Cheers mate
So far it's been fine but I'm only in November now and we've managed to avoid injuries really. I've been able to rotate the defenders and midfielders quite well at the moment without results being bad, so far so good I'd say and hopefully we can continue doing well over the next few months.

Defoe 79' | Boselli 89'

Tottenham Hotspur will feel hard done by after Wigan Athletic snatched a late point at White Hart Lane despite the North London club enjoying large periods of domination during their Premier League clash.
Spurs dropped out of the top four in the Premier League this afternoon as a late goal from Mauro Boselli cancelled out Jermain Defoe's first strike since mid September to give the Latics a share of the spoils at White Hart Lane.
Both goals came in the second half, Defoe netting the opener with only 11 minutes left to play, the Latics rallying late on, Boselli scoring with a fine volley with under a minute remaining in normal time and the four minutes that were added on for injury time weren't enough for Spurs to find away past Ali Al-Habsi again.
Spurs manager Andre Villas-Boas was also handed injury concerns to go along with the disappointing draw after Scott Parker and Aaron Lennon hobbled off, the latter forced to leave the field of play with 19 minutes remaining due to a suspected rib fracture, the hosts forced to play out the remainder of this Premier League clash with only 10 men as they'd already used their three available substitutes.
The hosts brought their fine form from their midweek clash against Dinamo Moscow into this game, winger Gareth Bale heading against the bar after just three minutes to the dismay of the home crowd.
Wigan Athletic goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi was then forced to deny Aaron Lennon from close range as the winger raced towards goal after sprinting clear of Alvaro Alcaraz, the resulting corner headed just wide by Emmanuel Adebayor who was looking to add to the hat-trick he had scored midweek against Dinamo Moscow in the Europa League.
Spurs continued to dominate proceedings as the Latics found it impossible to handle Mousa Dembele, Gareth Bale and Aaron Lennon, the trio creating chances at will, yet unfortunately for the hosts they found Al-Habsi in fine form, the Latics shot stopper superbly denying Adebayor and Spurs skipper Michael Dawson in quick succession.
At the half time interval things remained all square, the visitors clearly on the back foot and in need of inspiration as Spurs dominated first half proceedings at White Hart Lane. Both sides emerged unchanged for the second half and the opening few minutes passed without incident until midfielder Scott Parker pulled up injured clutching his left groin, the midfielder soon replaced by Brazilian international Sandro.
The loss of Parker seemed to stifle the hosts rhythm and they didn't look like breaking down the visitors, the Latics seemingly happy to settle for a point against a side that has looked like genuine title contenders under Andre Villas-Boas for the majority of the Premier League season since it started back in August.
With 23 minutes remaining Villas-Boas decided to make a double change by withdrawing Emmanuel Adebayor and Gylfi Sigurdsson for Jermain Defoe and Clint Dempsey respectively. Just three minutes after his introduction Dempsey could have broken the deadlock had he hit the target with his long range effort, Wigan Athletic goalkeeper Ali Al-Habsi a spectator as the Americans shot flashed wide of his left hand post.
A coming together between Aaron Lennon and left back Arthur Boka saw the England international come off worse, early reports suggesting the lively winger had suffered a rib fracture that could keep him sidelined for at least six weeks, the injury forcing Spurs to play the remaining 19 minutes with only 10 men.
Defoe soon struck with his third Premier League strike of the season after combining well with Dembele, the 30 year old striker smashing his effort beyond Al-Habsi to give the home side the lead. Unfortunately for Spurs the visitors weren't about to accept defeat without a fight and Boselli soon produced a superb volley that left Hugo Lloris with little chance, the Latics salvaging a draw when they had been outplayed in this Premier League clash.
Spurs had a late claim for a penalty waved away by referee Chris Foy, defender Jan Vertonghen booked for his protests, the Belgian international furious after he had been wrestled to the ground by Latics captain Gary Caldwell when Gareth Bale whipped in a corner kick deep into injury time, subsequent television replays proving inconclusive although Andre Villas-Boas was adamant in his post match interview that his side deserved an injury time penalty and said his side had been denied the chance to win the game by the match officials.

