I honestly think we could get 6 or 7 here. Defoe looks sharp and no doubt Lamela / Holtby / Chadli will be the attacking options. That would turn over most prem sides.

I reckon Sandro and Kaboul will get 90 also so even more strength.

:avbdamn:

St. Johnstone beat Rosenborg in Trondheim and if Spurs played Saints I'd expect a cricket score.

I dont think we will see the above team from the guv, but its what I would like to see.
We can and will easily get out of our group with our squad.

5-0.
 
Hi from Tromso!
Reading through this tread and posting some fact about Tromso, the city and the team.

Facts about the city:
- The biggest city i North Norway, 71000 people are living here.
- The city is located 350 km (217mi) north of the polar cicle.
Located north of the polar circle means that in the summer we have the midnight sun from 17 may to 26 july, where the sun isn't under the horizon. And in the Winter the sun isn't above the horizon form 26 november to 21 january, under the polar night.
For more info read about the town on Wikipedia.

Then some info about the team which are playing against Spurs this week.
This season has been shitty, and we are number 13 in the Norwegian League. Due to financial problems we have sold our best players before and during this season. The totalt budget of the club is about 6,9 million pounds.
Achievements:
Norwegian League:
Runners up: 1990 and 2011
Third: 1989, 2008, 2010
Norwegian cup:
Winners: 1986, 1996
Runners up: 2012

In the Europa League we only been in the Group stage once before, in 2005 after beating Galatasaray 2-1 in the play-off. In the Group stage we lost for Rome 1-2, Basel 3-4 and RC Strasbourg 0-2. The only win came against Red Star Belgrade with 3-1.
In 2009 we lost the play-off for Athletic Club of Bilbao by 4-3, in 2012 we lost the play-off for Partizan Belgrade 3-3 (away goal)
This year we entered the first qualifying round, and on Our way to the groupstage we have beaten NK Celje, Inter Baku, Differdange. In the play-off we lost for Besiktas 3-2 (2-1,0-2). But the day after the play off Besiktas was banned from the tournament alongside with Fenerbache.
In 1997 we played Chelsea in the cupwinners cup, beating them 3-2 at home, before losing 1-7 at Stamford Bridge.

Against Tromso, Spurs are huge favorites, and in my mind anything less than a 5 goal loose for Tromso is good. The Return match in Tromso in november, thats another story.

If you are wondering about anything, feel free to ask.
 
But could they do it on a Thursday night in the Artic Circle is the barometer with which to judge all new signings.
