Tottenham Pre Match Thread

[C'mon City]

All this talk about Pellers causing this debacle is conjecture imh. Not a chance that he is the sole decision maker. Too much is at stake for that to be the case. We did this v Spurs, Liv, Stoke and yesterday. As if the higher ups just sit and take it. The results imh are 80% the result of the players. I'm not suggesting Pellers isn't somewhat at fault but as if Abu Dhabi just presses simulate at the beginning of each match. The squad lack workrate and can't handle playing their game if down a goal.

 

[Lomas has a lob on]

we will lose this game , because the simple fact Pochetino is a vastly superior tactical manager than MP , we may have better players , but every opposition manager knows exactly how MP will play , he will attack , and hope to score more than our opponents , he will also start with Toure , which is effectively like playing with ten men.

Very debatable, taking injuries into account, I'd say their starting 11 on Sunday will be better than ours.

Can't see us winning with the injuries and contrasting form. They press high up as well and Manuel doesn't know how to counteract.

Hope you guys smash them and bring them back down a peg or two!

City are the superior team, have better attacking players and when on tune an overall better style of play.

Hart
Sagna Kompany Otamendi Clichy
Fernando
Delph Fernandinho
Silva
Kelechi Aguero

You guys could really do with a better distributor from the DLP role than Fernando but still his presence in there alongside Delph and Fernandinho should strengthen City defensively.

How come this guy. A Arsenal fan? Knows more than a lot of BM posters about our players?

That is when good managers earn their corn , they win games against all odds , sincerely hope MP proves me wrong.

Opinion pal,not fact.I happen to agree with his line up though,it has balance,ability and fight,and we're gonna need a bag load of all 3.

We need to setup defensively for this one and try to play on the counter. 3 man central midfield with Nando, Dinho and Delph. Nacho, Sterling and Kun to lead the line. Clichy in place of Brick Boot.

Just don't lose again! If we can sneak in a goal early, we can shut shop. Can't believe what my expectations against Tottenham have become after totally dicking them 2 years running.

 

[waspish]

Didn't Pellegrini say Silva ain't fit for next week game.

 

[kaz7]

Mp will NOT change,expect exactly the same set up and tactics and probably the same result
