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.
Referee: Andre Marriner. Assistants: Simon Long, Richard West. Fourth official: Tim Robinson. VAR: Paul Tierney. Assistant VAR: Natalie Aspinall.
I like to imagine Tom gets to the end of his working hours and a fourth official appears holding up a board telling him how many extra minutes he still needs to make up.
This season has crept up on me. Where did the summer go!! Going for a 0/0 draw...not sure if that makes me optimistic or pessimistic
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! 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
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.
