A bit scary that considering the amount of goals they scored in the international break.
I feel like that’s his prediction for all of our games.
As long as we dont concede in the 1st 20 mins i think we will have a great chance, man city need this more than us tho

OK..... Nerves have started to kick in now.
It's vital we last out the first 20 minutes without conceding. So many times we've faced a big game and then from the first 10 minutes we're on the back foot and the game plan goes out the window.
A nice 2 nil win would do me nicely.
The nerves for Burnley, West Brom and Brighton were off the scale so I can't imagine this will be a nice sedate affair.

I’m more worried about conceding in the final 10 minutes then the first!
First minute city goal alert.
Our hardest game and biggest test to date.
They have some certainty now re: Guardiola and are still a team with bags of talent.
I think it will be a cagey affair.

I think in some ways we’ll play better against attacking teams like Man C, we seem to struggle the most against teams that sit back.
We blitzed SH and Man U, and I don’t see Man C sitting back.

No idea.
Agree with the theory - but City are far better than those teams, so might be able to dominate the game more.
Hopefully they will play a back four with Walker doing his normal thing of roaming out of position, our tactic of Kane dropping and Son's diagonal run hasn't worked as well against teams playing three centre backs.
How do the beeb pay this cunt still? As for the bearded cunt with him this week...
"We know the kind of form Harry Kane is in at the moment for Spurs but City are looking a lot more solid defensively, and they will have a fit Gabriel Jesus to lead their attack.
It is going to be close, but I would go with Pep Guardiola to get one over Jose Mourinho."
Lawro's prediction: 1-2
Adam's prediction: I've gone for City here because they have got so much class but this could go either way. Spurs have got a system that works. 1-2
HOW FUCKING INSIGHTFUL!

End of the Spurs game. :mong:
Mark Lawrenson's prediction theory for beginners...
x is a big club but y are bigger and richer, so I'm going for a 1-2 win for y
x is a big club while y are standard mid-table rubbish, so I'm going for a 2-1 win for x (amend to 2-0 where y = relegation threatened dross)
x and y are both big/shit clubs so I'm going for a 1-1 draw
Where x = Liverpool, I'm going for a 2-0 win for x where y = mid-table rubbish and a 1-0 win where y = big club

Son always terrorises this lot. With him pulling the strings and a incredibly in form Harry giving their defence a torrid time, plus a potential of Bale starting to gain his fitness, I see no reason why we can’t beat these shit cunts. It’s our defence I still worry about. Aguero isn’t the player he was thankfully and has started to decline and Sterling almost certainly unfit (injured) so we got a great chance here.
