"I'd be suprised if they had a top 8 finish"
C'mon man their position now hardly matters
their midfield is *quality* [although they do need a holding player, like Carrick was]
<3 Huddlestone, his technique is *2nd to none* :coolsmiley:
They'll battle it out for 5th, with Villa, City, Pompey, and possibly Newcastle and West Ham
tottenham have suprised me in the last few years, but there position last year (not a top 10 finish) is a metaphor for what is to come in future years.... they too are past there prime 
and lack SEVERLY in attack. I admit the first 3 games aren't a great depiction of the rest of the season, but surely 2 goals in 3 games for the whole team gives you some idea of how there going
youve got to be joking! ok keane and berbatov are out but frankly they were not needed...Bentley, Dos Santos, Pavlyuchenko and Modric are HUGE in's and once they learn each others games will begin to dominate against all teams..their 5-0 smashing of roma pre-season is the spurs outfit you will be seeing very shortly whilst their defence has been strengthened with the buys of sanchez, gomes and corluka. It should be noted half these guys havn't even played yet, so a 1-1 draw with a full strength chelsea is dam good. When they all come back in you should see these boys DESTROYING most teams....
yet another defeat for tottenham, sad to see
Pavlyuchenko made his debut, the kids got talent, should form a decent partnership with Bent but he didn't look like a threat against Aston Villa
You seem to be confusing attacking midfielders with strikers
Dos Santos was terrible, and his not a striker, this is the type of form which led Barca to sell him
Modric is a midfielder aswell, if you consider him a striker then good luck waiting for goals, he'd be lucky to hit 5 for the season
Bentley is young and yet to score, and his another midfielder, plays on the wing (scored 10 goals in 90 games for blackburn)
Bent is a striker... his good (but you didnt even mention him)... he will be your sole source of consistent goals, atleast until Pavlyuchenko finds his feet
I stand by what I said before... TOTTENHAM severly lack in finishers... decent production and attack, but noone to poach and slot the goals in