Wigan Athletic are no easy beats and could surprise many tomorrow at White Hart Lane if Tottenham Hotspur players don't perform at their best according to 30 year old striker Jermain Defoe.
Spurs striker Jermain Defoe has called on his team-mates to perform at the same level they did midweek when they emphatically thrashed Dinamo Moscow 5-0 in their Europa League Group H fixture ahead of the North London clubs Premier League clash with Wigan Athletic at White Hart Lane tomorrow.
The 30 year old said the Latics were no longer easy beats and would pose a real threat unless the Spurs players performed at their very best. The Latics currently sit just two points and two places behind Spurs, although the Latics have played two games more than their upcoming opponents.
"Wigan won't be coming to White Hart Lane looking for a point, they're no longer easy beats and we need to perform tomorrow to pick up the win. They've started the season well and have been playing very good football, they pose a real threat, we must be aware of that and perform at our best," said Defoe.
The England international has struggled in front of goal this season and has so far netted just twice in eight appearances in all competitions, a match winning brace against Newcastle United in the Premier League back in September the only time the striker has celebrated getting his name on the scoresheet this season.
Despite the goal drought the 30 year old remains confident he still has a role to play at White Hart Lane.
"Obviously goals haven't been easy to come by this season and that's frustrating," said the striker.
"In saying that I've had chances, some I've missed, some the goalkeepers have done well to save and some that have hit the woodwork. As a striker you just try and move on, like you know not beat yourself up about that kind of stuff, if you do that you might not be ready for the next chance that comes your way," added Defoe.
"The goals will come, they always do and I'm confident I've still got a future at Spurs," said the 30 year old.
Defoe is expected to start the North London clubs Premier League clash against Wigan Athletic tomorrow at White Hart Lane amongst the substitutes with Emmanuel Adebayor likely to keep his place in the starting lineup following his hat-trick against Dinamo Moscow midweek in the Europa League.

Tottenham Hotspur striker Emmanuel Adebayor has revealed he never doubted his ability despite struggling for goals this season prior to his hat-trick against Dinamo Moscow last night.
Spurs striker Emmanuel Adebayor scored a fine hat-trick against Dinamo Moscow last night at the Arena Khimki as the North London club booked their spot in the next round of the Europa League with an emphatic 5-0 victory over their Russian opponents in their Group H clash.
The 28 year old had scored just two goals in eight appearances in all competitions prior to netting that hat-trick and Spurs manager Andre Villas-Boas had called on Adebayor and his strike partners Jermain Defoe and Danny Graham to start finding the back of the net on a more regular basis.
Despite his struggles in front of goal the Togolese international says he never doubted his ability.
"All strikers go through bad times when they don't score as many goals as they probably should. Every striker knows about those tough times and sometimes it feels like you can't stop them," said the striker.
"I knew it wouldn't last forever, I never doubted myself, I always believe I can score," added Adebayor.
Spurs have enjoyed life under Villas-Boas since his summer arrival. The North London club occupy fourth place in the Premier League and sit just five points behind league leaders Manchester United whilst having two games in hand. Spurs have played a total of 14 games in all competitions under the Portuguese manager, winning 10, drawing two and losing just twice. The first defeat was inflicted by Manchester United last month, the second an undeserved penalty shootout defeat at the hands of Stoke City in the fourth round of the Capital One Cup.
The North London club currently sit top of their Europa League group after winning their opening four games in Group H and have already booked their spot in the next round of the competition. Spurs will take on Wigan Athletic at White Hart Lane on Sunday as they resume their Premier League duties.

I've been doing that with the European games recently because it takes a good 20 to 30 minutes to do the graphics in Photoshop and I no joke have only just caught up on updates now with the date I'm in the game. Glad you're enjoying the story man, hopefully you do find the time to start one, I'm sure it would be a very good read.

