So that therefore guarantees a win for us, I dont feel so bad now....:cautious:
Course it doesn't...but anyone would think we're playing 1970s Brazil tomorrow with some of the predictions going on.
There's a reason they're 15th in the league, and it's because they're largely turd.

They are shite, but they always up their game against us, they won't play like they're 15th in the league tomorrow.

They’ll bring their A game, as they should for a London Derby.

As usual though, we’ll probably start like we’re on holiday. Hopefully we kick in to life early in the game though

Need Spurs of last season to win this.

Tough game as they're improved and we've been In cruise mode for most of this season.

Hoping kane brings his England form into this.

1-1 I reckon.

yep, happy with a point today, and of course from City. Two defeats more than possible though. So we need to battle hard today. They'll have to come at us, hopefully we can counter well, a la England...

I won't be.

The competition for the top-4 is the fiercest it's ever been. In my opinion, whichever two top-6 sides drop the most points against teams outside of the top-6, will finish in the Europa League places.

So in this game, even though it'll be difficult, it's crucial we get 3pts.

Chelsea and Man Utd have dropped points against the Spammers at home already, so that gives us a chance to steal a march on them today.

I see we are the team they have won the most against in the premier league era. I really didn’t realise we had such a bad record against them. I suppose it’s their irrelevance to me.

Agreed but you do know what happens when spurs are under pressure to put themselves in a good position and or the driving seat.... over to the team then.

from our point of view competition got tougher because we didn't strengthen in the summer whereas others did. Still not sure the Goon and Utd sides are that fiercely competitive.

I'd be happy with 3 at home and 1 away v this lot.

Having lived in NE London and Essex for a long time though it's crucial we don't lose.

I'm sticking my scrawny neck out and forecasting a red card for a West Ham player.

Just a feeling, they've had 22 yellows to date compared to our 12.

True enough, as it's still early in the season.

Utd and Arsenal are dangerous though; the former has an excellent squad that Mourinho is getting about 75% performance out of and the latter is doing much better than I (or anyone) thought they would. I think they've won around 9 games on the trot!!

We have to be careful not to lower our expectations just because it softens the blow of failure. We're in with the big-boys now so as Poch says, we have to be brave :mad:
