Woodgate: We aren’t too good to go down

October 24, 2008

Jonathan Woodgate, Spurs defender, has slammed his teammates for underperforming and said that they ‘aren’t too good for going down.’

Woodgate was furious after his side gifted a goal to Udinese in their UEFA Cup encounter, when Heurelho Gomes made a reckless challenge in the box that resulted in a penalty for the opponents.

In the same game, Spurs’ Jamie O’Hara got 2 yellow cards within a span of one minute and was given the marching orders adding to the woes of the London club.

Now, Spurs are having huge deficits to overcome in Europe. Currently, they are languishing at the bottom of the Premier League table and fighting for relegation.

While speaking to reporters, a frustrated Woodgate said ‘We are currently in a battle to save relegation. We need to start winning consistently.’

‘We really need to start working with one another, if we want our season to improve.’

‘There are some players requiring a telling-off for getting back in shape. Presently, we are not doing it.’

‘Although we always spread the word in the team that it is a must-win game, still the needed results are missing.’

‘With 2 points only from 8 games, we are currently in a relegation battle and it does no justice to the fact that our side is one of the most talented ones in the League.’

‘We have the potential of getting out from this slump, if all our players start to fully concentrate in their game. Even, we have time in our hands. However if things don’t go accordingly, we are sure to go down.’

Spurs is going to face a trio of their foes in the Premier League within the next 9 days, in the form of Bolton, Arsenal & Liverpool.
