We are winning this 3-1, upset of the week following the Palace one

The atmosphere better not be as bad as the last game at goodison, massive game this need be up for it from the start...

I’d start Calvert Lewin again today aswell, zouma and keane at the back...

 

[Zatara]

I'd love us to win this mostly because it would shut a few people up for Christmas at least. A draw wouldn't be a disaster though. 2-2.

Id take anything from this one...would love a win to stay on the tail of United coming into the last few games of the year.

4-0 spurs and this forum descends into civil war just in time for Christmas

...be interesting who he selects at CB, i’d certainly go with Zouma/Mina but I accept Keane is doing ok. Not sure of the latest news regarding Gueye’s fitness or whether he is in talks with PSG but I wouldn’t be surprised if McCarthy gets on the pitch today. DCL to start.

I think it'll be Zouma and Mina today as well eggs but I guess it really does depend on Gueye fitness. If he's out he will probably stick with 3 at the back. I'd rather Davies come in tbh than have Gylfi drop so deep like he did against City.

Might see Mccarthy on the bench though

Went over to a Spurs forum to see what the consensus was and a few of them seem worried we might have this in the bag. Which surprised me.

I'm not so confident, but I hope I'm wrong. Any injuries among Tottenham? If Son starts we're in trouble, he always seems to score against us.

Big day for the top blooos today.

 

[kiss the crest]

Please NO DCL, we need people to finish, I am sick of watching us create lots of chances only to squander them.
DCL can’t finish his dinner

Got a fun game lined up. Each Everton goal means an extra 5k seats at the stadium, Spurs goals means 5k less. We start on 50k.

Son will start I think as he has more nonsense internationals coming up for S.Korea and will miss a few games in the near future.

Vertonghen and Dier definitely will miss this one. Aurier and Wanyama also out I believe.

Sanchez and Foyth could be available.

Poch will definitely rotate though so no idea what team he put out.

We need to put on a performance today. It feels like a big game. I want to see a bit more bite and intensity today.

 

[Kenshin]

What a difference a few games make.

We aren't even tip 10 anymore.

Completely different perspective on the season if we lose today. Not saying I'm disappointed mind you, said it at the start I'm happy to give Silva and brands a year free of charge to implement their style on the club so where we are doesn't bother me as long as we keep seeing the improvement on the pitch.

One mistake means he’s inconsistent? What is it with the constant griping at players and looking for a scapegoat? Boils my slash.

But it isn't just the once is it. Maybe only the one that has resulted in such a high profile consequence but too much tippy tappy in his own 6 yard box, then trying a 60 yard ball that goes straight out of play, not coming for crosses when he should ((Watford's second for eg) and generally not knowing if his next touch is going to be world class or gash.

'Keeper is the one position where consistency is vital and Pickford doesn't have it. He can be brilliant but he needs to be consistent first.

 

[Tipp blue]

Palace beat City, Leicester beat Chelsea yet people on here don't think we can beat spurs at home. We are losers cereal losers, the stink of the 90's still wafts around our team and fans, bloody 40 points and the quarter final of a cup is good enough for some fans.
