Looking at the result, Vertonghen injury apart, this was just a training match that we probably were not taking seriously due to the team line up first and second half. A number of starters didn't get a game. If City win as expected. I think us vs South China in the runner up match will be a bigger draw than Sunderland in terms of viewing figures and commercial appeal.
Don't want to show our hand too quickly against a top 4 side in the League proper.

That was a decent outcome to a super tour.
We did ok given the circumstances.
The sodden crappy pitch was the biggest factor in deciding the outcome of this game, not anything to do with us being poor.

Citeh win 1-0. There's a shocker.
It gets slightly better
Another worry for Spurs was the forced substitution of Jan Vertonghen, who left the field holding his knee and was sent for a scan.
"It seems like he twisted his ankle, it could be sprained ankle ligaments," said Villas-Boas. "Hopefully there is not too much damage as he has a good range of movement still, but it is swollen a bit. We hope it is nothing very serious, the MRI scan is positive and he'll be back for the start of the season."

Let's hope the injury isn't to bad. Scan tomorrow morning. Thx for your messages!
I read the link too! Quite concerning if you ask me...
looks like, in absence of a striker, AVB is going for a player/manger role!!sky said:

You made a thread asking where Audere has gone to which resulted in the revelation that people from here had set up a separate forum. Then several people acted like internet cunts for an inordinate amount of time.
Oh sorry. wrong thread.
We lost 3-1 to sunderland in the pissing rain. #Spursy
Dembs was high so he didn't play, Hudd was a mess (#lardcake)
Chad is handsome, Vert picked up an injury, Friedel & Walker were outstanding, Ade looked interested
Hmmm. Kaboul looks like some manner of ethnic Lex Luthor.Dembs was high so he didn't play, Hudd was a mess (#lardcake)

Hell, can Huddlestone score a goal already?
