Spurs (h) pre-match thread

3-1. You heard it here first

It's the pundits that say they are doing into form. Yet they haven't played any one yet in the top 6 and beat them.

Yeah i know. Wasn't digging at you. Just confirming my opinion of said muppets/pundits.

 

[Armaan]

Win this and the rest will literally think “why bother” before matches against us. This is so important because if we win it we will truly seem unbeatable to the rest of the league.

Kun looked good against Swansea and could use a run of games. Jesus can take Leicester apart next week and Dinho can get his yellow to be banned from a meaningless game.

 

[BLUE THUNDER]

Kun looked back to his best v Swansea. I honestly believe Pep has improved his all round game and taken him to another level. This was interrupted by his car accident/injury however we will see the fruits of his labour if Pep gives him a run of games.

Hopefully, Kompany can play.

Ederson
Walker - Kompany - Otamendi - Delph
Fernandinho
De Bruyne - - Silva
Sterling - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Sane
Gabriel Jesus​

There's no reason not to go all out. Feck league cup. 3 - 1 city.

I bet Pochettino has plastered all over the Spurs training ground Pep's comments calling them the Harry Kane team.

They would love nothing more to brag about being the team that ended City's winning run alongside 2 very good results against Real Madrid.

Must be at 100% on Saturday.

Win this game and I don't see why we can't win every other league game leading up to Liverpool away.

Huge incentive.

Nothing will ever top the 5-2 in 1994 for me. Not even the Ballet on Ice, although I concede I wasn’t even born then. I suspect you were?

Not quite the the ballet on ice, but a very agreeable second best for those of us lucky enough to have been at Maine Road that day in 1977... particularly as I was just a little too young to have attended that legendary performance some nine years earlier

 

[Bluep*ss]

Think this will be a tough game. I would start with the favoured team of most fans.

--------------Ederson--------------
Walker--Otamendi-Mangala--Delph
----------------Dinho-------------------
Sterling--Silva---Debruyne----Sane
----------------Aguero.............

Imo , most media will be willing for Spurs to peg us back.
Watched Son , who now plays for Spurs , in the Bunderliga Highlights show and always rated him.He seems to be in form.
Usual start for teams at the Etihad is play it tight , then if it is a draw they come out in the second half and give it a go.
I really hope we are 'at it ' from the off and stun them with 2 early goals. IIRC did we beat them 6-3 a few years back.?.
Who scored , was Tevez playing ?.

Imagine playing on surfaces like that week in week out
