Quietly optimistic about this game.

Quietly optimistic about this game.

Me too, like I was before all the previous games.
Match the effort of the last game and improve the concentration and we might be able to get something. One good performance and result could still transform our season. But time is definitely running out ! Could this be the game ?

Sian on Var duty, always liked her, she might help us.

Do we really want to win this game?

The clash of the beard, dress, mascara, lippy and no doubt high heels could be too much. Mind you funny lot over there in France......

Under Poch, Spurs always felt like one of those teams we didn't do well against. Even when they had nine men we only scored at the last possible moment. I think Jose's Spurs are a different animal and that might just help us in this fixture.

Commitment and tactical awareness like the first 30 minutes of the last match but for the whole 90 and we might pull off an upset.

Spurs play tonight at 2000.....a very short break until 1800 on Thursday...you would logically think that could be our advantage...in normal circumstances.
They have almost zero chance of catching Manu for a top 7 finish....so its probably about a training or rebuilding exercise for them..many changes...but that's on paper..not grass !

Like Newcastle had a short break, and look what happen there............

 

[Ivyhouse]

Be nice to have a hand in Jose’s departure, AGAIN !

Oh christ! I can't keep doing this to myself.

what is this boards consensus on how many points we need to stay up given how bad the bottom clubs have done since the start up? I would like to think 6 points, and if I was going to be optimistic I think we could get 7 - Spurs is one where we might get a point, 2 wins out of Leicester, Southampton or Everton and who knows

“ Doctor Tottenham “ will be coming to us on Thursday to administer a restorative three points according to my Spurs ST holder mate at work .
Let’s hope so ...

They could play at 1200 Thursday lunchtime and still turn us over

 

[tedisking]

If they didn't turn up we'd still lose

 

[horndean_exile]

Seem to save our better performances for away games so no confidence we will get anything against Spurs.

Is this from Eddie’s team talk using reverse psychology ?

 

[Johnny Comelately]

If Spurs attack like Man U did I think we'll win or at the very least get a draw.

Incidentally, are all these 6 o clock kick offs because our youngsters have to be in bed by 8?

 

[SteveJonesLegend]

If Watford turn Norwich over tomorrow, our upcoming games could be all but irrelevant anyhow... 4 points ahead and better GD...

it's already mission impossible...
