Much as I like Long, he is far more effective coming on as a sub rather than when he starts,Starting Long and pushing Davis back hasn't worked. Would have preferred Reed or even Ward-Prowse to start alongside Wanyama today, which would allow Davis to play further forward
Whether you agree with Alpine or not, there is no need for some of the bullying abusive posts aimed towards him. He is as entitled to his opinion as we all are to our own. This is a discussion forum, and its a shame that discussions seem to very quickly go off topic and resort to personal attacks. For the record, I am too a little worried that we haven't yet signed a centre half and that its nearly a month since Toby joined Spurs.
I think you have missed some information from here, as I know for a fact that RANDERS(DEN) are playing Anders Svensson's ELFSBORG(SWE) in the 2nd round. An Anders return to St. Marys would be wonderful...
