How is that lucky? When you can score twice from the same play, it just means you are good and consistent: Modric makes great corners, Bale's pace is hard to deal with when he makes those runs to the right hand side of the box.

That shouldn't have been a red

@Dinglehater2
Agree. Yellow card should enough..:)

Still, it looks like Cahill can't handle big teams. There are probably better defenders to sign.

The red card has already been cancelled

@Trias00, it had nothing to do with the red card, it was the fact that he looked uncomfortable dealing with fast players throughout the game before he got sent off. He was pressured into some bad decision making and that's what ultimately forced him to make the challenge which earned him the red. Regardless of whether it was a red or not (it wasn't anyways), the fact is that he got himself into a situation where he was forced to make the challenge: it was either take out Parker and give a foul or let Parker go and hope that Zat Knight can take care of it.

Of course the midfield has to be blamed somewhat, but for a young English defender who is being hyped up so much and who already has his first caps, I expected more.

Assou-Ekotto went down very easily imo, wasn't really a penalty.

sorry i accidentally liked your post trying to reply .. how is that even??/ THS was leading and in control while bolton loose their best players for a couple matches ... that was not a red card that was extremely harsh! if tottenham can get into CL players like modric wont be interested in leaving and with this form i really back them. Love the EPL for the strong competition!!

not a red card. Way to far out to be a goal scoring opportunity and you can argue he wasn't last man especially since Parker isn't the fastest and someone could have gotten back.

I thought it was a clear penalty on Assou-Ekotto. He did clip him..

Hmm, I don't think there was any real contact there :/ I mean, I know a lot of referees give those penalties but I don't think it warranted one. Although, it might be that the only reason it wasn't given was that the ref had already taken them down to 10 men and they were already at a huge disadvantage considering they were playing us. Maybe the ref took that into consideration.

First game that Lennon and Bale were able to completely run rampant over the opposition. Lennon is back in very good form and Bale is excellent as always. They didn't just cover their wings, they covered all areas in Bolton's half. Bale scored and assisted by making runs on the right and Lennon scored from the left. Both of these guys can operate on either wing and are fantastic to watch. They are arguably the strongest wing pair in all of England.

I agree with best wings

Dude, you watch trailer park boys? Haha!
