Tottenham Thread

What's with all the defeatest "we're going to lose to City" mentality on here? Do you genuinely  believe it or just getting  your excuses in early?

 

You're 2 points behind us, isn't it your best start to a season, you're at home, on a Monday night, and we have been pretty average so far this season.

 

It's going to be a tough game for both City and Spurs and can really go either way.

 

I'm  hoping Pep has learnt from how we played at Anfield and will try a Mourinho 'secure a point' first and not just go gungho for a victory like he usually does.

 

Two great games between us last season; hope for the same again.

A draw at Palace??

 

I want five wins from six....the Citeh game is a lost cause unless we can infect their team bus with gastroenteritis. :biggrin:

I don't realistically consider City a rival so losing to them doesn't matter.  They'll keep steamrolling sides until a sizable gap appears at the top because the rest of us will keep dropping the odd point here and there and they will win the league quite comfortably.  At times i find it hard to see how their fans can get excited going into games they know is won before the starting whistle blows!!

 

Palace are tricky and i just wonder that we might run out of steam at the end of that ridiculous run of fixtures.

Rotation makes tht a tad redundant at this point...its in big games later in the season that we shall see his decision.

I suppose he could opt to play Eriksen deeper, at the expense of a fading Dembele but theres no way he'd drop Eriksen.  He's more likely to keep using Lamela as an impact player, similar to Son.  Lucas Moura could be the one to drop out though?

I don't think Dele Alli's going to be fit for atleast a couple of weeks but Eriksen should start in Eindhoven.

To be fair, Lamela's ongoing injury issues make it an easy decision for Poch not to play him all the time !

Yeah..  lucky for poch eh!!   against the spammers all the plaudits quite rightly so went to lamella..   but carms..  moura for 60 mins  thought he ABSOLUTELY terrorised the spammers,  borderline unplayable . leaving him out....  sucks .. he's the only attacker weve had that can carry the ball  forward so quickly since..?? Bale?  any else ?   walker i suppose but his finally delivery TOTALLY took the shine of  them And gut reaction is that poch has been after  , 'a world stage' wide performer since ... day one and he's finally found one.. will he be the one to drop out.. i'm thinking not as he offers somemthing diferent BLISTERING  RAW PACE ..  but they all cant start..???? one thing havin strength in depth.. i joked about being blessed but dont think I've EVER seen our front line with so many REAL game changers that 100 % WILL win u games

 

 

Edit   alfie,  strongest  in depth .. since  .the early to mid 80 's ? days of the likes of brazil gibson  ect . not thay the fat <deleted> ever did a shift... however the depth was there ..

Well 3-2 we certainly don't need any attacking midfielders right now!!

 

Def mid more like....and a backup striker perhaps....crikey even our third choice keeper would do the job comfortable.

Wilmar Barrios is arriving in january., for a reported 23m

Still got to get enough points to qualify for the Europa so all to play for. 

 

Sardonic yet not at all unexpected.

 

Yes all to play for and another enjoyable performance accepting we are now out of the CL.

Not at all OK maybe just a bit sardonic and yh I googled it. Good place to start the Europa and let's be honest going into the Europa provides a lot more expectation than the CL. Realistic chance in the Europa.

I didn’t think it was that bad. He looked like he was pulling out, carried on sliding and caught him with his knee.

His studs are not up at the moment of contact, he hits him with his Knee.  Cant see anything that nasty about it. Red card debatable having watched it many times.