Tottenham Hotspur booked their place in the next stage of this seasons Europa League with an emphatic and dominating 5-0 rout of Dinamo Moscow in Moscow as striker Emmanuel Adebayor scored a hat-trick.
Spurs have all but wrapped up top spot in Group H and their place in the next round of the Europa League after they inflicted a heavy 5-0 defeat on Dinamo Moscow in Moscow tonight. A hat-trick from Emmanuel Adebayor and goals from Gylfi Sigurdsson and Aaron Lennon ensured that the North London clubs fans left Russia happy.
The rout began as early as the second minute, Adebayor producing a fine volleyed finish with his left foot after Sigurdsson had played a fantastic ball over the hosts defence to give the Togolese international a yard of space and that's all the former Arsenal and Manchester City striker needed to put Spurs ahead.
Despite the early setback the hosts responded immediately, Spurs goalkeeper Hugo Lloris forced into a fine save to deny Dinamo Moscow striker Kevin Kuranyi just five minutes after Adebayor had broken the deadlock.
The hosts had recovered well after going behind early in this Group H contest and looked likely to bounce back from the setback, however the hosts could do nothing about the wonder strike that soon followed, Spurs midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson hammering home a thundering strike from at least 30 yards out.
After falling further behind the hosts never recovered and they could have conceded just minutes later when Adebayor headed against the crossbar, the striker unlucky to see Dinamo Moscow goalkeeper Anton Shunin tip his header onto the woodwork. The Spurs striker would win the next battle with the hosts keeper six minutes before half time, the 28 year old netting his second of the night, Shunin failing to handle a powerful drive from Sigurdsson, the rebound passed into the net by the waiting Adebayor.
The half time interval wouldn't have been an enjoyable one for the Dinamo Moscow players but the mood inside the Spurs dressing room would have been buoyant. The second half was dominated in the early stages by the hosts but they couldn't fashion any clear cut chances and Hugo Lloris was only required to get behind long range efforts, the hosts running out of ideas as Spurs defended professionally, the damage done in the first half as the North London club enjoyed their three goal lead.
Adebayor had enjoyed his evening in Moscow and the striker chipped in with an assist when he perhaps could have selfishly shot at goal in an attempt to net himself a hat-trick, winger Aaron Lennon the beneficiary as the striker squared the ball across goal for him to tap into an empty net after Dinamo Moscow keeper Anton Shunin had become stranded, Adebayor rounding the keeper and staying on his feet despite clear contact from Shunin.
In the end the striker completed his hat-trick just four minutes from time when he rose high to powerfully head a cross from Andros Townsend beyond the reach of Shunin who looked extremely disheartened as he picked the ball out of his net for the fifth time on a night many inside the Arena Khimki would like to forget, unless of course you're from North London, Spurs booking their place in the next round of the Europa League in emphatic fashion.

Tottenham Hotspur winger Gareth Bale says their upcoming Russian opponents Dinamo Moscow deserve respect and has warned his team-mates to prepare for a tough encounter in Moscow on Thursday night.
Spurs head into their Europa League Group H clash against Dinamo Moscow knowing a win in Moscow on Thursday night will ensure their name is in the draw for the first and second knockout rounds of the competition when the draw is made on December 21 in Amsterdam.
Despite sitting six points clear of Dinamo Moscow at the top of Group H, Spurs winger Gareth Bale has urged his team-mates to respect the Russian side and has warned his team-mates to expect a tough encounter.
"The game in Moscow is going to be very tough. The crowds over there are very passionate and even intimidating, they love their football and they're very passionate about their clubs. We'll need to perform well to get a result and that won't be easy to do when you're playing in tough conditions," said the Welsh international.
"We need to show them the respect they deserve on Thursday night even if we beat them at White Hart Lane and sit top of the group. If we lose our last three games the fantastic start we've made in the group will be for nothing, so we must focus on getting the right result against Dinamo Moscow despite the difficulties," added Bale.
"I've told some of the lads in the squad that we need to be prepared for a physical battle, that's what it will be on Thursday night, a real battle and we'll need to be ready for that if we're to have any chance," said the 23 year old.

