Even after tonight, your cack

Why thank you very much sir.

[Darth Marty]

Not wanting to sound bitter or anything but im glad you won tonight. I want us to really concentrate and build momentum on the league. Still, well done, at times you were very good going forward. A word of advice though, get shot of that keeper!

Comments after the match said he didn't need to go to the hospital and should be ok for the weekend.

He just got scared when Alonso came on I guess

I thought we might get beat today. Glad we don't have this on our back now. It's like the hineymoon period is over now. Here on in, weget to see what Redknob and the players are really made of.

Gomes

Or Gormless as Phill Babb called him

[Shaggy]

I've actually started to feel sorry for Gomes now. He looked crushed after yesterday's latest catastrophe.

[Sisterstiffticket]

i Agree Shags...I wouldn't wish that on anyone...well, except maybe....nope. Not even him!

I think it's good that English isn't his first language as he probably won't read between the lines when Redknob says..."He's our no 1 keeper. We have to support him" and other such ambiguities!

Oh...and Ben...Shame on you sir!

Spurs goalkeeping coach departs
tottenham keeper Heurelho Gomes
Gomes joined Spurs from PSV Eindhoven in the summer

Tottenham have parted company with goalkeeping coach Hans Leitert in the wake of costly errors made by their Brazilian keeper Heurelho Gomes.

Gomes, 27, has made several blunders this season with his latest coming in Tottenham's 2-1 Premier League defeat at Fulham on Saturday.

Austrian Leitert, 35, only moved to White Hart Lane in the summer.

A statement on Spurs website read: "We should like to thank him for his contribution and wish him well."

Gomes joined Tottenham from PSV Eindhoven in the summer for an undisclosed fee, thought to be around £8m.

And despite his mistakes, Spurs boss Harry Redknapp is backing his keeper to bounce back, saying: "He's our number one so he's got to do the job - we're relying on him heavily.

"I believe in him and we have to believe in him."

Redknapp, who lost his unbeaten start as Tottenham manager in the defeat at Craven Cottage, has Cesar Sanchez in reserve, while youngster Ben Alnwick is returning from a loan spell at Carlisle.

But he suggested that Gomes will be in the starting line-up against Blackburn on Sunday.

"Obviously he is disappointed with the weekend but his record tells you he is a world-class goalkeeper," said Redknapp.

"He has to bounce back from that and turn in a terrific performance this weekend. I'm sure he'll do that. He's a strong character. It's up to him now."

No real surprise there

Can anyone remember an instance where a keeper has had a sustained terrible period of form like Gomes and gone on to be a success at the same club (obviously the likes of David James have been rejuvenated by moves to other clubs)?

Dida maybe..

[Sisterstiffticket]

I have a feeling he may come good at the lane!

[Gaz]

Maybe if he's given the chance, but i have a feeling Harry will be looking to bring someone in during the January transfer window.

I have a feeling he may come good at the lane!

Flapped hilariously at the very first corner he faced yesterday. The lad is pure entertainment!
