The Tottenham Blip

We've been here before, haven't we? Wolves and Stoke.  I may even throw Hull into the mix.

Tottenham Hotspur 0 - 1 Wigan.

Was Cudicini to blame for the goal? Yes. Was Cudicini to blame for our performance? No.

When are we going to learn that you cannot turn up and expect to win? To be fair to the lads, the result wasn't solely based on our complacency, but more so on our Champion's League hangover.

We have shown our naivety today.

Terrible, shocking and utterly horrible.

"We were poor today, we got what we deserved. We started slow today and couldn't get going. They defended great and we couldn't open them up.  Only Niko Kranjcar had some idea on how to open them up. We've had a bad day. It didn't go our way." - Harry Redknapp being interviewed on the BBC.

In other news, the main rumour in the Shelf today is that Robbie Keane is on his way to Newcastle United.  Another boyhood club?

PS. Why did Harry decide to play two holding midfielders (Huddlestone and Palacios) against Wigan, but chose to attack Manchester City two weeks ago? Just a thought.
