his skill level is not really all that great, but when compared with
Becks (in most games) his level of commitment and effort far exceed that
of Becks. <
I agree that Bechio's work rate last night was colossal but do not let that
blind
you to the effort put in by Beckford. He was always available in the second
half
to receive a long ball on either wing and the half way line and to receive a
short pass
on the edges of both penalty areas. If the passing had been more accurate
then he
would have been noticed more. He never stopped moving. This is "work-rate"
and
"commitment" by any standard.
We had a valuable lesson on closing down and being first to the ball. Spurs
midfield throttled us. At best we never stopped trying but, in the second
half,
we were second best. Class told. Over the two games I suppose we were
one hour worse than Spurs which is a tremendous achievement against a ttop
six Premier team.
A great run that cemented all the excitement I have felt this season. Brings
back
memories of the 2nd Div title managed by the Don.
Nice to see (read) you back on the list Graham.
regards, Michael (D'sD)
