what rubbish, we have done better in the cups since he left, beat chelski 2-1, did well in UEFA cup, carrick wasnt worth what we sold him for, plus its easier to replace him than get a good forward
Cups
So you got to 1 semi final and got beat by kids?
If you think Carrick isn't missed than you're deluded.
yes ok
if we had to choose one now out of berb or carrick i know what the decision would be
how about if you could choose between berb + carrick and berb + your defensive midfielder atm (forgot his name)
We all know he'll say the latter, even though none of us can even name his replacement.

he's not even named carricks replacement himself yet, i asked last page
berbatov and carrick are 2 different style of players, one holding midfielder and one forward, cant really pick one over the other
Carrick + Berbatov?
Or
Unknown + Berbatov?

but we wouldnt have berb if we still had carrick.
As for his replacement Zokora and Jenas are the 1st choice centres

its not hard to understand we didnt have the money to afford both and the carrick offer was to big to turn down, we then got berbatov for a good price and in his first seasons scores 22 goals.

Im not saying berbatov wasnt a good signing, he has been, i just find it hard to believe an established premiership club who just missed out on 4th place wouldnt have 10m in a transfer kitty to buy berbatov without selling your best midfielder

What about your £34million deal with Mansion?
Stop pretending you are poor and couldnt afford Berb without the Carrick sale. It's bollocks.

he wasnt the only transfer though, Zokora and Ekotto were purchsed just before berbatov agreed a deal.
Im not saying he wouldnt be welcomed back because he would but he wanted big wages etc
anyway hes gone and i hope dimi stays so we can work on strengthening our squad

The tottenham board have the same mentality as everton... it's a business and they are the only people involved with the club who are not deluded that they are a 'big club'
Hence not trying to punch above there weight and risk keeping two players at the peak of their careers when they could offload them/him for big money

we also got further in the cups, played well in europe and we will still finish 5th same as last year. We have 2 games left and only 1 point behind everton who have 1 game left

Thats a poor argument, we are not lower due to the loss of 1 player.

no, we were pushing for the uefa cup, When we were in it, we were playing lesser squads in the league.
