Just about to head off to the pub with the kids for the game as my son is desperate to watch this new start.

Ange has brought that feeling back to the club.

COYS!

Haven’t been interested in Spurs for 3/4 years, other than they’re my team and the misery every bloody week.
Would love 3 points but if we give it a go that’s all that matters.

Good to see Sky concentrate on Chelsea v Liverpool when it’s actually Brentford and Spurs up first. Never change. I wonder if they’ll discuss Brentford or Spurs when the Chelsea game comes up.

You can tell Sky haven’t done any research at all on us or Ange, they keep droning on about the attacking unit as if they expect the Mourinho, Espirito Santo and ****e low block cure for insomnia crap of pretty close to the last 4 years.and where will we replace Kane’s goals from, they even have us lined up in a 4231 with Maddison as the
AM when it’s 100% 433, the players have spoken about it during pre season and Skipp was openly talking about what Ange wants of the two 8s and the licence it has given him on Tuesday after the Barcelona game.

Really intrigued as to how all this pans out. Even though the style will be so different, we were still getting caught out with the ball over the top almost every time in pre season. We’ll have more pace now so that will help but I have a feeling we’ll be involved in a quite a few high scoring games.

Can’t wait to see Maddison link up with our strikers. Could go either way today so I’m going for a hard fought 14-0 win for us. 🙏

And played in every game as England won the U21 European Championship

My worry is that there isn't any strikers on the bench, not even Scarlett.
Yea Scarlett on the bench could’ve been good but I think if an issue with Richy then Son goes up top and being Perisic or Solomon on, easy.

Meh - always looking for problems!

We got beat far post in the preseason with Porro, twice, and Davies once. Royal and VdV will help there also!
LOl. you must not realize that with my tactics, the Boca U10 bronze team won the Flight 3 1995 Palm Beach Cup.

Kidding of course. I am so excited to see this team play. The opportunities on the far post were more than those 3 sucessful ones though. we get really compact For most teams, it isn't a worry but for a team that executes well, it will be a painful watch. But other than that, i couldn't be more pleased with what we've seen so far.

Fingers crossed
vdv (spell correct keeps changing him to Bev) settles in quickly
some nice, quick passing moves
a comfortable two goal win
a confidence building goal for Richarlison
and
Levy you‘re a naffer get out of our club ringing nice and loudly from the Spurs end

Loving the positivity in here again.

I hope and think we will win but won’t be any easy game.

If we don’t then it’s the start of a new chapter but there will be some excitement and enjoyment watching us play again so won’t be a waste of our time like under Jose & Conte.

Let’s rock and roll Ange style, Bazball football here we go 💪

Looking forward to seeing is play attacking football again . I think we'll be a bit fragile at the bank for the first five or six games though. Expecting lots of goals and entertainment today.

They're talking about Tottenham, I'm genuinely shocked

Edit: lasted 12 seconds before going to the break.

That's one of the things to like about Ange - he has a style he wants to play. And he will select the players he thinks can fit that style, and they can grow and learn along the way.

Bumpy roads ahead - but I like where we are headed.
Exactly. Bold selection and pleased he’s made it. Fingers crossed we have enough about us today, very tough opener.
