I have no idea honestly. Depends on which Tottenham side shows up today.

Could also have the same feeling inside that I did against Man Utd, where you already knew that it would be an very much "Tottenham" game.

Massive game this, very important for the rest of the season.
Win and we could kick on and push for a strong finish.

West Ham maybe not easy on the eye but are a very efficient team, we need to out work them at the very least and our quality should shine through.

The win/lose cycle is surely going to change soon, I think today is the day, they played 120 minutes on Thursday so we need to get at them.

A nervy 2-1 win to us.

Yes, he wasn't at his best. That said, I do feel strongly that in those instances, team defending could have been a lot better. Some of the closing down in and out of the 18 yard box was so, so, so poor. In the case of Soton and Wolves, the goals felt so similar. Players had lots of room to place crosses into the box and marking was dreadful. Burnley just did was Burnley does best. Defend like their lives depended on it, rely on getting soft free kick calls in the opponents half, then throw the big guys in there for a chance or two. And when it works, it works fabulously. When it doesn't... you're fighting a relegation battle. Unlike the Soton and Wolves game, I didn't think we deserved to lose against Dyche's lads. it was a pitiful night, and any luck to be had fell their way. Just one of those days. Soton and Watford on the other hand... that was all about not matching the other team's desire. Which is the only way we will win on Sunday. As you know they will be 100% be up for the fight. We match their will, we win. And easily.

Agree but he is the last line and needs to be better positionally and dominate the box

first goal vital today. If one of ours could pull off a worldie, or a similar bit of luck to the opener at Brighton, they will, eventually have to come out- allowing us to catch them on the break.

Obviously, key will be conceding the lowest number of free kicks and corners as we can. I look across our defence and midfield though and pretty much all of them are often guilty of committing stupid fouls close to our own goal.

And nothing fkin even more stupid- like Hugo and Davies v Wolves.

Professionally speaking it doesn't matter who it is, we need to win this game. But it would be REALLY nice to put this lot to the sword.

A 'Musn't lose' game.
A draw would not be a disaster
for our European hopes
unless you are still focused on Champions' League .
Home advantage could tip the balance
but this is one of those games
where form and logic go out the window.

Games too close together
and a lack of viable midfield/ wing-back options
inhibit Conte's choices. and plans.

Losing to Utd was the real body blow
Dylan Thomas?

It's their cup final but hopefully we don't treat it like one because we suck at them.
Unfortunately it is always their ‘cup final’ and never ours!!

Seems we can’t play cup finals or normal games v them atm!!

Need to make that home advantage count today. The ‘12th man’ needs to drive the team on…

In the away game we only conceded 2 corners but still managed to let one in.

I hate how West Ham has become a 'difficult' game for us now. Never used to be that way. I dislike them rather more than Arsenal, so regardless of where we finish this season, I would very much like to batter these gimps. I grew up in Essex and was surrounded by West Ham hooligans so a win over these tinpot fascists would be lovely.

If we honestly want to be a top 4 team this season, these are games we have to prove that we’re good enough

We need Son to return to form today...I'd say his performance could be the difference.
