I am absolutely convinced we are going to lose. 

Everything is in our favour. Guaranteed we lose. 

I have this same feeling Taylor in charge we are on good run and the Weather is extremely British today so yeah we lose.

Anthony Taylor AGAIN 

So weird to say that even if we lose today, we are still ahead of City. It's been a while since we could say that.

Sanchez

Caicedo  Badishile. Colwill. Cucurella

Enzo. Lavia.

Neto. Palmer. Sancho.

Jackson

Jorgenson should be starting but Maresca's going to start his lover. I imagine Badiashile probably starts as he didn't in the week. Think the rest of the team picks itself with the rotation. 

If we can win these next two games, it would be a hell of a statement.

Spurs need a reaction, and have something to prove to their fans. That, the weather, away and Taylor all stack against Chelsea. 

But enough about them. We’re improving massively as a club. Remain focused and we can absolutely get a result today. Must take our chances - score 3 and we win. 

Tonight I am predicting that  everyone living to the left of me will be deep in sorrow, although the days I look forward the most, are the days when everyone that lives to the right of me is deep in sorrow. I live exactly half way between White Hart Lane, and The Emirates.

it's gonna be a tough test for us, in the same way that it is tough playing in the Carabao Cup on a stormy mid winter night in Sc**thorpe. Do these young lads have the character as well as the skill? I am still going for 1-4, but I'll take offers on other winning combinations..............let's get it on already!!   PS. Gotta laugh at the online censor, it keeps removing two letters from the name of that town. I can't imagine what it is thinking 🙂

If the pitch is wet and soggy then the playing out from the back will be fun to watch.

Anything could happen in this game, nobody can be sure which version of Spurs and which version of Chelsea will turn up. I've a feeling there could be a few goals though.

Agreed. Spurs have only beaten City away in their last 6, losing to Ipswich in that process. They show up for big games, and Taylor this is ideal for him, away match he can twist the knife in with VAR instructed to interfere less.

Would not surprise me in the least if Taylor sends Jackson off today, he'll get a card for a stupid foul and then his 2nd for gobbing off at Taylor.   Colwill will also have to watch himself given his tendency to make the odd stupid challenge...

Indeed it would, but you just know we are likely to drop points in both of these games, a hurting depleted Spurs side will want to try and right the ship, Brentford will be a tough test but they have a poor away record.  I just hope the recent success doesn't go to the heads of our young squad and they get complacent.

Pretty much as expected and a team that should be very good in transition. 

That c**t Romero is back so I expect a red for them.

Amazing how they get all their players back for this and their 12th man Taylor

Just f**king Taylor is the problem.

Van de Ven is dangerous, keep him down the field and we will be ok

Hard to know which Spurs team will turn up 

Van de Ven wasn't supposed to be back for another few weeks was he? Dangerous to rush him back after a hamstring injury.

So "injury  crisis" Spurs have an even stronger side out than I predicted, their entire first choice outfield 10 available.

Whereas we are missing half our first choice defence. Nice false narrative spun by the media and them.

That was probably just BS Spurs fed to the media.

So Caicedo playing right back but in midfield.  A bit worried there’s going to a lot of room for Son down their left

Well balls, Arsenal just scored an 88th minute winner at Fulham having been behind.

It would be lovely if Fulham can fluke a goal now wouldn’t it?

Over Fulham 1-1 Arsenal 

Ha Leicester scored 2 goals in last 4 mins, 2-2 against Brighton
