I was slightly disappointed to discover that Spurs drew 2-2 with Sporting Lisbon in the New York Challenge, this is after we went behind midweek against Tierry Henry and his New York Red Bulls, (Finally Winning 2-1) Luckily however my spirits were lifted when I saw that our Closest Rival last season and Worlds Richest Club Manchester City lost both games. Although as City lost to Sporting 2-0 it is Sporting Lisbon who win the title beating us by 1 goal on Goal Difference. Still they do have Pedro Mendes who I will always be a fan off, especially after his disallowed Half Way line Goal for Spurs vs Man U 3 Years ago.

So now the boys are coming home and we will see how we do in our last three friendlies Villarreal, Benfica and Fiorentina – These three will give us a real test of where we are ahead of our Champions League Campaign.
