No I don’t mate. Our record at the Emirates is horrendous. We barely ever get results there. Played 15 and won 1 game at the Emirates tells me we won’t be getting a result.

We have attacking options in Kane, Son, Gil, Lucas, NDombele and others… if those guys step up and play to their potential, it’s more than enough to cause the goons trouble. Our own mentality is our biggest hurdle. Can we be motivated and focused to succeed?
That team is totally reliant on Tanguy to progress the ball forward and we can't do that. We can't play 3 at the back unless one of Skipp/Hojbjerg gets much better at progressing play than they have been so far.
If Tanguy can keep it going for 70 minutes plus, then I think we may nick it.
Okay fair. accepted.
I must have been dreaming that night when 6,000 Spurs celebrated long into the night after the Cup win…
I think we can get by Woolwich with Emerson, Tanguy, Reggie, Kane and Son moving the ball. Skipp and Hojbjerg also make a few long balls each game that are underrated.
Any other attacking options depending on Lo Celso or Dele moving the ball and that hasn’t been happening.
I think we will win this one comfortably. Happy that tonight’s game went straight to penalties but got some more minutes into the legs of Kane & Ndombele. I was a bit worried that Nuno was willing to forfeit Sunday to put one over on his former employers.
But woolwich are shit and we need to put some points between us again. Hopefully we can stick a few past them to get their GD back in serious shit

Rested against Wolves = Lloris, Royal, Dier (except one minute) Reguilon, Hojbjerg (except for 8 minutes), Rodon, Son, Scarlett.
So at least 6 starters are fresh from tonight
So those who played tonight likely to play v Woolwich ,maybe Romero, Skipp, Ndombele, Kane, Gil
And maybe Moura back from injury ?
Could be a lot worse.

They’re all fucken legends I say…mostly annoying, still legends
They have Saka and Tierney down their left side. Tanganga did enough to keep his place in my opinion, and Hojbjerg needs to help him out.
Lloris
Tanganga, Dier, Romero, Reguilon
Hojbjerg Skipp, Dele
Ndombele
Kane Son
Tanganga, Dier, Romero, Reguilon
Hojbjerg Skipp, Dele
Ndombele
Kane Son
I've put Tanganga as RB as the stronger defensive RB, although he played (well) against Wolves. The more fresh Royal could play RB and be more attacking, but that might require more defensive work from Skipp and Hojbjerg when Royal or Reguilon join the attack to provide more creativity to Kane and Son.
Dele can tackle (unlike Ndombele) s can support defence but better at sliding passes forward.
Subs : (from) Gollini, Royal, Davies, Doherty, Rodon, Sanchez, Lo Celso, Moura (if not injured still), Gil, Scarlett
Almost Certainly Injured (?) - Sessegnon, Bergwijn
If Ndombele doesn't play we're going to get dominated - simple as that
What a sight that was dele alli dinking over cech to make it 2 nil in front of 9000 spurs fans....and just before xmas as well. Beautiful.
