Spurs (H) | Pre-Match Thread

spurs have been a complete pain in the arse opponent for us the past few seasons. Something about their stubbornness and their pace going forward which tends to get the better for us. We're owed a good result against them tomorrow to make up for the rotten luck in recent years.

The problems we have always had against them is fast counters fucking us over, and us not controlling their ability to do something crazy like the Son goals in Europe. Pep has taken a shift, he wants us to play slow and controlled. That way even if we get countered, because we are slow and in control we should be able to get cover and get back in time. We were only caught out a few times by Liverpool and it was nearly always by the switch passes (and the one over the top for Salah which Ruben was actually perfectly positioned to cut out). I don't think it will be high scoring, but we should control it and grind them out.

More to do with Son any chance he scores

It’s simple, we keep a clean sheet we win the game.

Easier said than done, with Son and "one of our own" on the pitch. By the way; I haven't seen our resident Spurs fans for a while. Where are they hiding?

Whose “one of our own” ?

Whose “one of our own” ?

Seriously? It's Saint Harry. They're obsessed with claiming him as "one of our own", ever since pictures of him wearing an Arsenal shirt as a kid emerged.

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.

and this shithouse trick we need to look out for

I'm expecting to see a knackered spurs team with not a lot to offer to be honest

We turn up and play anywhere like we can and we win
