Happy Monday Spursland! Can you feel that Christmas spirit? Oh, its all around us now as we march on through this glorious holiday season, towards the season's midpoint and that great time of the year when teams buy players for bloated price tags (what's up Fernando Torres). Spurs are in third, life is good.  

And now the "news"

What Will Tottenham Do With In Form Defoe?-The Guardian

A lot of articles like this one popping up in the last few days around the English press. Apparently the English journalists seem to think that 2005 Defoe is back. Well he isn't. He may have scored a few goals but he needs a lot of things to happen before he is in the situation he needs to be that deadly scorer. Rafa, or as he is known around my apartment 'My Dutch Boy" is still our best choice, it isn't even close.

Wife Of Uruguay Manager Attacked On The Streets-SB Nation Soccer

Read the article for details but one thing did stick out to me as an odd thing. The attackers drove by her as she walked down the street and dowsed her with a liquid that "burned her". In their statement the police are specific to say she was neither pushed, nor insulted. Now if I was this women I really doubt that I would even car if someone dropped a C-bomb if they had just splashed me with acid, maybe the authorities should focus more on that aspect fo the assault.
