I just hope we come out from start and not wait until we concede to raise game. Should be full throttle from the off.

This has 0-1 thrashingf written all over it, followed by the old boys network praising a tactical masterclass from Brucey

An early goal for us is crucial, get that and it could be a shellacking

I'm gutted about Tanguy, mainly because I can't wait to see him playing with Son. Hopefully, Sonny will thrive off those sneaky through balls and creative passing range.

Feelgood factor around the club. Home game in the bank holiday sunshine. Key players returning and new signings bedding in. Up against a crap team in disarray. Man Utd and Arsenal having lost yesterday. Everything looks in our favour.

You know what that means?

Tottenham 0-1 Newcastle

Can't see anything other than a win for us although it may well be a tough afternoon scraping to a one nil win.
But I do get what some are saying it does have that typically spurs performance waiting to happen, along with poch having one of his off days like playing Kane at centre back and then not changing it until the 90th minute coys.

Its a bit ridiculous that we talk about our team (as the pundits do too) in glowing terms of how we will finish third etc and when it gets to game day everyone hides behind the couch. Why is that?
We sometimes win games as a war of attriction. 80 minutes of the other team having the ball and then we score one or two or 80 of us having the ball and going nowhere and then scoring a goal or two. Its hard to be confident 100%. The fact is that while Poch's stats are pretty good that we do lack sometimes a flow to the goal and on one hand we are supposed to be going more on the front foot and creating the game while a part of me thinks that Pochs main point is keeping the defence tight and making sure the CMs cover. This is game where we should go out there with guns (sorry) firing and taking no prisoners,NDombele or no Ndombele we have a host of forwards that can make things happen give them a chance to do so by playing on the front foot. See it to believe it.

I suspect we will go a goal down, as it seems to be the way. Also the temperature is likely to be an issue and lead to slower play/conservation of energy and fan anger (fanger). Great to see Son back.
+1 for fanger, although I think I prefer 'fananger' as it sounds like some interesting south american fever.
