Tottenham? Yes, Tottenham. Do you know about them? They are good.

I want to talk about Tottenham. Rewarding myself for working so hard lately.

The biggest clubs in england are Manchester United, Arsenal, Chelsea.

Group two Includes teams like Liverpool, Newcastle and Tottenham.

I hasten to add that the team I love, of the six mentioned above, has been the worst performer for more than 10 years by a long way. (what a confusing sentence!) But, for the first time in a long time there is ambition at white hart lane.

MANAGEMENT:
Martin Jol is a great manager. I already know that mutch. Warm, Hard and Smart. Thats all you need!
Some of the premiership managers are damaged goods as far as I can see. I ask myself who would I like to get stuck in a lift with out of the 20 prem. managers, and Benitez is too cerebral and a bit shy. Moyes is stroppy and arrogant, his success this year is accidental if you ask me. I respect Souness, I think he's bit off more than he can chew with NUFC tho. I like Robson, but he's not stable, Mourino is like a roman emperor crossed with a clown, Fergie needs to relax and Arsene Wenger can be a bit bitchie. Alan Curbishley is not hard enough, Chris coleman looks depressed. Mclaren is solid enough but a negative tactician. Stuart Pierce could be special. In amoungst that lot Martin Jol looks promising, thats all I'm trying to say.

THE SQUAD:
Young and British and wait for it......pretty good.
This summer looks like bringing more changes to an already unrecognisable squad. Mendes, Keane, Brown, Gardner may leave. Simon Davies (one of my favourite players) has gone to Everton but We have midfielders like Teemu Tainio (who!?, actually he's a good utility player from ..erm..another country) D'Allessandro (argentine and a top class playmaker) even Louis Figo and David Beckham as serious prospects?!!
Wayne Routledge is coming, Andrew Johnson might be too as Palace sink. This is just the tip of an iceberg of wheeler dealing done by the jedi master Frank Arnesen.

Players I Love: Micheal Carrick, Fredi Kanoute, Paul Robinson, Micheal Dawson, Andy Reid, Reto Zeigler, Eric Edman, Mido, Defoe, King, Stephen Kelly, Radek Cerny.

Players I think are nothing special: Micheal Brown, Timothee Atooooba.

Dear Santa, Please give us some good speedy skillful wingers. A striker to replace Robbie Keane who is going to Celtic or Newcastle. A world class midfielder to lift out Tottenham Youngsters and inspire them alongside the soon to be great Micheal Carrick.

Its a brand new team, with a blumin good manager, a smart connected director of football and a bearable chairman. At last, I can be proud of my team again.

Premiership next year:

1: Chelsea.
2: Manchester United.
3: Arsenal.
4: Liverpool.
5: Tottenham.
6: Man.City.
7: Middlesbro.
8: Bolton.
9: Aston Villa.
10: Newcastle United.

I think Charlton are going to struggle. Danny Murphy, you chose the wrong club.

Interesting - no Everton. 4th this season, 11th or worse for next. The Ipswich Town effect? Sticking your neck out there.
