He comes from borehamwood, he ain’t no fakin good…..Tim Sherwood”
The cheeky, chirpy chumpster has been at it again. This time we get treated to all manner of revelation from the footballing supremo who has played the game at the highest level.
When I played at Watford and Norwich, you’d go there and pull up on the bus and they were very respectful fans, never rude gestures. They’d just hold up their fingers to say ‘it’s going to be three’ or ‘it’s going to be five today’ and you’d just nod and say ‘yeah we’ll take three’. That was the way it was.
Ah, halcyon days. But what of the now? What can Tim tell us about Sunday’s opponents?
To be honest, I’ve not watched them that closely. I mean, I’ve been looking at their results and where they are in the division.
Obviously Suarez and Sturridge make an awful lot of difference. They have scored 48 goals together [in the league], which is a huge return for a strike partnership.
I’m not sure how many clean sheets they’ve kept, but they can leak goals because they throw everything forwards.
So all you really need in order to effectively manage a club like Spurs, is the occasional glance at the league table in the back of the paper. Sorted.
It’s depressing to listen to Sherwood.
It’s his presser as the Tottenham manager ahead of one of our games, and we get the sort of conversation from him that you’d expect from some washed up ex pro at the end of bar, looking to keep you engaged long enough to secure his next pint.
I know that myself from doing it. At one stage we were well clear with a game in hand when we won the title [at Blackburn]. We managed to scrape through at the last. We were shot and we managed to get over the line.”
City are his tip for the title, Chelsea are gonna go close. Yadda yadda. Give it up, you starstruck inadequate.
This is the same low brow punditry you dished out when you were on Setanta. It wasn’t good enough then, and listening to you regurgitate it now, as our manager, is actually revolting.
I’ve spoken to a few of the players today and they’ve never been to Anfield to play. Certainly when I was growing up I thought the game was invented by Liverpool, it was the home of football. They never lost anything.”
This is embarrassing.
