All depends on how Ayew/Montero play. Siggy has been low on form but he could kick it up a notch against his old club. Real danger is Ayew and montero though. Montero's been on the bench recently, hope they stick with that and don't play both of them from the off.
To be honest, not overly worried about Montero - he's exactly the sort of straight up and down pacey player that Kyle is quiet comfortable with. As long as he can match someone for pace he's not ruffled. It's the clever wide players, who come off the lines, with good movement, he struggles with.

I'm scared Dier and/or Alli will get their 5th yellow cards tomorrow, meaning they will miss the Liverpool game. Ideally, they would get them against Liverpool/Bournemouth (or not at all, but I doubt that will happen), so they miss the Bournemouth/Villa game. Knowing our luck, both will get the yellow cards against Villa, so they miss the Arsenal game.

We need a win. It would be great for our boys to go off to internationals on a high.
Give it your all.

Aguera had his today. Kane will get his against Swansea. A resurgence that is. We are going to win. Felt the same way before both the Crystal Palace and Man City games. COYS!

As usual I'll be asleep and watch the recording in the morning. We should all though be looking at a win

Palace, Leicester, WetSpam all 3 have had brilliant start to their season....But if we win tomorrow, we go above them. If results go our way, we could go into the international break in 3rd & pull away from mid table clubs.
We got to take this chance. COYS

we really need to get to the international break so we can start getting some lads back, i wouldnt mind alli picking up his 5th yellow as im just as confident with mason or bentaleb but dier needs to try to get through the game without one.

This would be great to go into the international break sitting third but as is with spurs when the pressure is on we struggle to deliver.

The lack of Son playing can't be underestimated. He and Lamela have great engines and with Kane too, there is lots of pressure and pressing there. Its going to be needed as we can't let Swansea dictate the ball.

Yep. The chance to go 3rd should be motivation enough for us to go balls out for the win.

1-3 goal rush.

Lamela with 2, and Kane with the other.

I see us struggling today, played a near full strength team vs Monaco. Son is a big miss as he has the pace and energy that rubs off on others. Swansea are decent and I would take a draw

Got to win. Given how badly Chelsea are doing at the moment, it would be brilliant to get 7 points in front of them. There may well be a better chance of a CL place this season than we thought.

Would be lovely to get top four but i think we need another year as our squad isnt strong enough yet to compete in it.
But we certainly owe Chelsea one for keeping us out of it a few seasons back when the won it.

Key to this game is keeping Shelvey quiet. Much of Swansea play goes through him, he's very good at spraying telling passes around. He has developed enormously since leaving Liverpool, another mistake by Rogers in letting him go !!

Everything is in place for this to be a Spursy afternoon,
1) Chance to get in top 4
2) Its before an international break and our record before and after is shit
3) They have never beaten us in the Prem
4) After a tough Europa game
5) A couple of key injuries Son in particular
6) A number of players looked completely knackered on Thursday, Kane especially.
7) our chance to jump a few places under the radar while all the focus is on the other games.

So 2-1 to the bloody Welsh
