Match ***Bournemouth v Spurs - 8.15pm Thurs 5th December (Amazon Prime)***

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Lets hope Romero is back for this one. Solanke should be back too I'm hearing. Son needs a rest, and would be nice to have him as an impact sub. I'd be willie to give Sarr a rest here too as he will be a key player Vs Chelsea. For me I'd go with the below:

Vicario
Spence Romero Dragusin Udogie
Kulusevski Bissouma Maddison
Johnson Solanke Werner

I think we need to try Maddison/Kulusevski together again. It worked well for a few games. Sarr can come on at half time if its not working. We need to give Spence a game here to keep the squad fresh. If Romero is back then Davies gets the rest here and comes in for Drausin against Chelsea.
Is that Vicario on crutches in goal?
 
Don't get to too many games nowadays but attended the Fulham game and going to this one . In the home end though !

Done the same for the previous two seasons and they went very well . Unless we get a few more players back from injury , can't say I feel too confident about this one .

Got to try and stay positive but dread the thought of sitting amongst them fuckers if the team decide to put in another shit performance .

That said you'd like to think there will be a response after Sundays result . If not and my evening turns into a horror show I will probably have to give the forum a miss for a couple of days to get over the trauma

Wish me luck. COYS
 
Had to get the Amazon trial so I can watch this. Cancelling before the end of my trial so Jeff doesn't get any more of my money.

Seems like no-one had started this so here we go.

Time: 8.15pm (boo) on Thurs 5th December
Venue: Vitality Stadium (Cap: 11,307)

We go into this game in 7th place but just 2pts ahead of 13th placed Bournemouth.

Some facts about Bournemouth:
  1. JRR Tolkien lived in Bournemouth as a child. This is how AFC Bournemouth got their nickname, 'The Hairy Footed Midget Twats'.
  2. Bournemouth is one of the sunniest places in the UK, sometimes reaching peaks of 15C in the summer months.
  3. It is where Marconi conducted his experiments leading to the invention of the portable radio. It is said that he wouldn't have bothered if he'd known about Jason Cundy in advance.
  4. Bournemouth neighbours the Jurassic Coast, a nature reserve known for it's friendly Velociraptors.
Team News:
  • Out: Vicario, Ven De Ven, Richarlison, Odobert, Bentancur (S)
  • Wait and see: Solanke, Gray, Romero, Moore (unlikely)
COME ON YOU SPURS.

I fear your facts on bornmuff are way more amusing than what we’re going to see on the pitch :levyeyes:
 
About to type some stuff about the game then realised I just don't give enough of a shit about the PL to do it.

Have a gif instead

Can you do this for every game, please? 😂
 
New poster here, season ticket holder during the Sugar years but even that felt more fun than this probably because we had little expectations. I've just become totally apathetic towards Ange and Spurs at the moment. Seeing Reguilón on the bench for the Fulham game was the final straw - I've got more chance of stepping onto the pitch than he has. We will struggle to get anything Thursday night. The players look out on their feet and sloppiness is creeping in. Ange keeps flogging the same players and I can actually see signs from one or two players that they are done with whatever Angeball is. Levy will only do something if home games become toxic towards him. Anyway, back five picks itself although I would play Spence instead of Porro. Midfield should be Biss, Sarr, Kulu and front three of Werner, Solanke and Johnson.
 
It’s mad that we’re 7th, they’re 13th and if they win they go above us.

Yes I know we don’t exactly switch places, but it does show that with a few key results this week our league position can be heavily altered (either way).
