Spurs (H) Pre Match Thread

[mosssideblue]

they should be ok for top 4 even if they lose on saturday and they have a home game on tuesday night at home vs brighton ?? so maybe rest players vs city knowing even if they go 100% they could still lose to city so just park the bus and keep the score down

Depends whether Poch wants to gamble with Should

the win vs city in champions league was their game on the season (cup final) just like the old man city we never won anything ?? but won great games at times then fuck up in the next round ??? every club has a big moment in the season and spurs has had theirs

 

[BlueMoonz1977]

Line up for has to be this :

————————————Ederson————————————-
Walker———Stones——————Laporte———Mendy

———-B.Silva——-Fernandinho——-KDB——————

Sterling——————-Aguero——————————Sane


Replace Fern with Gundo if he aint fit enough. We need to get Sane on the pitch as he should be starting games not coming on in the 80th minute. The problem we have is didnt Pep say that Mendy and Sane cant play together !!! Well that isnt good enough because if Mendy can stay fit and he would become our no.1 leftback where does that leave Sane ??

The occasion got to us last night, Laporte has been solid, and Ederson too, this season. I don’t see us making the same number of mistakes again in one game, City will want payback, and this is another cup final for us, not so Spurs, so we will go out with real purpose and put them to the sword. KDB was fucking awesome, as was Sterling, so they will again cause havoc. Pep will refocus the boys and I can’t see anything other than City winning again

We will win the next 6.

if any team can do it, it is City, but....if we're honest, this is a monumental task, look at 'Pool's remaining games, i don't see any pitfalls, which means we need to win out our five league games. away to manu, burnley and brighton should be easy enough, but this is the premiership, nothing is easy and these are the type of fixtures we sometimes struggle to score in even though we dominate the game. also spurs and foxes who both can score.
draws are no good so we can't afford any slip ups in five matches, and how many did we have on Wednesday in one game?,
self inflicted or otherwise. we need a lot to go right,
but like i said we can do it, taking it one game at a time, and that's what will make it so rewarding to raise the Premiership Trophy.
i am certain we will win the trip to wembley. Watford had a nice comeback over Wolves but they will just not get enough possession against us to do a whole lot.

We had a defining week last season and came up short when we got knocked out the CL against Liverpool and bottled the chance the win the PL against United.

We've got a similar week now with huge games against Spurs x 2 and United. We've been knocked out of the CL now and I don't see history repeating itself twice. Hopefully going out the CL will give us the motivation to beat Spurs and United and makes us odds on favourites to retain the PL.

Kane being out is a worry - we could have done with him up front to slow things down

I genuinely hope you are right, but I do not expect them to be lying down and having their tummy tickled on Sat

Their players will be exhausted after last night. They will make changes. If they don’t they will be hammered. I’m exhausted still and I was only watching it.

Pochettino has won nothing for Spurs. The CL games will now he his priority. He is 2 games away from a CL final.

They also have 3 of their last 4 games at home and a nice away at already on the beach Bournemouth.

yep, they are better without him

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

Not sure what fresh legs they can bring in that will strengthen them. We can bring in Stones, Ferny, Sane, Danilo or maybe Zinchenko, Jesus

Hi New Here,

Fair play to you guys, you must be proud of your team you are performing at an incredible level, you might get 198 points over 2 season, a feat never seen before, your team will be looking to put yesterday loss behind and make things right, I can see a brutal trashing happening for this one something like 4 or 5 - 1.

We may finish at 97 points and still dont win it, really crazy, the derby seems like the decider but the vast majority of utd fans over redcafe want to bend over, they hate liverpool more than anything else , so not couting on them.

 

[lionheart]

We will need Walker, Fernandinho, De Bryne, Bernardo, Sterling and Aguero to be suitably rested for the upcoming Manchester derby, so I expect 2-3 of these to be on the bench and 2-3 to be absent from the squad on Saturday. Tottenham will rest players too, so I expect a City win with Jesus and Sane scoring.

 

[aguerooooo]

ffs tighten up at the back and why no Stones? Son is quality have to be on our mettle another f=up and we could be out of the Prem race really hope we have revenge in mind its time ro drop David Silva and play Gundo and ferna and how about that kid Sane ive heard he is worth more rhan a 9 minute cameo

 

[No One Understands]

We need to fuck em for illegally dumping us out of that bent competition. Not that it was their fault anyway. Mind you the way that useless lump celebrated as if he was vindicated with regards to his goal pissed me right off. UEFA has always been bent. At least we can now focus on what is truly important, and smash every fucker between now and the end of the season. Although it won't matter in the media much if the scousers win that bent competition.

Hello Rory.

Yes very proud of City at the moment. I would ignore what Man Utd fans say on their message board. When we go there, they will desperately want to beat us, and remember they are playing for the CL qualification too.

I also feel that the next two games are going to be very significant. It will be very hard on the team who finishes 2nd because they will get a fantastic points total but they can also be proud and optimistic for the future. City have done very well because it would have been so easy to drop off in performance after last season and then we have had bad injuries to de Bruyne which have had an effect. Liverpool I felt have had a lot of moments of fortune but are also a tremendously strong football team, and I can see you winning the Champions League this season. Barcelona will be favourites but I think they are beatable. Unfortunately the fixture pile up counted against City in the Champions League where we played an unusual containing job at Spurs.

Llorente’s now admitting the handball, and no doubt the Spurs media bods are telling him to stop giving interviews and telling the world it was an illegal goal.

Hi there, stick around if your posts are going to continue being like that. Whoever wins the league will have deserved it, but you might only lose one game all season and still not win it, our two clubs have been bloody amazing up to yet.
