Conte is here to get every last bit out of this squad in the pursuit of success.

He has done a phenomenal job thus far. I have faith that he will have us leave it all out there on Sunday.

After a weeks rest I can't not see the players giving 100% on Sunday. After all, every single one of them wants to play in the Champions League, right? I appreciate it's been a long hard season with too many ups and downs to even comprehend, but I'm certain they'll be carried through this game on adrenaline alone.

All we need to do is avoid defeat I hope that we win and son gets golden boot.

No, I think I read somewhere he was going to be out for the rest of the season (and that was a few games back)
I read somewhere before the Burnley match that he'd miss that one but might be fit for Norwich (or that he was desperate to be fit for Norwich).

I’m confident we’ll have the right mentality. Hugo, Kane, Davies, Son, PEH, Dier - these are sensible, mentally strong players IMO. People who won’t shy away, and who I would guess will approach this week with focus and professionalism. I’d throw Romero into that group too but sadly it looks like he’ll be out

And that’s before you throw Conte into the mix.

Anything can happen in football, but surely even we can get a point at Carrie Road

Let's not forget Kulusevski and Bentancur who have recently won trophies. Kulusevski scored a winner in a cup final for Juve.

It feels like we have more than enough players who will understand the importance of Sunday, that's the first step.

Conte will not allow us to not win this, he's spent the last 6 months building this team's mentality and on top of that we've got Sonny going for the golden boot. We're going to absolutely slap them.

This is essentially a cup final and these are hopefully the games were we see the difference Conte makes, our players have been here before and froze ,played within themselves ;This will hopefully prove different.

Did Liverpool and City away not prove it enough?

Norwich is our first round qualifier for the CL -we then go in proper.

Players will be up for this because they’ve had to fight for it in the last few games and will want to finish the job. It’s not been easy and drawing to Liverpool and beaten Arsenal on Thurs were game changers. Burnley was coming of age , beating Norwich is our destiny.

We need to avoid a random red card in the first half. Important not to self-sabotage. If we keep 11 men on the pitch for 90 mins I doubt we’ll lose.

Another thing, our away support is always good but they're going to be absolutely bouncing at Carrow Road.

Just got to avoid defeat surely even we can't fuck this up.
When we are such a superior side to Norwich, and we ONLY have that pressure, that is when it is easiest to F up :( if we go in and are to careful we might get shocked,

Not sure I agree with this.

Ultimately, there is no one more conservative or bearish about Spurs, and calling victory. But we only have to go there and draw. This is PERFECT for how we need to play.

We're at our best when we get our noses in front, and thereafter can play the counter attacking game that suits us. The fact that we only need to draw basically means we go in 1-0 up.

We can go and play EXACTLY as we want. By the way, Conte might also want us to pile on pressure from the start - I have no idea - but only needing a draw is absolutely ideal for us.

This is a team who scores at less than a goal a game, and who concede on average two - surely, surely we've got this....right?

Oh God, I've jinxed it haven't I?

I just want us to go flying into this, all out the first 25mins or so, i'm terrified of it turning into one of those attritional games with us becoming increasing desperate and increasingly clueless on how to break them down.

I think its worth the risk of trying to sweep them away from the off, at least or until they get an opener or we get the 2-0 lead we need to try some game management.

Whack whatever amount of caffeine into the lads that's needed to get the highest intensity of any match this season.
