Tottenham Hotspur Vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers, 2012 Premier League: Lineups And Live Match Thread

Photo

Happy Spursday, Spursland! There seem to be lots of things happening today. Transfers are close to going down or are being rejected. Also, there is some football to be played. Tottenham Hotspur welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to White Hart Lane as Harry Redknapp's men attempt to put even more pressure on the Manchester Clubs at the top of the table.

Harry Redknapp is taking this match very seriously and has made only one change, bringing back Scott Parker, who missed the Everton fixture through injury. Wolves seem to have named a fairly defensive lineup, going 4-4-1-1 with Steven Fletcher playing alone up top and David Edwards in the hole behind him. Use your Mick McCarthy GIF's accordingly.

Tottenham Hotspur XI (4-4-1-1): Friedel; Walker, Dawson, Kaboul, Assou-Ekotto; Lennon, Parker, Modric, Bale; Van der Vaart; Adebayor

Subs: Cudicini, Bassong, Rose, Kranjcar, Livermore, Defoe, Pavlyuchenko.

Wolverhampton Wanderers XI (4-4-1-1): Hennessey, Foley, Berra, Johnson, Ward, Kightly, Henry, Frimpong, Jarvis, Edwards, Fletcher.

No word on the Wolves bench yet. I'll post it in the comments once I have it. This game is not on tv in the USA or Canada. It is, however, available on Foxsoccer.tv. As a result, I'm ok with you all discussing alternative means of viewing in the comments unless the big boss man feels differently.

Essien on the bench for Chelsea today. Obviously not good for us if Essien is anything near his former self in the run-in, but it’s awesome to see him back. He’s had a couple of terrible injuries over the last 2-3 years.

“The other week, one of the lads told him (Ade) that he had not paid his ยฃ50 fine for being the worst player in training on a Friday morning. One of the lads said to him: ‘Bloody hell, Ade, you are on 200 grand a week and you can’t afford to pay a ยฃ50 fine!’ He replied: ’Don’t insult me, it’s 225!’.” Redknapp added: “He certainly isn’t getting that here.”

“I’d be talking rubbish if I said people wanted to stay at Tottenham just because we’re playing good football. I’d be dreaming. If you want to keep the best players, we have to find a way of doing a deal that’s near to what they can earn elsewhere, otherwise it will be a problem.

Gotcha. Eh. I know Indiana is legitimately good so I wasn’t all that surprised. The officiating was pretty shocking but much like us at Stoke, our performance wasn’t up to snuff either. Not saying we’re going to kill the Hoosiers because they lack quality, but rather I haven’t seen OSU play all that well for a few games, and I think they’re due for one of those “Hey, remember we’re one of the best teams in the nation, too?” games from them.

by ahowie on Jan 14, 2012 3:29 PM GMT up reply actions  

The officiating was shocking, but shocking to both sides.

OSU can’t claim they were jobbed, because the stats don’t play that out. Too many fouls, but they were equally called.

Just a couple really bizarre ones that stood out. I don’t know if you read Grantland at all but Titus detailed it a couple of his rankings ago. Sully was called for a charge that took him out of the game for foul trouble that was probably one of the worst calls of the entire season.

I love his hold-up play and distribution, but there are times you just want the striker to go for it and see what happens. When they crowd so many men in there, you can always get a deflection, or handball, or rebound or something.

I was wondering this

Hopefully I’m just reading too much into it, but do we think he maybe has lost a bit of confidence? Hopefully not, considering how important that is for a striker, but he does seem to be looking to play the layoff first this match.

Okay, so, refs

It wasn’t a corner and Ade was onside. They screwed up both times. It sucks. But we also weren’t good enough and should have been up 1-0 before that corner. We should have equalized before Ade’s goal was disallowed. We’re not finishing our chances and the marking on the corner sucks. Hopefully we just go win the damn game and we can forget about human beings making understandable mistakes on very close calls.

You can’t counter attack if there’s no space behind the defense.

Furthermore, aside from Bale & BAE I don’t see Lennon, Walker, VDV and surely not Kaboul providing the sort of service to breakdown a shell defence.
