Luis Suarez made his Liverpool comeback last night following his eight-match ban during last
night's 0-0 draw with Tottenham. You can imagine that the Uruguayan's final instructions before
coming on as a substitute probably didn't go: "Barge over the guy with the Afro and then kick
someone in the stomach.

By far the best arrival of Transfer Deadline Day was Benoit Assou Ekotto's crazy afro. The
Tottenham left-back has ditched his cornrows to rejuvenate his Jackson Five look, and we can only
applaud. Excellent work, Benoit.
After August's rioting in London, Tottenham full-back Benoit Assou Ekotto was one of the most vocal
and active footballing voices suggesting that the game could be doing more to deal with social
problems in their local area. The Cameroon international took to the streets to see some of the
worst affected areas for himself after [.
Tottenham Hotspur tonight moved level on points with second placed Manchester United after a
performance of patience and high quality.
Everton turned up at The Lane as many teams now do, to sit deep and try and frustrate Spurs.
It's to the credit of Harry Redknapp and his team that they didn't get frustrated and saw the
opposition off to seal the points.
So the Premier League season is finally here, it's Tottenham Hotspur's opening game versus
Everton..........
That's how the preview for this one should have started, but the unfortunate and unseemly
rioting of early August put paid to Spurs opening fixture. Now this is the game in hand it's vital
that Spurs get maximum points if they want to be taken seriously as title challengers.
It wasn't pretty. On a cold December Sunday afternoon, Tottenham Hotspur saw off a resilient
Sunderland to record a 1-0 victory and get back to winning ways in the Premier League.
Winning ugly is the sign of champions. Not getting carried away here, I'm not suggesting Spurs
are going to win the title, there's a chance of it, but Manchester City are a scarily good outfit
and their neighbours are impossible to write off.
Tottenham Hotspur v Sunderland, White Hart Lane, Sunday 18th December, 3pm Kick
off
So on Thursday night Spurs European adventure for this season came to an end, despite a 4-0 win
at Shamrock. The perceived wisdom is that this is a blessing in disguise and can leave Harry
Redknapp and his team to concentrate on getting Spurs back into the Champions League.
Tottenham are currently in a spot of bother in the Europa League as they find themselves 2-1 down
to Greek side PAOK. Spurs went two goals down, which was hilarious to an onlooking Benoit Assou
Akotto who declared that he was laughing out loud as PAOK took the lead. Meanwhile, Arsenal
midfielder Jack Wilshere was [.
Saturday 26th November 2011, 3pm Kick-off. The Hawthorns.
It's a rare Saturday 3pm Saturday kick off for Tottenham Hotspur this week. Not that the game
time should faze Harry Redknapp's dazzling Spurs side, on the face of it, not much could or should
at the moment.
I don't know about anyone else, but it kinda frustrates me when I watch football matches in the
Premier League and I hear commentators and the like praising a player or stating how important he
is... yet in my opinion that said player is actually massively over-rated, and rarely contributes
much to a game at all.
