I didn't mean performance form, I meant more for strategy. You're right though, pre-season form means nothing.
Last season we had a ****e preseason, a clever ploy which continued on to a ****e season. Spurs have had some tough opening days recently, that's Liverpool, City and now Newcastle in the past few years isn't it?
ta. I've blocked the first week of last season out. A bit like i did from mid-feb to mid-april. We won the league right?
To be fair, after the first round of fixtures last season, Spurs and Everton both managed to have 0 points and a goal difference of 0.