Tottenham Hotspur captain Michael Dawson has praised his team-mates after they beat Swansea City yesterday in what the defender labelled as a must win game following their Capital One Cup exit.
The Spurs skipper was in a buoyant mood today as he spoke with reporters before training and the 28 year old heaped praise on his team-mates after they bounced back from their disappointing Capital One Cup exit on Tuesday night at the hands of Stoke City when they beat Swansea City 2-0 yesterday at the Liberty Stadium.
Another eye catching performance from Gylfi Sigurdsson helped the North London club overcome the Swans, the midfielder involved in both goals, the first an own goal from Israeli striker Itay Shechter, the second from striker Emmanuel Adebayor, both goals coming just before the half time interval.
The win allowed Spurs to close the gap on Manchester United at the summit of the Premier League table to just five points and the North London have played two games less than the Red Devils.
Spurs skipper Michael Dawson was delighted that his side bounced back to winning ways at the Liberty Stadium.
"Losing on penalties was a real sucker punch for the squad. It certainly wasn't the result we expected and it certainly hurt a little crashing out of the Capital One Cup on penalties," revealed Dawson.
"In the end you've got to applaud Stoke because they hung on for dear life and managed to get the result they'd come for. It's obviously disappointing because we deserved to win that game in normal time but just couldn't find a goal. Hopefully we'll learn from it and avoid that situation in the future," added the Spurs skipper.
"Yesterday was a very important game for us, we needed to bounce back and the boys did terrific. We really wanted to pick up the three points and we did just that. Now we just need to refocus and prepare for our next game against Dinamo Moscow because any trip to Russia will be very difficult," said the 28 year old.
Spurs currently sit top of Group H after recording threes win from their opening three games and can ensure qualification for the next phase of this seasons Europa League with a win in Moscow.

Tottenham Hotspur moved back into the top four in the Premier League this afternoon as they recorded a 2-0 win over Swansea City in what was a very even clash at the Liberty Stadium.
Spurs bounced back from their defeat against Stoke City in the Capital One Cup on Tuesday night to record a valuable win over Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium. The win saw the North London club move back into the top four in the Premier League and Andre Villas-Boas side have closed the gap on new league leaders Manchester United to just five points whilst having two games in hand over the Red Devils.
There were few surprises as Villas-Boas named a strong Spurs lineup for the clash at the Liberty Stadium.
The hosts however started the brightest with Pablo Hernandez and Chico having early chances, both players failing to test Hugo Lloris however with their wayward efforts. The Frenchman was forced into action however when right back Dwight Tiendalli overhit a cross that almost crept in at the back post.
Spurs began to take control of proceedings as the game moved towards the half hour mark and captain Michael Dawson should have broken the deadlock when he rose highest to meet a Gylfi Sigurdsson corner, the defenders effort beating Swansea City goalkeeper Michel Vorm but crashing into the woodwork.
With half time approaching it looked likely the sides would go in level at the break but a rush of blood to the head from Israeli striker Itay Shechter gave Spurs the lead, the 25 year old finishing with great power only his effort was at the wrong end, Vorm unable to keep the effort out, Spurs ahead two minutes before the break.
There was more first half woe for the Swans when Emmanuel Adebayor was picked out by a wonderful Sigurdsson pass, the under pressure striker controlling the ball well with his right foot before curling the ball with his left beyond the outstretched hands of Vorm to double Spurs advantage before the half time interval.
In the end the hosts never recovered from that quick fire double and Spurs ran out comfortable winners at the Liberty Stadium, manager Andre Villas-Boas sure to be pleased by his sides performance and the return of a strikers name amongst the goals, Adebayor the first Spurs striker to score a goal since he scored against Reading in the clubs 3-0 victory last month at White Hart Lane.
