Sherwood seemed to have a problem with any of our recent foreign signings.
Lowest point since Graham - factDoes remind me of the Sherwood quote, though!
"It's only in the last few weeks that I've heard him speak French for the first time. I called him on it because I had thought he was from Harlow or somewhere!"
Judging by the atmosphere at the Lane we hate any man in lillywhiteDont we all.....?
I agree. And I agreed under Sherwood too.
I would have felt the same under AVB, however I still feel that it was he who started the rot here, with his instant dismissal of VDV, and the way he treated Lloris, BAE, Lamela and Ade plus the evidence of him doing the same at Chelsea.
The players here have it easy and its evident that there is a lack of work ethic from some.
My point here is that Ive backed Ade all the way, but if this is true, then Im 100% behind Poch and the likes of Kane.
The difference is that my stance was the same when it was other players attitude under fire....yet there are people who will no doubt come out in a masturbatory frenzy over the "DISRUPTIVE LAZY ADE" revelations, who 6 months ago buried their heads in the sand when it was players like Sandro under scrutiny, and chose to slate manager.
Sherwood: Holtby & Sandro.. two players who run around a lot and not many fans would question if they put in a shift, not overly gifted but at least tryThen we slate certain managers for trying to weed out the problem players, and laud others for doing the same

Poch/AVB: Ade & Kaboul (potential Capoue too?): slow moping types who can't even have the right boots on while on the bench for 60+ minutes
I know which type of player I'd like weeded out
BAE I'd put in the Ade-Kaboul French-speaking lazy group. His problem with Lloris is way overstated, he was signed after the season had started and we had Friedel in goal who had been MOTM in most our games. Problem with VDV? Bollocks. VDV wanted to go to Germany for personal reasons and the club allowed him to. Lamela he chose to ease into the side and the player himself had said he was trying to hide a small injury when joined. Everyone has a problem with Jan, who thinks he should only play CB even though our 1 LB was injured he kicked up a bit of a stink and is now doing the same with Poch. Hudd he thought was too slow and Naughton & Livermore not good enough, cant see the problem with that.
If the story is true it's the 2nd Spurs manager he has had a problem with and what 5th in his career? It's not just the in house shit that is the problem. It's the lack of professionalism & respect for the club/team-mates re:the boots not being on & the inviting Newcastle players into the rooms after a home defeat and the lazy performances on the pitch (constant offsides)
It was mentioned on MoTD as if it'd come from the club, visavis Kaboul. Think the line was "dropped for private reasons"
So could be anything! Not the 5 pager that involves lennon and factions san blah blah boring sad ITK spurs fans with no lives
