Hi Guys,

Hope you're all well.

We've done a preview of sorts looking at how Spurs could trouble West Ham this weekend. After watching their games this season it's noticeable that they fail to track runners from deep areas into the penalty area meaning Alli could do some damage this weekend.

Spurs vs West Ham preview

Hope you enjoy.

Cheers,

Sam

Good article. Worth mentioning we have been a different team away compared to at Wembley in the league.

I think Kane will be our difference maker. Their weak defence won't be able to handle him but our back three should be fine hadling their attacking threat.

Dele Alli is absolute class, he is a goal scoring machine...

its a shame the referees ain't protecting Alli's talent more on the pitch. I find it so shameful the moment of fouls he receives blatantly targeted on the field looking for a reaction (it's no wonder he reacts to some of them), the referee have to be more observant.

The goal he scored against Barnsley his anticipation and moment to get onto the ball was first class.

I'm looking forward to this game. Reading the WHU forums, they are not. They hope to get a draw at best, and in reality not to lose too heavily. Slags are desperate for us to play our kids in the EFL cup to give them half a chance.

Dele can be the difference in all games at any time.
which is why I like the boy.
Rare talent.
Agree needs protection.
If the sheriff won't act
then he takes the law into his own hands
with predictable results.

Interesting thing is that he's not really coming from deep at the moment. He's spending more and more time in the box, playing almost like a 9 and a half.
