Match Palace v Spurs - 27th Oct - 8PM

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Anyone else get the feeling this will be the biggest test of the season ? Proper Old School football stadium, Friday night , under the lights , the place will be absolutely rocking - does it work in our favour though as surely Palace wont be able to just sit back and park the bus?

They are all a test. Look at Luton. We should flatten them really, but then Biss goes off. If we play as we can, with 11 players, then we can and will beat Palace. They have only won one of their last 5.

The one thing that has started to slightly worry me is we are are maybe not converting enough chances into goals. I have faith Gluey can resolve however. We are missing Perisic a bit for the final ball at least as an option.

You are absolutely right!

It will be a very difficult game because I will probably still be suffering from the after-effects of Eintracht's ECL game and from my wife's announcements... - but that's another story!


COYS!
 
I'm hoping Anges comments to the press leave an impression on the team, that we can't take anyone for granted and can't take our foot off the pedal even for one half. If we give Palace the respect they merit we will win comfortably, if we go 1-0 up and start coasting like the Spurs of yesteryear it would be very worrying.
 
Yea and you forgot how we lost in the league cup. Ange doesn't make the same mistake twice.
Oh come on, he made so many changes it was almost a legends team.
I'm talking putting in a £50M player for Kulu - resting Biss for PEH, who was excellent on monday and giving the wunderkind a start, by moving Sonny to a slot he's played hundreds of times
Not giving the Women's team a run out
