Spurs (A) - Sun 15 Aug 1630 | Pre-Match Thread

Pep Guardiola when asked how he reflects on last season ending with defeat in the Champions League final: "It was an exceptional season, one of the best I have experienced in my life. It was very good. I congratulate the team one what we did last season. It will be in our memories forever."

This was put on the bbc page. Good effort by pep clearly the question is asked implying City should have a negative opinion on last season. He didnt bite and turned it into a positive question.

Pep said 'we will see in the next few days'. If he was out he would say he was out. We can have 8 on the bench so I believe he will be on the bench.

From what I can remember you were adamant Grealish wasn't going to play last weekend too.

kev is different , pep says he cant do full training , that is all, very wrong to rush him into a game in 48 hrs

If he's not ready when they assess him thats fine. But as of now he hasn't been ruled out.

I think the combination of lack of pre-season combined - critically - with KDB not being available, will be our undoing. We have great midfield players but none so mobile and able to boss the middle of the park like KDB does. I am expecting us to lose this one unfortunately.

Fern in the middle maybe?

Wonder how long it will take Sky to mention £100m Grealish on sunday?
I'm going for 30 seconds after the game starts preceded by several mentions in the build up.

You're kidding? The fuckers will be doing a 'feature an hour before ko.

Where is everyone drinking pre match?

If Greasy Jack doesn't put in a masterclass tomorrow of creative, artistic, stylish, and clinical proportions, with a couple of goals and two or three assists, I hope Txiki has kept the receipt, and we can send the lad back! Villa have to be the Lidl of the PL - no problem returning stuff and getting yer money back.

Brilliant player, love him. But he doesn't create much. Tries some through balls which rarely come off. The trouble is for me that without KDB (or sadly, the maestro David SIlva) we tend to huff and puff in midfield and run around a lot but without actually causing any goal threat. I hope I am wrong.
