anyone know if Caulker picked up a small injury since Gallas is starting?

well, I think that AVB wanted to use Vertonghen as CB and Naughton as LB as Vertonghen would have problems with pacy wingers and he's better suited to muscling out Michu.

Caulker has been at fault for 2 late goals recently because of communication break downs with Lloris. Both Vertonghen and Gallas speak french, I think this is probably the reason behind dropping Caulker.
Doesn't mean I prefer Gallas there, he is just to slow now, he can read the game well, but when teams counter on us, Caulker has pace to burn whilst Gallas is still trying to move over 1mph.

Good win against an inform team who recently beat the scum 2-0 at their place.

Best part of the match (apart from the goal) Was Jake Livermore running on the pitch looking like he was entering a boxing ring. Legend.

So can you tell me why Kevin Prince Boateng played for Tottenham for 2 years and he did not stay? I think he is brilliant, and could really help you guys.

Same reason Taarabt left, both brilliant players, just the wrong time to join a team like Tottenham who can't give week in week out first team football to people who are not consistant enough.

It's Lloris' birthday today! He had his debut against Aston Villa also.

15 corners so far this game

Bale
please come to Barcelona

aston villa conceded 12 goals in the last two games :S

We played so well today, dodgy first 15 minutes in the second half. Once we got the first goal though it all calmed down again. 15 corners to us in the first half.

Dominance. COME ON YOU SPURS!
