Flamini Victim Given 4 Weeks

I don't quite agree with Tim Sherwood. I wanted Flamini sent packing. With Milan experiencing problems in midfield of their own, a red card for the old Arse boy and a suspended Gattuso could have only worked in our favour. Anyway, poor Charlie's got his results back today and in all honesty it could've been a lot worse.

"As we expected when my leg cooled down, everything about my ankle looked worse than just after the game," Corluka told Sportske Novosti. "My ankle is swollen. It hurts so much, but the doctors are saying that things are not as bad as it seems. Luckily nothing is broken, but I will still be out for at least four weeks.

Foreign referees. They'd book Crouchy for jumping to high and give the same punishment for a leg-breaking challenge. Still though, I'm sure Howard would've done the same.

Another defender injured. Anyone seen Hutton recently?

Where's the issue?

On a day when Harry's claimed to be in the right concerning a sale of Peter Crouch to Villa back in World Cup year of '02 and odds for Redknapp to leave us fell faster than West Ham have down the league this season, Corluka (and I'm sure all of us as well) have labelled the rumoured departure as 'ridiculous'.

He won't leave. He can't leave. This season, if anything, could prove and illustrate one thing for Tottenham Hotspur Football Club and that is that we can keep a manager for more than a season or two.

Charlie had this to say:
"Harry made some big changes when he came to Tottenham," he told Sky Sports News.
"We were bottom of the league when he came and now we at the top end of the Premier League so I think the rumours of him going off is ridiculous.
"Why would someone go off when the club is doing do well and when he have good players at the club.
"So I think he will stay and work with us and hopefully we will do some great things with him."

The playing staff at Spurs are happy. Redknapp's happy. It's one of those rare occasions where us as fans are more delighted with the club at the moment, let alone satisfied. I seem to be looking forward to games more now, it's a strange feeling, let's hope it lasts.
Am I missing an issue?

Regards.

Spurs to steal right back

Tottenham have today entered the race for right back Kyle Naughton from Premiership bottlers Sheffield United, according to Sky sources. The 21 year old was part of the Sheffield side that lost to Burnely in football's most lucrative prize, the play-off final.

I'm not to sure on this guy, he never really stood out in the final this year but there are signs that could prove he is a very good player. Considering the fact that both Everton and Aston Villa are interested in the player is promising, it is a ray of sunlight on this very dry piece of speculation. Also, considering we have Hutton, Corluka and Chimbonda available at right back, Kyle must be something special if Harry believes he is capable of challenging these players for the right back spot.

To be honest I've seen the lad play once and he never really stood out. I don't think this would be a good signing and believe it would be a waste of money, all £5m of it; he'd never displace Corluka, Hutton or Chim.

Oh how I love the pre-season optimism.

Ben
