What gives gary lineker the right to say Barca will beat us on Saturday?
the stats say over the 10 meetings we have won 3 barca have won 3 and drawn 4 so I'd say its pretty even. but then throw in Wembly the scene of many cup wins its like a 2nd home.
any thoughts?

thatguy,
What's a strange image, my user name?
Its just a mickey take of my own team's club crest (Spurs). Its meant to be a cockerel on a football but looks more like a chicken on a basketball - thats all.

The cockerel's not a proportionate size to the football, that's why

..ah but of course . I pictured an actual chicken on a basketball..now thats actually quite wierd.Spurs had an interesting season by the way, I would have loved for you lot to have been in the Champions League again next season but unfortunately City have bought thier way in there somehow.Its a shame really because I felt that Spurs added a lot of colour and excitement to the Champions League this season...Well done mate!

There's a thousand excuses doing the rounds why Spurs didnt retain 4th but the main reason has to be the fact teams like West Ham, Wigan & Blackpool all took 4pts from us.
It is a shame, it was nice whilst it lasted. Do i think its the end of our Champions League journey? i do hope not. Here's hoping we push for it again next season & you never know in football, so fingers crossed.

I'm sure that Spurs will make a real fist of it next season..I suppose if the likes of Arsenal or Chelsea have a wobbly season, then you guys could sneak in to the top 4 again.The Chelsea squad is getting on a bit and if they really bottle the appointment of their next manager then they could perhaps fall out of contention but you never really know.How do you feel about the Europa League?Are you also of the same opinion as Defoe about it being a bit of a waste of time?

thatguy,
I have said all season that i would like to avoid the Europa League like the plague. Its nice having the bragging rights over Liverpool & i guess it at least shows consistency by finishing top 5 again but i will not enjoy, not so much the Thursday night footy, but the Sunday 3 O'clock games is the bad bit for me.
Then again, who's to say we'll even get through the group stages, so we could be out of it before we know it & then everything will be simple - just the domestic trophies to worry about.
Although City have finished 3rd this time around, if Tevez leaves, i'm not sure they will be able to replicate the season they've just had. I'm not suggesting they'll be the ones who'll drop out of the Top 4, but i think they're more likely to than Arsenal or Chelsea.
For me though, it would be brilliant if we could push Arsenal out of it - that would really put the cat amongst the pigeons in terms of bragging rights.

Lineker has every right to express his opinion - just as Hansen did when he said "You'll never win anything with kids".

Subsbench,
Do you still think Lineker "knows nowt" or was he 100% accurate?
