I've been spot on with both Aston Villa and Tottenham in my analysis over the last two days, and I have a good feeling that this might be the beginning of a good streak. I caught the second half of the Spurs game just now, and they were totally dominant up to the 1st goal, tearing into the West Ham side down the flanks. The Hammers didn't have any scoring chances at all, until after the first goal was scored when for some reason they missed from a few few feet. Poor Zola, that should have been a goal, and if it had the match would probably have ended 1-1. But O'Hara then scored a beautiful goal for Tottenham, and the match was over. What impressed me the most about Spurs was that after the second goal, they kept their composure and wound down the clock. Their teamwork and level-headedness was impressive... I think they strung like 15 passes together at a time, all in confined spaces, to deny the Hammers any chance of getting the ball. Impressive. They do look like a solid side now, and anyone who says they just had a lucky few games with a new manager is talking bull. West Ham, on the other hand, look to be that initially lucky side.
