Match Man Utd Vs Tottenham, Sunday 4th Oct - 4.30pm.

Latest Spurs videos from Sky Sports

Would be huge, especially when looking at the next lot of fixtures.

Everton have Liverpool..
Woolwich have Man City and Man Utd coming up..
Man Utd have Chelsea coming up..

Whereas we've got West Ham and Burnley and even Brighton - all games you'd expect a confident and firing Tottenham to win.
...and after Brighton, WBA
Then we have some tougher fixtures, but I feel very optimistic
 
Can hardly wait 2 and a half more hours for this. Looks like we will have a near fully fit first XI playing. We should really take it to them from the first whistle. Tanguy to play a big part today! COYS

I think we're going to utterly smash them and embarrass them.

They need it tbh because all I keep hearing about is their "resurgence" and hearing that twat Wayne Rooney trying to get United to tap up Kane and their manager doing the same thing just shows how classless they are.
 
If we are winning when the final whistle blows then I think we have a reasonable chance of snatching a draw with a bit of luck
 
Wow! Bit early to claim Kane is past it just in case he goes next summer innit?
You'll find it's not what I said. First, he won't go to United, even if they were to offer 200mil, which they likely wouldn't/couldn't. Levy is a lot of things and I don't always agree with his decisions, but he surely wouldn't sell Harry to United when he could sell him to Real or Barca for the same money...or more...and likely get some quality players from them in return on top of that. So yeah I was just imagining what would possibly happen if the deal was to get done and at such a ridiculous price. And I honestly reckon we'd fare better than Utd. Yes, losing Harry and everything he brings & means, not just his goals, would be terrible...esp to a direct competitor...but with 200+ mil you'd be able to sign some really, really good players. To replace aging Hugo & Toby for instance, but mainly our good-but-will-never-be-great guys like Sanch, Dier, Winksy...as well as our benchers like Coco, Siss. And if CV really is the crack a lot of experts say he is, plus Troy really is the new Harry...you wouldn't even need to splash on a new striker. Yeah, United would get one of the very best No 9 in the game, and yeah imagining him with Rash & Greenwood alongside him is a scary prospect. But that's still a great trio playing in front of a crap defense, which they wouldn't be able to reinforce after spending a fortune on Harry. And that's still a team managed by clueless Ole. And yeah, Harry has a bad injury record and far more often than not, it doesn't get any better as you get older...quite the opposite. But yeah, 28-32 are normally prime years for a striker.

All I'm saying really, is that selling him, even to United, wouldn't be the end for Spurs. He's a legend and always will be, but the club would not only survive, it would thrive. With all the injuries he's had over the years, we've already had to learn how to play without him and look at what we managed to achieve. Same when Bale left.

I'd be far more worried if Harry went Liverpool or City than Utd.

Rooney (and a lot of other people at that shit club) are still under the impression that they can attract whoever they want. Those days are a distant memory now and originated when they were dominating the league and collecting silverware for fun.
It's just done these days to try and stir up trouble and get media coverage. Pathetic really but also a sign of just how desperate they have become.
Let's do them over good style today !
:coys:
 
Man U are achieving nothing with that charlatan in charge. Fortunately his status within the club means he's not going to be fired for a while.

It's going to be years before they're really challenging for the league again, but the size of their fanbase means they always have to be talked up as on the verge of being back to how they used to be.
 
I woke up and my phone was giving me an alert about the ladies being down 1-0 at half to City (just saying Tottenham v Manchester weirdly). I was rather unhappy for a minute.

Not sure you can describe them as fully fit after the mins the main players have put in this week. Tiredness is bound to be an issue especially mentally if things go against us.
