Please Harry give Giovanni more game time

I will make no bones about it, we have let far too many talented players waste over the years. When I first saw Giovanni Dos Santos playing for Barcelona I thought this is one player we must bring to Spurs. At the time i thought we would never be able to get him, so I was pleasantly surprised when we did sign the talented Mexican.

For three years we have left him to bide his time, sent him out on loan and constantly held this player back. At the beginning of last season he was brought on as a substitute against Manchester City and created a chance with his first touch, then I thought finally he will be given a run in the side, but low and behold he was sent out on loan.

Now Harry Redknapp says he wants to leave, well it is no wonder. This kid has talent and should be played. yes he needs to work hard in training and needs to be fitter, but surely this would come if he was given more game time. Lennon has been used when fit even when he is not playing well, his game has not developed since he was eighteen years old. Even worse he no longer goes past players and still fails to deliver the ball consistently.

I have always felt that Giovanni would be a more potent weapon out on the right and is capable of switching with bale on the left when needed and is also capable of playing the hole ala Van der Vaart.

Please Harry don't let this talent go to waste.

Stop talking of winning titles, just keep winning

I have very little joyous sporting moments in my life, especially following Spurs. When they do come I am usually away somewhere. I started following Spurs as an eleven year old in Australia. The only trophy Spurs have won when I have been in England was the 1982 FA cup and the 1999 and 2008 League Cup.

I am currently taking a long sabbatical in the Philippines and low and behold, my beloved Spurs are having their best seasons for many a year. Added to this my local team Woking are 14 points clear at the top of the Conference South. Maybe I should stay away for longer.

As I trawl through the articles published on Newsnow, I see so many comments about Spurs winning the title, from Redknapp and current and former players to the pundits and other managers. Headlines reading "Spurs go for the title".

I find this all quite amusing and ridiculous. Doesn't every football side strive to win every game they play? Do we just decide well boys today we will try and win the premier league so we will win today or no we will get relegated this season so make sure you lose?

I am the sort of person who always downplays every result because I expect every good result will be followed by a bad one. I suppose after 30 years of following Spurs I am conditioned for failure.

Yes we are doing well. On corresponding matches from last season we are about ten points better off. It would seem Spurs have all of a sudden become a force and many look at Parker and Adebayor as the reasons behind this. But if we had won half the games we had drawn last season we would have been up there win United and Chelsea.

The difference this season is purely better results, I don't think there is a whole lot of difference about the way we are playing, although not seeing Crouch fall over everywhere has been an improvement.

But please to all past and present Tottenham players and supporters. Can we stop the talk of winning the league and just take every game as it comes, win all the games we can and see where we are come May.
