Thudd

would this be the Capello who has given him a cap and IIRC said nice things about him

anyway, we'll see

means nothing- capello gave me a call up but i just sang three bars of a nation once again down the phone at him through a mouthful of brack

YOMP and a half!

apparently missing some quality YOMP action, although i did hear the echoes.

mad commentator seemed to like it :)

XD

fuuuck

a YOMP so beautiful I'm sure it has to be in elaborate italicised script.

in the middle of raising his arms for the 'Y' in YOMP imo

There's something Christlike about that pose, would've looked good by Zubarán.

get in(ri)

lucky, lucky boy. seems his aura can even dispel red cards

yeah but i love it when he loses his cool tbh he's so manly

and then there was that handball about 2 minutes later

definitely got an aggro streak. some lovely passes today and some neat defensive work, thought he generally looked pretty good, albeit happy to let city play in front of him

maturity shown in the past maybe dozen games makes him a squad cert imo.

I think Gareth Barry limping off increases the possibility of Thudd going to the World Cup quite considerably.

well no word on that yet but it didn't look too serious.

the fact that barry has been fairly anonymous in a fairly anonymous midfield for quite a lot of the season should probably come into play too.

barry has always made a weird virtue of anonymity though: some players make it look easy, barry has such an excess of composure that he makes it look boring.

i can't decipher if you're saying that's a good thing or a bad thing tbh

its a pretty important thing in the premiership in the moment: barry, carrick, denilson, ballack, lucas- all kind of that same anon but important centre mid

i can't decipher etc

huddlestone has become that guy, but with three or four world class crossfield passes per game. a little more consistency in the goalscoring and i can't see how he won't be in the running for england's first XI

there was a beautiful moment where he dummied to shoot, beat his man, dummied to shoot again, then slipped it wide for lennon (who cut inside, crossed for the Crouch knockdown, fell to Bale on the rising half-volley, almost sumptuous goal)

yes that was good. thudd dummies look nonsensical, it's like watching a glacier send you the wrong way over aeons

he did it a couple of times to notable effect. when he chooses to skin his man it is like some great natural wrong has been unleashed

live an avalanche, but w/a football imo

^^^typo but this is what goalkeepers do when Huddlestone swings his leg back to shoot

bet king has annabel's drained at this stage tbh.

Letter writing campaign starts here

XDDDDDDDDD

i dunno what capello reads, who's got italian though? let's do this.

perfectly weighted pass for keane (keane scored 2 today!)

hoping thudd has a huge season this year, can't believe how young he still is. actually all the spurs midfield: bale, modric, thudd, lennon could be lining up together for 6+ years. kranjcar and corluka too.

would hate to see this guy go and waste 2 years waiting for ferguson to realise just how to play him. see berbatov.

lucky boy

never mind that

his effort tonight

he had that christ-like pose for the yomp off the post.

it was very nearly a karate kid pose, beautiful stuff. some great 60-70 yards balls too, he's in the groove atm

we'll not discuss the grooves on elmander's chest, though

dang that dec 2006 clip is amazing

huddlestone takes it imo (and not just cuz i'm reading this thread) because while, say, scholes' goal looked like a "why not fuck it i'll have a crack at it" moment, huddlestone's looked like a guy saying "...yup." ~aced~

also lol at you guys calling him the UNIT---u have heard of randy johnson, i presume

Not good enough for a top team...

he's playin for one

whatevr you think of that it doesn't change my point!

:)

thudd with essien in fron of him, with drogba to aim at- chelsea could win the league with that combo imo

he's a major luxury, exactly the type of player that goes missing when you guys lose to man u.

most of man u were missing that game tbf

out for 8-10 weeks?
