1. Tottenham to finish 3rd.
2. Erik Lamela to score over 10 goals this season.
3. Kane to score 30 goals next season.
4. Alli to get a surprise (not to me) call up to the England's Euro 2016 squad.
5. Trippier to become our established right back.

1. Spurs will disappoint most fans by not signing the midfielder we have lacked since Modric; Alli will shock the prem with his skill at his age, showing a bright future

2. Lamela will be EPL top 10 for goals and top 5 for assists. Value will double and will be world class next season.

3. Pritchard will be last seasons Harry Kane, rise like a Phoenix come November, and be the next expensive English talent. 15 goal season.

4. Eriksen will leave for 20m-30m after he shows no real fit into the system; will be sold to Madrid/Barca/Juventus/AC/Inter/Atletico/Dortmund/Bayern

5. Spurs will finish 5/6 due to silly losses to Villa, Watford, Newcastle, Bournemouth; win EL; FA cup final appearance; Arsenal (4 pts), Man U (3 pts), Chelsea (1 pt), Man City (0 pts), Liverpool (4 pts), Southampton (6 pts)

1. This will be our main 1st eleven defense before too long: Trippier Toby Wimmer Rose

2. Pritchard will win the battle with Eriksen for the starting spot

3. If Soldado stays he gets double figures (will amend this to somethign else if he goes)

4. Alli will end up getting player of the season

5. Toby will get best passing accuracy over the season

Might change one or two of these before the season starts.

Ok this is clearly cheating, you've put thought into it rather than just fire off the first 5 obscure ideas which popped into your head!

Yedlin to be first choice RW?

Simple bit of fun. Make 5 Spurs related predictions for the new season.

1. Trippier will be starting right back from the first game
2. Kane will score 40+ goals in all competitions
3. Winks will get an England call up this season
4. Chadli will not be in our top 5 scorers this year
5. Vertonghen will not be a starter by the end of the season and will leave next summer

Bonus: Mullers will declare his love for Daniel Levy


Agree with you on most, but my first prediction is we won't get top 4 if we persist in sideways and backward passing once we 're with 35 yards of our opponents' goal like we did most of the time last night.

Sideways and backwards passing can have its uses if done properly. The problem is we just do it because of lack of other ideas. The kids looked way more inventive and I was impressed by the midfield of Winks, Alli and Carroll but we need some better movement and pace higher up the pitch if we want to be able to play more incisive football.

Good thread.

1. We will make 2 signings before window closes - one will under 23, one will cost over £15m.

2. We will concede fewer goals this season than last.

3. We will be more enjoyable to watch this season than last.

4. We won't make top 4 this season.

5. We will get more points NEXT season than we do this.

1) We'll be boring
2) We'll struggle to break "lesser" teams down.
3) Poch gone by Christmas
4) Heavy speculation linking us with Pulis/Hughes/Pardew
5) Lamela still bang average.

1 - Poch gone by Christmas
2 - Kane will struggle - 2nd season syndrome as managers / defenders work him out.
3 - We'll finish 7th in the league
4 - We'll go out of Europe in the 1st KO stage
5 - Lamela will continue to be bang average, he'll move back to Italy on loan in January and then score more goals in Serie A in half a season than he did for 2 1/2 seasons with us.

Dier to become the new random scapegoat
Chadli to score 6 or more winning goals and still be called a ****
Deli Ali to be tipped in the press as a future England Captain whilst getting his first cap.
Alderweld (SP? - whatever) to score more own goals than goals for us
Fazio to finish the season as first choice.

1) Alli and Pritchard make the step up to Premier League football with ease and are both in contention for a place in the Euro 2016 squad.

2) We concede less goals and score more, boosting our end of season goal difference to between +15 and +20

3) We beat Liverpool in October which plays a hand in Rodgers getting sacked soon after

4) Andros Townsend helps advance mankind by waking up the Philae comet lander with a well placed shot, knocking it into direct sunlight. The research that we're able to gather will eventually allow humans to colonise distant planets where in thousands of years time they will worship Townsend as the one true God.

5) We reach the semi finals of the Europa League but get knocked out by a Champions League drop out in bizarre circumstances which everyone agrees could only happen to Tottenham.

Point 5, go out to an offside goal from Schneiderlin
