Spurs v City - CL QF I - Pre Match Thread

[SpursLoyal]

Away pubs are

The Elmhurst (3mins from Bruce Grove)
The Antwerp Arms (7 mins from WHL)
Harringey Irish Centre (3 mins from WHL station).
The Beehive (4 mins from Bruce Grove).

Bruce Grove is the station between Seven Sisters and WHL.

STERLING The #UCL in an unbelievable competition to be involved in. On a stage like this it's very special. We need to stay focused and try and enjoy it as much as we can

Lot's about racism.i'll put in his thread in a minute

Raheem is handling himself superbly in the press conference.He has matured into a very articulate and intelligent man who is not only a wonderful footballer but also as an ambassador for our club.

A message to Danny Murphy......This guy is a proper role model.

 

[SWP's back]

If we draw 0-0, we have to score one more than them in the return leg to go through
If we lose 3-2, we still have to score to go through, but spuds have to score one more than us

I think that is correct and based on that I would take a 3-2 loss anytime over a 0-0

Not sure if serious or taking the piss or if brain damaged at some point today.

Just re fucking read what you wrote.

In fact, fuck off. You’re all taking the piss and laughing your tits off.

I wouldn't play him at all but suspect this will be the team. Still have nightmares about his shambolic performance against Spurs at Wembley earlier this season. We'll need his height at defensive set-pieces though, as well as keeping Trippier cautious.

Too soon for Delph and Zin still injured...

The only other thing Pep might do is three at the back, Laporte the left hand side and sacrifice Mendy for another body in midfield like Silva?

Laporte left back with Stones and Otamendi/Kompany in the middle.

PEP I never know before the game how fresh our legs and minds are. The mind controls the legs. All eight teams left in are contenders to win. This leg, a tough opponent we know quite well.

Pep Guardiola on Spurs' new stadium: "If we think about what we do on the pitch it doesn’t affect. The stadium is what it is, the supporters support the team more than ever. We know what we are going to face, up to us how we handle it."

I don’t agree our performances aren’t acceptable. The FA Cup we could have been better

 

[kaz7]

PEP @aguerosergiokun feels better. He trained with the team for the first time and he feels better.

PEP This team has shown they are incredibly focused every three days, that’s why we are here. We stayed in London to avoid airports, waking up earlier, one hour more, on bus or plane. We’ve been out, had lunch together, and it gives us more time to speak.

 

[kaz7]

I wonder which **** said our performances aren't acceptable,probing about what he said about it being the Harry Kane team and the community shield doesn't count

Wonder what the negative headline will be amongst those things the day of a big game

 

[kaz7]

Pep Guardiola: "Always playing against Spurs away they will always play in that way I can’t expect differently. How we handle that if they do it we must try to do it more. Maybe they will play high press and aggressive we will prepare for that."
