Anyone any idea what went on as he played about 16 minutes as a second half sub before getting pulled off . Did not seem to be injured but looked rather upset on the sidelines ?

Maybe Lambert didn't think it would do him any good to play him against opposition like that but gave him a little taster of the high life to motivate him? None of us have a clue what the thinking was.

Spurs started the second half with Joe Hart in goal then subbed him off, you can't read anything into these decisions. They're just trying to give everybody a bit of game time.

To be fair when Nolan came on he looked the best player in Town shirt yesterday even if just for few minutes.


You're joking? Good close control but just went sideways with it, as usual.

I bet Bloots will downarrow this.

Assumed it was planned to give Nolan half an hour.

Still think that given McGavin's youth, and the fact it had happened before, that if P.L. wanted to do that, then better to start Nolan for 25 mins, then bring the youngster on for final 20.

Maybe, but allowed Nolan to warm up with the fitness coach during the opening 15 mins.

Pretty sure it was just to give the guy the experience of playing there, plus Nolan needing minutes but not being able to manage 45 against a Prem team. Seems fine to me.

We should all know by now that its pointless trying to guess or understand what goes through Lambert's head.

Phil's making it up... he was sat in the garden in his hot tub.

Does make it rather curious that as Wickets has correctly stated the lad appeared quite upset that he had been taken off.

You could be right but for me this kinda makes it worse because Brett should have know the plan and he clearly didn't !

I make you right, we're speculating of course we are and yes there could be some innocent explanation like he had a knock and appeared upset because of that. But it really didn't look like that, it looked like he didn't expect to be taken off and was quite upset by it.

Hopefully somebody put their arm around him at a later date and talked it through with him and no harm was done. But it certainly looked like poor management one way or another (and I have no axe to grind with Lambert on this), it's very fair speculation and I don't know why some have replied rather aggressively to your suggestion.
