For all their business this summer, it will be Kane and Son that run rings around us as per usual (yes I know we won there last season). Difficult to see anything other than a comfortable Spurs win by 2/3/4 goals. But meh, this game will have little meaning on our season as a whole.

It'll have quite a lot of meaning on mine, as I live in North London and want to be able to at least hold my head up.

At least we won’t be trying that high defensive line that gifted Son all those goals

Maybe someone will try marking Kane in the area as well
Yeah, SS, going into a game with a defensive strategy; let's hope we have moved on from last season and actually have one this time around! <laugh>

Seriously, it will be interesting to see if we play 3 at the back, or have Lavia sitting in front of a back four.

Wr will be setting up as back 3., you don't spend all pre season playing it, to revert back to a back 4.

Lavia will also play too!, IMO
 
Not ironic, just coincidental

Sorry, I’m OCD about irony :p
I used the word ironically correctly, because after being completely terrified by almost being crushed against a barrier, I didn’t go to a match again for 25 years. The irony is that safe standing is being introduced at (almost) the same ground. Don’t get me wrong, I am all for safe standing by the way.

Ah well that’s different and clearly a bit ironic
