I think we might get our arses handed to us in this fixture. Liverpool are wounded and Coutinho is playing well.
Defensively we'll have to be disciplined if we're to stand a chance.
VormI'd want a more free flowing front four to be honest. I didn't much like Lamela dominantly on the left in the last game so I'd like to see him come in from the right and play a little more central. Janssen and Kane both comfortable on either side of the pitch, both two footed and work extremely hard but for the football purists, his name being at the top of the formation will make them feel a lot happier. All allows for a solid central midfield pairing in Dier and Wanyama.
Walker - Alderweireld - Vertonghen - Rose
Dier - Wanyama
Lamela - Janssen - Alli
Kane
2-1 win.
Janssen and Alli
Agreed. Their defence is somewhat shambolic - but they have looked pretty sharp going forward at times and they'll be proper up for it against us.So will they, their defence looks shit, fucking Milner has suddenly morphed into a PL level LB, do me a favour.
3-1 Spurs.
Always been a decent keeper, I remember when we signed him he was so good ppl were concerned he was lloris replacement which in itself speaks volumes. As a number 2 anything he does wrong will be amplified and focused upon which makes his job even harder imoI'm pretty impressed by Vorm lately; I hope I'm still saying that Saturday.
I totally agree, and know it's totally unfair, but I'm still not filled with confidence when he plays.Always been a decent keeper, I remember when we signed him he was so good ppl were concerned he was lloris replacement which in itself speaks volumes.

But be fair, the only thing that will ever change that is game time, without it any player is a riskI totally agree, and know it's totally unfair, but I'm still not filled with confidence when he plays.
Dreading this and can't wait in equal measure - their arrogance and self entitlement really annoys me and I love nothing more than bringing them a peg or two. Trouble is, you never know which Liverpool will turn up, fingers crossed it's the crappy one. COYS
Hate to admit but at least 5 members of my family support these cunts including my brother and at 3pm this weekend they will all be attending my daughters 2nd birthday party so I really need a win this week, I also remember my daughter being born and at pretty much the same time I had 1 eye on the Mrs and one on use drawing with them, would accept that Saturday even if we are at homeDreading this and can't wait in equal measure - their arrogance and self entitlement really annoys me and I love nothing more than bringing them a peg or two.

He probaly isnt either Mrs P!I totally agree, and know it's totally unfair, but I'm still not filled with confidence when he plays.
