Short sightedness could cost us top 4 again.

I guess by that baz you mean the failure to sign cahill, or another cb ?
Well it might cost us 4th, simply because as the article says the team is more sound in defence with king playing.
I never rated bassong and was slated for my comments when we first signed him, and now others on here are saying the same thing, but he could get better with a run of games and a bit of confidence building, his problem is that he gets brushed aside too easily and has to learn to dig in .
Dont know how long we have to wait for gallas to return, its really farcical that we cant get a totally fit squad of players, there is always someone crocked who is key to the team.

Yea agree with that, also his decision making is questionable at times when all he needs to do is knock the ball out of play 'or row z it .

He (caulker) shouldnt be on loan when we have this problem lee ! how did i know this was going to happen ? lol, but cahill isnt the answer imho.
Corluka should be played at cb and not bassong, harry wanted bassong sold in the summer and we still have him at spurs, and we concede goals with the bloke, but being in a squad with king and gallas should have brought his game on a bit
If we can get gallas back then maybe not to much damage will be done !
I dont like to slate any spurs player, but i didnt like the signing of bassong when it happened.
Would like to see the bloke prove me wrong though , if he can get his act together, he has to go out there and defend like king, who is a great role model for any cb.

Guys ...Caulker has been returned to us by Swansea with I think, an ankle injury and is out for 2 months I last heard....
Bentley too, got injured whilst at the Spams ...
Our players injury curse is not confined to just when they play for us it seems.

Weren't people saying the same about Scott Parker even though he got player of the year? People were saying Gallas would not be the answer and until his injury he was briliant ditto Woodgate.

Hi Baz ! sorry i wasnt being rude by not answering this the other day, i left myself signed in after going offline.
Regarding cahill, from what i have seen he is an (ok) cb, imo he hasnt the defensive qualites we need at spurs and at £17 mill bolton were having a laugh, they were conceding goals for fun a couple of weeks back with cahill playing, although to be fair to them they have a long injury list that is probably affecting their early season form.
I always wanted parker, him and a fully fit sandro are a formidable midfield force, protecting the back four but getting the midfield going by breaking up and starting moves.
Gallas i have always said would be good for spurs, shame he is injured.
