This is so refreshing to have a nice friendly debate without in fighting or name calling. This is how it should be with respect for each other’s posts and opinions.

Nailed on Kane, Son find their scoring boots, even bigger certainty is the clown in goal Lloris will have an absolute worldie and save everything, unlike today

These games haunt me…

We are in awful form at the moment and the worst possible opponent is probably our bogey team Spurs. An absolutely dreadful side full of useless players who always get a result against us no matter how terrible they play. Doesnt matter if we have 40 shots and they 1, it's dead certain PLs worst GK Lloris will somehow have his game of the year and that Son or Kane will score on their only chance from their embarrassing and shameless park the bus and boot it long tactic. Happens every year. Im usually just a bit pessimistic when facing the luckiest team in the world but on our current form a loss seems dead certain.

I hope a miracle happens and that Spurs for once dont get rewarded with a win despite being absolutely horrendous the entire game. That we bounce back big and finally give them the trashing our performances against them usually deserves in a 5-0 win.

But more likely it will be the same old, 10 men bus parked in their penalty box, 32-1 in chances in our favor, 3.2-0.1 in xG and 0-1 on the scoreboard. Cant wait.

A stuffy 2-0 to them with 4,000 passes for us

So true... also 0 shots on target for us

At the moment Pep doesn't know what to with either Haaland or Alvarez. Not sure what I expect. Plus we always lose to Spurs.

Actually we dont always lose to spurs. Yes at their ground but i think last years result has clouded it for some. we actually have a pretty good record against them at the etihad under pep.

We need players who know how to get behind a Spurs back 5 , drop Erling, Phil and Bernardo and go Steve Mackenzie, Terry Phelan and John Macken, easy.

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

There was enough in their 2nd half performance today to know that they'll cause us big problems. But if we can't score past that defence then I'll have major concerns for the rest of our season

Brace yourself

And we could sign them all for free before Thursday.
