has it been used in like cricket or something like a really good delivery?

yeah i know, but we've just got to allow this one uncertainty into our vernacular, we've got to take on the challenge of deciding whether the word refers to a cresting beast mix of power, pace and technique like drogba or whether it refers to a lumpy, cut-up, soggy mess that the ball seems to come off at unlikely angles like luke chadwick

naturally I also dislike 'unplayable'

I have a bit of an instinct that it really needs a dulling preposition beside it, like 'against' - a bit 'unlistenable [to]'
but I think I may even be wrong about that.

they could just say unstoppable.

Imagine an unstoppable delivery in cricket, that'd be something to see

unstoppable a bit lacking in terms of the continuous imo, fooball jargon has a good instinctive feel for these finicky gaps u know

interesting - that ball was "unplayable" because of the unplayable condition of the pitch

“John Terry for me is the best defender technically I’ve ever seen. I used to say to him: come out with the ball.

"But English football always encouraged him to be more aggressive, play on his power and determination. We should have tapped into his technical ability. He could control a game in same way Beckenbauer could. But that wasn’t the English way.”

i only saw the second half of that but it was execrable, so many misplaced throughballs

probably the worst game ive watched this season, fuck arsenal and to a slightly lesser extent fuck chelsea

vdv on the right looking like a really shit option, wonder why harry decided to try it out today. I'm sure whe he sees how it's fuckin the midfield he'll change it at half time.

Get this guy away from the fuckin team someone he's been managing england since january ffs

If this is the way Gareth Bale is going to insist on playing from now on we might as well cash in and take our £40m or whatever.

Also useless fucking chokers don't deserve Champions League football etc etc.

I might give up watching football for the rest of the season, this is horrible.

Thinking back on two years ago and remembering how we actually found a new level on the run-in, beating Arsenal, Chelsea and City. This is just useless.

absolutely shocking call from the ref for their goal tho, could never have been a fk. Sun in friedel's eyes?

But jesus christ bale is breaking my heart, you have to really try to be so fucking stupid time after time.

come on newcastle imo, modric can fro and all, he's been playing within himself all season.

Spurs just don't have the patience to play against teams that put everyone behind the ball, too much good approach play is being wasted by stupidly going for glory rather than keeping possession and waiting for a slip-up.

I think I just saw ithappens throwing a strop at the linesman's decision though.

Bale just walked into the QPR crowd to get the ball back. Not clever.

next season then: no Champs League/probably no Europa League > no Adebayor, Bale, Luka, maybe VDV idk > no real muscle in transfer market > Ramos-esque ill-judged managerial appointment = 14th place finish remember where you read it first

The £70m or so we'd get from selling that lot would go a long way but only with the right manager to spend it and I've no idea who that would be. It's been a fun three years or so but it's over and Spurs have no one to blame but themselves.

I'm not sure what would be worse, dropping out of the race swiftly or winning the next couple of games only to lose to Fulham on the last day of the season with Martin Jol running the length of the pitch to celebrate right in front of Daniel Levy.

spurs have nobody to blame but themselves redknapp

Obvious lack of rw cover has fucked the balance of the attack, and he's not tried anything to fix it because lennon's absence has allowed him to play vdv modric and bale in the trident that only worked the once (against norwich, ffs) but had the papers raving about his tactical genius.

Gallas has embarrassed himself this past several weeks, Parker has lost his composure, Modric has stopped showing for Parker/Bale/Ekotto, Bale is quickly becoming a cunt and VDV just doesn't do anything much. Adebayor can't be fucked challenging or taking on centre halves so just runs into the wings instead, Walker is, expectedly tbf, prone to massive gaffes in defence.

This was the best attacking unit for five months of this season ffs, it's fuckin astonishing to watch them now- a shambles today. Punting it to Defoe all match, why the fuck even bother turning up? Even in possession it was one man on the ball surrounded by disinterested strangers.

This is like being a fuckin spurs supporter all over again.
