Team For Today

One of planet earth’s dullest humans thinks we’ll get a draw.

Former Liverpool and Newcastle striker Michael Owen reckons the mighty Tottinghams will do just enough to secure second place in the Premier League.

“I think they will draw this game 1-1 and hold on to second on goals difference”.

He may have said more on the subject, but all the hacks present slipped into a coma-like state after just one sentence.


Ahead of today’s game there is a somewhat bizarre rumour doing the rounds that Mikel Arteta will quit Arsenal to join Spurs in a coaching capacity.

I must stress, this is a social media led whisper and as yet Gladys has been unavailable for comment.


Lloris (c), Walker, Alderweireld, Vertonghen, Davies; Dier, Mason; Lamela, Eriksen, Son; Kane.

Subs – Vorm, Rose, Wimmer, Carroll, Chadli, Onomah, Clinton Cards.


Ryan Mason starts and I think this is particularly fair comment.

The boss’ hand has indeed been forced.

I’m not TC fan, but getting overrun, even by Newcastle, looks all too likely.
