Tottenham - EFL Cup Final | Pre-Match Thread

[Phil1]

Except leading up to & including the rags Leeds & Chelsea & probably today

We win that Leeds game 99/100.
Chelsea’s game was shocking and I won’t be making excuses for that.
I’ll wait until after today before proclaiming it to be a disaster but then I’m an eternal optimist.

Has anyone been on a Tottenham fan forum to gauge their feelings? I have to assume they're very confident.

So you want to treat a final like it’s a pre season friendly? I love Sergio, but this isn’t a game he should be starting.

Don’t think he should. Think he will though

They have every reason to be,this is by far their best chance of losing the Spursy tag.

Match - Tottenham vs City - EFL Cup Final - Ref Fucks Up

Something I came across today thought I would post it here. The story of our alternative cup final kit colours Sunday’s showpiece match at Wembley will see us run out in shirts other than Lilywhite in a major cup final for only the fifth time in our history. Due to a colour clash with...

thefightingcock.co.uk

They don’t seem as weird and vitriolic as United and Liverpool’s main forums. They seem more bothered about Noel Gallagher.

Txt my mate who’s a Spurs ST holder. He thinks we will win, BUT, even he said if we have Sterling and Torres up front, they won’t have much to worry about and might just get the result. They know we have CL game, so can press us really hard and run us around.
If Son and Kane play a full game, I think they will win.
It’s all about if our ‘reserve’ players decide to turn up!

If Mendys starting games Sergio fucking Aguero deserves his chance. I think he's bloody well earned it over the last 10 years.

He won't though. We'll playing Sterling up there instead.

It is,but then theres also the chemistry,or rather the lack of it......we can put out an 11 that looks great to the neutral,but when they havent played togther regularly the cohesion and understanding just won't be there.

I agree if he goes with the same front line that ferran has to be in the middle ,too much to hope fror raz right and gabby left i suppose

Time for a massive glass of Jack Daniels.

Leeds have turned into Swindon!!
Cünts.

The boost and energy kick the players will get from lifting a trophy today will be much more beneficial that 90 minutes sat on the bench,

I’m sure Pep as enough experience to know this.
Go strong and use the subs well and we go in to CL game with a spring in are step.
Come on city rip them apart.

 

[Damanino]

Come on City, our second row is better than theirs anyway apart from Son, Kane.

In the meantime i try to channel the energy for Leeds to hold onto a point at least.

 

[tregyblue61]

No fucking about today.

Strongest side every game now.

Steffen
Walker Dias Laporte Zinchenko
Gundogan Rodders Bernardo
Foden Jesus Mahrez

Bale actually caused us a few problems when he came off the bench in our most recent win at the Etihad.

If he starts, we absolutely need someone who will also help get back and cover the full back.

I would actually like to see Jesus start wide and have Torres down the middle.

If Foden starts, our percentage to win improves plenty.

Please no Mendy or Garcia.

 

[FrankSwift1]

On train to the pub. First final I've missed. Come on city!!!!

 

[mancityscot]

can see this being a really tough game. Expecting a complete abomination of a starting line up

Same mate hope your wrong though and we bring that trophy home.

Bale loves a final hope he doesn't start.

Most important game is today. Strong team please. Get it won. First trophy will give us a lift going into the semi final.

Never take finals for trophies lightly. Otherwise we are in danger of becoming Man U...
