Tottenham v Arsenal

    Alright, I'm taking a stab in the dark here and posting my first match thread in god knows how long.

    Really is a bold move considering how important this game is.

    Arguably the best time this season to be playing at home to Arsenal. Cech & Koscielny out and they've been on a downward spiral the past few weeks. Easily our best chance to stake a claim to Leicester that we mean business and will fight them for the title.

    It was a pretty poor performance against West Ham but I didn't expect it to be easy. Play with the intensity they had against a Swansea team that went on to beat arsenal 3 days later and I reckon we'll win comfortably. Its all about whether Poch has been able to settle his side down in preparation for the biggest 10 games any of us have witnessed in a Spurs season since the Gary Mabbutt & Gareth Crooks days in the 80's when we could have done it then.

    Dembele and Alli expecting to start who were sorely missed on Wednesday I'd have to back a Spurs win.

    3-1. Its daring but you have to just hope.

    Lloris
    Walker alderwiereld wimmer rose
    Lamela dembele dier eriksen
    Alli
    Kane


    That's a Premier league winning starting 11 in my books.

    Come on you Spurs!

    Heading over in the morning for my first ever NLD. Butterflies already... MASSIVE GAME... COYS!

    Prediction: 2-1 (Kane with the winner) :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    One of the few games I truly get excited about, last seasons game was fúcking amazing. Blitzed, from start to finish.

    Arsenal haven't kicked on, they've stagnated. They'll be kicking themselves with the way the league has panned out. Dominating and looking down, that's how they perceived this season.

    It's a derby, you either perform or go hiding. I'd expect a physical game, non stop attacking, defending me'h.

    Koscielny is a huge loss, top player. West Ham was a blip. Depends on Arsenal's mentality tomorrow, we should be going for the jugular. No matter who plays.

    Not conceding early is key.

    March 2016 - We were expected to win but rosicky scored in the 2nd minute and that was the way it finished. Current form goes out the window and it could go either way.

    This your prediction???:p

    Ha. No, I think we will win.

    We could absolutely smash them but I'll take a one nil win via an o.g. of the arse of Walcott and be delighted.

    I reckon 3-2 or 4-2 to us.

    Biggest NLD in 55 years

    91 semi? when the FA cup meant so much, no one expected us to show up...

    55 years since we won the league

    I'll be at a pub in Brisbane with about 50 Brisbane Spurs fans.

    We usually go to an English pub that has all fans there but got an agreement with a smaller pub to be our own Maye's here. Only Spurs fans allowed. Gonna be mental!!

    just about to jet off, don't think I've ever been more excited/nervous for a game in my life.

    Three points, that's what we want!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,816 ✭✭✭golfball37


    I'm on edge all morning- what a test of our Spursy label today. I really think we'll do it, especially if Dembele plays.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,747 ✭✭✭irishmover


    50 was an underestimate. About 100 spurs fans here in our own bar! Great atmosphere..

    facking lamela constantly giving the ball away. booked already.. chadli on pls poch


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,282 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    We're completely in control, but not had many really good chances. We need to get something out of this possession, and the longer it goes on the more I'll worry they'll grab the lead.

    Lamella has had a good game, I fear he'll be served his walking papers.

    And exactly that happens! :mad:

    We're not creating a thing. Really need half time to come quick. I wonder have we been sussed out?

    For all Spurs control of the ball no real chances.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,133 ✭✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    We just need one goal and these guys will crumble. COYS


  • Moderators, Computer Games Moderators Posts: 23,282 Mod ✭✭✭✭Kiith


    Simply not good enough. Possession is useless if we don't create any chances. The amount of crosses that haven't beaten the first man I'd absolutely insane.

    Arsenal will just sit back and counter now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,406 ✭✭✭DyldeBrill


    I think Lamela has been wasteful, not a great half from him.

    We're struggling to create clear cut chances,a lot of booting the ball up field aimlessly. Expect to see Son come on for Lamela at some stage in the second half. Danny Rose has been brilliant imo. He's so dangerous attacking up the left, we need to see more of that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,927 ✭✭✭Sugarlumps


    Ospina made a cracking save. Wellbeck looks dangerous.

    Dembele hasn't ventured forward much, needs to be more adventurous.

    Unbelievable save in fairness to Ospina!

    Also think we need to make more of our set pieces. All well and good scoring the odd free kick but today its been so wasteful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,133 ✭✭✭✭2nd Row Donkey


    We were in the same position in the same game last year and we turned it around. Just need to keep plugging away.

    Found ourselves in good positions, gotta produce the goods when given those opportunities.

    Gotta say Wellbeck is giving me the jitters today. Need to come out of the traps quickly.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,019 ✭✭✭davycc


    we were did fcuk all with all the posession sand shots/crosses we had..
    then we folded as soon as they scored and only some sh1te control by wellbeck sved us we should be 3down in the 5mins between ramseys goal and half time

    What? Lamela has had a great game so far...

    Big test for the team now. Pull ahead and cement our position as title challengers, or go back to looking over our shoulders at the teams below us and fighting for CL football.

    Genuinely get nervous every time he gets the ball.

    Hope we pull it out of the bag!

    Simply don't agree.

    Has given the ball away far too easily.

    Watching a totally different game to me. My dad even called me to say lamela has been incredible and he doesn't like him!
