Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports
Speak for yourself... I'll take a 7am kick-off in Sydney when I can get it!
Done.CanAuscock change the title to the correct time and date please.
I only used the previous time and date because I thought that us Aussies were the only supporters left.
Everyone else seems to have thrown in the towel for this season.
We have a lot more stamina down here.
maybe i think being upside down all the time means blood is rushing to our head and causes us to have brain damage
Interesting line-up.
Austin, Udogie, Reguilon, Olusesi, Hardy, Johnson, Werner, Son, Lankshear
With Udoggie getting subbed last game, we don't have a lot of choices at LB.
Hopefully, Spence isn't injured.
I’ll be in Mallorca for this one
My guess:
Honestly, I'd keep Bergvall in the side but if Ange wanted to protect him a bit from this game I could understand it. United will be looking to target people when it comes to officials and winning cheap cards and fouls, especially after the Bruno red got overturned. They will be looking to pressure that into a few payback whistles and young kids is who they would go after. But if Biss gets an early yellow, I'd have no fear bringing Bergvall in.
I think we see another Maddison masterclass in this one. He loves a battle against the other big-name creative CMs in the prem and with the darts on he will be in a good mood the whole Christmas period.

The Ange era started with somewhat mixed feelings. A league cup is exactly the type of confidence boost this side needs
Under Amorim they seem to be putting more emphasis on having possession. Around 70 % in couple of matches already, and they even went almost equal with two top teams on the road. Considering the abundance of pacy frontline players we have, it might make sense to go with a lower block, give up the possession and try to hit them on the counter.Going gung-ho with a back 4 featuring prospects, backups, and/or players playing out of position is not something to look forward to.
Purely hypothetical of course, as Ange would never compromise. But IMO it would make total sense if he actually did.

Can actually watch this game on TV.
Although this sounds positive it tends to mean we lose.
Sorry in advance.

With Son being rested for the second half yesterday, I think he will start against United.
I’m expecting Son to start but I’m not sure what Johnson did yesterday to justify a start against United.
He was rested and Son was too with the early sub
Completely agree, was toss. Kulu wasn’t great tbh either. Think BJ is an asset vs a side like Utd tbh but I would bench him
We are indeed a bunch of crazy foos.
