Spursex
Alert Team
So our first natural break in the season and it's not a mind-numbing break for slow-mo friendlies.
For once we don't have to bite our fingernails (I never do) polish our four-leaf clovers, avoid walking under ladders, kiss our lucky charms, cross fingers, arms and legs as we await news of how many of our hero's that we sent to the front came back intact...
Jose has been in charge for a while now, I think he's set his stall out and we've all got a good notion of the type of set-up he's going to run and tactically what he thinks he's had to do and is going to do; it looks as if Harry's injury has derailed his plans and at one point it appeared like he couldn't get beyond the disaster this was for him, the team, the players and the club, let alone the fans.
But a couple of dirty, nasty, long ball counter-attacking wins seems to have lifted his and our spirits; now these wins could be seen as 'a sign of his winning mentality' against superior opposition - so let's do what fans do and skip over the cowardly timid losses (according to some) where our 'weak' 'Spursey' mentality was much in evidence awaiting Jose and his exorcism team and dark arts.
So are you happy?
