Spurs (h) pre-match thread

[RandomJ]

I hate playing the spuds. Always raise their game against us. Hopefully our players aren't too tired.

 

[Easy]

Agree but Trippier is lethal with his crosses with Kane and Ali running on that will be one of there main threats if they happen to get in our half.

True but I see Poch being much less adventurous than usual for fear of a blowout. We are a possession team but I would also say we one of the most dangerous teams on the counter. With Silva and Kev supplying the through balls and Sane & Sterling running into them along with Aguero and Jesus both predators in the box always ready for the cutback or tap in. Opposing defenses have a lot to fear.

Think their defense can be got at.

Also the game really depends on which Kane, Alli, Eriksen will show up today.

First goal crucial.

7-0 to the spuds, our suspect defence will be got at this time

Hi Phil.

It's not countless it's 18 yes 18 points behind us and it's that big for a reason.

Pardon me for not carrying the full league table on my head, but you get my point

Did he say anything about people who were bad in a previous life?

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Toughest game of the season

Not for me. That was Chelsea away.

No doubt, he will be on BT later. Telling Pep where he's going wrong ;-)

I know this is wrong really but all I'm hoping for today is to be able to watch a half decent game of football (and a win for City obviously). The last few games where the opposition have sat so deep, wasted time and tried to kill the game from minute 1 have been pretty soul destroying. It's going to be bloody cold tonight so I'm hoping for some entertainment at least.

 

[Bellamy's Caddy]

We've struggled against Spurs in the last few years due to their intensity and high pressing, however this season we seem to have got to grips with that approach, the Napoli games for example.

It will be a tough game, but Spurs aren't at the same level as previous seasons and no team will be looking forward to facing City at the moment.

Hopefully we get an early goal and can play our usual game.

Don't forget, hot drinks only £1 ;-)

Just seen all the spurs players having lunch in the radisson. All looking very healthy!

Come on city.

 

[SWP's back]

Our first PL test against a team designed to attack.

Yeah that Liverpool side are annoying playing for an Italian style 1-0 every game.

 

[TFC]

Lots and lots of paper chit chat from the spuds side today about how they are up to the task, blah de fucking blah. Lets give the ****s a proper humping City.
