Gwladys sorted.

A real chance to put a clear distance between us, Woolwich and Yanited.

No news of whether Toby, Jan and Harry passed fit today or not?

Tough enough game but some need to remember how strong our home record is.

I'm going for 3-1.

 

[ajspurs]

Really hope it's a case of us bringing them back down to Earth a bit. Hopefully will see a better game from Alli as he's looked in his shell a little bit the last couple of games.

I think we'll win, by hook or by crook.

 

[ajspurs]

In their last 4 away games they've drawn 0-0 against Middlesborough, drawn 1-1 to Stoke, beat Crystal Palace 1-0 and drawn 2-2 to Hull. Not the greatest away record there. I haven't really watched much of Everton but they seem to be much more of a force at home than away.

 

[Cruyff]

Probability of home win: 63%

No morning match day tweet from Toby like he normally does.. so I'm saying he's out

 

[doctor stefan Freud]

Good point. Also Wanyama was imperious in that match and now thankfully he's in our team!

I still think Koeman is quite tactically astute and knows how to set up against us. Hope I'm wrong. Other teams have tried and failed to overcome our press, so hopefully that continues tomorrow.

I'm sure he'll play with wide forwards to stretch our back 3, meaning our fullbacks will have to drop deeper, allowing theirs to either bomb forward or mark Eriksen and Alli. If that happens their extra man in the middle could cause problems. Davies could be in for a busy day though Poch might not fancy 3 at the back if Toby is out. We might revert to a 4141 with Son out wide to pin their fb down

Might still be touch and go to be fair. He night not even know until 11/11:30.

Mods please delet if this is inappropriate.

A friend of mine has recently started a market stall, which will be in Tottenham today, selling the best jacket potatos, great on a cold day. The markets on the left as you walk down from seven sisters if any one is interested. See the pic for a cheeky discount.

I've just been looking at the upcoming fixtures for all the teams in the top 7 (I'll include Everton as I think at the very least they'll take some points off our rivals) and we've got the "easiest" run-in until mid-April by far:

Man City vs. Liverpool (March 19th)
Liverpool vs. Everton (April 1st)
Arsenal vs. Man City (April 2nd)
Man United vs. Everton (April 4th)
Chelsea vs. Man City (April 5th)
Man United vs. Chelsea (April 16th)

During that period we've got:

Everton (H)
Southampton (H)
Burnley (A)
Swansea (A)
Watford (H)
Bournemouth (H)

It's so essential we pick up as many points as possible during this period, we could feasibly put ourselves into a position of only needing to beat Arsenal on April 30th to guarantee finishing above them.
