Spurs XI vs Leicester City

By The Boy -

Tottenham Hotspur host Leicester City in matchday 26 of the Premier League on Sunday 10th February, 1:30pm at Wembley Stadium.

The hosts currently sit in 3rd place in the table having beaten Newcastle United 1-0 last time out, while the visitors are in 12th after their 0-1 loss against Manchester United.

Redknapp’s ghost Tottenham have set a new Premier League record of going 29 Premier League games without a single draw. The last top-flight team to have a longer run were Portsmouth between March 1928-February 1929 (38 games).

SPURS XI Lloris (C), Trippier, Sanchez, Vertonghen, Rose, Winks, Sissoko, Skipp, Eriksen, Son, Llorente.

Full side below?

Goals on demand Over the course of their previous 20 Premier League matches, Mauricio Pochettino’s men have scored at a rate of over two goals per game. What’s more, a minimum of three goals have been netted in six of their last eight fixtures at this level.

Early Spurs strike? Leicester have a significant problem when it comes to conceding first, doing so nine times in their most recent 11 Premier League games. Tottenham, by way of contrast, have gone 1-0 up in six of their last eight top-flight fixtures at Wembley.

Wasn’t hard, their defence was garbage last season. I wonder what Poch could do with 200m?

Why disrespectful? If I was manager and we eaten Arse with the last kick of the game I would have run on the pitch to celebrate with the players. Quirky Klopp is a passionate guy endearing himself to the Liverpool fans. I like that.

Each to their own, Klopp isn’t on the same planet as Poch if you ask me.

Klopp is under far more pressure to win something than Poch.

Because I feel he is overrated and if he had to operate under the clowns that own Spurs Like Poch does, that he would fare significantly worse.

Plus he annoys me running doing things like running onto the pitch like a big kid, as he did against Everton. It’s disrespectful of the opposition and all about projecting an image of himself. Bit of a clown really.

– Full backs not good enough
– Need a creative midfielder
– Adding pace to the flanks
-Quality back up striker.

It will be close but with DeBruyne getting sharper with every game you sense that Citeh’s petrodollar juggernaut is back on track.

Tough to call but I can easily see Liverpool being reeled in, the pressure might prove just too much for the Klopp hype machine…

You say that but should we lose to Burnley, Chelski, Arse, Spammers, Citeh and Liverpool + other fixtures that could bring Arse and Chelski back into the reckoning.

Whilst Spurs are clearly in the box seat for a top 4 spot IMO lets see what happens at the end of the season when seemingly moi of little faith having not been the only poster to have questioned our top 4 credentials especially as we have some tough fixtures ahead.

Manure have done too much faltering already and Cheatski are now out faltering everyone. We would have to seriously implode Chav-style to miss out now, still have Kane & Alli to return too.

Easty:-

1. Significantly Liverpool have a game in hand when too close to call the title race currently looks like it is going down to the wire.
2. Equally should Spurs falter the fight for Top 4 spot could go down to the wire.

The fans have been treated poorly to be fair. I’ll still be coming over the pond for my yearly trip but like you said in an early post. Other then my ticket, wont pay a cent inside the stadium. I’ll spend my money going to atwerps & bricklayers. Always manage a good time even if it’s not on match day.

Could handle all of them if fans could be bothered to come support the f u c k I n g team. Season ticket holders getting their £52 back and coating off the f u c k I n g suits on the internet. Best fans in the world my arse. Not even all the community tickets are being used. Its embarrassing. As I said I feel sorry for the poch and the boys.

In fairness looking at our bench before the match it looked pretty thread bare for anyone to fill the role skipp was given to do apart from a half fit wanyama who only just recently come back from injury, non else.

Incidentally, Tappaspur, while you’re there, I wasn’t meaning to imply that we would only get 2 points from the five upcoming fixtures that I highlighted (viz. away games at Liverpool, City, Chelski and home ones against Hammers and the Foxes), but simply to point out the potential hazards and low returns from these games. Thinking about it on your basis, I think I would have suggested a possible return of just 4 points and not above 8 in any case. Now, with a victory (albeit a rather fortuitous one) against Leicester, 4 , hopefully, looks a little pessimistic. To win three of these games, we would be doing very well and to win four would be astounding … and, alas, highly improbable!

Some truth in that, but while Dortmund will probably give us a right going over if we repeat this afternoon’s performance, I think for a floodlit European game there will be a more charged atmosphere and that may help us to put in a much better performance.
