Player expectations for next year ! (Walker)

I thought that after the 2011/12 season where Walker played excellently, he was rather disappointing last year. He didn't have the worst of seasons but considering he was incredible the year before his poor decision making and sloppy play meant that he didn't have as much of an impact on the team.

I expect Walker to still be our first choice centre back next year despite his poor performances. If Walker can hold himself back more and not push forward to much then he will not have to be under so much pressure when he loses the ball. Despite this I do not think that last year Walker didn't play well because he is a terrible defender I just feel he had a dip in form and last year was a one off and next year he will be back to his good ways.

Player expectations for next year ! (Lloris)

Last year was Hugo Lloris' first year in the Barclays Premier League. He started off rather shaky making a few little mistakes but that poor spell didn't last very long and by the end of the season he was incredible and in my opinion the best goalkeeper in the league.

I expect Hugo to be our no.1 next season and I think that decision will be rather easy for AVB. Lloris was excellent last year and I expect his performances to be even better next year as they were last year. Last year he impressed me the way he was confident, always off his line and therefore was very sharp when the ball was played over the top and he was able to deal with it himself. This is what I thought made him the best and stand out from the crowd, hopefully he also keeps himself just as flexible, as this is what him able to pull of the amazing saves he did. Finally I expect next year Hugo to establish himself as the best keeper in the league and even put his name up there with the best in the world.

Player Expectations for next year (Friedel)

Friedel didn't get much first team football last year due to our new signing Hugo Lloris having some incredible performances. However the year before and off the bench last year Friedel showed that he still is a good goalkeeper depute his age.

Being 42 I don't expect Brad Friedel to be able to play at the top level for to much longer. Despite this Brad is still a great stopper and a great keeper to have on the bench. As shown yesterday in the Barclays Asia Trophy he is still capable of performing some great stops. He has said that he does yoga every day to keep fit and it is obviously showing as he carries on to perform well at the highest level but I'm not to sure how long this yoga can keep him fit for but Brad himself seems very confident that he can carry on playing in the Barclays Premier League and even thinks he will be able to be the oldest player to play in the Barclays Premier League.

Player expectations for next year ! (Gomes)

Last year Gomes had a rather successful loan spell at Hoffenheim until he had to come back due to an injury. However Gomes has been awful playing for spurs over the past few years making more dreadful mistakes than good saves.

I expect Gomes to be a Spurs player come September however in my opinion I hope he isn't. If Gomes could concentrate more then maybe he would cut out the terrible mistakes he makes however one thing I don't expect is to see him able to cut out his mistakes and the second is that even if he does cut out the mistakes I do not expect the fans to forgive him for the mistakes he made in the past. Next year I expect Gomes to struggle to get onto the bench let alone the starting eleven and therefore I expect that in no time he will want out and I'm sure we won't stop him.

Spurs vs Sunderland Match Review Barclays Asia Trophy

Spurs go home early from a very wet Hong Kong after losing 3-1 to Sunderland this afternoon. The semi-final was scheduled for an 11 am start however due to very heavy rain the game was delayed by thirty minutes and the halves were made five minutes shorter. The weather proved a real problem for both sides as many players were falling over, the ball was holdding up in the rain and ultimately many mistakes were made.

The Spurs lineup was Gomes, Walker, Caulker, Dawson, Rose, Huddlestone, Lennon, Parker, Dempsey, Sigurdsson and Adebayor. Meanwhile Sunderland lined up with Mannone, Gardner, Colback, O'Shea, Brown, Cabral, Larsson, Johnson, Giaccherini, Sessegnon and Altidore. The first 25 minutes were very even with Dawson making some excellent defensive challenges but neither team really troubled either goalkeeper. However in the 28th minute Spurs broke the deadlock with a Gylfi Sigurdsson shot that was deflected in. But Spurs' lead didn't last long and with Huddlestone making a mistake in the wet Sunderland's new signing Cabral went through one on one and slotted home the equaliser. From the start of the second half it all went downhill for Spurs when in the 48th minute Jan Verthongen had to be stretchered of with what looked like a serious injury. Despite Spurs being the better side Sunderland went 2-1 up when poor defending gave Wes Brown a free header from a corner. Spurs then looked like they had dropped their heads with Friedel pulling of some amazing saves to keep us in the game but in the last minute David Moberg Karlsson went through one on one from a counter attack to slot home Sunderland's third which ended the contest.

Sunderland looked much sharper than Spurs and although many players were missing and the conditions were bad I thought Spurs looked very poor and I am just happy that there is still plenty of time to improve before the new season starts. Despite this some players impressed like Dawson who played excellently and Friedel who pulled of some amazing saves to keep us in the game. Hopefully Verthongen's injury is nothing to serious and now Spurs can return to North London for some more well needed pre season training.
