Would be great if our team could win it.

You saying you didn't thoroughly enjoy the lovely Leicester fairytale and all that came with it? .....And all the ridicule that came our way because of it? ......Not to mention how all their lot oh so humbly and graciously decided they hated us as a result of it.

Wild.:pocheyes:

Son and Werner can cause issues with their high line.

I'd actually like Bentancur to start this one, reason Villa couldn't get near him is because they play a high line with barely any pressure on the 6, he'd have all the time in the world like he did in the home match to pick out runners.

It's actually a feature of he to get at Villa, Liverpool used it with Trent in the same position and I feel that Bentancur is better suited to picking out those passes than Bissouma.

Maddison is also playing like a deep lying playmaker when we have the ball.

We didn’t have him against Villa last time:

Not against Bentancur playing though because he was ripping them to pieces last time and it also adds pressure on the officials to actually protect our players this time.

It won't make the slightest bit of difference on that front.
 
Really not sure.

Refs in this country are affected by narrative and want to avoid negative headlines. Bentancur injured twice in a season by the same team would look terrible for them.

That won't even be on their radar....... Narratives are created by noise and cunts like Neville or Klopp....... Matty Cash has already ruined two of our players in back to back games; yet that narrative hasn't left a blip outside of the Spurs fanbase.
 
Can't see us winning. Draw or 1 goal loss.
We just don't beat Emery coached teams.

Would love to be wrong though.

That League Cup win at the Emirates with the Dele chip was the only time we've beaten an Emery team in 7 attempts.

Incredible really. Because they were proper shit under him.
 
No need for an extremely hard tackle or numerous ones on Cash to result in red cards or bans. Just absolutely flatten him with fair tackles every chance anyone gets.
On him like a cheap suit all game and he will shit his pants the wee prick.

Dream of seeing Vicario going through him to punch the ball on a corner. Then landing on him.

Even better if Cash is trying this bs backing into the keeper tactic. New tactic for keepers overcoming it, flatten the fvckers and see who is brave enough.
 
Don't think we have won an away game against a top 10 club this season.

Correct.

Wolves away when we were missing Van de Ven, Romero, Udogie, Maddison and Richarlison and Bentancur.

And Brighton away when we were missing Van de Ven, Romero, Maddison, Bissouma and Bentancur

Did draw away at The Emirates, Etihad and Old Trafford though. So not all bad.
