SPURS BEAT FIORENTINA IN FRIENDLY

Keane scores against fiorentinaSpurs had a good and well deserved win against Fiorentina, coming from behind twice to clinch it with about 2 minutes to go. I for one am really glad to see Giovani given a chance and playing very well, he was causing all sorts of problems for the Italians and unselfishly set-up Roman Pavlyuchenko for Spurs first goal after robbing the right back, drawing out the keeper and then just squaring it for Pav to tap home. If Gio can keep his mind on his football and stop all the partying, Spurs could have a real gem on their hands.

Robbie Keane is showing some good pre season form with another 2 goals after coming on as a second half sub and lets hope that continues into the new league season, as last year Robbie’s form really dipped and was loaned out to Celtic in the mickey mouse league, I mean the SPL! Robbie’s first goal you can see below, a great finish.

YOUNG BOYS IN CHAMPIONS LEAGUE QUALIFYER!

Well, it happened, I got the draw I and I would think most Spurs fan wanted in the Champions League qualifying round, Young Boys of Switzerland. Out of the potential other ties we could have faced, click here to see them, this is the easiest, certainly on paper at least. Although they did beat Fenarbache in the last round, 1-0 in Turkey to, Spurs should have to much for them home and away.

So if Tottenham don’t win this match over both legs, not only will they be the laughing stock of the league but they don’t deserve to be competing at that level, period. So even though it looks the easiest tie on paper, let’s hope it doesn’t turn out to be a disaster!
