Spurs (H) | Pre-Match Thread

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Not looking forward to this next week, I sense hysteria either side of the divide, whether we win or lose the next three.

 

[Hoghead]

Never an equal to the purists

A slimey wretch of a man, who has gone backwards more than Benjamin Button

Don't you mean never an equal to the media.

 

[Zenmanc]

I think we’ll twat em 4, 5 or 6.

6 then please.

 

[Gray]

I feel like for the first time in a while we have a pretty much definite first choice 11 to put out in big games.


Until KDB is back....

Play him in the Cups.

 

[Cornish_Blue]

I’ll take a 1-0 now and no injuries. You can be sure Kane will be out to get Raz again.

As long as we score 1 more than they do, it will suffice.

Sounds like we have the a team in defence which is a relief

Dont touch kane and if he starts to back in move out of the way so the cheating shit hits the deck on his own

 

[domalino]

Everything going swimmingly at Spurs...

 

[bulldogblue]

Time to get one over on this lot. One goal difference would be good but hope it will be more.

 

[meeesh]

Aguero to come off bench and score a couple would be welcomed

@Ban-jani I went for win, I'm sorry

@Ban-jani I went for win, I'm sorry

Don’t worry, I’ve got this

Ref is looking straight at that leg breaker and just ignored like it never happened.
The instructions inside the brown envelope must be simple and easy to follow.

 

[The Fat el Hombre]

Can't help but feel confident with Ruben back and plenty players getting at least some rest mid week. They're still a handy team so you never know but I'd be disappointed with anything but a win really

 

[Horlocksleftpeg]

Feeling a lot more confident now Dias and Rodri are likely to be starting.

Back 5 and midfield picks itself.

Foden/Sterling will start, just a case of Mahrez or Jesus

I think Mourinho would want a carbon copy of the City Chelsea match in 2014. Chelsea were defensively excellent but caused us a huge amount of problems in attack culminating in Ivanovic’s strike. Hopefully no repeat tomorrow.

Kane and Son are superb together, Ndombele always plays well against us, even when he played for Lyon and Hojbjerg is decent. Other than that they rely on being a typical Jose side, defensively solid and no frills. They’re not playing particularly well so no doubt Jose will relish a relative shot to nothing.

Our recent record against Spurs is dreadful, 2 wins from the last 6 in all competitions (the 4-3 in the Champions League and 1-0 a few days later) will 1 draw and 3 defeats all without scoring. We have also outplayed them in most of the matches with VAR playing a critical role (3 goals disallowed) and 2 missed penalties.

If we perform then we win but from past experience Jose will do his utmost to stop us playing. Hopefully the partnership of Stones and Dias continues to soar and we win 2 or 3 nil.

Alli the little shithouse made this “tackle” in the 2nd half too.
Shame the little **** won’t be playing so someone can get retribution.
He has a lingard level of face you’d never tire of slapping.
