Assou-Ekotto Gallas Jagielka Torosidis
Abu Parker
Ba Modric Joaquin
Cisse
Subsitutes : Khune,King,Gough,Rolland,Savic,Namli,Crespo,Gomelt,Barriveira.
Match Report :
This match was very,very boring.Nothing happened in the first half and the only talking point in the second half was Gallas's goal from a Modric corner.We dominated possession getting 59% of it,but wasted our chances,only four of our fifteen shots on target.I would like to write a longer match report,but there's nothing to write about.

Match Report :
With Luka Modric as capatain,I was interested to see how he would do.We absolutely ran Olypiakos ragged and after captain Modric on 17 minutes scored I knew we would win.They only managed 5 shots compared to our 12.New signings Ola John and Artjoms Rudnevs both scored,Rudnevs assisting John.Even without key players Bale,Walker and Sandro we still thrashed them,wich sows great strength in depth.

"Ah,Felipe,what a pleasant surprise."
"Hello,Daniel.I wanted to meet you today because there is a certain player I have my eye on..."
"Who is it?"
"Dejan Lovren of Olympique Lynonnais."
"Assuming you've called me here because of difficulties with the price,how much do they want?"
"£16.3 million."

"I know Daniel,but he's a player who can not only have an impact now,but also in the future.I really believe he's a must-have."
"OK,OK,I'll see what I can do."
"Thanks!"
"My pleasure."

"I know,that goal and assist were amazing!"
"They were weren't they?"
"Well Terry,that's I called for.Bye!"
"Bye!"

Match Report : I was worried Parkin struck early for Prient,but there was no need.After the goal we restricted the to ONE more shot.I thought Joaquin's shot was going to hit the post,but it just sneaked in.On 42 minutes Alex Sandro played a beautiful ball for Cisse,but Jones saved.One minute later,however Cisse managed to put it home.Cisse completed his double 13 minutes later after Ba played him on.Chorley then put the ball in his own net for the final goal of the game after he tried to clear it.
Man Of the Match : Papiss Cisse

NEW SIGNING ALERT!Dejan Lovren (£12 million,Olympique Lyonnais) and Michael Ballack (Free,Unattached)
Match Report: It was yet another win for Tottenham and even more goals for super-signing Papiss Cisse.In the first half it was fairly boring,Cisse's goal being the only real talking point.But in the second half the game was much more exciting,with Cisse scoring his second goal just two minutes into the second set of 45 minutes.Then,three minutes after,Cisse scored again and it loomed like it was all over for Malaga.But they fought back bravely and a goal in the 91st minute gave them hope.But it was not to be as Tottenham won the match with a one goal advantage.
 
Tottenham 1 - 1 Cardiff
Lineup :
Muslera
Lovren King Jagielka
Sandro Ballack Parker
John Modric Joaquin
Cisse
Subsitutes : Khune,Savic,Gough,Gallas,Ba,Bahebeck (Joaquin,46),Ledesma(Ballack,74),Torosidis,Abu,Rudnevs,Alex Sandro,Crespo.
Match Report : After a fairly boring first 15 fifteen minutes,Cardiff struck through a Jon Parkin header.Luckily,5 minutes later Sandro struck from a well-taken Modric free kick.The next big incident was Modric's red card,just after half time,which - unfortunately - was deserved.After that I got a big scare when Gunnarsson shot just wide.Cardiff kept pressing and Earnshaw had a goal ruled out for offside.The only other chance after that was when Jagielka played a beautiful ball through to Bahebeck,who hd his shot saved by Marshall.All in all I'm pretty disappointed with this result,if we'd taken a few more of are chances,we would have won.

Match Report:
It was a nervous game,neither side willing to take many chances.The first chance of the game came on the 23rd minute,Christian Benitez shooting just wide.From then on Liverpool dominated the game and should of gone ahead when Kuyt missed a sitter,shooting wide from an open goal.3 Minutes lateer however,Suarez headed it home from a Lucas corner.We didn't look like we would make a comeback,as we missed the many chances that were presented to us.Things were not improved when Walker got a second yellow for diving.But,in the 88th minute Phil Jagielka scored with a header from a Modric corner and we held out until the final whistle to get a draw.

MEETING BETWEEN LUIZ FELIPE SCOLARI AND TERRY MCDERMOTT
"Hello Felipe!"
"Hello Terry! Long time no see!"
"I know!Well what's this meeting about?"
"Tactics for the next game against City."
"So,what were you thinking?"
"Well,in a word,defensive.City's attack is superior to our's but if we can hold are defense we maybeable to score a late goal.
"Yes,well if we sit back we obviously have a less of a chance of scoring maybe a Counter attacking tactic?"
"Yeah,that would be good.But if we play with a more rigid style,then we can defend better."
"I have to agree with you on that one."
"Alright then,what about a 5-4-1 with a defensive midfieder?"
"Make it a 5-4-1 with a attacking midfielder and you've got a deal."
"Okay,Okay.You drive a hard bargain Terry."
"Thanks.By the way,William Gallas has completed his move to Roma."
"Good.Bye!"
"Bye!"
 
MEETING WITH LUKA MODRIC
"Hello Luka ,you called?"

"Then why do I not have an improved contract offer on the table."
"Because we will not except offer under £50million, and we cannot afford to renew your contract."

"That is non-negotibale.Goodbye."
(Scolari stalks out of the room.)
