Carroll done me proud. I think he definitely added more than Hudd, more movement. Hopefully he gets more minutes and perhaps a start against West Ham next week.

Have to agree Carroll looked very good when he come on. We really need Kaboul, BAE, Dembele and Parker back.

A fellow Spurs fans? Cool!

Yeah, we are definitely missing Kaboul, Ekotto, Dembele, Parker. We've been so unlucky with injuries.

Carroll and Sandro with Dembele ahead of them is a very good lot of players in the middle of the park. He looks like a top young player. Also you guys need to shoot Gallas. Just put him down for good

AVB and spurs

, ade ruined the game, gallas is shit, dawson should be a starter and carroll looks a handy little player.

Spurs need Dembele and Kaboul back.

I think Spurs half time sub would have been better to have Carrol come on for Naughton. Then have Vertonghen go out left, and Sandro come in as a stepping out centre-half. Then play 4-3-2 with Carroll - Huddlestone - Lennon in midfield, and Bale alongside Defoe upfront. I know hindsight and all that, but I think 3 at the back when all three of the defenders aren't the quickest is a bit risky. Vertonghen is very good, don't get me wrong, but he isn't the quickest. I honestly think we should have scored more given we were going 3 forwards on 3 defenders, but we got very lazy after scoring the fourth goal.

Also someone really needs to shoot David Pleat. He got players mixed up at least 10 time. It was ridiculous by the end, calling Andre Santos 'Mikel Arteta'. Another good one was calling our goalkeeper 'Koscielny'. He regularly got Huddlestone and Sandro mixed up too, but that's arguably more forgivable.

his commentating was absolutely woeful and biased too.

vermoooooolen.

Pleat is terrible in general.

I was taking the piss of that one during the game.

My least favourite co-commentator has to be Mick McCarthy though. You could be watching the most exciting game ever played and he'll make it sound like 90 minutes working down a mine.

Also, if anyone didn't think that Adebayor's red card was deserved, you'll probably want to find a time-machine so you can go back to watching football in the 80s, or failing that, you can always watch Rugby instead.

That sort of tackle has no place in football. If it were me, I'd have those sort of tackles a 5 match ban. Tackles like that cause injuries. When one player puts a fellow professional's career at risk like that, the book should be thrown at them. It annoys me that a tackle like that incurs the same ban as a red card you can get for leaving an errant arm flailing out when jumping for a header. I know those can cause injury too (as Cristiano knows all too well) but it's not comparable to potential leg-breaking studs up tackles.
