da gbg bet: It was another weekend to forget for Tottenham after their FA Cup final dreams were extinguished at the weekend. The Blues fired another shot to Spurs’ morale which continues to ebb away with every passing game. Even referee Martin Atkinson’s ghost goal blunder couldn’t mask the fact that Harry Redknapp’s men were comprehensively beaten by their London neighbours and knows his players require a lift if they are to fulfil their ambitions of Champions League football next season. Clinging onto fourth will be tough with Newcastle breathing down their neck and a run of two wins from their last eight but Redknapp is confident his side can hold on and secure qualification to Europe’s elite club competition. Anything less and their season will be considered a failure.
da esport bet: This week on FFC a certain Chelsea fringe player has been linked with a move to North London whilst the debate over referees lingers on instigated by the incident at Wembley on Sunday.

Quote of the Week

“The English league is by far the toughest in the world. I can judge that personally. The Premier League is stronger than Spain. In Spain, Barcelona
and Real Madrid could have a tough match when they visit the teams at the bottom of the table. But that’s because every Spanish club has a couple of good individual players.
“In England all the away games are difficult due to the pace, power and working spirit from the first minute until the last. At the away game at Stoke I thought about walking off the pitch after 25 minutes. They didn’t do anything but bashing, tackling and using the long ball. Totally not my style, but they are getting results with it.
“In Europe the Spanish and not the English clubs are ruling. But for me that just confirms what I said. The intensity in England is so big; they ask a lot of you.” Rafael Van Der Vaart admits the Premier League is the toughest in the world
