I'm never going to forgive Defoe for missing that - summed up his career in one move.
If only we had someone on our team who was good at winding the opposition players up...Young men have big egos. I can envisage a brawl should it get dirty this time. Man shitty are falling apart so I expect them to be frustrated very quickly due to not seeing much of the ball.
daft comment, surprised at youI'm never going to forgive Defoe for missing that - summed up his career in one move.
agreedLlorisHas to be this line up for me. Walker misses out due to the fact that Trippier shouldn't be dropped after his latest performance, even for rotation, he's more than capable to keep line in that back four as well as cause problems going forward. Every one else picks themselves.
Trippier - Alderweireld - Wimmer - Rose
Dier - Dembele
Lamela - Alli - Eriksen
Kane
Thought he was a bit nervous against Norwich, but flawless against Watford reallyWimmer has looked good so far, but has certainly had a few questionable decisions in the past two matches. Against teams like Norwich and Watford those little mistakes are recoverable. With City they will capitalize on every single error that is made. Luckily, City has a defense that leaks like a sieve if really pressed. Given that we're the form team and the one that has everything to play for, I think that it will give us the backbone needed to see this one out, but I think it's going to be really close. 3-2 Spurs.
If we're going on performances; Davies should get the nod over Rose. I thought that he had an excellent game; he's a far better crosser of the ball too.LlorisHas to be this line up for me.

Lets not kid ourselves, they are still a dangerous squad with Aguero fit.
But if we play with our normal speed and tenacity those lethargic primadonnas won't know what hit them.
COYS!
we haven't got a great record either. we pretty much beat teams in the bottom half & draw with teams in the top half.City haven't beaten a team in the top 6 this year.
Have to wonder if they really care now they know Pep's coming in. Spurs 2-0, Leicester hopefully draw with the scum who lose at Bournemouth today please.
