Coys. Just keep going about our business and see what happens. Will be tough game but like Burnley think we'll eventually overpower them

 

[Dougal]

Good test for how our boys cope with pressure. This is a big taste of it and we would have to have come on so much from last season to get a win here. I can't call it.

 

[hughy]

They've conceded exactly 3 times as many PL goals as us this season - at an average of over 2 per game. If we score a couple early we'll walk this, as I can't see them getting too many chances.

 

[Kiedis]

Middlesbrough kept them out pretty comfortably. As other posters have mentioned, Gylfis set pieces will be their biggest threat. They let in goals like there's no tomorrow, so if we play at a decent level, they will crumble. Score first and it should be job done.

 

[davidmatzdorf]

Their defensive record has improved a great deal since Clement took over. Most of the 4 and 5 goal beatings were earlier in the season.

I wrote after we played them that their defending had been a bit weird, as none of the individual defenders looked especially bad, but they nevertheless left holes everywhere when we attacked. It was an organisational problem and a matter of getting slightly incompatible players to form a unit, not individual incompetence. Clement has them playing in a more disciplined style now.

Llorente missed their last match. I don't know if he'll be playing tonight,. He's a handful.

If Llorente is out I don't think they'll cause us much trouble at all.

 

[Everlasting Seconds]

Holy fudge I'm excited for this evening.

 

[Cornpattbuck]

Come on Tottenham, let's do this.

You can set this comment on repeat for the rest of the season. 'This is a crucial match'.

Man U have donated a couple of points to our lead. Man City, Chelsea or both will donate a few points our way as well, this is a great chance to put a gap into the table.... a gap I think we may need in May looking at the fixtures we have.

 

[JollyHappy]

Be interesting to see our subs bench especially if Wanayama is out. Even with Nkodu and Onomah we are still short of at least one player and hardly any attacking options. Time for Edwards?

 

[archiewasking]

Same team as Saturday for me. Maybe squeeze Son in somewhere to support VJ. Don't know where though.

 

[stevenurse]

Since Clement has arrived he's got them more organised and hard to beat. I don't think this game will be as easy as it would have been if Brad Bobley still been in charge.

Llorente being out would be a real touch

Pretty sure it's 9 wins and 2 draws.

Tremendous record.

 

[Rogmeister]

Swansea try and play. That usually suits us.

Every game now is a cup final. Excited but scared!

It's going to be a very tough match tonight, but a crucial win if we manage it as it will keep pressure on Chelsea.

Really? I'm crapping myself worrying.

Tremendous record.

It counts for nothing if we don't win.
