Tottenham (A) - Pre-match thread

[goatersnipple]

Erikson is one of them players I can't hate a bit like Mata.

Buzzing that he's not starting he's class.

I can hate Mata easy.
Once he wears that red binbag

What the fuck has ratboy been smoking tonight levy the best owner in the prem yea ok !!!

It must be a tough time for Mahrez at the moment. Hopefully this might take his mind off it.
The team we have put out should be more than capable of dealing with Spurs threats.
Berni, Merlin and Ferni will be key tonight.

He’s obviously not seen Laporte paired with John much the daft rat faced goon

He is desperate bless him,now Levey is better than Soriano

Pretty defensive setup from Poch. Obviously wants to keep it close to last 15-20 then bring on Eriksen and Ali

 

[mosssideblue]

Any travelling blue in the ground able to say what the pitch is like close up?

 

[jimharri]

I see Pete the Badge is down there tonight!

So what if they play direct to Kane? They’ll just be gifting us the ball back as Stones and Laporte will mop it up and start attacks.

Why are people so scared of a bit of direct football? We are well trained to deal with it.

Let's hope you are right I'm not so sure we are that great dealing with direct balls we are great keeping the ball away from our opponent which prevents them going direct but on a bad pitch where keep ball may be difficult then Spurs will have more opportunity to go direct IMO.
