Hope this goes through, early kick off is the best time to play them. I remember in the 16/17 season this game was played early and it was the deadest NLD atmosphere I had ever seen.
Woolwich will set up to dominate the game which should play in our hands. We can just sit back and try to hit them on the break, worked for united.
I actually dont think we should start with a 3 man midfield, I doubt Conte has drilled it into the team that much at this point. At the moment its a good plan B that will cause teams to think twice when playing us.
Woolwich are a good team, there no point denying it or underestimating them. However, I think we can escape with a draw. Going for a 1-1.

would go with same lineup as today but switch donkey sanchez for romero. son to come on for last half hour and bag a brace!
Son deserves a start, rather Richarlison on the bench then come on.
We will win this, perfect matchup for us, I usually feel sick at the thought of this game and they may have many shots & more possession but it will be quite comfortable
Only if we start with a midfield 3

I like the idea of having a midfield 3. I watched the United game and they are playing well. We might get overrun in midfield if we only have the two. We can go back to Kane playing a 10 and Son stretching the game
Forster, Emerson, Sessegnon, Tanganga, Sanchez, Davies, Skipp, Moura, Richarlison
This will be an interesting game. This season they seem to always start very well and we start slowly. So the fear is they produce the first half they did last season and we don’t wake up till the second half and its a 1230 KO. I like Bissouma in a 3 as well. Looks great for this game.
Lloris
Romero Dier Davies
Royal Bentancur Bissouma Hojberg Perisic
Kane
Son
Richie can start from the bench for this one.
We need to shore up that midfield..... It's no surprise that they're going to come at us from the off, so we should be ready.
Would be lovely if we were the ones to start on the from foot..... Silence the already pretty silent crowd.
Whoever wins this one will go top (for at least 24 hours)......... So it's a nailed on draw.
Loss is unthinkable.
Really don't mind winning or drawing ugly - just do not lose at any cost.

If Doherty comes through the international games ok, I'd like him to get a start.

Be interesting to see if they try and use the strikes to do a runner again. Much as it is shit for us when they keep dodging us, last season it fired us up good and proper.
I’m actually hoping they do try to postpone it as a) it further condemns them to being cowards and b) we’ll give them a good tonking in the rescheduled match.

I’m worried about this game. We aren’t playing great football yet.
id like to see Kulu drop into the midfield 3 as an AM. Doubt it will happen though.

Then theyll go on about having more shots and possession so that means winning the game
Prediction
Goons 1 - 4 Spurs

Obviously going to be a toughie but for them as well its a toughie with defeat unthinkable. The home team in this fixture tends not to lose and winning there only once we need to buck the trend. We should be in good spirits after the Sonny show yesterday though this will be huge step up wonder if as it looked for a while yesterday we might hang on for a narrow win what the mood would be .
