Arsenal
- Both Clint Dempsey and Jermain Defoe are major doubts for the game against Arsenal, meaning misfiring former Gunner Adebayor is likely to continue to lead the line.
- A bright cameo from Gylfi Sigurdsson against West Ham has done his chances of starting no harm and he is likely to compete for a spot with Holtby on the left, with Bale continuing in the free role.
- Perhaps Villas-Boas' main selection dilemma will be who to start at centre-back, with Vertonghen likely to revert to his favoured position alongside either Dawson or Caulker.
- Abou Diaby picked up a slight calf problem against Villa but should be available, though there could be a return for Lukas Podolski on the left in place of the Frenchman.
- That change would see Cazorla move back into the free role and Jack Wilshere drop back into the double pivot once again.
- Gibbs is likely to remain sidelined, meaning new signing Monreal should keep his place in the backline, and Wenger has confirmed that Sagna will miss out, so Jenkinson will keep his place.
Vertonghen had Giroud in his pocket, nicely folded up.
Is it even possible for an arsenal fan to convert and become a tottenham fan? That's just wrong.
Why Vertonghen has low rate? He was man of the match for me
Giroud was a disaster. No way in hell does he deserve anything higher than a 6. How Wenger lets him complete the match is a mystery for me. Jenkinson was quite good in my opinion, no point in putting Ramsey at RB after Jenks' substitute, he was completely out of position most of the time. Mertesacker goal was actually owngoal Bale. Cazorla isn't a winger, Podolski should've started the game. I understand that we don't really have a striker apart from Giroud, but he's a worse solution than putting Walcott there. At least Walcott presents a danger for the defense, Giroud merely walks about, out of position losing possession every time. Patricovic: Go be somewhere else.
I think they got Vermaelen and Vertonghen mixed up. It was vertonghen who got 2 last man tackles not Vermaelen
Spurs will humiliate gunners tonight. 3-0. Bale will score again.
Good for you, I'm fine though, no need for me to fuck off. As a Gunner, however, I feel obligated to call you a cunt from now on.
don't let me down TOT! keep scoring.. 2~0 first half I am only a gambler not a TOT fan.
Vermaelen made 2 last man tackles? You must be missing something. It was Vertonghen, who made them (on Giroud in the beginning of the 1st half; on Walcott in 2nd, if my memory doesn't fail me). FIX IT and change his rating, because 6.9 is a joke, objectively considering he was one of best 3 players on the pitch.
@Elbeast, wish Vertonghen was more like me and forgot about all the stuff in his pocket. Finds it later when it's too late.
@Patricovic: You are a disgrace to humanity, a man with no principles.
The Arsenal goal was a Bale own goal.
Likely to be a draw.
Over or TOT to win. Gunners will face the strongest TOTTENHAM this time.
