty much the opposite of what he'd told me!
-
Well I got a cheap set off eBay, have played the last two weeks and had my first lesson this morning. Wow. What a difference. After slicing the ball all over the place last week and barely being able to hit it 100 yards when I did hit it properly I hit 100 balls on the driving range after the lesson and managed to drive almost 200 yards and get the ball within 10-20 yards of the 100 and 125 yard flags with a 7 iron probably 8 out of 10 times.The instructor was brilliant, broke it down to make it easy even videoed me on his iPad then went back throw it to show me where I was going wrong. I know the distances won't sound much to seasoned gofers but considering where I was last week the improvement from one lesson was incredible.
-
Yep, he'd be perfect. Maybe in January?? He went off on one at the time and accused us of tapping Phililips up.
-
Check your PMs Jamie. As I said, the tapping up allegation was nothing to do with us, the player wants the move and the chairman is p*ssing about. And remember it next time you make a snidey comment at me saying that I'd heard something.
-
2-3 Spurs. Or if we go with Rooneys 3-5-2 0-8 Spurs.
-
Oh look another transfer deal I called absolutely spot on at the time. I'm sure those I PMd at the time will confirm this is exactly what I said happened. Just remember this everytime people mock me for reporting stuff I hear.
-
So what?

I have now see it and :lol::lol: -
Such a shame. And wasn't it you that brought up who you'd play with and been coached under. Want to share it and justify your instance on it with reasons and explanations other than giving bale more space to play in because he have some anyway? In sure you can quickly google 'reasons to play 3-5-2'
-
Which is why we double up on their wide men. We don't have players or equal ability to mark and track them. Anyway. If you were manager of Saints and I was manger of spurs and I'd saw you lined up 3-5-2 against me I'd resign if we failed to win comfortably.
-
Yeah course I did that. If it was me I'd go 4-4-2. I'm not a fan of it as I think it's a bit dated but Spurs biggest threat comes from the flanks so I'd shut those off by doubling up on Bale and Lennon wide. This would mean AL would have a defensively responsibility as hed need to support Fox. Id play a relatively deep defensive shape reducing the space behind the defence foe their pace to get in behind. I'd have MS playing in the defensive midfield role picking up Dempsey and/or Sigurdsons runs and Davis being busy trying to close down the ball out to the wings at source, making Spurs play a short passing game rather than being able to get diagonal balls in behind the full backs, which they will try. Going forward I'd go with RL and JR. I'm not convinced by Spurs defence and think that like us they don't have a dominant centre half of RL can get some joy from quality balls played into the back post where he can attack it. The onus would then be on AL and JP to get forward to support as well as JR to be mobile, busy and create space for RL as well as make runs to pick the ball from him. We need to be a bit more aggressive and direct against Spurs and get the ball forward quickly, I don't mean long ball but not tippy tippy stuff as they have very good forward players who could take us apart, but if we can get at them and get it forward quickly we can put them under pressure and given them something to think about. It may not be the key to winning but it's a lot more realistic than just giving Bale more space to play in because he'll have loads anyway. Oh didn't mention I'd played the game or what level at did I.......
