A draw will be a great result to keep the momentum moving.

1-1 Benteke.

Draw away followed by a couple of home wins will do us just fine.

The one I really want to win is boxing day against the deluded arrogant tossers. Why are all spurs fans ars*hol*s?

Its not so much that he's woken up but that they're finally playing to his strengths. Before, the likes of Oscar, Mata and Hazard were playing it into his feet so that they could get the ball back. He's not a hold up player. Now they're playing the ball into space for him to run onto and he's looked a totally different player as a result.

I think we'll get a draw tomorrow. What is most important is the performance and that we carry on being committed to the overall plan and vision. If we can get through this game and Spurs unbeaten it will really hold us in great stead for what appears a very decent run of games.

Our responses to the inevitable crap about their extremely luck euro cup win

When we won the cup
when we won the cuuuup
we were Champions
when we won the cup


you only drew in the final
drew in the final
you only drew in the final


Just reply "Plastic Champions of Europe" or "You bought the trophy"...something like that.  I genuinely don't accept them as a proper European Cup winning team.

The Guardian really is growing on me

Best football coverage, IMO.

Teams with money, spend money. If Randy suddenly gave us 200m to spend over the next couple of seasons then we wouldn't say no.

They aren't. All fans have some a-holes as fans but I know a lot of decent Spurs fans (mostly family).
I still want to beat them more than other teams though, due to most of the family supporting them.

A flat performance after an excellent couple of weeks.

2-0 Chelsea.

I'd rather smash Spurs than Chelsea and think it might be more likely too. 2-1 to the Blose.
