Tottenham Hotspur defeated Wigan Athletic, who finished third in the league, away from home, a result that surprised many!

Especially the pundits and trolls who were crazy about Tottenham's prospects before the game. You must know that in their previous publicity, Tottenham's excellent record is only because its bench depth and overall strength are strong enough, and in terms of mental level, such as willpower, it is far inferior to Manchester United and Arsenal. And now, with Tottenham winning an irrefutable victory, their faces have been swollen by Tottenham's ironclad facts!

In fact, fans with a little brains will not believe such statements. Because if Tottenham is really like these trolls say, only relying on the overall strength and squad thickness to dominate European football, then how could Tottenham Hotspur stage a desperate counterattack last season from 0-3 down, beat AC Milan to win the Big Ears Cup?

After a 5-2 win with a disorganized team, and it was also an away game, the tenacity and resilience shown by the Tottenham players in the game once again shocked the entire English football world, and made Ferguson and Mourinho, who were planning to take advantage of the fire, become distressed!

It is not surprising that this is the case. After all, anyone who finds out that their biggest rival has such a strong willpower that they can achieve such a big victory when half of the main players are unable to play, and even the starting central defenders are looking for temporary cameos, will have similar thoughts.

"Wigan Athletic is a very strong team. Coach Jewell is also a very good manager. In his post-match press conference, when asked what he thought of Wigan Athletic, George spoke highly of it, "It's not easy for Wigan Athletic to be able to build such a strong squad on a limited budget and finish third in the league as a promoted horse. If they can keep this mentality and play well in the next league, I think a European ticket will be the highest reward for their hard work!"

Although George admires Wigan Athletic very much, he can only give this level of assistance, and at the same time silently bless the other party in his heart, hoping that this dark horse will not be hit by this devil's schedule and lose the sharpness before it, and become unpopular.

Wigan Athletic and Tottenham are not very close, and George has no intention of developing it into a satellite club. Because it is not in Tottenham's interest to do so, and there is a possibility that someone else will be dressed as a wedding dress, George has no reason or need to give Wigan Athletic much substantial help.

With the win over Wigan Athletic in the final month of 2005, Tottenham's injury situation has improved a lot since December – Davies, Phil Neville and Ledley King are recovering well and are already available for the 15th round of the Premier League against Sunderland at the weekend. Nemanja Vidic also returned to the squad after a one-game break. The successive return of these four big players has given George the capital to rotate again, and it has also made the injuries of Tottenham's first team no longer as terrifying as before.

The reason why this injury wave did not have too much of a negative impact on Tottenham is due to the fact that FIFA scheduled a national team match in mid-November. If it weren't for this factor, then even if Tottenham Hotspur is resilient, under the pressure of multi-front operations, I am afraid it will encounter a wave of consecutive winlessness!

However, before that, George has another opponent to deal with, and that is Crystal Palace, who are about to meet Tottenham in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup!

For a game of the Carabao Cup, George has always looked at it from the perspective of developing young players and keeping substitutes in shape. Not to mention, Tottenham still has a number of players who have not recovered from injuries, and it is naturally impossible to spend too much energy on this game!

Even so, Tottenham are not out of the realm of victory – for Crystal Palace, who have just been relegated to the Championship this season and currently sit ninth in the table, with a strong chance of returning to the Premier League, promotion is much more tempting than promotion in the Carabao Cup!

You know, in order to achieve this goal, Crystal Palace spent a huge amount of money to retain their leading scorer and last season's Premier League Silver Boot winner Andrew Johnson. If they can't be promoted at the end of the season, then this expenditure will be enough to put a heavy financial burden on Crystal Palace!

Of course, renewing the team's top scorer with a high salary is something Crystal Palace is willing to do. You know, promotion to the Premier League is the ultimate goal of every lower league team in England. Not to mention, in the eyes of Crystal Palace's top management, the huge share of the Premier League's TV broadcast fees is also a huge temptation that they will never be able to resist!

The Premier League's broadcast fee sharing method and commercial promotion methods, as far as possible to ensure a fair broadcast fee sharing policy, and the umbrella mechanism to ensure that relegated teams can achieve a "soft landing", so that even the bottom team in the Premier League can get an unknown number of times more money than when they were in the Championship. With such a huge financial stake, every lower-tier club with the slightest ambition will make promotion to the Premier League their number one priority!

Therefore, for Crystal Palace, who are eager to return to the Premier League, it is natural that they will not be able to put much energy into the Carabao Cup. In this way, Tottenham's chances of winning this game are greatly increased!

Sure enough, like George, the Crystal Palace boss finally gave up on his plan to fight Tottenham - so to speak, when the managers of both sides invariably sent out a full bench lineup, and it was a home game against Tottenham, the result of this game was actually predictable!

One to zero. In the end, with a goal from Swedish veteran Larsson, Tottenham, who was playing at home, defeated the visiting Crystal Palace without danger and successfully advanced to the next round of the League Cup!

Two days later, on December 3, Tottenham will face Sunderland, the league's vice-captains, in the 15th round of the Premier League.

In the face of the "black cats" who scored only six points in one more league game and conceded 30 goals, Tottenham, which had greatly increased its combat effectiveness after the return of Ledley King and others, and had the advantage of home field, easily and happily got rid of this fish belly team that had completely lost its heart!

Klose scored twice and Arshavin scored a goal. The excellent performance of the two helped Tottenham beat each other 3-0 and got three valuable points!
