MOTD2

[grandgramparabbi]

Anyone have a link for MOTD2 from yesterday?

I'm trawling the net but am behind a firewall and can't download torrents. Tubes and regular downloads are my only bet (like thugabeatz posted a week ago).
I'd really like to see the extended highlights of yesterday's game.

Tottenham Hotspur vs. Everton Video Highlights & Interviews (28th Feb 10)

[HeroesComesandGoes]

You don't want to watch...two former Arsenal players said that we had no chance for fourth (Keown & Dixon)...and yet they're meant to be impartial...

[berby999]

The reason you don't Want to watch is because that filthy dixon puts on a spurs shirt at the end for charity, ok it's for a good cause but god it's a disturbing image.

Glad I missed that then

They're both stinking goons, and that's enough of a reason to dislike them both... but how Keown got a job I shall never know. It wasn't the vuvuzelas I was muting the TV for in the confed cup!

[Siberian Dreamer]

What really annoyed me is that they made it look like the second half was all Everton when we had many attacks.

[bensonrecon]

They always make it look like we were under pressure for 90 minutes and scored against the run of play.I'm amazed they didn't try to make the 9-1 look like 9 goals from 9 chances and us spending the rest of the match on our own goal line.

As for the scheduling of having those 2 "experts" in studio when the scum played on Saturday and not Sunday it just further proves how mainstream TV media hate seeing us do well or giving us ANY credit.

With the way we get reported on it almost made me cry tears of joy when I watched the Bolton Cup game on the FA's site and heard balanced comments not only from the commentary team but the studio as well

[basskadet]

They didn't even mention our glorious second goal or how great Modric was for us. All they went on about was how lucky we were that we didn't draw. Why is that? We were still by far the better team who deserved the win & the fact Donovan missed a sitter means nothing because HE MISSED IT! Nobody still can admit that he was offside & it would've therefore been a travesty if the goal had stood with Everton nicking a point either. They all forget too that Defoe missed a penalty at Goodison, so if Everton were meant to Draw at WHL, then we were meant to win there - the fates have levelled themselves out in that sense, but really we were the better team in both games & should've got 6 points out of them instead of 4. In fact, if anybody dwelt as long on the goals Spurs should've scored this season as they have over that Donovan miss, then we'd be winning the bloody League!

Also, as pundits themselves always like to point out, just because a team might've scored to bring it all even, it is no guarantee it would've finished that way as the whole dynamics of the game would've changed from that point on. Spurs might have reacted to the goal, or even Everton might've got another with the momentum. The game would've kicked off from the centre-spot instead of a goal-kick also & both managers would've probably made different substitutions in reaction to the scoreline.

So, for them to imply that Donovan's goal would've meant it finished 2-2 is both ignorant & hypocritical.

Those 2 are a right pair of t!ts. I hate the fact they are both goons but beyond that, they are useless & so boring. They are also both defenders & never talk about all the great attacking play, which is what we really want to hear about. Even Hansen manages to discuss the goals & attacks, especially when there are no ex-strikers around to do it, so why can't these 2 idiots? I can't stand either of them & they really bring the quality of the show down. MOTD is so much better than MOTD2 & a big reason why is down to these muppets. Spurs score 1 of the goals of the season, with 12 passes before a sublime chip, & MOTD2 fail to show any of it but the last 3 passes & don't even mention it, let alone show it, in the post-game analysis. Shocking.

Alan Hanson and Mark Lawrenson are both defenders too though bassk , and they ( defenders ) are the best people to analyse attacking moves because they are the ones that have to break down the oppositions movements - they do seem to be starting to lose their bias for Liverpool a tinsy bit = but its always there though when they play the Toffee's .


All in all i agree with what you say that those two divs are making a mockery of the MOTD 2 Programme and it makes for bad viewing , especially as you have pointed out that there was a fair amount of passes before the Modric goal .


As for our performances = in both games we have gone in at half time 2 goals up and twice nearly thrown it . Its a 90+ minute game and we are guilty of forgetting that too many times this season .

[basskadet]

I don't really agree that Hansen & Lawro are 'the best' at analysing attacks tbh, but the deffo do it at least. You'll often find Hansen passing the assessment of strikers, etc over to the likes of Shearer or whoever is on that evening but if he has to then he gives a decent account.

Thing is, Hansen & Lawro were both members of 1 of the best British teams ever, a Liverpool side that certainly knew how to attack as well as defend.

Dixon & Keown tho were both raised thru Arsenal's "boring, boring, 1 nil to the Arsenal" years and know bog all on the subject. Even tho they eventually played with the likes of Henry & Bergkamp they always struggle to talk about strikers properly.

Also, Hansen comes across as fairly intelligent & knowing the game inside out but Keown is thick as a plank. Lawrenson is a bit dull & some of his assessments are questionable but he & Dixon are on a similar level in my mind. MOTD2 is utter turd sometimes, usually when that pair of plums are on it.
