Quotes
Here are some quotes from headway charity regarding the Hugo Lloris concussion incident in the goal less draw with Everton yesterday.
"By continuing to play, the player may have caused greater damage to his brain.
"He should have been removed from the game immediately and taken to hospital for thorough tests and observation
What happened you may ask?
Hugo Lloris was injured in a collision with Romelu Lukaku that left him prone and apparently unconscious.
With his team-mates clearly disturbed, Tottenham’s medical staff rushed to the goalkeeper and decided that he was not fit to continue.
After receiving nine minutes of treatment, however, Lloris defied club doctor Shabaaz Mughal and captain Michael Dawson, both of whom pleaded with him to leave the field, and stayed on.
The French international was praised after the game by manager Andre Villas-Boas for his attitude, but the decision was described as "irresponsible" by brain injury charity Headway.
A spokesman for the charity said: "We are hugely concerned that a professional football club should take such an irresponsible and cavalier attitude to a player's health.
Jan Vertonghen
Jan Vertonghen expresses his desire to play at centre-back instead of left-back and that he feels like a stopgap.
Arsenal to join us in the race to sign Alexandre Pato.

Full-Time. 2-0 away win
Line-up and what I think of the front three tonight
So the line-up for tonight is:
Lloris
Naughton
Chiriches
Vertonghen
Fryers
Sandro
Dembele
Eriksen
Lamela
Defoe
Lennon
This is a great starting 11, especially attacking wise. For our attack we have Lennon who is returning from injury tonight and tonight he will show his pace and have an impact on the game. I hope lennon can get some crosses in tonight and create some play for the right wing.
Lamela is very likely to score tonight as he hasn't done yet and he needs to prove to us he is worth the 33million we paid for him, that is why I think he will have a huge impact on the game tonight. Also, there is Defoe who is very desparate to make his way into the England team and feature in the World Cup next year and has had a huge impact on the Europa league so far and he is of course going to keep that up tonight with at least 1 goal.

New Christian Eriksen song
lyrics-
Eriksen, sen, sen; Came to play for AVB.
To the left to the right; He’s our midfield Dynamite.
When he plays for the Lilywhites; He makes Özil look shite
Eriksen, sen, sen; Came to play for AVB.
To the left to the right; He’s our midfield Dynamite.
When he plays for the Lilywhites; He makes Özil look shite
