Fun going into this fixture as underdogs..

Spurs have been favourites for a few years now. Less pressure for the game watchers to expect nothing from the game.. the day can only be better.

There's underdogs and there's literally handicapped to the point it's not worth playing the game.
Without Richarlison, Bissouma, Kulusevski, Bentancur and 2 decent CB's, we're fucked.

Reincarnation, karma is not a short line.

If you are greedy in life, maybe you come back as a Pig?

If you create good karma in this life, you may experience “heaven“ after death (some believe you have God potency, which remains until the Karma you created has been worn out, hence Buddha/Jesus stay heavenly, as theirs cascades down ages) if you stay clinging to materialism/samsara you come back to do it over again.

The Buddhists have tremedously complex texts, beliefs, regarding this. In Christianity reincarnation was part of the Bible(s) until it was removed (4th Century? Can’t recall) according to a friend who taught religious history’s at Degree level.

Not sure the exact truth, but am pretty sure it’s real.

The more I understand about reality, the more 'solipsist' things get, so you may have a point. But you may also be fucking nuts. I like the idea of Karma, though. And Trump is definitely coming back as a prostitute.

Also have no faith that Son will produce anything in this game but no chance he doesn't start.

As long as Kulu is back we will have a shot but it will be he and Kane doing all the work.

If it is Gil-Kane-Son I will worry.

We need Richy back asap.

How the fuck "no chance he doesn't start" .
He is harmful to us - it is not about lack of positive impact. For quite some time it is EXISTENCE OF NEGATIVE IMPACT.
His inability to press from the front foot, coupled with him losing ball, failing to dribble and having poor pass completion stats - having Son (in current form) on the field is deathblow to our chances of getting anything.

Even if Gil is not scoring or assisting too much, he keeps opposition under pressure. From Son side, Arsescum and all other teams can virtually walk upfield and orchestrate attacks from the deep. And that fucks our defense and midfield as well.

Enough of starting with 10 men.

He would be much more useful to bring on from the bench. Imagine that fear factor when you have been running around for 60 minutes and THEN you have race with Son on your hand. But from the get go, no one is afraid of him this day unfortunately.

When travelling, mid 90’s, met a guy who had been travelling since the 70’s.

He asked the group if we believed in Karma. Gave a couple of scenarios he had encountered and asked us all what we’d have done in his place.

He helped a young Japanese guy, in a remote region in India, who had his money stolen. When he travelled to Japan a year or so later he called the guy he had helped, his father answered and said “you are the man who saved my Son from that terrible place, how can I repay you?”

This guy said “it’s fine he repaid me the money I lent him”

The father said “No, you saved my Son, I must repay you”.

Then for the next 15-20years, he went to Japan every January to work for two weeks, designing flyers for an Antiques Auction the father ran yearly, this two weeks work paid him enough to travel the rest of the year!

He had more stories, where people would have induced negative Karma by their actions, really struck me.

Might publish it on Pubmed?

Met a guy in Thailand who claimed the universe looked after him and all his decisions were based on “feeling”.

When we met he was staying at a house up a lane he had just decided to drive up. Chatted to him for a few hours. He had owned a jewellery business once upon a time and now made jewellery in exchange for kindness!

Decided he was probably just an international jewel smuggler or drugs courier.

He was a very good advert for a vegetarian and yoga/ Pilates driven lifestyle.

And the “universe” story has always stuck in my mind.

Uh, what about ignoring..?

Bookies have Woolwich as a clear favourite. Certainly going to put a 20 on us!
My only worry is that Conte is going to be overcautious. If we put in our usual 1st half performance, we won't win. We have to attack from the outset and scare the crap out of them. This game is very winnable but only if our tactics are right. Press, press, press...!
