Tottenham Hotspur v Aston Villa - Pre match thread

[Toronto Villa]

Just watched Kmac's press conference on AVTV. Lord help us.

He's not the most inspiring is he? Then again Sherwood often said a lot of the right things and it ended up a load of bollocks. I just pray he's saying the right things and picking the right team for Monday. We don't need to be in a bigger hole than the one the previous manager left us in.

Pellegrini and Wenger never appear very inspiring in their conferences.

They seem smart though. At least Wenger does.

[olaftab]

Ahaa yes but different argument.

Chivers. Martin bloody Chivers ! I hate you !
Nice one Cyril ?  Spurs are on their way to Wembley ? Bloody awful songs, even by the standards of football songs !
At least we showed Rikki and Ossie when we did Tottingham that night 4-1 ! Stick that up yer Junta !
Hate White Hart Lane, hate cocknees, hate Alan bloody Sugar. The Lilywhites ? What sort of bloody nickname is that !
Worst club in London apart from most of the others. Gascoigne, Lineker, Mullery, Gilzean, bloody Perryman...hate the lot of you.

The result Monday ? I'm past bloody caring !

0-1 Gesteke with a late winner after being bombarded for 82 minutes

The Lilywhites ? What sort of bloody nickname is that !

If memory serves, their nickname comes from a product women stick in their knickers to catch piss.

So what you're saying is that they're a bunch of half soaked ******?

Fuck it, go for it.  Would rather lose and be seen to look to win that park the bus and know that, once Spurs score, we've got no chance of getting back in to the game. Subs: Gabby, Veretout, Gestede, Lescott, Bunn, Crespo, Westwood.

[Toronto Villa]

Blimey what formation is that?

Just those little tweaks for me!

It's the 4-2-3-1 that the modern day Manager raves about.

and its a good one which of course means KMac will select Agbonlahor and ten others in a formation that will be hard to fathom.
