I'll be there of course but my enthusiasm is waning. LCFC inspire me soon! By the way LCFC use my £500 season ticket money well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fazzyfox Posted 13 August Share Posted 13 August I could see two scenarios, firstly that both sides are a bit lukewarm, not quite sharp yet and it’s a gritty deadlock, 0-0. Or……Spurs’ cohesion, infinitely higher wage bill and transfer spend, a manager who has had a year to implement his ideas, the likes of Madison, Son, Solanke and Richarlison running at us for 90+ minutes…..it’ll be 0-4. I stop at 4 as I think they’ll make the full quota of subs to spread game time around and rest starters and lose a bit of momentum. If we had got through those friendlies looking tighter than tight at the back I’d have some hope for option 1 still but they really aren’t giving us much to build a case upon. If we sign a CF, CM/AM and Zaha by then I’ll re-assess . Think it’ll be:- Mads Justin (I’d prefer Ricardo) Faes Koli Kristiansen Ndidi Winks Buonanotte AM Fatawu RW Mavididi (False 9) DeCordova-Reid LW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ronnup Posted 14 August Share Posted 14 August 8 hours ago, Ric Flair said: A defence of Okoli and Faes is extremely scary. Vestergaard has to play whilst Coady is out. With the high line Spurs play and press, it actually suits Jan more than sitting on the half way line. Id be playing a tight 343 that sits and tries to break at pace. Weve got Pace in abundance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winks is an excellent passer. As is Jannik, and Ricardo. We just need to get the ball to the right people on turnover and hit Stephi and Fats, and whoever the **** plays in the middle can just run about 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MarriedaLeicesterGirl Posted 14 August Popular Post Share Posted 14 August I am planning to go see this one at the pub - it will be my first sports visit since my stroke! (It seems if you have a brain bleed, the scars make you prone to seizures, so have spent months building myself up to groups- sadly had to stop going to the actual games due to this). I hope the boys surprise me! 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No guarantee he picks two of them! My point here is that midfield is completely unprepared for the prem - balance in the team to pass forward is also under prepared - we have not scored a goal against Palermo, ausburg or lens and you think we have the right players - your deluded if you think without at least one if not two midfielders, a natural left back and attackers we will be completely blunt and then teams will pin us back and we do not have defenders who can keep a clean sheet !

People may write him off, but if there was ever a game that would probably suit him, it'll be this one. Is Daka back already? I thought he was possibly out for months? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Md9 Posted 14 August Share Posted 14 August Early red card for Romero , van de veen gets injured after 15 mins son and madders injured after 30 mins and then Richarlson sent off with Johnson injured after 45 mins and I think we scrape a draw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
